**SNEAKING OUT OF THE PALACE**
**AAMINAS'POV**
"Hello, Good morning sir, there's an urgency, the head maid, Khadija, got raped by the second prince.
Please I want you to come over to the secret hospital, we need to take care of things, you get that we need to handle things, so they won't get out of hand", I told Mr Krennon, the secret agent owner.
"Alright, will be there, in a few hours, I don't know when both of you intend reaching there, but I will make sure I am there very early.
See what will happen here, you know the palace is more far than where we reside, I mean the agency, so I prefer that once both of you, gets out of the palace, do let me know, nevertheless, I would get someone to pick both of you.
You both should be very careful, someone might be lurking around", Mr Krennon said.
"Yes boss", I said while chuckling, giving an attention stance.

**AUTHORESS POV**
Aamina tiptoed into Khadija's room, she saw her sobbing on her bed, she sighed and walked towards the bed where Khadija laid.
It was mid-morning, perfect time for Aamina to carry out her plans, since she felt everyone would be fast asleep.
"Hey Khadija, everything's going to be alright, you remember what I told you earlier, right?", Aamina questioned.
She heard no reply from Khadija, only muffled sob.
"Hey babe listen, if you should keep crying without no remedy to the situation at hand, it's like crying over spilt milk.
Left for me, I would prefer you stand up from the bed, head straight to the bathroom, have a real nice shower.
Although I would prefer you have your bath later, because..... There's is somewhere I would love us to go...", Aamina said, as she sat down on Khadija's bed.
Khadija sprang up from the bed immediately, "w-what d-did you ju-just say, are you su-sure of wh-wh-what y-you just said?.
Do you know the i-impli-cations of what you said, is there actually a re-remedy?", Khadija stuttered.
"Yes Khadija, there's actually a remedy, but, that is if you could stick to plans then everything's going to be okay.
If you won't be able to follow throught the instructions I am going to lay out to you, sorry but, nothing is going to work as planned.
Are you sure you want to do this, because I am very sure I would love to help you out", Aamina said.
"Why will I give you a negative response, when you have been there for me, and you are really willing to help me.
I am very sure, if not for any other thing but for the help you are so willing to give to me", Khadija said.
"Alright, that's good, now we have to leave the palace, we actually have to sneak out, but if we should get caught, then you have to use your place as the palace chief maid, that there are foodstuffs that are running out and you would love to buy more from the market, understood?" Aamina questioned.
"Yes, very well understood..",.
"Alright let's move, won't you like to take your bath, at least, to wipe off the tears and make you look better?.. "no I think I am okay like this", Khadija replied.
********
After their escape plans had been drawn out by Aamina there was still a problem they had to tackle.
At that point in time, no good possible idea seemed to be running through the mind of Aamina not even Khadija, they just marched forward, like people that had no worries or problems.
"And where do you think, both of you are heading to, looking like people that wants to....
"That wants to do what?", Khadija snapped, "what do you think you want to do, the fact that you run the palace gate doesn't give you the right to question me.
Alright, this is the best thing, maybe I should just go back to the Queen's room and tell her that, you the gate opener and closer, told me that she needs an approval from you, before you allow me to do the work the Queen sent me to do, how does it sound.
It sounds quite interesting right?" Aamina said as she gave a wide grin.
"No, it hadn't come to that, please go, take your problem and go, wa-waittttt, who is this person that you want to take along with you?", The palace gateman asked.
"Maybe I should just go back and ask the Queen.."
"No now, don't do that I was only joking with you, both of you can go", he said, having them a hard glare.
Immediately, they were out of the palace, a black tinted car, ran through towards them and came to an abrupt stop.
"Who is that?", Khadija asked.
"It's no one you need to know, but rather someone who would help you out, I mean us.
He is ready to take us to our location, hurry up get I side the car", Aamina said.
"By the way Aamina, you didn't tell me where we are going to, or don't I need to know where you are taking me to?", She asked.
"Don't worry Khadija, we will be there soon, you just have to keep quiet let me be able to think straight, pleaseeee!", Aamina said while taking a glance at the city.
"Alright, quiet you say, I definitely will", Khadija replied, as she brought out her face towel to wipe off the sweat that had creased her brow.

"The only thing we have to do is to give her an after pill, which she would take to wash off the aftermaths of their sex, and after that she is all good.
Also, you have to tell her to comply with whatever we would tell her to do, she would be coming here once every two months for the lectures on her behavioural aspects within the two months.
I would have said you should help her out with that, but.. you understand that you were never up to...
"You don't have to worry about that, Mr Krennon, I do understand everything, and you reminding me about it, helps to ignite the rage in me, it motivates me and reminds me of my mission in the palace.
You really don't have to worry, I am not hurt by the words, you have really done a lot for me, and forever I would keep appreciating your efforts towards me.
Thanks a lot, Sir Krennon, I would forever be indebted to you", Aamina said.
"It's alright, Queen Cub, it's okay, so remember, the dual monthly therapy she would be coming here for, we have been able to wash out everything.
I am also glad to say, that she is safe from you know whatever would have happened if you weren't there yesterday night, or rather spying on her.
You may want to leave now, because your time is rounding up and it's really getting late, I am sure you wouldn't want anyone to be aware of your sudden disappearance from the palace.
You said something earlier about, Madok suspecting you right?", Sir Krennon asked.
"Yes sir, and I am really trying to make sure he doesn't join one and two together and sniff out, what I have been trying to hide since, almost for the past ten years", Aamina said.
"My advice though is, be careful about the way you both hangout, I mean Khadija and you.
Don't always be in each other's company, like I have seen that you both have grown fond of each other, I know you wouldn't want the prince to suspect a thing.
I am deliberately giving you all this advice, because once you are sniffed out, the undercover of this agency would be blown off, so please be very careful, you hear that?",
"Yes sir, all heard, I will make sure nothing is leaked out" that was her final word to Mr Krennon before she left for the palace.
*****
It was easy for both to enter into the palace, Khadija had already gone to the kitchen, since she still had a whole lot of work to do.
Aamina was about entering her room, when a voice interrupted.... "Soooo, where have you been?".
