Chapter 47: Chapter 47
A NAUSEOUS AND WAVY FEELING
Both mother and son was shocked by her words, their countenance both changed.
Madok tried digesting what she said, he was not only shocked by what she said but how she had acted towards him, like though he was not worth a dime.
What fuelled his anger was how she left the dinning room without giving him a backward glance, he felt so insulted and slapped to his guts.
When Lucy Robson left there, he became mad.
He stood up from his seat and began pacing around the dinning room, he brought his fist down hard on the table, that it shook.
His mother was so frightened by his behavior, she had never seen Madok as angry as this.
"Son!!, You literally have to calm down, maybe she is just tired due to how tiring her journey was, please.
By the way, if you keep acting like this, she might never even want to get an inch closer to you, so please calm down", Amancia said.
"Are you really saying this?, Mother can you listen to yourself speak!!.
Mother, no matter how stressful her journey was, she doesn't have the right to walk out on me.
She did not even consider the fact that I am a prince.
Mother that is so belittling, she kind of belittled me.
Mum, take a good look at me, am I not worth to be a prince?", Madok asked, checking himself out.
"Son?, The last time I checked she did not walk out on you, she stated her cause for leaving.
She is okay, and even though she acted like that, you just have to calm down, when you finally get what you want, like what we want, you can now show her the stuff you are made of.
When she is finally yours, there is no retreat or surrender, so please we have to be so calculative of what the future holds for us", Amancia said.
She looked around to make sure no one was lurking around the corner.
"Mother, she really has to pay for this, I am damn serious mum, she has to pay for this.
It might not be now, but mum, I am damn serious that she is really going to pay for all of the attitude she acted towards me.
I mean, am I not God enough whilst I live?", Madok asked, displaying his true self, filled with pride and so egotistical.
"It's okay son, you only have to sleep this off, go to bed, tomorrow will be better", Amancia said as she yawned loudly, nature really calling on her.
She took the first move, and climbed up the stairs to her room.
Madok decided to lurk around, trying to think and digest all that had happened within the last two hours.

"Mum??, You would have told me I won't be seeing Rashid.
I had decided following you because I thought that I would see him after a very long time, you would have told me I would be seeing the you get brother who acts so grumpy.
I don't even like him,he is not even my ideal type it class of men.
Mum have you taken a good look at the Rashid of now, have you seen him?.
Mum he looks so good, I do not know how he would feel after the long years we had last seen ourselves.
Mum I really love Rashid, why do you think I have not been with any other man, since I was young?.
I have been keeping myself for him, mum.
Now I just feel so stupid, coming here with the intention to see him, but never getting to see him", Lucy Robson said.
************
When Rashid was very young, the Queen Amancia had pleaded with the Emir to allow the both of them travel, for a leave.
The Queen had pleaded with the Emir to let them go, since he had never allowed her leave the four corners of Qatar, due to his over protective nature.
Rashid was only but six years old, when the Queen had pleaded with the Emir for the duo to travel out.
The king had thought about it for two weeks before he finally allowed the both of them to travel.
Queen Amancia and Rashid both travelled to Switzerland, to meet Amancia's childhood friend, whom she had met when she was admitted to school for her highschool.
That was how they met, since then they became so close to each other.
Rashid and Lucy became so close within the two months Rashid had spent there, since then Lucy had never forgotten him, even up to this day.
************
"Luciana!!, Listen, I am not pairing you with Madok, it is your life to choose, I can only but pray for your marriage to be successful with whoever you want to spend the rest of your life with.
I will not force you to do what you don't want to do, the only thing I would say to you is for you to choose the right person when the right time comes.
My mum never forced me to choose your dad, I married him because I loved him and I still do, so.... Who am I to choose a life partner for my own daughter.
I will be so foolish to do so, my Luciana", Mrs Robson said, as she palmed her daughter's face, and gave her a peck on her forehead.
As much as she loves her daughter, she will not let her make wrong decisions, or even go to the point of choosing a life partner for her.
"Thanks mum, I love you so much", Lucy said as she hugged her mum.
She took her towel and headed straight to the bathroom, to the bath that had been prepared for her.
She was thinking about cute little Rashid, when he was six and very young.
"I love you too", Mrs Robson said.
*****
All the while, Madok who was supposed to be in his room, was lurking around.
He had listened to everything they said, both mother and daughter.
He almost felt fainty.
He was shocked to the brim, he realised the reason for Lucy's attitude towards him during dinner.
He felt nauseous, wavy feelings slashed through him.
"All he could not get, is what his elder brother, Rashid, always got on a platter of gold.
He never fights for anything, all the good stuffs always comes his way", he thought, as anger rushed through him and boiled to a certain degree.
He was mad at what they said, "why can't I be the perfect person for everyone.
Even Dad, although I know he tries to hide the fact that he loves Rashid more than he does to me, I see it in the way he talks to him.
The way he corrects him whenever he makes mistake, the way he shouts at him", Madok muttered.
He remembered when he had done something wrong, his father, the Emir never even gave him a second glance, he never shouted at him like he dies whenever Rashid makes mistake.
That was when he knew that something was definitely wrong somewhere, but he didn't know how to fathom it, he decided to ignore it.
Today, this night, all the thoughts kept hitting hard at him, as he remembered all that had happened when they were little, forgetting all the good things, Rashid had to let go because of him.
He heard a sound from the back, he looked back to find out that someone was actually around there.
He noticed that the person was walking slowly, with hands covering her mouth, from the person's shadow.
"Who is that?", He thundered.
The person said nothing, instead the person ran into the kitchen and began throwing up.
He too ran into to the kitchen to check out who the person is.
It was no other person than Khadija.
A nauseous and wavy feeling came rushing up through him, he hoped it was not what he thought.
He quietly withdrew and went up the stairs to his room, with different thoughts running through his head.
