The Emperor Is Searching

"I would like to tell you a story." The Emperor said to Nena a while ago. 

After the Emperor showed Nena his child, he suggested a picnic for the three of them. Nena learned something new on their way. The lots of men, how they always follow the Emperor everywhere and also the lots of servants. She wanted to ask the Emperor about it, but concluded it must be because the Emperor is very rich, but then she recalled he isn't supposed to be.

She spoke her thoughts out loud and learned the rice farm belongs to her tall handsome mister. 

Nena held the Emperor's hand as the men set the tent and everything, she watched them in fascination. She has never seen or done something this exciting. She feels so happy that the Emperor has taken them out on a date.

"Give her to me." Nena said to the maid who's carrying Hara, the Emperor's child and after the maid gave Hara to her, she carried the baby and followed the Emperor inside the tent.

"Please don't come in, use the other tent with the others." Nena said to a maid she saw following them inside the tent. The maid stopped on her track. "But my lady, the food needs serving and the fruits need slicing and the baby.." the maid stopped when the Emperor looked at her.

Nena looked at the maid, she smiled before saying. "Thank you, I can do it myself."

The maid turned and bowed at the Emperor, waiting for his order. When the Emperor noticed what the maid did, he looked at her furiously. "Are you deaf, didn't you hear her say leave us!." He yelled and immediately the maid bowed and apologized before she hurried out.

Nena laid baby Hara on the bed they made just for her and then she turned to the Emperor, she moved closer to him and touched his hands. "Tell me, I know something is bothering you or don't you want me here?" 

Immediately Nena asked him that, the Empress held her hands. He looks Nena in the eyes. "Don't say that. You know I want you here. I want you wherever I am ..always."

Nena hold his hands a little tighter. "Then tell me what it is that's eating you up ..please." She pleaded when the Emperor closed his eyes as if in discomfort.

"My mother is here, she said she came to help me get the woman I love ..i mean the woman i love which is you." The Emperor says touching Nena's hands softly.

Nena stopped him. "What's the matter with that ..don't you want me to meet her? Aren't I the woman you love?." Nena asked, getting a little agitated.

"It's not that, my love, I love you and I do want you to meet her ..it's just my mother." The Emperor said feeling angry at himself for not knowing how to explain the situation to Nena.
