Sweet short memories of you

England

As time passed by, Caspian and Lucy become even closer, the spell that she put on him seemed to have worked but mostly negatively on Caspian's side as he started experiencing headaches from time to time. It seemed he lost his reasoning too because he believed everything that Lucy told him. Caspian started having some short memories of his passed life as well which may have been the cause for the headaches but he did not mention it to Lucy or Edmund. He was not exactly sure of what those memories could do to Lucy who had grown very fond of him and to make matters worse, all the short memories he had were about Susan. Surprisingly, he found himself smiling rather than confused whenever he had such memories.

For Lucy, even though they did not have something as strong as a love affair, the fact that Caspian showed some interest in her was enough to make her happy. He had been very charming and sweet to her. He picked roses in the garden every morning to offer her at breakfast and listened to her stories every night. She however noticed that he was holding himself back most of the time but she did not want to give room to anything that might hurt her so she tried by all means necessary not to pay attention to whatever she noticed that was not in her favor.

"Bonjour" Edith answered as she picked the phone without paying attention to the number calling.

"Hello, it is I Edmund". Edmund said." How are you? Peter and Antoinette? I hope you have taught them French already.

"Oh Ed, we are alright thank you. I am glad to hear from you after a long time! And of course, they can speak French considerably well. Can you imagine that Antoinette can make an order for herself at the restaurant and Peter that can read a french article without consulting a dictionary for every word?"

"Oh my goodness! That is unbelievably wonderful!" Edmund said delightfully.

"How are you doing yourself over there and Lucy? Edith asked joyfully in her french accent.

"We are alright here thank you. I have only been busy with the new firm that we recently opened as you know. Edmund said joyfully too. "Is Peter at home?"

"Of course he is". Edith answered." Would you like me to give him the phone?" She asked.

"Yes please." Edmund said and thanked his sister in law whom he had not seen since they moved back to France.

"Ed, how are you?" Peter greeted his young brother.

"I am alright thank you but am afraid I have disturbing news Peter". Edmund said in a disturbed tone. "Caspian has been here for sometime now". Edmund said.

"Caspian?! What do you mean Caspian has been there for some time?"

"I mean just that Peter. Lucy used magic to bring him to England and its making him lose his mind. Please come and help brother." Edmund pleaded

"I will be on a plane first thing in the morning". Peter said and put down the phone without asking for more details as he could sense the worry in his brother's voice.

Narnia

"Susan". Lady Beth said as she walked down the stairs of the front door of her house towards a group of people she quickly recognized "To what do I owe the pleasure?"

"Its queen Susan". She corrected her. The tension between the two women could not be overly exaggerated. "I am not here to play your mind games Beth; I am here to get Caspian back". Susan stated straight forwardly.

"I am afraid I do not know what you are talking about "your highness". Lady Beth answered somewhat mockingly.

"You know exactly what I am talking about. Have you no dignity at all to hide the king in your chambers?"

"Do not insult me Susan; I have no idea what you are talking about. It has been years since Caspian chose you over me so do not tell me that you feel insecure all of a sudden. Besides, I have no feelings for him anymore".

"Oh Beth, you have not changed a bit. We both know that you are lying to yourself but anyway, that is the least of my concern right now." Susan said provocatively.

"I am in a good mood Susan so please do not provoke me." Lady Beth said while moving closer to where Susan was standing.

Lady Beth faced Susan fearlessly just like she did when she saw Susan for the first time. She was very good at keeping her emotions inside, something she had in common with Susan; she would never show any weakness in front of a crowd, especially not in front of Susan.

"On what grounds do you base your accusation?" Lady Beth questioned. "It would be naive of the queen of Narnia to come here and make an accusation based on her dislike for me. Don't you think so trumpkin?"

"My lady I.." Without finishing his sentence, trumpkin just bowed his head. He too disliked lady Beth since she treated him disrespectfully when she stayed at the palace in Narnia.

"I know he is here, he stated that in his letter". Susan stated factually.

"You make your accusations over a letter? Come on your highness, you can do better than that" Lady Beth chuckled mockingly. " can I at least see the letter?" She said and laughed.

"Do not test my patience Beth; I am going to search each and every corner of this place until I find him".

"Normally, I would say no to that because it is unbearably insulting of you but then it would seem as though I have something to hide. So please, be my guest". Lady Beth and gave them a gesture with her hands to enter the house.

Susan and the three knights she went with prepared to enter the house and start searching. But before they could move a step, Lady Beth stopped them and warned Susan.

"I have given you permission to enter my father's house, but you will pay for this humiliation you have caused me. Lady Beth said. "If you do not find Caspian in my house or anywhere in calormene, you will apologize to me and to all the people of calormen publicly." Lady Beth warned Susan.

"And if we find him?" Susan questioned raising her eye brows at Lady Beth.

"Then I shall do the same thing as I have stated to the Narnians". She answered

"Works for me". Susan said and made her way into the palace, as well as her knights.

The calormenes gathered around the house and murmured among themselves.

"Quiet!" Lady Beth shouted. "I know most of you think that I am guilty of this accusation because of the history i have with the king of Narnia but I assure you that I know nothing about this. To prove my innocence I have allowed queen Susan to search this house and the rest of calormen freely. However, if they do not find their King, then they owe all of us an apology". Lady Beth said as she addressed her own people.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! The crowd shouted strongly while Susan and the knights were already in search of their King.

From now on, each chapter will contain the two worlds. I would like you to tell me what you think in your reviews and if you think that Peter will talk Lucy out of her fantasy world with Caspian.
