Chapter 5
The months wisped by from the day of Vegeta’s confessions, they brought along a certain feeling of failure and depression; how I could have left him there in that docile room hearing his own words echo from wall to wall, and I stand there a fool ignoring the truth before me? I really missed the simple childhood days we once shared. Everything then was so much easier and clearer. It was the birthday of Horus; the son of Isis and Osirs, was where I watched his heart weep once again.
The celebration of Horus’s birth was a grand affair; the finest foods covered all tables, even the indulgence of lettuce; the most delicate and expensive of foods given freely. All the high status of men and women gathered in the grand banquet halls of the palace, mindlessly chattering about their good fortune, woman plumping their lips to the Pharaoh; trying to gain favour in his bed to be one of his wives. There was certain the Queen wasn’t pleased, she kept making remarks bluntly pointing out any flaw the women may have and disgracing them with her vile tongue. At times through the dinner I felt her hateful glare my way, no doubt damning me to all of Set’s nightmares.
Chichi, my dear Chichi held herself very well, for a woman whom never been in the presents of so many important people, held her own; she was graceful and dignified holding the presents of a Princess. I was proud of her really, she faired far much better than myself. Me on the other hand, I felt like an ox amongst these people, stuttering, and splurting like a fool; the longest ‘dignified’ conversation I upheld was about the damn weather, this was my first sitting here since I was a boy, and then I didn’t have such impure thought’s of Vegeta. I kept my mouth shut; it was all about damage control. He noticed.
Those beautiful dark eyes, they glided over me, taking everything in. I was strongly reminded of the cleansing which then seemed like just the day before. My heart pounded in my chest as his gaze moved over my shoulders, up my neck, pausing on my dry lips, I stopped breathing all together when our eyes locked; his emotions clear as day to me, he was worried, of what I am unsure, perhaps my behaviour caused him some concern.
His lips parted, and I knew he was going to ask me something, say something to me and my heart pounded all that much harder, catching the attention of my wife. His voice cut short with the wave of his blue eyed Queen and in that second I wanted to throw my plate at the wench for interrupting my Pharaoh’s attention from me. I can see the look in her blue eyes, the way her mouth quirked into a smug smirk; she knew something that I didn’t and she was going to use such information against me.
She waved her hands gaining the attention of the diners of the night and with a light giggle the cold Queen spoke. “My guest’s it is my pleasure for your company of such a festive day of Horus birth, I could think of no others to join me and my husband then you all.” She made minor notes of the people all around randomly, ensuring we were the last to be noted. That very moment my heart went from pounding out of my chest to sink into my feet, the fear creeping inside me was ice cold. I looked into his eyes once again and I am reassured by his calm demeanour; she wouldn’t say, she didn’t know. Bulma smiled and held her hand towards me. “You grace us all with your presents High Priest; I know we are all blessed by Amun-Ra by your appearance.” She placed her hands to her chest as she looked upon my wife. “And you Chichi, the wife of the High Priest, and a dear friend. I came here to this wonderful city knowing only my husband and his closest and dearest friend Brolly. But you reached out to me, and befriended me, not wanting status or perks. You are my friend dear Chichi, and I know you have some amazing news for us all, to make this day even a greater reason to celebrate.”
My eyes rose when I looked down to my blushing wife, when was it they befriended? And why hadn’t she told me she became friends with the Ice Queen, my enemy… My eyes snapped back to the Pharaoh’s I seen there mixed among his emotions denial; hoping for something not to be. My wife stood smiling widely to the table guests and spoke the words that hurt my Pharaoh. “Thank you Queen Bulma, my news is I am with child.”
I was conflicted, happy to know my bloodline will continue on; the other was hating myself, seeing the horror in Vegeta’s eyes, doubt and pain. I didn’t have to look at Bulma to know she stared at me with a pure look of victory, she won a war, a war I was not even sure happened; but that day she won.
Vegeta nodded and stood; all our feet hit the polished limestone flooring standing with our Pharaoh. He didn’t speak a word instead he turned and left us all behind, watching as his figure slowly receded amongst the background. Bulma didn’t apologized for the Pharaoh’s behaviour, no one would ever expect it from him, he was Pharaoh and if he wanted to be rude he could. But it didn’t stop her from making an excuse for him, stating he is just upset because they didn’t have a child of their own when he really wants one. Little did the woman realize she insulted her husband with such a confession or lie which ever it was; she questioned his fertility and manhood. It was my time to be smug, sadly I wasn’t there to know of the outcome would be once Vegeta caught wind of her little slip. I knew for certain Vegeta would find out by the displeased look on Brolly’s face, it didn’t seem he liked the woman either. It’s a shame really I wouldn’t be here for the outcome.
I shook the events of that night off like a spec of dirt, I had much more pressing matters, I was to be a father; me a father. I was excited, and worried; all I thought about the days leading up was how would I be as a parent? All my worries and questions were all hushed instantly once I held my child, my son in my arms the moment he came under the sun of Ra, I knew I would give my life to that little bundle, I would do everything I can to ensure he was reared right. My boy Gohan became my life.
In the first three years of my boy’s life I seen more than my share of Bulma, she came here looking for comfort from my wife, coming her crying; the life of a Queen not the way she expected it to be. Foolish woman. She believed her and Pharaoh would travel the lands, indulging in the riches, getting everything she ever wanted and desired from her King bowing at her feet, lavishing her with all the passion in the world. But I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her, I too knew what it was like to want something so badly and not having it, but really, who did she think was going to lead Egypt’s army?
Another war has broken out and the Pharaoh stood in the front lines since he didn’t have a son old enough to replace him; matter of fact he hadn’t any offspring, talk been burning through the Pharaoh or Queen mayhap be infertile; more so the Queen then Pharaoh.
News spread quickly, and the news of our Pharaoh’s retreat came. The city wasn’t so joyful when the Pharaoh rode in towards the palace. I looked out over the balcony and I saw the tenseness in his shoulders as the wounded wobbled forward. The walk of shame and still my Pharaoh lead. Vegeta never hid his face in victory or defeat, his pride was strong and he stood with his men in any outcome; something I always admired.
Bulma came back to the temple crying once again on Vegeta’s coldness towards her, selfish woman; didn’t she realize how deeply disturbed he must be, killing many men didn’t make you want to skip around the gardens smelling the roses. She explained what had happened and why Vegeta had admitted failure and called for retreat. My mind spun as I listened in from the other room cradling the young Gohan. I knew a strategy for victory against the Nubians.
That day was a new turn of events for me and Vegeta, it was a day that changed everything and made the last slips of our willpower crumble.
My laptop is fixed. Expect all stories to be updated by Monday.
Emailer- Yes I do know the ancient Egyptians had no problems of homosexuality, Example: The lore of Horus and Set, they had homosexual relations. They had no problems with any of it really, adultery, incest, homosexuality, and at time… necrophilia (Shiver in disgust.) But I wanted to use the ancient Egypt theme with this story, it wouldn’t work so well if they were allowed lol. But the High Priest thing substain from sexual activity is fact, they could only have one wife. The thing I am stretching is their sexuality beliefs. Thank you for your message and glad you are enjoying it. And if you feel more comfortable with email then review then you are more than welcomed to email me, it isn’t a bother glad to answer any questions.
