THE KING

Unedited.

“y/n just go. Don't think about anything else.” karan shushed me, pulling down my hat covering my face. I adjusted my bucket hat properly which Jungkook had given me. This was the only thing which accompanied me all through the nights in the basement

. It made me weep looking at the hat, smile in tears with all the sweet memories which we shared together. His place is the only one which I feel would be safe, where I sent my parents. I hope they are feeling okay at an unknown place, but at least they are safe. That's all I need now.

Handing me my luggage, he pulled out something from his coat pocket,making me come out of my trance.

“Here this is your passport and the ticket. Just go. You will be safe there.” he placed a hand on my shoulder giving me a comforting look. All I had in my mind from yesterday was ‘escaping’. I want to be away from his evil clutches as soon as possible.

I fainted multiple times when I was there. Everytime I close my eyes for a second all I can remember is the rusty door and the walls of the dark room which only had a window at the top right corner of the large walls.

I don't want to ever go back to that place. It was the scariest memory of my life. My heart and could could only pacify once I got into the flight flying away from the country. And all I'm grateful now is for karan.

That day when i was at the hospital, i unknowingly met karan that day. He was there to meet his aunt who was hospitalized. That night karan secretly came to the room again and agreed to let out free. That's how I'm here now.

“Call me when you get there. Here.” slipping a phone into my hands, i quickly recognised it as his. “Keep it with you. Call me to the home’s landline or to Aksh. I'll be at his place.”

“Thank you for helping me.” I slid the phone into the pocket. “Come on, stop overreacting now. Where has my chatterbox gone? You go and come back in chatterbox mode!” he gave a small grin gently pushing you.

“Just be careful.” with that i turned around walking, thinking that i successfully got out of the eagles claw.

The little grumpy clucks left from his mouth as he thought something deeply. His mind is full of regretness. Half of it was filled with the regret that he selected a crazy psychopath for his daughter to marry off, and then living in the king's palace where the owner of it is in love with his daughter.
He just can't trust anyone now. His mind is a hassle to believe anything. He couldn't digest that he was about to give off his little girl to a psychopath. His guilty feeling kicked in everytime he thought about his little princess struggling alone.

“I wish you're alright sweetheart.” the man mumbled putting his hand on his chest where his heart was placed. He sighed in a low voice looking at the small plant garden from his room at the palace.

The light sunshine rays hit on the fresh light yellow and white daffodils. He smiled a little looking at them. The flowers which his daughter liked the most from her childhood. His lips lit up into a small smile with his glossy eyes when he remembered how y/n wanted him to plant them line by line in a unique shape.

His feet dragged him a little ahead to the garden, looking at them properly from the window. A low chuckle left his lips with the astonishment of the same arrangement, how his daughter wanted them to be. The memories of the past swept through his mind. He missed her. He missed spending time with his little one.

Turning around, he rushed out of the room to the garden to take a closer look as the emotions kicked in all through him. Mr. Roy passed through the hallways walking to the garden in long strides.

But his feet dragged him painfully slowly once he could see the fresh petals with the sunlight beaming through them. “They are pretty, aren't they?” a voice brought him out of the trance which he immediately recognised as his wifes.

She looked at him patting the space beside her on the bench. He smiled a little occupying the place, enjoying himself with the atmosphere. He remembered the days where he used to sit at the garden like this watching y/n playing in between the flowers.

“You remember? She wouldn't get bored when she used to play and dance in between the flowers.” a soft chuckle escaped through his mouth with his mind wandering to the different memories.

“It's really astonishing to find the same way the flowers are planted here, just the same our little girl likes to.”

“It's Jungkookie…” Soon a tall man stood beside him. His face gleamed with the bright sunshine rays, as his majestic features were enough for people to make their heart flutter. Pulling out a chair to sit he gave a small smile to the couple who stood up out of reflex. He sat down along with them looking at the beautiful flower garden in front of them.

“Jungkook likes to have them around.” he cleared his throat a little, while his eyes beamed with happiness remembering the old times.

“Not from the time y/n came here. He was into these flowers when he was 6. From the day he lost his father, he used to spend a lot here. He felt like these were with him all the time.”

“He shared a lot more things here than with us. We 6, secretly used to hide here hearing him pulling out his sadness, his happiness and sometimes the days he fed up working with heavy duty on his small shoulders.”

“We practically raised him and as the eldest brother of him , trust me, he is different. He is one of a kind. He was our baby and forever will be our baby. And i'm sure you wouldn't regret your decision this time, Mr. Roy.”

with that he stood up with a smile, walking away
