Fiona almost dropped a plate of soup on Amina. “Please be careful,” Amina said to Fiona.
“I am so sorry,” Fiona apologized.
“Do your job properly. That is my son’s future wife, you need to be careful around her,” the queen shouted at Fiona.
“My apologies, it was not intentional.”
“This is why I don’t want her around you. She doesn’t seem to know how to do her job,” the queen said to her son. Fiona felt annoyed. She hadn’t dropped the soup on Amina and yet the queen was making a big deal out of it. There was no need. Fiona went to the kitchen with the dishes.
“I do not want a new caregiver,” Fiona heard Daniel say to his mother as she re-entered the dining room. Fiona raised her eyebrows. Daniel had never said anything when his mother had been nasty towards Fiona.
“The current one you have is not good at her job and you know that I do not like her.”
“Fiona is doing just fine, please do not interfere with my personal matters.” Daniel sounded quite stern. Fiona had never heard him use such a tone when speaking to his mother. Fiona put the glasses and cutlery on the tray.
“I just want what is best for you,” the queen replied. Fiona felt awkward hearing their conversation as she cleared the table. She headed towards the kitchen.
“I am tired now, please leave,” said Daniel.
Fiona waited until the queen and Amina had left his quarters before she went to find Daniel. He was sitting at his sofa in his bedroom getting ready to play his guitar. He looked up when Fiona walked in.
“Ignore my mother,” he said to her. As if that was simple to do. It was his mother and the queen. Fiona had to listen to her and tread carefully. She did not want to anger her.
“I can’t do that.” Fiona approached Daniel and stood in front of him.
“I am not going to marry Amina.”
Fiona raised her eyebrows. Why did he feel the need to clarify? “Huh?” she said.
“It strains my neck to look up when I am speaking to you.”
“Huh?” Fiona was getting really confused. Daniel grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him. Fiona screamed as she landed on his lap. “Oh my God!” she cried out and looked at Daniel. She felt very shy and awkward. She was sitting on Daniel’s lap and he didn’t seem to have any intentions of making her get up. He wrapped one arm around her waist and touched the back of her neck with the other hand. He gently pulled her closer to him and pressed his lips against hers.
Daniel kissed her again before parting her lips with his. He gently and slowly kissed her. Fiona could feel his muscular chest against hers. He smelled so good and his soft lips felt good.
