Life Beyond the Doors

Chapter 16 : Poison drink

"Sighhhhhhhhhh........"

.
.
Sasha got irritated, "Marlin , like how many times are you gonna sigh and why are you in my room in the first place ..?"

.
.
"Well, I got bored . And Im thinking about something .."

Sasha called for a maid to tidy her hair . In the early morning Marlin came to her home the very next day after the yesterday night party . No one seemed to be bothered because everyone treats Marlin as their own daughter especially her parents . Sasha has an older brother but he's involved in business so he's out of home.

So Marlin can come and go anytime .

"Its actually maybe Prince Ethan might be assassinated tonight at the last party ball.."

Sasha was taking a sip of her favourite coffee while she spat hearing that-

"Don't tell me , Marlin you....", Sasha got scared .

"What the heck, NO!", Marlin tried to clear the misunderstanding. "Why would i try to kill my Prince Charming..?!"

~Silence~

Ah shit . What did i spilled out ...

.
.
.
Sasha looked at Marlin with a shocked expression and told her maid to leave them alone. She then locked the door and holds Marlins shoulders.

"I think we both have a long way to talk don't we", Sasha smirked.

"Ha....ha...", Marlin reverted her eyes.

~After 2 hours~

"So basically the guy you like is Prince Ethan?", Sasha asked with curiosity.

"Its not like.. more like i admire his face because he's totally my type", Marlin blushed.

.
.
.
"You don't even understand the look on your face that you're in love with him but yet you're denying the fact, Marlin. Anyone who looks at you will see how much you like him to the point you put your best friend's love life at stake ...", Sasha thought.

"But aren't the twins both look the same?", Sasha asked again .

"Yes.. but he's different", Marlin started fidgeting her fingers while thinking of him.

After hearing that Sasha stood up while being determined . She ought to forgive Marlin for whatever she did ; since she did as a maiden of love . Her friend is experiencing this for the first time so she's glad.

"Aren't you gonna plan then? Tonight might be the last time you see since he doesn't show himself often. So you should profuse your feelings to him!!"

Marlin didn't paid attention to the last sentence rather she raised her hand, "Shouldn't saving him would be the first priority?"

"Oh yeah that too...", Sasha remembered.
.

.
.
The time for the ball started . Everyone started getting ready for the ball. As usual Marlin also got worried what to do. She's like should she dress up pretty to catch his attention or should she be different from other girls to make him notice her.

Loren shouted, "Sister , are you ready? Or did you liked staying at home yesterday too much that you want to stay again tonight?"

Marlin shouted back, "No, no . Im ready . Cominggg!"

At one point she was about to trip. But she hold onto her dress firmly while being determined that she would succeed tonight . Her family didn't get to know about her disguise plan yesterday and since todays the last day of the party ; they agreed to let her go so .
Here she goes-
