Quest Of Battle

Chapter 51

"Don't stress yourself. You will only make things worse."He said."You only try to make things better and if she doesn't see that, then she doesn't see you."

Leila just nodded her head in reply.

"When you want a shoulder to cry on, I'm here."He assured.

"Thanks."She said and placed her head on his shoulder.

Zenith could not believe his eyes. Leila is really close to him,too close.
But he did not mind. All he minded was the fact that she was by his side and that made him happy.

And Leila was even surprised of herself. At least she did not waste her time being that close with any other man.
And being around Zenith made her special and secured and she loved that.

They were quiet as they enjoyed the breeze.
Leinali who was passing by saw the two.
She felt pity for them. What if they fall in love with each other and Leila finds out her lover is the killer of her dad? That will lead to chaos.

So without wasting much time,she went.

*******
Kayla who had been outside the palace taking some fresh air in the green grasses decided to call her friend back home.

"Hello Stephanie. It's been long."Kayla said.

"Kayla!!!!"She shouted in excitement."How are you and where are you?"

Kayla just laughed at her voice."Fine and you?"She said trying to pull herself from the next question.

"Yep."She said."Good as always."

"Okay..... Um how are things going?"

"Great."Stephanie said."Apart from that red sky."

"Yeah. I saw that."She said."Did anyone get hurt?"

"Yes."She responded."Many of them. Some did not really make it because of the earthquake. But I wonder the cause of it."

"That's really sad."Kayla said."But I will call you again okay."

"Okay."She said."Kayla, thanks for your concern."

"Naa....It's okay."Kayla responded a bit proud."Bye."

She cut the call and lied flat in the grass.
Time passed and it was in the afternoon.
Kayla did not bother doing anything. At least her part of her job will be on the day of the party.

It's was not long when her nap was interrupted by Ezra who was hitting her forehead.

"Mm.... leave me alone."Kayla lazily said.

But he kept tapping her head.

"What!!!!"She said angrily.

"If you had woken up earlier,I wouldn't have worried you."

"Leave me alone."she turned from him."Don't worry my sleep."

"You want to go back?"he said drawing her attention."I can help with that."

But she did not mind.

"Seriously I can and I will not let the others know of that."

She turned to him."Really?"

He nodded in reply and stretched forth his hand."What are you waiting for?"

Quickly she stood up and adjusted her thick bouncy hair in a bun.

"They will not know we had gone in the first place."He assured her.

Without thinking much,she made him lead the way.
