SARAFINA.
I can't explain the sudden change of the atmosphere. I can't explain how the air suddenly becomes so thick with desire.
I don't even understand how this is happening. One minute Jamal is telling how he can't feel, how he has been cursed his entire life...
And then like a flash he is kissing me like is life depended on it, and stupidly enough... I'm kissing him back.
Yes —Stupidly enough...
Because no matter how much this kiss affects me.
No matter the emotions it stirs up inside me
No matter the realization dawning on me now, that I might be in love with him. That I am so foolish enough to have fallen for Prince Jamal.
I have to remember that he is no least affected, because Jamal can't feel.
Jamal is cursed and he can't even understand my em

﹏﹏﹏﹏SARAFINA.I stop running when I get to the front of the maid quarters. I close my eyes as I try to catch my breath, placing my hands on my knee as I do so.I stand upright after some seconds, running my hands through my hair I glance around and my eyes catch Pooja coming my way. "And here is the princess' maiden" she drawled sarcastically as she got to me.I laughed."Pray tell me dear friend, how was your first day with our noble princess" she continued.I laughed again. "You are an hopeless case" I tell her. She flicked her hair to the back dramatically and patted me."So they say, so they say" she replied me. I shake my head at and start walking inside, but Pooja grab my hands and start to study my face. I move back immediately, swatting her hand away."Pooja what is it again?" I asked her. She looked around and then whispers to my ear. "You look you just got kissed".My eyes widen in surprise and I immediately to

﹏﹏﹏﹏Immediately Mila sneaked back into the palace, she hurriedly changed back into her royal wears and got out of her chambers as if she had been there the whole time, so that the palace won't suspect a thing.As she made her way out of her chambers, she kept pondering over the decision she had made. It is too late to regret right? Especially when the deed has been done. But Mila is regretting now, especially when she knows that someone like Naja does not deserve the death that awaited her.As she walked around the palace ground, her eyes sighted Jamal running towards the maid quarters. His stance looked frantic. What is he looking for? She grabbed up her gown and ran to him."Jamal!!" She called out and he stopped without facing her."Jamal" she called again, turning him to face her, only for her to receive the greatest shock of her life.Jamal's face is wet, wet with tears... Jamal is crying?. She didn't know whether t

﹏﹏﹏﹏SARAFINA.Fearfully, I follow the palace guard with Pooja trailing behind me. I am scared because I don't know what to expect. Why am I being called? Does she know I am the Sheba? If she does, how am I going to save Jamal?We get to the throne room and we enter inside. The guards stop Pooja from entering inside. The first thing I notice as we enter inside is Jamal laying sprawled on a mat. Panic grips me and I momentarily forget where I am as I rush to his side."Jamal!" I call, shaking him slightly... He does not answer."Jamal" I call yet again but there is no reply.I come back to my senses when I hear the queen say. "He is unconscious". I spring up from beside him and move back, bowing repeatedly to the queen as I do so." I never knew you were this close to my son, enough to call him by his name" The Queen said, I keep my head bowed."I apologize for my disrespect" I reply her."Were you with Jama

﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏SARAFINA."Mother !!" I scream, shaking her body. "Ammi !! Kripaya! Don't go please""She is gone already" I hear the queen say and my head whips up to her. Fury clouds my thoughts as I stare at her."You killed my Ammi" I said and stood up, my voice hoarse from tears. She moves back fear evident in her eyes."No Sarafina.. Don't think like that... I did not." She paused."You killed my Ammi !" I yell, instinctively my fist clenches.... Hard. She falls to the floor holding her neck."S..to..p" She chokes out."Stop" she chokes again. I don't understand because I am not doing anything."Unclench your fingers" I hear Abu say from behind me. I turn."What?""Unclench your fingers and reduce your rage... You are choking her unknowingly" He adds.I unclench my fingers and take a deep breath. Queen Mila sighs as she stands up. "Clear the corpse" She says to a guard who had just entered.

DITYA.I lay on my bed, different ideas of how I was going to deal with that Sarafina girl on my mind.I conclude that I have to meet Maximus... I refused his offer to help me become the Queen of Zedora when he came to Pecan, but now I really need his help.I sighed.I was still trying to have my beauty nap when Insia entered suddenly. I sat up swiftly. "Why will you barge into my room like that !!" I yelled angrily at her.She went on her knees instantly and pressed her palms together. "I'm sorry princess but there is a news from the main palace" she said breathlessly."A news? What is it about?" I asked, my ears piquing with curiosity.She nodded and stood up. "The... The prince fell unconscious yesterday afternoon" she stammered."What!" I exclaimed as I stood up, throwing over my blanket, slipping my feet impatiently into my flops. "Why am I just hearing this? Why! !!""I think the Queen did not want to

﹏﹏﹏﹏ SARAFINA. They say keep your friends close and your enemies closer right? Well I'm sure going to put that adage to work now. I smiled sweetly at Jafar. "Why the exclamation? Can't I see your father?" I asked. "No, actually I —" he started to say but I cut him off. "Didn't you say something about weighing your chance the last time we met or have you forgotten?" I asked twirling my hair. He bit his lips and then sighed. "Fine let's go meet my father" he said. I smiled again, throwing my arms around his neck. He stopped and looked at my hands on his neck. "Aren't you being less of Sarafina today?" He asked, raising his brows curiously. "Less of Sarafina?, what's that supposed to mean..." He shrugged. "You know, the Sarafina I know isn't as carefree as this one standing beside

TEN HOURS EARLIER.Sarafina could not sleep as she lay on her bed. She has done the right thing hasn't she? But who was she deceiving. She knows she is wrong. She should not let her plan of revenge get in her way of helping Jamal. She had to do something about it.Sarafina looked at her sleeping roommates, they were sound asleep and they would not realize that she left. She sat upright and placed her palm facing upwards on her lap, she then closed her eyes and willed herself to be taken into Jamal's room.She opened her eyes as she found herself on his room, he was laying peacefully as if he was only asleep and not that he was half dead. She moved to his bed and sat quietly on it as she stared at him.Jamal, the only man she has come to love all her life, only that he could not be hers. Apart from being worlds apart she had to avenge her mother's death which means his own mother will be affected.She did not want him to get to a point

_____________Mila stared at Abu impatiently, why is he not saying anything? Since he arrived he has been quiet and kept staring into space."Abu, you haven't said a word... What is wrong with my son" she inquired.Abu twitched his lips slightly and stared at Mila. Hard."She was here" he finally said. Mila narrowed her eyes with a puzzled look. By she did he mean... "Sarafina?""Obviously, she cured your son even though it wasn't a thorough cure, there is still one thing that needs to be done""Sara? Sarafina cured my son" Mila asked. She was surprised, after her path in the death of the girl's mother death, Mila didn't think she would help Jamal again. But apparently she just did."Well, love is no respecter of choices, is it? She had to make a choice without thinking of your evil act.... And you must still know that this is not the end yet... He has not been cured fully""What else is to be done?" Mila pr

JAMAL."We found something unusual" Khan stated once we got to the front of Maximus chambers."Don't tell me he fled the city" Appa said."Nothing like that" Khan replied."Get me out of here! Tell that wench to let me go this instant!"I pushed open the door and entered to find Maximus struggling on a chair but nothing was tying him down.I huffed. This is strange, but wait! I instantly turned to my left to find Jafar laying sprawled on the floor in a pool of blood with a knife plunged to his belly."Jafar!" I yelled getting down on my knees beside him. "You did this to your son, didn't you?" I yelled at Maximus who was staring me with a smirk on his face. I felt Jafar's pause.. It was so low, you would think it wasn't there."Thankfully he is still alive, get him to the clinic fast" I ordered as the guards lifted him up and took him out.Appa stalked towards Maximus. "Seems like someone was here before us

SARAFINA.Okay, I think right now is the time for a little drama, that's the only way I can stop them. I ran to the front of the carriage, cleared my throat and started screaming. "Stop! Stop this carriage! Stop it right now! The prince thinks he can get me pregnant and then get married to a princess huh? I will never allow that, over my dead body will I give birth to a fatherless child" The guards at the gate immediately tried to grab me, thankfully they didn't recognize me because of the burqa on my face."What is wrong with you maiden, don't you have any shame huh?" One of them asked as he got hold of my hand. I swung hack and kneed him in his dick, he doesn't know that I have thrown shame to the wind because I have to save the royal house."Tell the prince to come down, or I will go out into the festival and yell it out to the whole Zedora, and I will kill myself and the baby in addition" I screamed."Are you crazy, leave the way now!"

Jafar stormed into his Father's chambers in annoyance, breathing heavily he slammed the door shut. Maximus sat on his couch, sipping his wine. "And what brings you to my court, son?" He drawled at Jafar. "You know exactly why I am here Father!" Jafar replied in a loud tone, anger brewing off from him. "Why did you tell Ditya to call off her engagement with Jamal? And why is she getting married to me?" He yelled. "You heard the news? Then get ready to be a groom to be, I got you some suitable attires, you should try them on" "Father! What is all this about? First you wanted Sarafina off the page, now you are getting me married to Ditya without saying a word to me! Are you sure this is all for me or for your own selfish reason because I am clearly tired and I can't do this anymore" Jafar shouted. Maximus sprang up. "You said what?" "

SARAFINA."Hey sleepy head, get up get up" Pooja yells into my ear while I roll away from her, placing my hands over my ear."Get off my face Mohini and let me get some sleep" I grumbled."Not on my watch lady, now get your ass up we have a festival to attend"I sprang up. "Are you telling me we've spent two days already in this desert with a creepy guardian and only tropical winter fruits to our poor stomach""Exactly my point! Besides Marielle has practically disappeared since our first night here so minus the creepy guardian, everything you just listed is absolutely the situation here... And oh you smell like shit, you should take your bath too because you have done nothing but sulk on that same spot for the past two days" Poojs remarked."Shut up" I snapped rolling my eyes as she made her way out. Does she really have to remind me of how pathetic I have been when I keep thinking of Jamal. It's not my fault actually, it is t

JAMAL.If mother wasn't unconscious on my hand, I would have started a celebratory dance right away, I didn't want to get married to her anyway and she had just saved me the pressure of having to rack my brain for a suitable excuse to give for breaking off the engagement, only that why doesn't this feel right?"Hey take care of my mother, I would be back in a minute" I said to the maids and lay Ammi quietly on her bed, I grabbed Ditya's hands and pulled her outside, once we were safely out of earshot I released her hands and turned to her."What was that?" I ask, she stepped back and looked around, it was then I noticed tears in her eyes."Are you okay?" I asked, she shook her head and moved closer to me she looked around again and slipped a folded paper into my hands."Please, don't open it until you are alone, it is nothing harmful just don't open it until you are alone" she whispered and hurried away. I looked down at my folded fin

JAMAL.Getting out in my carriage was absolutely a bad idea because immediately people saw it they all started running helter-skelter, I sighed. "Was the petition dropped yesterday before the happenings at the council?" I asked Khan referring to the petition that I made to allow the commoners see me when they want to."Yes it was, though I don't think the king would be able to look over it because of the current situation" he replied."Okay, then let me have a word with the indigines""Now? Like right now?" He asked in a surprised tone."Yes right now, you have a problem with that?""Of course not" he replied immediately and told the coachman to stop. I got down from the carriage and waited, there was no soul in sight they had all run away."Is this really necessary my prince, there is no indigene standing... You can gave a talk with them at the festival of the rain" Khan reasoned.I clicked my tongue. "The festiv

SARAFINA. We enter the cottage and to our surprise it is already lighted. "It doesn't seem seem to be deserted" Pooja observed after looking around. "That's what I see, only that who would this place in the middle of an abandoned area?" "You are here, Sarafina Belaird" we heard a voice from behind—startling us both, we immediately turn to see an old lady standing at the entrance, a bag on her hand and a weird smile dancing on her lips. "But you didn't come alone as I see it" she added, closing the door behind her. I take step back from her. "Who are you and how do you know me?" "How do I know you?" She repeated my question and sat. "Well I know a lot of things that you can't even imagine, but you should have a seat first" she waved her hands and two wooden seats appear before us. Pooja gasped from b

SARAFINA."Fina! Fina!" Pooja yelled slamming the door shut as she entered, her voice sounded frantic so I dropped the potatoes I was peeling and rushed out of the kitchen."Hey, what's wrong" she was breathing heavily so she tried to steady her breath then she moved closer to me and pulled me back into the kitchen. I got confused."Fina, they are coming for you" she finally said. I didn't understand her, who is coming for me and why?."What are you talking about?""The council meeting, it went off the grid, The diviner was there and he said for Jamal to be completely whole you have to be sacrificed" she said in one breath.I stared at her for a while before I then threw my head back in laughter. I stopped laughing and looked back at her. "Wait, you are not joking are you?""Do I look like I'm joking Sarafina? Maximus is leading the guards down here, they are going to take you to the sacred room, and you will be sacrific
