The Chronicle of Aurelia Aurelius

Chapter 9

"You cannot fall asleep, huh??" An unknown voice came from in front of the bed..

I got up from laying in the bed...

"Who are you?? And where are you?" I asked

"Hmmmm I wonder who I am..."

I took a look in front of me, and I saw a figure in front of me. I tried to focus on that figure...

"Don't try to focus on me because....-"

I was surprised when I could focus on that figure..

"I don't have any appearance.." it said.

I just saw a bright white human figure without any appearance..

"What are you?" I asked.

"Hoo, you changed the question from who to what, after you saw me.."

It came closer to me..every step from it closer to me, made me so anxious..Until it reached beside me, and it leaned in front of my face..

"You are an interesting one..." It said..

Suddenly, I saw a dark smile in it faceless face...made me freak out and wanted to scream of fear.

Immediately the figure shut my mouth with its hand, I kept struggling to let its hand off me.

"Just relax, don't be scared of me, I'm here not hurting you."

For some no reason, suddenly I felt so relaxed...after that it released its hand from my mouth

"So, what are you? What are you doing in my room?"

The figure walked out from me, and toward the center of the room.

"I'm here, because I just want to look you closer and observe you a little bit.."

"Look at me? and observe me? What are you talking about?"

"Hmmmm ... .maybe—" the figure slowly disappeared into thin air "Hope we meet again, because my time is going up....Aurelia or ot–." The figure was gone without a trace in front of me.

"What the hell was happening? And what was that figure?" I laid back down in the bed "it said to look closer at me and observe me, what did it mean? What is it going to do to me?"

I tried not to overthink about it, and closed my eyes....

In these 6 days had been passed, nothing happened. The nightmare never came back in these 6 days, even Sofia kept asking me if the nightmare came back or not, I just answered it. My dream was about strolling in the city, when my mother and father invited me. The voice that emitted inside my head did not come back too, and Sofia kept asking about that too..The important one was the figure, it never came back to meet me again even if it said hope to meet me again..

For 6 days, first I apologized to Lady Octavi for hurted them, and she kept saying that it was her fault...and I just learnt about anything from Lady Octavi...I was aware of how the calendar worked. It used NE or New Era, right now it was on 754 NE...A year consisted of 12 months with each month consisting of 30 days..

The condition of the 4 children was better, right now, they worked as servants in my household, they lived in servant's quarters with other servants. When they were introduced to the little two, immediately the little two were really well accepted. The oldest boy was named Felix, he was the same age as Aurelio.
