KINGDOM OF DIANA
His eyes went to Sean's hand on Angela's shoulder, back to Sean's confused face. Angela and Sean exchanged glances. “Sorry…I am confused, I don't get you”. Sean mouthed and scuffed an anxious chuckle. Antonio rolled his eyes, pulled a hand out from his pants pocket, in a swift he grabbed on Angela's thin wrist and pulled her to him. “Do you understand now?” His deep, thunderous voice could literally scare a lion out of his jungle. Angela was dying inside because of shyness…but also very excited that he was reacting in that way because of her. He is jealous. She smiled secretly to herself. “Oh my apologies…I didn't mean to”. Sean stuttered embarrassed, then he noticed Angela's uncomfortableness. “I think you are hurting her with that grip” Sean warned. “How is that your problem, just friend? She told you that my grip hurts her?” “Hey man, that's not cool, that's not how real gentlemen behave around women”. Sean snapped pointing at him. “Sean”. Angela wanted to step forward, but Antonio held her back. “You surprise me Mate, you really know nothing about me, pointing your finger…you want to lose those damn phalanges?” His mouth twisted cruelly. “Antonio” Angela snapped in a whisper, then she smiled at Sean. “Don't worry about me Sean, I am alright, I am just shy that's all”. “Are you sure?” Sean asked tightly. Antonio grabbed Angela's neck, still gently standing behind and pulled her face to his, their lips met and he deepened the kiss. His eyes were still on Sean, until Sean became uncomfortable and turned away. “I will wait for you outside, Angela”. He muttered and left the room. As soon as he was gone, Antonio let go of Angela and put back his hand into his pocket. Angela swung around and faced him, her brows arched in annoyance. “You don't need to do that, I love you and no one else”. She snapped angrily at him. “You owe him an apology”. Antonio scoffed. "For what? Setting my boundaries? You know I don't apologize to anybody, not to mention a lowlife, "he asked care freely. “Being rude to people is not so cool, he is a friend of mine, and you disrespected him…can you please try to respect everyone irrespective of their background”? She said with traces of colorless liquid in her eyes, then she went out of the room. “Angela is mad at prince charming”. Liya whispered to her sister. Antonio heard them quite well, he rolled his tongue angrily, avoiding eye contact with the twins, knowing they must be looking towards him. He walked to the window and looked down, watching Angela talking to Sean beside his car. Then afterward they hugged and Sean drove off. As soon as she got into the house, he stepped out of the living room to meet her. They met at the passageway, after she came out of the elevator. He opened his mouth to say a word, but nothing came out of it. Angela slowly walked past him, hoping he could at least apologize but no word came out so she entered the living room. She sighed and dried off her tears before approaching the twins. “Angela, are you crying?” Liya asked. “It's just a flying insect, what are you two up to?” “We are building a castle!” The girls chorused. “That's cute”. Angela smiled at them. “Will you be the queen of our castle?” Angela smiled. “Of course”. “Then just wait”. The two whispered to one another and ran into their room. Angela sighed deeply. “I just wish he could be more open, should I apologize first?Maybe I should…he might apologize if I say it first…”. She wanted to stand, then she heard the girls. “We are back!” They both wore fairy costumes. “Wow, where did you get those frowns it's pretty and cute”. “Your husband!” Lia snapped. “Prince charming bought it for us last time he visited, here's your crown”. Liya added. The girls gave her a crown. Just then Antonio pulled the door, Angela stared down immediately, her heart racing. His presence is affecting her much more than she expected. “Prince charming! Come, you are the king of our Castle”. The girl rushed to him, he faked a smile, followed behind them, They pulled him by the hands, one holding each. He knelt down beside Angela, who was put in the same awkward position by the girls. “Now we are going to crown the king too”. Lia said, and her sister gave her the king crown from their toy collection. Antonio played along and lowered his head so they could put it on him. “So, the king, what shall we name our kingdom?” “Diana…”. Antonio replied, then immediately regretted it. That came out of nowhere, I wanted to say Diamond, fuck me. “Kingdom of Diana? Well, excuse us the fairies to think about this…name”. The twins looked at each other than they whispered to one another. “If prince charming says it, that means it's a cool name”. Angela glanced at him. Looks like someone is still holding on to the past, but freaked out about Damon's call, she thought. Antonio noticed her sharp glance and cursed again inwardly. “I have a better choice”. He announced. The girls looked back at him. “What about the Diamond kingdom?” “Yes, perfect”. “You are really prince charming”. Angela smiled at their reactions. The girls cleared their throats. “We, the pink and purple fairies hereby crown you as King and Queen of Diamond kingdom, you may share a royal kiss, your Highnesses”. The girls announced with their magic ward and quickly covered their faces, leaving a peeping hole in between two tiny fingers. Antonio kissed Angela on the cheek, then he stood up. “Thanks for the crown, I promise to take care of the Kingdom and the queen”. He smiled at the twins. Angela avoided his eyes. “Our pleasure”. They giggled. “I will be on my way”. Angela's heart skipped. “Are you leaving now?” Lia asked sadly. Antonio glanced back at Angela and caught her glance, she immediately looked away. He smirked. “The Queen can say otherwise, if she wishes”.
