My name was Ishtar, a fifteen years old heiress to the throne of Freege. Currently sitting on my bed and packing over my clothes, because we were going to stay over in Barhara at least for a week. Mother said there would be a reunion.
"Ishtar?"
"Yes mother?
"When you are done with your pack, help me do mine will you?"
"Alright."
Mother seemed so excited about the whole matter; I supposed she was happy with the prospect of seeing her friends again. Not to mention that going to Barhara equaled with seeing her brother. Mother was always on her happiest whenever uncle was included.
As for father…he was entirely different business. He looked very reluctant to go, even though he could meet his sister. But then, father never fond of Barhara, it showed from the way he always finding some excuses so he wouldn't need to go. Nevertheless, I believed he might not refuse the invitations this time, since it didn't come from Emperor like usual; instead it came from uncle himself. And I knew perfectly despite all the efforts he did to avoid uncle, father had a soft spot for him, being his cousin and more.
Finished with my bag, I took it with me and left my room. I was on my way to mother's chamber before her voice stopped me in front of father's study.
"You haven't begun your preparation yet."
"You and Ishtar should go first. I'll catch up later."
"………Drop this act, now, okay?"
"……What act?"
"You have been avoiding him for eighteen years, and you begin to avoid Ishtar too. I assume this is because she becomes more and more like my brother; am I right?"
There was pregnant silence before mother decided to continue, "I don't want you to deprive her of a father figure Amid, that's all."
I gave out a big sigh.
Not. Again.
I stopped listening to them and resumed my path.
I'm sure with the way I acted; one would wonder how exactly I took this family problem so lightly. The answer was simple; I didn't consider this as a problem.
How could you not? Your father is in love with another person! So does my mother.
Your parents didn't love each other? No. I was born out of duty to preserve the pure bloodline of Tordo for your information.
And it didn't bother you? Nope.
I always knew mother loves me and father cares about me, so if they were fine being together without love, who am I to oppose that? As long they were cool, I'm cool.
After all, my uncle –bless his soul– once gave me an advice, which I took to heart: "Don't make your life more complicated than it already is."
So, once again…my name was Ishtar, a fifteen years old heiress to the throne of Freege. I had a great uncle and the sweetest part was that both of my parents were in love with him.
Welcome to my awesome life.
