Moksha

(8) s.e

“Third prince will surely going to get mad at you again, Prince Helios!” The butler frustratedly scolded me,

I gritted my teeth, “Who cares? I told you already, i have nothing else to learn!” I argued,

Can't he just leave me alone? Who wants to be tutored if you already know the things that they're teaching you,

But they won't listen!

“Prince Helios, please. Just listen to me.” The butler begged,

But i could care less, so I turned away from him and started running away.

A smirk played on my lips, if they won't leave me alone, then i'm the one who's going to leave!

“Prince Helios!”

I heard the butler called out for me desperately but i've already gone too far,

I slowed down and as i reach the end of the wall, in front of me is a big door. I'm about to open it when suddenly it opens from outside,

The door wide opened revealing a serious looking man, the wind around him seems calm which is not likely of him,

He's about to step in when he spotted me looking at him warily,

What is this? This is not him at all, third brother is not like this.

He looked me and said, “Running away from your tutors again?”

I don't know what to answer, so i put my head down. He will surely scold me this time again,

Seconds passed, he just hummed and passed by me as if he said nothing.

I followed his steps until he came across the butler who immediately bow down to greet him,

“Third prince, welcome back. How was your...visit on your fiance...?” The butler asked, he's hesitated but still continued to asked out of curiosity.

Third brother smiled crazily then put his left thumb under his chin like recalling something event,

Wait, third brother smiled?! Just what in the earth is happening? Even the butler is stunned.

I know that we used our vision to spy on his fiance and it turned out good, i almost want my sister-in-law on my hands but later on changed my mind coz i thought it's not worth it,

But why was he acting like this just after seeing and talking (?) to her?

“Hm, it's alright.” He answered,

Knowing my brother for years, what he mean by alright is AMAZING!

I have to see about what he mean alright.

I have to see it my self.

Why my brother is acting like not himself after visiting my soon to be sister-in-law,

Tomorrow i'll go there.

And i'm totally here now.

Sneaking out of the castle is not easy but my curiosity is killing my mind,

The sun is about to rise soon, my shadow is absent. Standing in front of the duke's mansion,

To be exact, in front of my sister-in-law room. Well, her room is on the second floor so not exactly in front,

Whatever, my nerves are excited to meet her in person. I smiled innocently and move my hand upright, and released a magnificent power,

Enough to blow up my soon-to-be sister's in law sliding window, along with some of her wall.

Surprisingly, i didn't hear a shout or something but nevermind that.

I jumped in her room and nonchalantly walked in like i own this place, smiling cheeks to cheeks,

“Sorry for the intrusion~” I said childishly and smiled even more,

The dust coming from the explosion is everywhere but that's not enough to not let me see a lady being carried by a man,

Who looked like will kill me anytime if i make a move or something,

He's covered with black clothes and have black mask like an assassin but his aura says otherwise that he is not,

“A-re~? who's this bug that carrying my Sister-in-law?” I asked while still smiling,

Of course i know the face of my sister-in-law, even though i can't fully see her face because of the dust. I know by just feeling it that she's Ophelia,

“Kyrios V.” The masked guy asked, ready to fight me off,

Kyrios V? So Ophelia is his master? But what stands for V? I'm sure that sister-in-law told him to call her that,

but instead of answering. Sister-in-law ordered him,

“Qui, put me down.” And he immediately followed like a good dog,

Sister-in-law stood up straight and i thought she's going to asked me multiple questions, but after a minute, she just stood there.

Alone in her own world, she's really unique ha.

So what i did? Of course, i fastly gone near her and whispered in her ear,

“Sister-in-law~” I teased,

But who knew that she will punch me right on my left eye out of shocked.

A lot more happened after that time, in just a little time, i got to know sister-in-law.

She's a girl who will make you die out of curiosity, she have her own world to the point that she doesn't care about things around her,

Like me, i thought she will scold me, be angry at me for acting like a child but she doesn't care and just want me to leave something like that,

Now i know why my brother is acting like that, aside from Ophelia's goddess look, she's a girl who won't look at others with interest and that sparks the interest of brother who grow up to be the most admired person.

When my brother touched Ophelia, i just got this urge to protect her. Even on my own brother, my feelings got the best out of me when i started answering angrily my brother.

I want to punch him right on his face when he didn't even consider sister-in-law's thinking and feeling about being touched!

Hey! I touched sister-in-law and that didn't turned out to be alright, i was offended when she started wiping her hands like i am some sort of dirt!

Well, it's okay. The point here is, i feel connected to sister-in-law on god who knows reason. And one thing i want to do is...

Protect her at all cost.
