I'm SO sorry that I didn't post yesterday! It slipped my mind......
But thank YOU so MUCH for your kind words, that you add my story to favorite and follow! I'm so bad at showing my appreciation. xD
Arias Summerhouse (Aria POV)
I park the wagon in the stable that is outside the house. We lift up Boreas and walk inside with him to the guest room where we lay him on the bed. I know Buk said he was in a coma...but he looks so lifeless, so pale...
but somehow sad.
"I'm not complaining about the house but isn't this the first thing they will search when they look for us?" asks Samitos and looks around in awe. I roll my eyes and begin to unpack. "The only ones who know of this summerhouse is me, my dad, and now you two", I respond.
"And my father wouldn't say anything 'cause he likes to be left alone." Buk nods and goes to sit on one of the sofas. We start to wonder how long this "temporary coma" will last before Boreas wakes up, the thought of him never waking up scares me. But I need to be calm and focus on something else.
"Do you want a tour of the house?" I offer. The boys gladly accept. So we begin to go around the rooms and look at what's inside. I'm most interested to see the garden, but we start to look inside the bedrooms. Nothing I haven't seen before, my bedroom in the palace is way bigger. Every bedroom has a big bed with a soft mattress, a window that let in much light, and a simple wardrobe.
We also have a hobby room. With bookshelves, a tripod stand, and chess. Though neither I or my father have any interest in painting, reading, or even chess.
Then finally we looked at the garden. There is a stone path leading to the back of the house, the stable and front. We have a little fountain in the middle and benches placed all over the place. Samitos sits on his knees and plays with the fishes in the fountain.
"Aria, I've heard that you are a pretty good fighter", says Samitos and I think I know what he's going with this. "Show me!" Samitos stands in a fighting position and awaits my first move. I smile and roll my shoulders. Buk is going to be the judge but fights are often not fair.
I begin to run toward Samitos, and I try to kick him in his chest. He takes hold of my right foot with both his hands and try to get me out of balance. He lets go of my foot, and I retake my stand. When we are about to continue Buk shouts;
"STOP!' We both stop in confusion, the fight hasn't even lasted for a long time. "I think I heard something", he says now quieter. He gives a signal that we should split up and surround the one in the house. I make my way to the front of the house and get eye contact with the others. I hear the man inside, he's in the kitchen.
I run for cover at the wall and turn my head slowly. I gasp when I see that the man is Boreas and that he is awake. "Boreas you're awake!" I feel him smile and wrap his arms around me. But then I punch him hard on his shoulder. He looks at me with a really confused face. "Don't you ever do that to me again! Ever!"
Boreas raises his hands in defense. I wait and expect him to say something but he doesn't. He turns to Buk and gives some type of sign language. He points to his throat and continues to make hand movements. "What do you mean, you can't speak?" Boreas looks down and writes something on a piece of paper that he has. When he's done we go to read it.
"I can't speak! Menelaus gave me some kind of failed medicine which took my voice! It has stop hunting but I may never fully recover." I stumble back in chock and then I feel my blood boil. Appears like I'm not the only one, Samitos and Buk look as pissed as I.
"Don't worry Boreas he is not gonna get away with this!"
Sorry for the one-day late update!
