SARAFINA.
The force of the slap sent me flying to the ground in no time. I blinked rapidly as tears stung my eyes. She came at me again and I closed my eyes expecting the hit but I got none.
I peeked through the corner of my eyes and saw Jamal holding her hands up, his eyes a dangerous gleam of fiery red.
"One more hit on her and you might not live to see the setting of the sun" Jamal said and I gasped.
"Jamal!!" Ditya screamed angrily as she freed her hands from his grip and moved back. I stood up from the ground and silently tried to leave.

"Sarafina, just keep quiet and follow me" he repl

"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.

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.
