The happy end

“Aish” I sigh and swipe the alarm to snooze. It buzzes again, I roll on the bed a few times and finally sit up.
The sun was about to raise in a few minutes. I rush to the restroom and fresh up for the day.
‘Today is another day we get to spend with our family' my brain says excited. It wasn’t many months ago when I believed that I would always remain alone on this planet with just my sweet buddy Oliver. But now I not only have I met my biological parents but also have a beautiful twin who chirps in my ear almost every second calling me sis. Such a blessing my life is.
I stroll down the stairs quietly after hoping into a hoodie and jean; my regular casual outfit. Mom was already in the kitchen preparing food
“Good morning mom” I wish her
“Good morning love” mom greets me back and opens her arms. I rush into them and embrace her. After a brief hug we withdraw “How did you sleep Laura?” Mom questions me
“Very well. Didn’t even feel like waking up” I complained sighing
“But the suns out and you need to get busy” mom says grabbing the knife and chops the spring onions
I nod adjusting myself on the kitchen table
“What are you cooking mom?” I question slowly. It was mom’s turn today to cook
“It’s a surprise” she winks
“Well then. I would have to call upon my friend Patience to keep me company” I say
“Definitely. Now get going and do something useful” mom instructs me and shoos me out of the kitchen chair.
I walk into dads office. He usually wakes up before all of us to make important business decisions.
I knock on his door
“Come in Laura” he calls out. I was the third to wake up in the house so dad could very well guess it would be me.
“Good morning dad” I greet him as I enter
“Good morning Laura” dad greets me from behind the table
I sit on the chair and stare at dad. He notices it and smiles
“Have you made up your mind?” he asks
“Yes dad. I have” I smile
“What about Daniel?” he questions me
“I haven’t spoken to him since last night dad and I made my decision in the morning” I reply
“Is that what you the option you want to choose from?” he interrogated again like an officer
“Yes dad. I want to go to college and study medicine” I stress repeating every detail from the conversation we had earlier.
“The path is not going to be easy Laura. I know you have faced a very bumpy road previously I just want you to know that this is not gonna be easy either” dad speaks expressing concern through his eyes.
“I know dad and its time I find my real identity” I try to convince him
“Perfect then. I will definitely support you my dear girl” he says
“And Daniel wouldn’t be returning anytime soon either, right. Learning to be a professional jockey takes time” I say
“Yes Laura it does but not as much as it takes for an individual to become a doctor” dad warns me
“Dad I wanna be a surgeon” I smile
“It’s a commitment for a very long period. Are you willing to honestly do it?” He asks in a serious tone and an erect posture
“I am willing dad” I reply
“Alright then. I support you entirely Laura” he says smiling
“Thanks Dad” I smile back “Fighting dad” I bump my fist in the air wishing him for the day and leave
“Mom, is Jessica awake?” I ask going back to the hall
“Morning sis” She chirps
“You heard her Laura” mom replies me
“Yes mom I did” I walk to them.
Jessica sits rubbing her eyes with her fingers still in her night frock.
“Did you sleep well, Jess?” I ask jumping on the couch
“Not a bit” she sighs and gets up from the kitchen table and walks to the couch; in my direction. She drops back on the couch from the sides and lands her head on my lap.
I stare at her, she gives me an innocent smile “Sis, lemme sleep here”
“Nope. I need to go fill application forms” I tell her
She smiles “You’ve decided?”
“Yup. I’m certain this time. I want to be a doc” I tell
“Wonderful. Let’s fill the forms together then” she replies
“You’re doing medicine too? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” I ask confused
“No sis. I’m doing law” she replies sitting up “Why won’t you let me sleep in peace?” she sighs
“The sun has rose” I quote mom’s favourite statement
“Yeah yeah I know” she shakes her hands in the wind to stop me
“Girls, let’s go on vacation” mom says taking off her apron
“Vacation?” we chorus
“But Daniel and Miler aren’t here” Jessica questions as Daniel decided to stay with his jockey club to learn better and quick. Miler had joined the military not too long ago.
“I know sweetheart, we’ll have a trip with the entire family and Oliver too when they’re all back. For now let’s just enjoy ourselves. I’ve already spoken to Justin” mom says
“Where are we going?” I ask mom
“Make a guess” mom tilts her face and crosses her arms
“Please not to Bazoda” Jessica and I almost cry together
“Exactly that place” mom giggles and walks away
“Mommmmaaaaa” we stretch
“What? Pack your bags” mom walks away
“Do you wanna go?” I question Jessica when mom’s out of hearing range
“Nope. That’s the last place I wanna visit” she sighs dropping her head on the couch to stare at the roof
“Neither do I” I say
“Sis, let’s pretend to be sick” she creates a master plan
I sigh “How many times have we already got caught”
“Why are you both still here?” mom questions returning from her room.
“We don’t want to go” I speak with lots of courage
“Alright then. We’ll leave alone to Paris” mom speaks casuslly
“To paris?” Jessica repeats
“Yes” mom giggles
“Paris? The capital of France?” I ask
“umhunn” mom buzzed
“France? The country in Europe? Jessica questions next
“I think it is” mom replies pressing her lips together
Jessica and I look at each other for a brief second and speak “Europe that’s on Earth?”
“Yes girls. The city that’s on earth” Dad says giggling as he approaches us from his study room
“We’re coming” We almost yell and run to our rooms
“I wonder why you two dislike Bazoda so much” mom sighs as we rush
We don’t reply and hurry into our rooms to pack our luggage.
After 15 minutes to be exact, I run down the stairs with a large suitcase and a bag
“I’m ready” I say
“Me too” I hear Jessica speak hurrying down the stairs with a suitcase and bag; just as me
“Let’s have breakfast first then” dad speaks and we walk to the table
“So what’s on mom’s cuisine today?” Jessica questions
“I’ve tried the japanese Sushi today” mom giggles at her own ideas
“Wow. I can’t wait to taste it” Jessica says tapping the folk on the table.
“I’m afraid you can’t use that Jess” I say pointing at her folk
“I know sis” she replies and stares at the colourful rolls on our plate
I take a bite first
“Its good” I say chewing and clap my hands
“Agreed” dad comments after having a bite
Mom smiles “What do you think sweetheart?” questioning Jessica
“Its good” she says grabbing another roll
Mom tries it too and nods agreeing with us.
Although I met my family at a later stage in life, I learnt to believe in the unexpected. If I had not grew up at Zeon, I wouldn’t have known the value of a day with my family and if not for the unexpected trip to Bazoda; I might never have believed that blood is thicker than water and although I fell in love with two kind hearts; for whom I wish only the best in this life; they taught me bonding can be made with strangers too and Oliver; my bestie who stood by me throughout my days at Zeon only made me love life more. Daisy; a wicked princess wouldn’t have ended up the way she did if not for greed and the injustice her brother did to her just for power and prestige. On the whole, in my 18 years of rollercoaster life I experienced and fell in love with many things most importantly, the reason to be grateful for the happenings in our life. We may not know the reason now but as times goes everything will unfold as great lessons learnt.
Dear Reader

The Lost Destiny The good friend
The chill breeze along with the sparking rays of the raising sun brought a red and bright shade to my closed eyes. I could feel the very lively surroundings and smell my freedom that was almost achieved. Just as I was about to my eyes I could feel the tiny weed saplings tickle my leg with the winds force. The smell of nature was so lovely that I would do no matter what it takes to never return to 'Zeon orphanage'. I take a deep breath and open my eyes ready for today's fight, Armed with strength and confidence yet no physical weapons. I look around and all I see is greenery and a beautiful sight.At 'Zeon, all I could see was the cemented walls. The only day I could see light was when the investors came by and the management wanted to deceive them. My friends, orphans like me would do anything to get out of there but luckily I made it.

Jessica hurries to the table I was seated in with a worried expression.'I don't think we're on earth' I speak first before she could even get seated.'Yes I found the same facts although its the same calender year''Where are we, if not on earth?' I ask again.'I suggest that this is a parallel universe. We might have entered it when we touched the silver wall in the tunnel.''So the tunnel is a portal?' I find myself speaking again.'Yes, seems like it' Says Jessica puzzled.'Do you have dome cash on you? i'm hungry''Let's buy something but its not much. Just a little of my savings''Thank you Jessica. Once we're energized let's decide on our schedule.'We order the least priced food on the menu and decide to leave the restaurant with a bottle of water and some packed snacks for the night ahead. It's half past six in the evening when we leave the restaurant.

As the dust settles we notice that we've been surrounded by'Wolves?' jessica and I speak simultaneously confused. We look for a way out as the last thing we wanted was to die in a foreign universe and a prey to wolves.'Stop. We need to talk' We hear it again. We look around for a human but find no-one.'Who is talking?' I ask finally. A roar from one of the wolf drags our eyes to it. It is larger than the rest, with brown fur and grey eyes. It must be the alpha.'Did you find me now?' We hear again.'So you're communicating through our mind?' jessica asks mesmerised.'We wolves can talk to anyone we chose on our land through mind communication' explains the alpha.'Why do you want to speak to us?' I ask puzzled.'I don't like you both here, so i'm heard to warn you to return''And why is that?' asks Jessica.'You two don't belong to our world, and things that don't belong here are not welcomed.

I wake up earlier than usual on a sunday morning. Its just 5 am and i'm already ready for the day. I try to wake Jessica who looks at the time and rolls her eyes before covering her head with the quilt.'Its our last day here. We need to make it meaningful' I try to being her to consciousness.'The most meaningful thing I would lobe to do is sleep. Now get off my bed Laura' I hear from beneath the quilt.'You're hopeless. I'm heading downstairs.' I say and slam the door a little louder than required and hear a compressed scream from behind the door and walk down the stairs smiling on successfully annoying my only friend.I greet Grandma Liza and everyone else who were either knitting, playing chess, cards, reading a novel or painting some amazing landscapes. The kids were busy playing snake and ladder, word builder and a few of them were admiring the work of the elders. 'What a pleasant sight' I thought to myself. Maybe we could op

'Fiona accidentally entered a portal when she was 18, the Late princess was desperate to expand her power far and wide then and when She found out that Fiona didn't belong here she wanted to use her to gain power over the other universe as well. So the late princess made her train as one of her personal guards and Fiona was equally willing to accept the offer.' explains the princess in brief.'What happened then?' I ask'She served the late princess for two years and one day she started behaving like a maniac, as her soul in this world was facing an impact too. So we decided to open a portal and send her back to Earth.' she takes a deep breath and continues 'The late princess didn't want to let go of the oppertunity although she didn't know how to use Fiona to gain power over the other universe. She asked her to make a promise, that she would return anytime the late princess needed her' the princess sips on her tea and we look at her like desperate puppies. 'The wolves

We walk into the palace gate, through the screech of the metals, mentally prepared for what lies ahead.'Do you think she will hypnotize us into willingly sacrificing ourselves?' questions jessica.'Let's not talk about it here. I'm pretty sure she can hear us' I whisper and Jessica agrees. We walk through the creepy out-garden and knoch on the palace door; it was the right thing to do as we were an hour early than the appointment time. The large wooden doors opened automatically allowing the chill air to gush out from the inner palace. We get goosebumps due to its suddenness. The wind had a mix of earth and anxiety; the earth from from the dead and the anxiety was the two of us standing at the entrance of our unknown future.'Welcome, my lovely children. I've been eager for this moment ever since I met the two of you' we hear the late princess from the main area. We walk slowly towards the sound.'Greeting princess' I speak trying to so

The alpha followed by the pack walked heavily into the main area and questioned us again through the mind 'Have you both gone insane? How can you agree to her proposal?''Not this lowly animal again' says the late princess. 'I've had enough of your trash talk. Leave my grandchildren alone so we can go ahead with what we were doing earlier.''Did you forget the pact you made with the previous alpha? You swore you would not try to come back to life.' said the alpha following a howl.'And you lowly creatures swore to never intervene in my work' says the late princess by tilting her face and raising her left eyebrow.'We're here to warn you, princess. You need to stop!' stressed the alpha and we hear the words as clearly as someone spoke them out loud.'I don't need warnings from lowly creatures. Leave or I would have to force you out''Ma princess, please don't forget that its your greed brought you death.'

I could feel a gentle hand caressing my hair, 'who is it?' I thought to myself. 'Is it really mother? Did she resurrect? How long have I been gone? Is Jessica alright?' many questions flood my consciousness as I try to open my eyes, that first give me a blurred sight gradually adjusting to the scene. It was the late princess, she was sitting at the edge of the single mattress; I blink twice to make sure its her and exhale 'What are you doing here? Where is Jessica?' I question.'She's still unconscious Laura, you resemble your mother in many ways.''Did mother return?' I ask.'Not so soon dear. She will find her way here gradually''How long will it take?''It completely depends on her willingness to meet the two of you'I turn to the window and notice the sun was out shining 'How long was I unconscious?''Just a fee hours dear' says the late princess in a low voice.''Wait, how are you even

“Have a good life” Argon wises as I step out of the car.“I wish you the best life of your choice” I wish him back and walk to the palace. The guard has smiles and opens the gate for me; it wasn’t long ago when he didn’t let me enter without the residence card. Now he grew so familiar with me that he lets me enter as its my own place. But sadly I wouldn’t stay long here. I smile at the guard and enter the gates.The entire garden was in full bloom, every single flower was enjoying the sun rays to the fullest. The gardener smiled and greeted me. I greet them back and walk past them to enter the palace.“You’re back?” Jessica questions as I walk in“Guess I am” I nod and walk up to herShe grabs me into an embrace and almost crushes me, I try to crush her with my arms too. It felt stuffy, “Too tight” Jessica whispered panting and we withdrew at the same time lau

I want to feel how it is to have a family who cares” I feel my eyes blur with tears.“Laura, I don’t know what to say. I ca

My mouth tastes bitter and my head still stings. I open my eyes but my vision clears only after a couple of blinks. I roam my eyes on the ceiling before last night flashes back to me.“What happen?Did the promise nreak?Did Daisy die?What happen to mom?Is she here or did she leave already?Jessica, is she alright?” many questions swing around my head. I take a deep breath in and try to calm myself. I was on my bed in my room. Jessica wasn’t here which worried me more. I slowly sit up and look at the clock. It stroke 5.42am. I stand up and check if I felt any pain, but except in my head, there was no other uneasiness. I realise that there is no scar on my palm, the skin was clear and perfect; without a single stitch or scar. I stare at my palm for a couple of seconds before coming back to the reality.I rush to the restroom and splash some water on my face, tp assure myself I was really awake. The

There is something that needs immediate attention” Nella says and we nod smilingNella and Mr. White walks out of the dungeon room leaving only jessica and I with Daisy.“She looks so innocent now” Jessica speaks looking at Daisy’s face “We really can’t judge people by their appearance” she sighs“Very true Jess” I sigh sitting down on the cement bench.

Thank you”She smiles“Daisy will be here tonight at 3” I speak“How did you persuade her?” Nella asks“She wants to meet you” I hide away the reason as to why Daisy wants to meet her.“There are no relations in the palace, Laura. You don’t have to hide her motives” she says in a dull tone.Nella said the exact words of Daisy. She doesn’t deserve to die. She will be a good queen.“We will end her tonight” I assure NellaShe nods with empty eyes“You will be a
