Chapter 56
A pair of red eyes was staring at me. I felt like I was trapped in the ice at this moment, but I got a hang of myself after a few seconds and averted my eyes away from his eyes.
W-why? He is only Seras uncleHe cant meet with his niece in a long time, so he came to me for my help.
Is it only that?
Exactly! Why do you have to force me to answer this question!?
Shiwa, you are the one whos being suspicious. That guy can go into Shiwas roomand even kiss your cheekI dont know when did you plan this meetingMoreover, you even met him today.
Do you know what are you saying right now?
I know.
It sounds like you are jealous?
Yes, Im jealous.
Shiwa, you are my fiancee. Dont get close to other guys other than me.
The seriousness in his eyes conveyed the meaning hidden in his words to me. I felt like Im being confessed to but why did Ifeel empty like this?
Was his feeling genuine or was it only an illusion?
Luler, did you really know what love is? maybe he was only felt possessive over me but he wasnt jealous in that kind of romantic sense.
My head achedIt blanked
my head achedbecause of the voice in my head.
Im sorryI dont feel very good today. I pushed him away from my body.
You dont feel very good? Why?
NoIts not because of youII want to rest in my room. Can you fill in the absence form for me?
I will go with you
Noyou have to go to class.
Shiwa.
I beg of youI want to rest in my room alone.
When the school over, I will quickly go to your room?
Umm
ShiwaYou are really alright, right?
UmmIm okay.
You dont have to make a face like thatIm only getting tired a little bit.
UmmI will accompany you to your room.
Okay.
Luler gently supported me to my room. When I was near my bed, I reach out to grab an aspirin and drank the content inside down before lied down on my bed.
Do you really dont want me around? Luler touched me. Even when I was under this thick blanket, I still felt his touch.
Theres no need to worry about me. You should go to class. I cant sleep If you are here.
Umm, I will be back quickly.
tap tap tap
Crack!
The sound of his footstep was getting furthering away until I could hear the door closed
AhWhat the hell was I doing? I didnt know what to feel but I felt bad showing my weak side to him like this but
This weird feeling that kept struggling inside my chestI couldnt make it stop
My eyes were getting heavier because of the medicine before I completely fell asleep.
Cold
Why did I feel like someone poured a bucket of water over my head!? Had someone really poured water over my head!!?
OhYou wake up?
N-noir!?
When I opened my eyes, I saw Noir, who was squeezing a small white cloth as he sat beside my bed. How could he come in here!? Was Luler forget to lock the door!? I didnt think thats the case here
AhDont sit up just yet. A patient should sleep.
patient?
When I tried to sit up, he pressed me down to my bed again buta patient? Did he mean me!?
Your complexion is really bad. How can you act like you are fine when your face is paled like that. Who do you catch it from?
No!!!
The scene where I fed Luler my blood through my mouth suddenly appearing in my head just like a file in a computer waiting to be opened. Thats rightI think it was that timeI felt a headache like this for a while but I didnt even know myself.
Sigh
You could still get sick even when you were a doctor, huh.
Fufu, Its really difficult being a doctor. Taking care of other but forget to take care of your body. Finding someone to take care of you when you are sick is really hardI really feel pity for you. Noir squeezed the cloth until it dried up and put it on my forehead.
Thank you but how could you come in here!!!?
I wasnt the one who opened it. Sera was the one who did it because she didnt hear your answer so she went to ask for a spare key. She has to go back to the mansion first because of her work so I volunteer to look after you.
I think Im in danger when Im with you more than Im alone.
Why are you so rude? I dont plan to do anything to a sick person. Its not funand Im indebted to you too. I wont count a little thing like this as a favor, you know.
You dont have to take care of me. You only have to bring that bag over there to meMy medicine is stored in there.
You dont have to worry about that because youve already eaten it.
What?
I feed it to you when you were sleeping. You even obediently ate it, fufu.
Feed me!?
I suddenly had a goosebump all over my body. Dont tell me that!!?
Exactly, by using a spoonIt was very hard to feed it to you little by little. Noir picked a teaspoon up making me sigh out in a relieved. Why? What did you think I use it to feed you?
He shifted his body to move his face towards me and grin.
No, its not like that
You face is very honest right now. Dont act stubborn in front of me. Im already 257 years old this year.
The tip of his tail kept poking my face softly. Did he think that I was a child that he acted like this? Never mind, I did think I really a child in his eyes.
Its my business. Im already getting better. I also want to rest, so get out Noir.
You are heartlessDo you want to discard me when Im no longer beneficial to you?
His eyes were brimming with a tear. He looked pitiable but Im sorryyou couldnt trick me again, you 257 years old prince!
Even if you are Seras uncle, you trespass into my room without my permission right now. I dont want anyone to come here and see the two of us alone
HmmThat personDo you have a specific person in mind?
Its not your business.
You are really pitiful.
even when your heart is dull this muchbut it isnt gotten any care from anyone.
He put a hand under his chin and squint his eyes to look at me. I was pitiful? What was he saying? I wasnt pitiful. I was already happy staying in this world. Even if in the end, I wasnt the heroine for Luler but I wasnt sad in the least bitnot at all.
AhIts really irritating.
Do you want my help? Trust me, I will cherish your heart to the best of my ability.
Does anyone told you that sometimes, you meddle in other affairs too much?
Sometimes~
If you already know it, then stop doing that.
I only meddle with the person that I interested in such as He used his hand to reach out and lightly curl my hair then he smiled.A kid with a pair of sad eyes like you.
It makes me want to protect them.
Stop messing with me.
Pang!
I slapped his hand away from me. He was really an annoying man? Dont mess with me too much!! Did he think that he knew better than me!!?
Get outI want to sleep.
As you wish, princess. See you later~
He stood up and waved at me slowly. When the door closed, I only wrapped myself with the blanket and forced my eyes to close down with difficulty.
If I toldeverything.
Told them that I knew everything that was going to happen and this world was only a gameand our destiny
Would you think that I exploited you, Luler?
ButIt didnt matter at all since I
I cheated from the beginning.
A man was holding many colorful flowers in his arms. He ran into the castle and quickly
took his shoes off.
AhIm soaked up.
His chin-length black hair was soaked in water. His clothes couldnt even escape the rain that was heavily falling down right now.
Methyst-sama, please use this towel.
Methyst-sama, please take a bath to clean your body.
a group of maid walked out and handed him a towel.
Its alright. I want to place these flowers down first before taking a bath. You dont have to follow me.
He rejected their concernedness and walked away while carried those flowers in his arms.
The maids could only look at him with a worry in their eyes. He could order them to pick flowers, but he had a tendency to be stubborn.
When he reached his destination, he only felt shocked when he saw that the door was opened. This was the deepest room inside this castle and nobody was permitted to be near except for him and
Father?
The god of the underworldHades.
You wake up early today Hades said while he stood in the middle of the room.
Y-yes, I heard that therere beautiful flowers blossoming inside the forest soI thought that if I went there early it will still have sweet-scented and Mother
He walked towards the middle of the room. This room was just an empty room except for a glass coffin which filling with many beautiful flowers. Its placed in the middle of this room. Theres a body of a sleeping woman lying inside it. Butthe body that was still in a slumber
A tear was falling down from her left eye.
Look like a nightmare, huh.
Hades gently wiped her tear away before he sat on the edge of the coffin.
Mother
You dont have to worryIt wont be long before she wakes up again
from these endless nightmares
She would come back.
