Chapter 17:

Things had change
<><><>

Cold wind blow passed her long hair, Merrie also just notice how long it is. It wouldn't gotten long for just a few days, of course it won't.... But for 2 year and a half....

"I've been asleep for....how long?" She motion her hand exaggeratedly, in her heart she was hoping that she heard it wrong.

Everyone's smile immediately disappeared. No one was willing to speak out for a while.

"... it's true." Liam said with a frown.

Merrie pupil's tremble.

"Hahaha, I should stop passing out everytime." Merrie look at her reflection, with her finger caressing her face.

Apparently, she fainted right after she found out that she skip 2 and a half years of her lifetime, shocking everyone present. Doctor immediately called and give a small explanation that her body's still weak and receiving that news was a heavy blow for her.

Lisya wear a helpless frown said, "No M'lady, you should do so. If my fault, if I was capable enough we wouldn't had come to this...." Lisya said as she comb Merrie's hair.

Merrie took a glance at Lisya's face, a face full of guilt and pain. Merrie purposely move her hand around so that it's harder to do her hair and distract her. "It's not your fault. You're not a god, you shouldn't know what will happen." She turn to look at her, "Lisya it's not your fault."

"But... If I was there-"

Merrie cut in her words, "If YOU were there, you might definitely be the one who block the dagger instead of Liam and I still be shifting the curse to me." The tone of her voice were as if she's staging the fact.

"Liam was injured, I can knock him before he could do anything!" Lisya still couldn't except it.

Merrie lean her head on her hand, "He have a special kind of Energy Stone that can make him so fast that it's hard to stop him from stabbing me but to have someone blocking it."

This time, Lisya was silent. She always not good at coming up with an excuse. Merrie smile, knowing that something just never change. "Ok, let's not talk about it for now. Let's talk about something more important."

Lisya blink, "Like what M'lady?"

"Like my appearance! Who is this bish on the mirror???!" She slam the make up table.

'Bish?' Lisya thought, she shake that thought. She replied, "M'lady that's you."

Merrie look at her with a serious face, "Is it really me or is it me who hallucinate a beautiful goddess on it? And also, where's the scar if it's really me???!"

On the mirror was a beautiful face of a young lady with a silky smooth skin, so smooth that it's reflect the light, like it's almost impossible for it to be her wounded skin. It seems like the previous red hair lost it's pigment and the hair now coloured in soft pastel pink.

The only reason why she's not that surprised that she might faint again, was she already got a free trial of beauty before, well technically. Through Anatel, who's born with the same face as Merrie, which is still strange but she had experience something stranger.

Her hair though, she's surprised to see that her straight hair is now have a curly edge, it's a beautiful curves so she didn't mind. The changes in her appearance made it seems like she's a completely different person.
