JAMAL.
Today is the council meeting, I have decided to attend it, though I don't know if I have ever taken part in the past but yet something keeps telling me to attend this one.
I wasn't able to talk to Ammi yesterday but I will make sure I do today because I can't loose Sarafina. I shrugged on my clothes and opened my door, surprisingly I found mother standing at the front.
"Ammi, what are you doing here?" I asked.
"I'm coming in" she said and closed the door behind her, she finally looked at me and a look of surprise crossed her face. "You are attending the council meeting?" She asked.
"Of course" I nodded. "Or is there a reason why I shouldn't?"
"No, not at all" she answered immediately. "Actually I came to check up on you, I didn't know you would be going for the meeting"
"As long as I agreed to help father then I should know some things about running the kingdom"
"You've really changed" she muttered inaudibl

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?

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

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

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

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

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.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!"

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.
