Chapter 25
"You are so great! Everything is very good and very lively,"
"I've been doing it since I was three years old. I always draw whenever and wherever. My brothers often say that I'm a boring freak. But, I always feel that only when I'm painting, I can feel like myself, that's why I am really enjoyed it."
"You are right!"
"Hum?"
"When you are drawing, you can feel so alive and free. You will be someone who enjoys life the most than anyone!"
"Hum? hahahaha ..."
"Why are you laughing?"
"Sorry! it's just that what you said, is exactly what I thought. Because of that, I feel like I have found my soul mate! if we had met earlier, it would have been fun, wouldn't it?"
"Yes..."
"My brother Vincent is very adventurous. He is a true explorer, he always complains and says that the island is too small and cramped for him. He doesn't want to spend all his life living in one place and meeting the same people all his life. This island is not that small, but for someone with a free spirit like him, any area will still feel cramped. Even his twin, David did not have the same thoughts as him. David is more flexible and enjoy what he should enjoy,"
"Is that so? it seems like twins are not always alike in everything!"
"Yes! sometimes I also don't really understand how twins can have such deep emotional bonds. Is it different from ordinary siblings? because what I see from my two siblings, they seem inseparable. Even though sometimes they fight and have views different lives, but still they always support each other and share the same happiness and pain,"
Zavier was lost in thought, it made her think of Nathan. In the past, Nathania never thought what her life would be like if Nathan left her. Just thinking about it, she had been crying for hours. However, the thing that she had been afraid of had happened. Nathan died on their birthday and it is now six months since the darkest day of his life.
"The pain can't be described in words,"
"What?"
"Losing someone who has been with you since you were in the womb is the most painful thing. You go through and share many things with him and when they disappear from your life, it is as if you are alive, but your soul is gone. The pain will be very difficult to heal! "
"Zavier? you also have twins?"
"Yes, I have it!"
"Really? Is she not with you?"
"She was dead!" she said. Seeing the sadness in Nathania's eyes made Jerome feel very guilty.
"Forgive me!"
"No need to apologize. Farewell is destiny that cannot be avoided. Ready or not, one day we will part with the people we care about,"
"You're right, Zavier!"
"As long as we can get together, enjoy the meeting, because we will never know when our time will come,"
"You know what, Zavier?"
"Yes?"
"You're so thoughtful, I feel like I'm talking to someone who is very important to everyone!"

"To keep stalling for time to get him to speak is just ridiculous!"
"So Claudy, what kind of thing do you think is ridiculous? can you explain to us?" asked Nicholas who continued to sit back and enjoy his tea.
"It's useless asking someone who always feels right!" Vincent immediately teased Claude who always complained about their actions.
Queen Clara sighed, she did not know that accommodating strangers in their palace would cause a heated argument between her sons who had different opinions. Unlike Robin, Matthew and Alexei who can be calm or Nicholas who is too relaxed. Randall, Claude, Vincent and Richard are in a camp that if they don't agree, then they don't hesitate to fight. Although Claude did not use violence like Randall and Vincent, his harsh words always ignited the anger of three violent young men like Randall, Vincent and Richard.
Raising 11 children is not easy. Even though in truth, they were very close to each other, it still did not guarantee that they would be free from conflict. In fact, Vincent and David who were twins often argued and even fought. That is a normal thing in the brotherhood.
"Father!" said Prince Robin. As the eldest son who is the heir to the throne, he always tries to be calm and considerate before doing and making decisions.
"Yes, Robin? do you have any suggestions?" asked King Leonard who was still relaxed as if there was no problem to fuss about.
"Are you going to contact the Lithonia kingdom?"
"Why? are you worried about something?"
"I thought, can you postpone it?"
"Postpone it?"
"Robin, what do you mean? why should we postpone it? do you have any other considerations?" asked the queen.
"Actually, yes!"
"Really? tell me, what are your considerations?"
"Can you see the window?" he asked as he glanced at the large window on the right.
"What's with that window?"
"We will see!"
