บท 276: If she is safe

The next morning.

Princess Ellen woke up early the next morning, Jeffrey informed her that they will leave Bozoa at the first light the next day.

She had Grater help her dress up and arrange her things. Ann also woke up early to help arrange the snacks and water for the journey. Since they were setting out so early princess Ellen did not want to eat just yet.

King George also woke up earlier. He felt really sad to watch her leave. He has been so comfortable with her presence for the last few days that he forgot she would have to leave.

King George was not sure if he will get to see her with his eyes still open. So on this morning, he had hugged her close and found it difficult to let go.

"I am sorry," King George whispered. He still felt a rock in his heart anytime he things of all the injustice this daughter of his would have suffered.
