RIGHT TIME
ZARYA'S POV
It had been a week since the last conversation between Hali and Queen Haliana. After that night, the Queen left the kingdom and we had no idea where she went. Possibly she was calming her feelings or had a realization. I believed that she would go back at the right time.
The weekend was silent. We just went to the Human world because it was Freedom Day. Higher King Oswald was so happy for unknown reasons. He gave us two days of freedom to do what we desired in the Human World. Only to find out, that Hali and he was now bonding together with the other Alpha Kings. It was soothing in the heart to see Hali joking with his father and he would laugh.
I walked to them with a glass of juices on the tray. I placed the tray on the table. I lowered my head to the alpha kings as my way of respect. "Greetings, Alpha Kings. Higher King."
"That's not your job, Great Beta." Higher King was looking at the glass of juices.
"Father, she's practicing to be my wife." Hali grabbed my waist, dragging me to sit beside him. My cheek turned red as all of his brothers including Higher King watched us.
"Oh, come one. You just threatened Zarya to marry you." Zephyrus chuckled as he grabbed one of the juices. He sipped the content with a sound as if that tasted so good on his tongue. "Taste like pussy."
Raiden hit the back of his head. "Is that the manner of a king?"
Colden prevented the smile on his lips while he was observing Zephyrus massaging his head. "You're the most sadistic man I have ever met!"
"You're the most perverted king I have ever seen," Raiden responded to Zephyrus' sulkiness.
"Father! He's being childish again!" Zephyrus reported to their father. His lips were pouted. He was one of the craziest among them. Should we say that he was childish, not King Lightning?
Hali was chuckling beside me. In a second of staring at their family. There was something that popped inside my head.
Every family is not perfect. Sometimes, they have misunderstandings, but at the end of the day, they will only have one another, accompanying, supporting, and loving one another. It's unpredictable how a father or a mother loves their children. However, their love cannot be measured.
I gazed at the white glowing sky. It was noontime, so the light was burning my skin, nevertheless, the wind coming from the trees was enough to feel cool. '
How's my family there?
Papa, if you can see me, my heart is in good hands. I found a family and soon I will create my own. I wish you were here. I wish you can congratulate me for standing fiercely in spite of being alone in this cruel world. I miss you all. I love you all.

"Give me that!" I recklessly took back the chocolate from my brother's hand.
"Mom, Dad, Zarya's selfish! She doesn't want to give me a bar of chocolate!" He was immature and I hated him at that time.
If only I knew that he would leave me early, I should give all the chocolates to him.
"Let's go in the river! Come on!" Early in the morning Zay came to my room and pulled my feet out of the bed.
"Shut up! Don't you mess with me! I'm sleeping here!" I came back to my position and sleep well.
If only I predicted that I would never see him again, I must go with him and do whatever he wanted.
Siblings are annoying. It will make your blood boil in madness. Nevertheless, they are the most gift and the best company we can have. They are the blood of our blood who can understand us for worst or good.
I love him like how these Alpha Kings love each other.
"Zarya." Zephyrus wiggled his eyebrows when he went closer to me. "You have one month to change your mind."
I prevented the smirk on my lips. Hali was on his back, glaring at him and I think the war would be lit when he spoke again.
"Just call me if you want to escape to Hali. I'll support yo一ouch!" Hali kicked his back. The reason why he winced while his mouth was opened. The laughter is all over. Even I had a loud chuckle.
"You're intoxicating her mind! I promise if she changes her mind because of your devil lines, I will kick your balls and peel it, huh!" He showed him his closed fist.
"You're brutal. I hate you so much!" Zephyrus acted as if he was crying without tears.
"When will you mature, Zephyrus?" Colden asked him while chuckling, covering his mouth.
"Why?" Zephyrus asked him with his smirk.
"I'll organize a party for your maturity." Colden chuckled.
"I'll support you." Hali had an up here to him.
Actually, they were all childish, except for Pyro who had just chuckled or talked when needed. Raiden was sometimes immature, joining them, so I could not consider him as mature. They were enjoying life in their companies.
"Papa." My eyes went to Princess Ember. She was opening her arms as if he wanted Pyro to lift her. Pyro did not hesitate to get her and placed her on his lap.
Accidentally, I saw Hali's eyes on them. He was silent, watching them as if he was wishing that one of these days, he had his own child. I felt bad about last time. I drank herbs because I was thinking of being a warrior. Chaos was everywhere and if I carry a baby, I would be fragile. I did not like our baby to be subjected to miscarriage. I wanted it to be healthy. When I was ready and when everything was fine, I swear I would work hard for our firstborn. For now, I would fix the problems, so we could start a happy life.
"Love, do you want egg pie?" I rolled my arms on Hali's neck extending to his chest. I was located at his back while I was kissing his cheek. He was sitting on the bamboo long chair.
"Later, Love." His eyes were still on Princess Ember and Pyro. Pyro was taking care of her daughter, pacing a spoon with food in her mouth, and then wiping the dirt with the handkerchief.
"She looks like Fira, isn't she?" Hali gave me a wide smile.
"Yeah, but at times, Pyro's angle."
"Hmm?" Hali reached for my cheek and kissed it. "Us? When will we have a baby?"
I buried my face in his shoulder. "Our angels will come… at the right time."
