⟨ DIFFICULT SITUATION ⟩
⟨ PALACE OF MAELSTROM ⟩
“Thank you Waylon” Tatiana said to Waylon when they got back to the palace. Zain has retired to his room, pretending like he knows nothing, just like how Tatiana has instructed him to do.
“For what Tatiana?” Waylon asked, looking at her.
“Osvaldo is your father, but you still want to help me in this battle that I am about to face” She said.
“He might be my father, but that doesn’t mean I am going to turn a blind eye to everything he has done. Cheng is not my biological brother, but we are somehow related, and since my father is the one who made his life miserable, I have to make up for what my father did, by helping Cheng” He said, and Tatiana smiled.
“Thank you so much Waylon, I will be going in, now” She said, and tries to leave, but Waylon held her hand.
Tatiana looked at him, and he slowly let go of her hand.
“Are you… Are you really going to disappear for good?” He asked with a sullen face.
Tatiana smiled lightly and nodded her head.
“Immediately after I help Cheng, I will disappeared from the human world, and my world entirely. I will become inexistence, because I interfere with human lives for the second time” Tatiana said.
“Is there no way for you to remain here on Earth”
“The only way is for me to peacefully return to being Gretchen, the powerful guidance of the forest and seven seas, but if I do that, I won’t be able to save Cheng” She said.
“And if you try to save him, you will no longer exist”
Tatiana looked at him for a while before nodding her head.
“I am prepared to no longer exist on Earth, as long as I am able to save Cheng. Please don’t tell Cheng, if he knows about it, he won’t allow me to save him. I’m running out of time, and I have to do this, before things get worse, promise me you won’t say anything to Cheng” Tatiana said, with pleading eyes.
“I promise” Waylon said.
“Thank you Waylon” She said and tried to leave, but Waylon pulled her back and hugged her.
“What’s wrong Waylon?” Tatiana asked, trying to break the hug, but Waylon tighten his arms around her.
“I might not get the chance to hug you before you leave Tatiana, so let me hug you for the first and last time” Waylon said as tears falls down his eyes
Tatiana blinked back her tears, and slowly hugged him back.
✨✨✨✨✨✨
⟨ CHENG’S ROOM ⟩
Tatiana entered Cheng’s room and sees him drinking, so she quickly rushed to him, and took the liquor from him.
“Why are you turning yourself to a drunkard Cheng? Is unlike you to drink, so why are you doing this Cheng?” Tatiana asked with a worried look on her face.
Cheng looked at her with painful emotions in his eyes. “Are you seriously asking me why I have changed, when you are the main reason why I am going insane!!!” Cheng shouted at her.
Tatiana kept mute, without saying a word.
“Despite your distance towards me, I was still worried about you. I left my room to go and look for you, and I saw you and Waylon hugging each other. Is there something you are not telling me? Are you interested in my brother now, since he doesn’t have a demon inside of him, huh?”
“You are getting it all mixed up Cheng, there’s nothing going on between me and your brother. How can I cheat on you when I am betrothed to you” Tatiana said, with a cracking voice, indicating she was crying.
“How can I not suspect something fishy Tiana. You have been distancing yourself from me, but you went ahead and hugged Waylon!!!” Cheng shouted at her.
“There’s nothing going on between Waylon and I. You are the one I love, and will forever love” She said, crying.
“You love me?” Cheng asked as tears falls down his eyes.
“Yes I do Cheng, I love you more than my life”
Cheng tried walking close to her, but Tatiana snuggle backwards.
“Don’t come any closer Cheng, is for your own good” She said, sobbing.
“Get out”
“Cheng” Tatiana called his name.
“I am sure you are not deaf, right? Get out!! Get out of my life!!!” Cheng yelled at her, pushing her out of the room, and after he shut the door on her, he fell down to the floor and started crying.
“Tiana” He mumbled her name, breaking into a painful tears.
Tears keeps flowing down Tatiana’s eyes as she heard Cheng crying inside the room.
“I think this is for the better Cheng. You should learn to h@ťě me, so that when I no longer exist in this earth, you won’t be saddened. Goodbye in advance, my first and last love” Tatiana said crying, and caress the Cheng’s shadow she was seeing on the door.

⟨ MASTER GU’S HOUSE ≈ NEXT DAY ⟩
“Marcellus told me you have been avoiding Cheng, Why Tatiana? Why are you hurting the man you love” Swati asked.
“I didn’t mean to Swati. But that’s not the reason why I came to see you”
“Why did you come here to see me Tatiana?” She asked.
Tatiana took Swati’s hand, caressing it softly.
“Your parents didn’t abandon you Swati” Tatiana said.
“What are you trying to say Tatiana?” Swati asked, with a puzzle face.
“Your parents didn’t abandon you. You are not from Maelstrom kingdom. You are from Rhema kingdom. Your father committed a treason, and he was ki||ed for it. Your mother run away from Rhema kingdom so she could save you, since you were still a baby”
“But unfortunately for her, arrows were used on her while she was running away with you. The love she had for you kept her going on, until she arrived in the forest, and her last wish was for the guidance of the forest to save you. You weren’t abandoned Swati, your parents died and that’s why they were unable to cater for you” Tatiana said, and Swati broke into tears crying.
“But how did you know about my birth” She asked crying.
“I read about your birth Swati. I just wanted you to know the truth about why you were abandoned in the forest, before I leave”
” Before you leave? Where are you going Tatiana?” Swati asked.
“I am Gretchen, the guidance of the forest who saved your life 23 years ago” Tatiana said.
Swati’s eyes widened, and balls of tears falls down from her eyes.
