A month has passed, Zeno has finally finished his mourning period, dispelling the sadness even if it is not completely, and mentally arranging that he can accept that his mother really died. In that one month, it felt very heavy, even Zeno attempted suicide, but there was always Turse who accompanied and calmed Zeno. So that right today, he could smile brightly even though it was not very visible.
“Wah-wah, the emperor finally tried to get out of his room.” Fang Tan leaned against the wall of Zeno's room, saw his little sister come out and showed no more sadness.
Since losing both of his parents, the state of the emperor had also completely become very lonely, let alone Fang Yuna also not being in this empire. What was more, what made Fang Tan even more so was his sadness, that he had to accept that his little sister this time would leave as well as leave the country of water.
“You're too much brother, I haven't been lifted.” Zeno said with a faint smile.
“Wait another? One empire awaits you for so long. It seems that Turse also misses his hometown there. In addition, I have also prepared an imperial ship for you which you can leave at any time.” Fang Tan said as he moved his head as if gesturing that Zeno should leave immediately.
“Kakkak an. Thank you.” Zeno reached out his hand intending to shake hands with his brother and lowered his head. He also suddenly lost that thin smile of his.
“Job of hands only? You're nothing.” Fang Tan smiled as he embraced his little sister without shaking the hand that Zeno offered. That made Fang Zeno smile again. “Thank you for what?” Ask Fang Tan.
“Entailah, I am also confused to want to thank you about what.” Zeno was confused as his head was on Fang Tan's shoulders.
“You're.”
“Thank you for being my brother, you were a good brother and a substitute father when I didn't come back.” Zeno.
“By the way brother.” Zeno brought his mouth closer to Fang Tan's ear, then whispered, “As soon as you find a wife, the empire will become very quiet if you don't immediately find a partner.”
Fang Tan distanced Zeno's body, his gaze actually became very lazy when someone especially his sister had already discussed about a couple. Even Fang Tan sighed heavily while turning his back to Zeno. However, he seemed to be pondering, what his sister said was true, the empire would become very quiet, and only contained a branch family if he did not seek a mate.
“Gosh, you really made the atmosphere split sir.” Turse with Kirin and Uron behind him. Which since then, they seemed to want to see the silent atmosphere at the time when his master wanted to do farewell with Fang Tan.
“Really? Though I speak according to reality.” Zeno looked back while scratching his head.
“This is back. I'll catch up with you two days after you're there, during the emperor's coronation ceremony. And of course, along with the other emperors” Fang Tan turned back around and looked at Zeno.
“I hope you didn't invite emperor Yin shan.” Zeno frowned.
“Hey, who wants to invite br*ngs*k to it?” Fang Tan rolled his eyes.
“Alright, I'll be leaving right now. I hope you don't mind.” Zeno.
Until finally, Fang Tan and Zeno moved their legs in different directions. Which, Zeno went out of the imperial palace of the water country. Meanwhile, Fang Tan, he wanted to return to his room and enjoy a lonely day. A day when his family seems to be divided subtly.
It felt very sad, grandparents died, as well as his father and mother, Fang Yuna was in the lightning country following Rouya as an emperor. And now, his little brother also left him and would become an emperor.
Fang Tan now lies on his stomach on a bed, resting his chin on a pillow. Her tears also continued to pour down the pillow. For some reason, he wanted to repeat a time, during which one of his family regrouped by embracing as a family. However, all of that was gone in an instant and would only be a memory he never forgot.
Likewise with Zeno, he rode on a horse carriage with his head bowed in sorrow. Her feelings were so crumbling that just like her brother, she felt that her family had been subtly divided just because of a problem. In his mind there was only a memory of his family gathering in a few weeks. He also recalled, as his family hugged, and he leaped excitedly at them like a child.
It was just a dream, the worst dream he had ever had. Every now and then he looked back, watching a palace growing farther away. He only smiled as if he could not leave his beloved home.
Turse, Kirin and Uron who were near Zeno, they only turned their faces away and did not want to see his master sad to the times. They also understood, what it was like to have just lost some family, but also to have to leave one family that still survives.
Zeno sat down while covering his face, the sound of soft cries rang out in the ears of his subordinates which made them unable to not grieve. Perhaps the journey to this port will only be filled with a cry of sadness from an emperor candidate.
.......
Until at the end, the three of them were already in port with Zeno who had stopped crying. However, he only fell silent as if he was still dissolved in sadness because he left one of his family that still survives in the place.
Some who saw him also saluted, but were in a state of silence from seeing their prince grieve. Many of them also understand Zeno's feelings, which his family is completely divided. Nor can they trivialize the feeling, because they know that Prince Zeno must lose a happiness that does not last for a year.
Even when he entered the luxurious ship of the empire, Zeno still lowered his head and did not pay attention to the road.
“Master, don't think that your family is completely divided. All of you, be it emperor Fang Tan and Big Brother Yuna, have such a strong inner bond. Don't think that your family will never get together again. You guys just need time.” Turse tried to calm Zeno down.
Zeno who had just sat on a special chair wiped his tears and said softly, “You are right, it's just that it might be very heavy knowing that we will rarely get together again because of the busyness of each.”
“Make it an experience, so that when you have a family, you won't let that happen.”
“This all happened because of the bullies, if Danze did not come, my parents are still intact, my grandmother is also still the emperor until I can feel the feeling of being together as a family.” Zeno said that looked lethargic.
“Forget it all. Right now you have to eliminate all your sadness and be less authoritative in front of people later. Isn't that so, emperor Zeno?”
