Queen Ample sighed the tired but contented sigh of a woman who had endured weeks of festivities, drama, and relatives. The last few weeks have been incredible. What with the holidays, Clarence and Elswyth's wedding, and the... engagement of our daughter to-the oaf.
King Public Parking noted his wife referred to Olaf as an oaf instead of an ogre as she usually did, indicating she was coming around to accepting the engagement gracefully.
That reminds me, Ample continued, whether in the spirit of Christmas or a Christian one, I am pleading with you to give a present to Houston and his bride, Stephanie. Do you realize she has already given birth to their baby? It is embarrassing. I even got to hold him. It made me wish things had been different-where we would have had more children.
So, the king said, leaning back, it is a baby boy?
Yes, and he looks just like Houston.
The king jested, Then the first thing I must do is send them my condolences. He chuckled proudly at his own joke.
Be serious! Ample swatted his arm. They were married in Los Farthing without any family present. I'm sure it cost them a fortune. Please do the right thing... for me?
She placed both hands on his cheeks and gazed at him with the kind of adoring expression that could melt the coldest heart-or a stubborn monarch.
Within the king reasoned: Whenever she does this, my insides melt. She is such a beautiful woman who has remained by my side after all I've put her through. I am grateful and deeply in love with her.
He cleared his throat. Ahem... I will do as you ask. But first, I will have my deputy pay them a visit to ascertain what they may need.
Excellent. Olaf has a good head and heart for such things.
I agree. What else is on your mind?
Truthfully, I am worn out.
After all the activity lately, no doubt.
That is why I find myself looking forward to my trip with Anastasia. Thank you again for granting me permission.
King Parking chuckled. No need to thank me again. I believe you showed me your appreciation sufficiently three times that evening.
Ample blushed a delicate shade of red. Well, I still have a sufficient amount of gratitude for when you are in the mood. She grinned at him with an unmistakable expression.
The king's eyebrows shot up. In that case, why do we not adjourn the court early?
Even in fairy tales, life is not always a fairy tale where everyone lives 'Happily Ever After.' Continue reading to see what life holds for them.
