Decision

"Aurora dear what have you decided?"

She turned to look at her aunt and her eyes were a better message to covey what words could not. She was quiet but she did not to show it all to her aunt.

"Dear in my life I have only wanted what was best for my child and I still do, however do you know what I strongly believe in is destiny. When time thinks it is right whatever is written in your destiny is bound to happen and no force except the one above can change that"

Josephine and Aurora were looking at each other, eyes conveying way more.

"One has watched you grow majority of my life. You have become a strong and independent young maiden. I wish to see you truly happy. I will never ask why you dislike them so much for I wish for you to tell me at your own time if and when you want. However when the prince came I felt something different. I have come across many but felt nothing like him, it is as if the lord is showing us the way Aurora."

Josephine carried on her voice containing emotion

"What I truly wish is for you to settle down despite me saying this to you numerous times. One wants to see her grandchildren run around the way I saw you, to be able to hear their laughter and cherish them. What more could I ask for when the time and opportunity has presented itself at our doorstep Aurora."

Aurora got up with the severe pain she just felt when the pickaxe was spun directly at her stone cold muscle with such force. Causing a profound dent to appear. Aurora could not stand it she quickly suppressed the feeling and cleared her eyes from any traces of agony. She pretended to sort out her top and sat back down.

Her aunt had expectations and she could see the evidence when she looked at Josephine she had an emotion that was crystal clear. But She wanted her to marry. She was holding on desperately clinging to a piece of cotton thread that had just withered from a shirt. And it hurt it hurt so damn bad that she felt like burning this sensation because it was getting unbearable day by day. what she didn't know or was rather unsure of was how long she could hold on but once again she swallowed and looked at her aunt with a small bright feeling less smile.

One thing she realised was that she would not or could not bear for her aunt to be in pain she wanted to do everything she could do in her power so her aunt could be happy in her life so she came to one conclusion.

"Dear aunt Josephine, one cannot comprehend for I was just about to tell you that we should deliver the positive news to the Castle"

"You..... oh really?, are you serious dear?"

Aurora nodded, Josephine was so happy she grabbed Aurora into a tight hug.

"Oh I am so happy for you my daughter, however I shall let you know that there is no pressure and you can take as long as you want to decide"

"My decision is final aunt."

Aurora looked outside the window getting painstakingly closer to the castle. They would have to give their answer.
