Escape of Freedom [ female reader x Eiser Leinz Grayan ]

Ch11. Trust

I brought it up to Ealfrida and Eduart. They were listening to my ideas carefully before Eal decided to speak up first "We could help you with that but are you going to help too? also what about the cost? If we need to depend on this bakery income, I don't think we can do it"

I understand what she is saying so I was doing some thinking.

Should I ask for my parents help? But they.....won't agreed to this.... helping people that won't bring them benefit aren't really their favor.

What about grandma? I think she will help but at the same time.....my father will still know it since he was the one who managed it all. The other person that could help me is Eiser but about him.......I don't want to keep depending on him like that. I let out a sigh to myself, looking at the two siblings "Should I work part time? at other shops?" Eduart looked at Ealfrida before he shake his head "are you crazy? what if your parents hears about it? Won't they forbidden you from coming out of house again?"

"But I am living with Eiser so I doubt it......" Ealfrida shake her head "No, I won't allow it. There's too many risks"

Then, what can we do? I rubbed my forehead at the headache I get for thinking so hard. I don't understand why this is such a hard task to do. I guess I should just go and ask for my parents help. I can handle the curses and harsh words that they will said. It's not like this is the first time I ever do things differently than their style.

I decided to not tell Eduart and Ealfrida because I know that they will against it. They are probably the only people who hate it when my parents said harsh words to me.

"Let's just go and open the bakery for now" I suggested, standing up and head to turn the sign at the bakery.

After having dinner with the two siblings, I decided to head back home. The ideas of helping those poor people at the alley still stuck in my head. I want to help them so much but I still don't know to coax my parents about this.

Should I talk about this with Selena?

But....she has the same head as my parents though. She probably won't agreed to it at all.

I pushed the door of the manor opened and get inside. On the way to my room, I was greeted by some servants that I walk passed by but that's all. Then, I come across Eiser's study room. He probably inside there doing his work as usual. Did he even eat? I want to get inside and ask but I remember that I don't want to involve myself with him anymore.

I don't want to get hurt.

I was about to walk away when the door opened suddenly. I immediately met eyes with Raul, who was coming out from the room. As soon as he saw me, he bowed his head "goodnight, Mrs. Serenerity" he greeted me in a very formal way.

I smiled back at him, "goodnight for you too" I was about to leave when someone called my name out. "Y/n?" I turned myself, looking at him with polite smile "goodnight for you too, Eiser" he was behind Raul, coming out of the room after Raul.

I turned myself and leaves with a throbbing heart.

Just shut up. I don't want him to notice something is wrong. Act normal. Be normal.

Eiser watches as she walks away. He noticed something is wrong and she isn't acting as herself but Eiser don't want to ask. He doesn't want to bother himself with another matter.

Raul looked at Eiser before speaking up "is Mrs. Serenerity is doing fine?" he asked Eiser who doesn't change his face expression. "She doesn't look like she is doing to me" Raul added, before starts to walk again. Eiser let out a small sigh and followed behind Raul soon enough.

I lay myself down on the bed, taking up most space since I decided to spread myself out. How should I talk about it? I know that mother and father won't just agreed with it like that so I guess I should offer something in return right?

But what can I offer?

I groaned, stuffing my face into the pillow.

"Why didn't I have anything to offer?"

------>

The door of my ride was opened by one of the servants at my parent's house. I take a deep breath before step outside. I walked through the big garden fill with colorful flowers and get into the house. I was told by the servant that my father has been waiting for my arrival since I told him that I have something to ask for him.

Soon, I finally come face to face to my father. He was reading the newspaper and putting it down as soon as he noticed my presence. Mother stand up to greet me and hugged me. I hugged her back and bowed at my father who was watching.

"How are you? Doing well?" Mother asked, scanning my body over.

"I am doing fine, mother" She smiles at me and sat back down next to father.

"Why are you coming home today?" Father asked, focusing at my words. I gulped down empty air, looking at my parents "Can I ask you guys help?" Mother looked at Father before he looked at me "what is it?"

"There's an alley at the city. In there, there's many starving people. They are all coming from all ages and to survive, they have been stealing a lot so.....I thought I want a bit fund so that I can give them foods even for a bit......" I patheticly said those words to my parents who were slowly frowning at it.

"For what reason?" Father asked, glaring at me.

"....I just feel bad for them....."

"Y/n, didn't we always told you that if this is the way you are thinking always, you will never survive in a harsh world" Mother interrupted father, looking at me before sighing "did everything we tell you, you throw them all away?" I shake my head, "It's not like that, mother. But......I can't turn blind eye at them when I know about it" I approached them, kneeling infront of them.

"Please........I promised you that I will do anything you tell me to do but please help me with this" Father stand up before looking down at me "over my dead body. I won't let your idiocity ruin our family. This is why I can't trust you at all" he said and leaves the room.

Mother stand up too before caress my head "Y/n, don't be stubborn. Let this absurd idea go and go home" she said and followed after father. I punched the sofa at how frusrating I get.

I stand back up and went out of the house. I get inside the car and headed home almost immediately.

Why did father never see eye an eye with me? why can't he just agree? Never trust me? Since when he ever did? Ever since I was born, is there a moment that he trust me?

Tears started to slipping out of my eyes. Hoping that the driver won't said anything about it, I let it out. The sorrow that I feel inside my heart, I let it out.

Without me realizing, we already arrived at home. I wiped my tears with my sleeve before headed out. I immediately headed to the garden, hoping to heal from this wound in my heart that slowly opening up. I sat down on the grass, looking up at the sky.

What else can I do?

......Jewellery!! I can sold them all off. I sat up and rushed inside to my bedroom. That is it. I am sure this is enough for the fund. I smile at the thought. This is the least thing I could do but it's okay. Those kids deserve it more.

I opened the door to the bedroom and I saw Eiser standing right infront of the closet........shirtless.

I jumped at the sight, closing my eyes almost immediately but I still already saw everything. His manly body and.......

"I am sorry!! I dont know you are here!"

"I am done" he said and when I open my eyes, I saw him already dressed. I cleared my throat "I will knocked next time" He hummed at that, before wearing his wrist watch and walked over to me. "This is your bedroom so you can do whatever you want" he said and out of sudden, I saw he is holding out a tissue.

"I am heading out first" he said as soon as I grabbed the tissue.

Did I still have tears and snorts on my face? How did he knows?
