In Which the Blog was almost lost, and other thoughts

Good evening, my friend, reader of the present post, I am happy to see you, always happy to see you. How are you, this fine beginning of Thursday? The past few days have been of profound stress and tears of desperation. This is due in special because my blog, I believe due to an AI moderation malfunction, was flagged as malware and taken down by Google. That was the equivalent of throwing me in an ice lake in antartica. I made an appeal afterwards, and thankfully the error was corrected, but until it was recovered, I had a horrendous Tuesday-Wednesday night. I was weeping through the whole evening, I risked losing the work, albeit hobby oriented, of 8 years.  It was not the only reason for my tears. I also saw an eulogy a new pen pal made for his great friend, that unfortunately perished. I felt awful for him, and I wish I could have met his good friend, he seemed like a lovely gentleman.

The Adventures of Mr. D'Onofrio and his Suitcase with 700 socks! Chapter 22

 “My subjects!” Said Kyle at the chamber of the king on the next day, on the first hour of Afternoon. “After much deliberation, I decided that, after meeting my cousin again, I’m returning home. I abdicate of the throne on favor of Adelaide Forster! She will be either the new queen or the one to appoint my successor! I will leave today with my cousin in a merchant ship and this is decided. And as she’s away with me on my trip, I leave the Baron of Philadelphia as the regent.”

People exploded in shock and fear after hearing this, but in a much less surprised way than the last time it happened. After sleeping on it, Adelaide decided that whatever happened, it would be for the best, and for now she should focus on preparing Zach on the wheelchair and on the ship. The news flew by quickly, and the population was already bowing for Adelaide, something that made her extremely uncomfortable, but that she decided won’t disturb her too much.

Zach was with his eyes closed on the wheelchair, holding the hand of both Adelaide and Kyle, as a servant pulled the vehicle. The subjects living in the city taken they were by surprise, and decided to just say goodbye to the last king and wait for what was next. After some preparation, they left in the end of the afternoon, in a very safe ship, owned by an honored merchant family. The population waved goodbye and resumed their lives.

Zach was still with his eyes closed, and still shaking, but he was in joy for facing his fear, every second was a victory.

“This ship is one of the safest out there, cousin! We’ll be at home after no time!”

“Do you guys promise not to leave me by myself while I’m here?”

“Don’t worry Zach, I’m happy to be here” Said Adelaide.

The three went back to the city of Zach. And the city of Kyle.
