48 48. Consequences for your actions.

"Mother, father, why are you doing this to me? You can not do this to me. I am your daughter, your child! You can not marry me off to a barbarian. One who clearly has malice against me!" She just could not understand her parents' way of thinking! Seeing that her father had slapped and scolded her that day in front of the Tragonians, she had thought that he did that just for show, she thought he did that just to make it seem like he was mad at her in front of the Trago empire. And the fact that neither her mother, nor her father talked to her about the matter after that day only affirmed that theory.

But now, now she just did not know anymore. Now she could really feel it that her parents had no love for her. How else could they approve of such marriage even after the stunt she pulled? Could they not see that her life will be a torturous one if she ended up marrying prince Barak because of what she had done to him?
