Emilie take a walk in the st James's Parks alone while her daughter's nap, wrapped up warmly, admiring the great beauty of the park and savouring this escapade far from court's perpetual agitation, lost in her thoughts, she saunter without aim, letting her foots lead her wherever they want. She arrive to a field full of pretty yellow flowers, amazed to see so many flowers in winter, she can't prevent to lean over and pick up some flowers, making a bouquet, thinking that it will look beautiful in her room.

George was nervous while he was watching Emelie trying not to show himself. It has been a very long time since he fell in love with her. But everyday he didnt meet Emelie, the situation was getting confusing. Anne was rising to be the Queen of England. But his brother has a bastard. Damn..
"My lady"
George finally found a power to show himself. When Emelie turned to George, he recognized the youth beauty he had fallen in love with. He felt a pain in his heart. Everything was so beautiful while they were young. George tried to look at into Emelie's eyes, held her right hand, brought it to his lips. Kissed softly.

She bite her lips as the word feel weird to her mouth and ears, she have call him George while a so long time, feeling melancolical as she recall of this beautiful old time that seem so far ago now, she sigh, trying to don't think to it, as George look in her eyes, she look in his too, feeling breathing faster again, a chill crossing her back as his hand taking hers and kiss it and she giggle.

Looking at his face that time hadn't change at all, feeling happy to see him again, she smile warmly.

George let himself to watch her face, her warm smiling. He was very pleased at her friendly company. He grinned leaving her hand. Looked at into her eyes.
"And i see that you still keep your beauty"
George didn't understand how he could let himself to talk. It was just like Devaju. Just like no bad things had happened, they had been just two young lovers. He liked the way how Emelie made him feel peaceful.
"A very long time..I'm fine. It's so nice to see you. What about you? What about my little daughter?"

She look at him with a surprised air in hearing his question, finding it a bit weird, reflecting, then she answer him.
Well, seen her age, she don't know your full identity, for her you are only "papa" or "papa George", but of course, she know who you are about her, she hadn't forget you even if she hadn't see you since a long time, I know it because she talk about you sometimes and evocate memories of moments that she have spend with you, I am often amazed by what she can recall of !

George listened to Emelie carefully. He didn't understand why but hearing about his daughter made his heart soft. He felt an emotion that he'd never felt before. That was more beautiful thing he'd ever felt. He was a father. That is the moment he understood it completely. He held Emelie's hand with a mad courage, pulled her to himself, looked at into her eyes.
"Emelie, i want you to listen to me carefully. I know i made you and my little daughter disappointed. But believe in me before we met, i was such a man hadnt known what the love was. Then i met you. I met love of my life. I spent the most beautiful days of my life with you. And if you ask me about regret...No, i have no regret for what we had lived. "
George took a deep breath, brought her hand to his lips. Kissed it.
"Forgive me for i had promised you to marry you. Forgive me for i had left you. I want you to know that i am out of my control. I am governed by Boleyn family. I am gonna marry Jane Parker whom i feel nothing about. You know Anne has a serious relationship with the King. That's why i have to do best marriage for my family. But believe me i will always be with you and my daughter."

Emilie fell his hand take hers and pull her closer, she look in his eyes too, the emotion she feel can be read on her face as he talk, tears feel her eyes but it isn't tears of pain but of nearly too intense mixture of emotions, her voice shake slighty as he talk.
George ... it's touch me beyond words, I am happy to have bring you happiness, you know, I don't regret either because I have spend with you ones of the most happy moments of my life and the love I had with you has been the only real one that I ever had ... and it's thank to our love of the past that I have got this wonderful little girl, who is all my life.
She smile as he kiss her hand, then tears of emotion flow along her face as he tell her the words that her heart expected hear, without she has been even conscious of it and she wouldn't had dare to imagine it he could tell them, she bite her lips and take a deep inspiration and look deep in his eyes.
I forgive you, George, I forgive you wholeheartedly, even if I have suffer very much, I don't resent you, in the end, I have get much more happiness than pains from what I have live with you and I know that you was sincere, like I was myself. I know that you aren't free of your choices, that you have to serve your family's interests, especially since your sister's position and have to marry this woman. And if I am sad about it, it's for you, because I wish I would see you marrying a good woman who could make you happy instead of her, I sincerely would has been happy for you.
She feel very light suddenly, as if a burden has been take off her shoulders from these sincere and essential words exchanged that clear up the thing and this forgiveness she give him, she smile as she hear his last words, wiping her tears with her fingers.
It's all what I wait from you, George, I know that you can't do more, that you aren"t free to do more, I just want you for be in our life, to be there for Olympe, to bring her love and protection if not legitimacy, so she will know in her heart that she is loved in spite of her statut and is the fruit of a guenine love of the past ... and I would be happy if you and me could remain in contact too and see each others sometimes, if you wish it too.
Subject: Re: Yellow Flower Field Thu Jan 17, 2013 6:00 pm
George listened to her with a smile in his lips. He nodded when Emelie finished to talk.
"I don't think there is no women that can make me happy as you did. But thank you for let me to keep in touch with you."
George looked at down, tried to find true words not to break her heart.
"Emelie, no body should know that child is mine. II'm proud of you and my little daughter. But if someone learns Anne's brother has a bastard, they won't let Anne to rise."

Emilie listen to him in smiling.
I would be happy of it.
She look at him as he continue and sigh heavely, thinking that the fact he is Anne Boleyn, the future Queen's brother, complicate the things about Olympe.
I know, at my knowledge only my mother, my closer friend and a part of your family know ... the situation is yet complicate, I don't want people start to gossip and meddle in it. But until when will we keep the secret about her origines ? what Olympe will be able to tell about her paternity and filiation ?
Subject: Re: Yellow Flower Field Thu Jan 17, 2013 10:48 pm
George took a deep breath trying to find a solution. Actually that was the main problem that didnt let George to sleep all night long.
"We can't tell anybody whose her father is. If you tell people that Olympe is someone else's child, that will be cause of people make decisions behind you. I can't let this to happen."
George turned to yellow flowers, touched them, smelt slowly.
"You tell people that Olympe is not your own daughter. You took her your kinsfolk that are dead now. Tell them Olympe did not know that her faily had been dead. You understand me?"

Emilie shake her head, rejecting the very idea to pretend Olympe being other man's daughter.
Anyway, I wouldn't accept.
As she hear his words, her face take a atonished air than turn to horror as she realize what he ask her to do, disown her own daughter !, Olympe wouldn't had any parents anymore ! she shake her head with a determined air.
No, George, I squarely refuse this very idea, my daughter is the most precious I have got, she is my blood and flesh, and I will never deny my maternity !, can you imagine a single second how she would feel ? At no price I could do it to her !
She look around, reflecting, under shock, she take a deep breath.
I am going to continue to tell to people that she is my daughter, with proudness, and to do my mother's duties, like I always did since her birth, you, do what you want.
Subject: Re: Yellow Flower Field Fri Jan 18, 2013 7:58 am
"What will you answer when people asks you whose her father is?"
George talked with a calm voice

Emilie reflect and answer him.
That she isn't legitimate, her father don't recognize her and I don't wish to reveal his identity, at last this isn't a lie, I will not reveal you paternity since you absolutely want to keep it secret.
She sigh and glance at the flowers at her foots, thinking that Olympe will be happy if she come back with a bouquet of it for their room, she pick up some of them, forming a bouquet with dexterity, while reflecting intensely, then turn again to him and aks him with a calm and serious voice.
Tell me, what about Olympe ? will you care of your father's responsabilities, in private ?, if you don't, I prefer to know it now and don't count on you about her.
Subject: Re: Yellow Flower Field Fri Jan 18, 2013 2:06 pm
George looked at her eyes fastly.
"Emelie, she is my daughter! She is a part of me. Of course i take all responsabilities. How can you ask such a question? You talk just like you don't know me not at all. "
He took a deep breath trying to calm down.
"I want to be a good father, i want to give her what my father couldn't give me. I just can't stand thinking people call my daughter as bastard and call you as a whore."

Emilie look in his eyes too, holding the bouquet in her hands, feeling reassured by his paternal reaction and answer him with sincerity.
Of course, I know you George, but it's a long time I hadn't see you and the turn that have take our discussion, especially your suggestion, made me doubt about your intentions toward her, but I has been wrong, I apologize, I didn't meant to hurt you.
Feeling moved by his words, she don't take her eyes off his.
You are a good father, I know that you care for her and will take responsbilites and it's reasure me for her, I want her for having you present in her life and will let you your place of father, I know that she need you as well as she need me. I understand how you feel about what people can tell, I know how malevolent people can be, it's why I am careful and remain secret about my private life and about Olympe.
Subject: Re: Yellow Flower Field Sat Jan 19, 2013 2:52 pm
George tried to calm down listening to Emelie. Her voice was so soft. It was impossible to angry at her.
"Alright, Emelie. Everything looks good now. Thank you for being indulgent to me."
George smiled at her

She smile back to him sweetly.
I know that the situation isn't easy for you either and that you are busy with your work and duties toward your family, it's what I tell to Olympe when she ask about you. Anyway, I think it will go well, indeed, because even if she is illegitimate, she is well surrounded by benevolent people.
Recalling of his father's visit, she add.
Do you know that your father have come to visit me for talk about Olympe and encounter her by the same occasion ?
Subject: Re: Yellow Flower Field Mon Jan 21, 2013 2:42 pm
George was almost shocked. For a moment he felt that sense of fear filled his heart. He gulped down trying not to show his fear. He approached to Emelie, looked at into her eyes.
"I hope he did not say anything to hurt you. "

She look into his eyes too, can reada refrained fear in them, she shake her head.
No, no at all ... I admit that I has been atonished and feared when he have knock and announce himself to my door, especially since Olympe was in the room with me and it's with apprehension that I have open to him. But in fact he has been nice to both of us, showed good intentions. I don't know him enough well for know if it was fully sincere, but he seemed to be anyway.
