"Fine, we will go back there tonight so I will enjoy looking around the town since I will not have this chance again once we go back," I said as I stood up.

'How can you enjoy it if you don't have money?' He said so I stoned as if it struck me with reality since you can't enjoy it if you can't try the food in the stall.

"Yeah, right," I said kaya napabalik ako sa kinauupuan dahil sa sinabi niya.

"I'm broke!!!" I shouted out of frustration. However, I ended up going to the town with or without money and Ash can't do anything since I run away from him before he restraint me.


Iniwasan kong mapadaan sa bakeshop dahil baka hindi ko mapigilang mang hingi para lang makakain since all of my money was gone and even my other stones were sold or I used for something. I came back here without anything on hand except for Ash and my personal things such as my bandages, one old shirt, and pants that are smaller since I can't afford to buy new clothes as I check my purse na walang laman kulang nalang ay may lumabas na paruparo. Nagtingin tingin nalang ako sa mga tindihan dahil parang ilang taon akong nawala. 


'Master, just go back to the Collins state and take the lady to buy you clothes since you look like a beggar.' Ash said to through mind communication.

"No, I still have some shame so I will not do that." I said, kaya napatingin tuloy ang mga nagtitinda dahil napalakas ang pagkakasabi ko.

'Mom, is he okay?' 

'Shh, Let's go,'


'See? Even the child can distinguish,' He said, at naiimagine ko ang reaksyon niyang napapataas balikat at disappointment.

"Yes, and I don't care," sagot ko sa kanya pero nasa isip ko lang.


'Good news, Master. The lady of the state is nearby so take this opportunity,' He said.


"No, I will go to her tonight, not now," sabi ko at tumalon sa may puno para tignan kung saan ako pupunta without bumping into Lady Collins since I plan to enjoy my day before I go back.

'Master is so stubborn.' He said, and I am sure he is shaking his head while saying that.

"Thank you for the compliment," I said as I look for Lady Collins, and she was really near so I went the opposite way.

'Master, I am not complimenting you,' He said as I jumped to the bush but unfortunately, may nadaganan akong tao.

'Master, someone is there--'

"I'm so sorry?!" I said as I get up and I look the person at halos mapatumba ulit ako.

'I told you someone is there,' He said to me pero hindi ko na siya pinansin.


"What a reckless fellow we have here, I assume that you are ready for punishment," He said habang hawak ang buhok niya na nakayuko as he looks at me, and he was surprised when our eyes meet.


"A-avy?! what's with your clothes?" He asks as he gets up from the ground.

"H-hello, Marquess Alfinus. I am very sorry." I awkwardly greeted him and he just looks at me, or I should say he is inspecting me from head to toe since I really look like a beggar dahil luma na ang damit ko at may mga punit pa ang manggas.
