“promise?”

Episode- 236 “promise?”    Celeste’s POV:   I asked, “Queen is from E country, and King is from N country, but how they met… I am just curious…”    Ernest said, “my dad was born in E country and grew up there, I don’t know the details but I heard once that Dad had crush on mom when she was in high school, funny part is they had different schools..” that’s confusing, but how King saw Queen to have crush.    Ernest added, “I am curious too… but Mom and Dad like to keep their love to themselves….. I want us to be like them, they are so happy together. They do fight like normal couples, but can’t stay angry for long…. And Dad takes every verbal attack mom does, or her light hits on his shoulder, they look cute…. We 4 siblings are really lucky to have them as our parents, they hide us to give us a normal childhood. Mom never said get better grades, be better, or do this or that… she was ok with whatever we do, she wanted us to be happy rather than perfect…. Dad agreed but taught us how to fight and protect our self….” I smiled, they are perfect, it must be nice to have them.   I asked, “Ernest… how is your grandmother? The way Evelyn talked about her I am little sacred to meet her…”   Ernest said, “she is savage and brave, and stronger than mom… but gentle too… she is just strict to her son… and she adores us… and I am sure she will like you. there is nothing to be scared.. yea.. my maternal grandma can be little picky but that doesn’t matter, she loves us and she will love you…”   I whispered, “you have a big family…” he nodded. he switched the plates, and I noticed he cut the meat for me.. he is caring….   He stretched his hand to get my hand in his, he said, “today I promise… my every priority will be you… I will not repeat my mistakes… and I will love you like this…” I smiled and went to hug him, he pulled me on his lap and I whispered, “I want to slap your for faking your death…. I was in so much pain that I can’t even express… I am really mad at you.. but I can’t stay angry either…”      He made me look at him and said, “I was serious about us being even…. You can be my abusive wife… you can slap me…” he said this and I grabbed his hand in mine and I asked, “do I have right on you?”   Ernest pushed my hairs behind and said, “every right you want I will give you..”   I asked sniffing, “then promise me… that you will not hide anything from me.. you will not leave me… promise me..” he nodded and said, “I promise.”   I said, “I always said I hated you…. but I love you more than that.. so please don’t die, please don’t get hurt… please don’t disappear…”  He kissed my lips lightly and said, “I will be near you… even if you don’t want to see me, I will stand in front of you… even if I have to fight with your father or anyone..”    I asked, “promise?” he said, “promise..” I smiled and hugged him, I kissed his cheeks and whispered, “I missed you…” he whispered back, “me too, love…”     After few minutes of staying in embrace, he said, “now.. let’s eat… it looks like you lost weight in these months…” I looked at him as he teased me.. but maybe I lost weight….    I asked, “can I ask you something? will you give me…”   He took my hand and said, “don’t need to ask… you have right to demand, you are my wife…” he explained.    I said, “I want to meet Isabella… will you take me to her grave?” Ernest looks at me and then said, “sure… how about tomorrow…” I nodded…
