Mother and daughter were on their way.
The roads looked very familiar to the former.
As her heart started beating faster, her daughter said, "Now get ready for a nice surprise!"
They were soon in front of a palace.
It was the same palace that she (the mother), the erstwhile princess of Jouga, had to sell after the death of her father, who was the king of that area.
Her memories and pain sprang alive.
Her daughter interrupted her thoughts, "Mother, time to move in to your own palace. I have bought it. This is our new home from today..."
Do you love surprises? How would you react if you got back something that you thought you had lost?

I would be utterly speechless. It would take me a while to understand, but I would be EVER so thankful, eventually :)
ReplyDeleteI like surprises, that would be one hell of a surprise to get - I should be so lucky!
ReplyDeleteSurprises are wanting in our lives. Even little surprises create so much joy!
ReplyDeleteDear Anita,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely surprise.
Shalom,
Rochelle
This would have been a lovely surprise - some other surprises can be less pleasant.
ReplyDeleteThat would be quite a shock, but a great happy ending for the mother. :)
ReplyDeleteThat was a lovely surprise. This mum can be very proud of her daughter.
ReplyDeleteI would probably be happy...
ReplyDeleteI'd be even more surprised to learn where the daughter got the money to buy a palace...
ReplyDeletegain/loss such a balancing act
