Viarush

Chapter 29 {Frustration}

|intro|

[Brian: Humans' best way to express emotion is through words. But not simply just words, there's always a specific tone with it. They can say the same sentence with millions of different tones that make the meaning totally different. Tone always varies the meaning. A deaf who can't hear words but they can read it. But a deaf can never hear nor read or know the tone behind the words. That's why they always read peoples' expressions. Always analyse and focus on their eyes. But people's expressions towards deaf are always filled with frustration ~]

|29.1|
Noe: Sorry for coming so late! This is Noe, the Royal head of half Rusher~
And also sorry to say this but I'm here for the last time!
Veronica: (in shock)
Noe: I know I don't deserve to say but I'll resign from my position!
Veronica: No-Why!-?
Venus: (blank reaction) Hmm~
Good thing you know what you don't deserve to ask! Okay you may go now~
...
Noe: So are you accepting resignation?
Venus: Noh!
Noe: Why-!? Then why- (disbelief
Looks at Veronic for help but she gives a look "count me out!"
Deep breaths~)
Why not? Is there any reason behind your highness won't allow it?
Venus: The exact reason you're aware of-
Noe: (looks at Veronica) But I don't have any shina!
Veronica: (fazed) Still-?!
Noe: (looks at Venus) Yes! You've heard me right~ It's not like I want to but I've to quit! Because I am unable to express any shina which means I am not fitted for any half rusher let alone- (notices Venus' more focused on her work while being unfazed. Gets irritated by it.)
Your highness!-?
Venus: (looks at him then looks at time) Yeah I heard you,
(Organises the work papers and gets up)
It's okay if you can't do your main job (getting ready to go out) but you do have your side job which is piling up! (comes near) I'm kinda busy right now so meet me later soon. I've so much work for you! (Walks away) So don't think about running away from this as well!~
...
(Silence...)

Noe: (clenches fist) Ms. Veronica you're well aware enough of the fact how much I need to quit! So is there any way-
Veronica: Her highness- is such a persistent person! She hardly reneges on what she says. (Taps his shoulder) So you should give up on giving up on your job!~

[D.S]
(At the laboratory almost everyone's present)
Hazz looking at his weapon with dazzling eyes. Irene from beside with a unpleasant face)
Irene: Bigger doesn't mean better!
Hazz: (annoyed shoves her a little)
No one asked you!
Irene: Just saying..~
Hazz: <Ozaya> Can I take it out?
Irene: (smacks him) You ungrateful brat! How can you do that without her highness is present!
Hazz: Then can I touch-
Ozaya: Let's wait till her highness comes!
Hazz: (sulks a little)
Irene: (smack him again) Is this similar to mine?
Ozaya: Kind of-
Irene: Then why is it big? Does it vary depending on users hei- weight or something?
Ozaya: Not really ~ it's kinda more complicated. Has many functions!
So rather than practising it needs to be memorised properly!
Ozey: Can he do that tho~...?
(Juro and Luna looks at him)
Hazz: (smug nostrils) See? Mine one's special, it has so many functions! It's so much better than yours!!
Irene: (kneer kneer)
Hazz: But why isn't her highness coming!?
Irene: It's not like that at all!~ It has more functions because-
Hazz: How much do I've to wait-?
Irene: You're more incompeten-
Venus: Who told you to wait for me-?~
Hazz: YOUR HIGHNESS! (Runs)
Why are you so late~
Irene: (grabs her mouth) (what I was about to say!? I must've lost my mind!) (Slaps her mouth twice) (This! This is the problem!!)
Venus: Sorry I had some work!-
(Ozey, Ozaya, Irene, Luna & Juro gathers to greet)
Venus: Next time don't wait for me~
Ozaya: Understood!
Venus: Since everyone's here let's get started?~

|29.2|
(After noon. Venus completing her leftover works. Noe comes to visit again.)
Venus: (working, glance, working) You're here! If you just give me some time-
Noe: Your- (bows hard) HIGHNESS!
Can you plea- I be- g-
Venus: Your head!-
Noe: (stops)
Venus: Rise it. I can't hear you well~
Noe: (stand straight) I really need to quit and get a proper job!
I know I've done something unforgivable! But I cannot make my family go through any more farther because of what I've done! My apologies I cannot take the responsibility as a Royal head but I want to be more responsible as a family member!
So hope you'll accept my apology and resignation request!-
Venus: Are you seeking a specific job or specific amount of salary?
Noe: Pardon?
Venus: What if we provide both? Then will you be able to work here?
Noe: ... ... Why'd it be provided to me in the first place?
Venus: Mmm well ~ Maybe a repay of all the years you've served.
Noe: But you cannot be sure if I've ever served properly enough to be rewarded! At least not when you've literally witnessed my irresponsibility!
Venus: Well an ending doesn't describe the entire story!~
Noe: (grits) Still-
Venus: (looking at papers) You may doubt your own effort but I doubt you earned that title for free-
Noe: (clenches) Are you - by any chance-
Venus: (scribble scribble.)
Noe: messing with me-?-
Venus: (stops pen)
Noe: Is it because of absencing for the past few months!?
Venus: (looks at him) Can you see (taps table) this table?
Noe: (frowns) Pardon-?-
Venus: What about these? <papers>
Noe: (gets irritated) What do you-
Venus: I've to finish <working> all of these by tonight! If you still think I've enough time to mess around with you, well~ I can't change your thinking!
But does that really matter? Won't you accept the facilities even if I've ulterior motives? I thought you'd be ready to do any kind of job for family' sake!?
Noe: (flinch, cold sweat, eyes getting misty. And in a heavy voice) I-
Venus: Let's just stop wasting any more time and get to work already!
Noe: (heavy exhale, pale face with blank expression, gulps) Yes, your highness.

|29.3|
(After Irene, Hazz and Unok's training ended.)
Ozey: Hey you! <Luna> you may come now~
Ozaya: (phew) I'll be going first <Ozey>
Ozey: Good for you~
(Everyone leaving including Juro, Hazz and Irene.)
Irene: (side eyes, make faces to Luna) Why does have to be Mr. Ozey to train her!
Hazz: What? Why do you hate her for no reason?
Irene: No reason!? Huh! You'll soon hate her too! She always tries to interfere with everyone's work and acts like she is the only one who cares about her highness. (Side eye) When it was her fault what her highness went through last time. she should've guarded better!
Hazz: Huh?
Irene: Nothing! let's just go~

(Training starts)

Ozey: Since you know how control your
I don't need to help you with the basics right?
Okay let's start with making arrows which will fit your crossbow ~
Luna: (creates a enough perfect sized arrow)
Ozey: Nope! Again! Make it right!
Luna: (tries to make it more perfectly)
Ozey: No no! It's the color! Use anything other than gray!
Why'd you come to training if you're not feeling well~
Luna: That's.. not ... possible tho...
Ozey: Uggh annoying! Then let's just resume training when you're feeling a bit better-
Luna: In general! It's not possible
for me to have any other shina than gray!
Ozey: What! (Scoffs, laughing maniacally, smile fades) Don't tell me -
No way~
Do you by any chance have the same shina on the field? It's be better not!
Luna: What if yes-?
Ozey: Hey! Did you lose some brain cells? There's no way you wouldn't know unless you're completely unaware of the fact how dangerous it is!
How much it effects the brain! It can lead to any accident! You can't think straight-!
(Notices Luna concerned and being quiet)
You-! Really- didn't know!- Why- I mean ho- no! Hey, what about her highness!? Does she not know- (sees her avoiding eye contact) Heyy! Are you- ahhhh this so frustrating! (takes a deep breath)
Well does it matter to me?! As long as it's not effecting anything related to me!
So let's just keep a safe distance!

Stay away from me and my sister! Bear That In Mind!
Luna: (scowls)
Ozey: (points down at the weapon) Take it! Let's just call it off <training>
(Luna about to take the weapon)
Ozey: (pulls over the weapon) Ah! And you better fix your shina! You know handing over a weapon to you is just attempting an unwanted murder
that I don't wanna be a part of!
Luna: (snatch away weapon, about to leave)
Ozey: Be careful to not shoot people stead of Viarush with that negative shina of yours!
Luna: (halts)
Ozey: (walking) Ah right! (Chuckles) Mightn't be fully unwanted ~ (walks away and leaves)
Luna: (gulps, clenches and grips on the weapon)

[D.S]
(Venus at the office room, Veronica knocks and enters)
Veronica: (hand over some documents)
The interview's done. These are candidates for head healer.
Venus: Anyone stand out among them?
Veronica: Among them? Not particularly. But-
Venus: (Looks at Veronica)
Veronica: (takes out another paper, hand over it to Venus)
This person stands out no- please do hire him with a head healer alongside. He is required to be hired! He is certainly an outstanding strong and a really rare symbolic healer! Healers like him can hardly be found in a century! So we must not lose him!
Venus: Then we can just take him as head-?
Veronica: No-! We can't do that-
Venus: (Rises eyebrows) And why is that-?

|outro|
(Cleary in her chamber. Gets an anonymous feeling. Someone in a hood approaching.... Crunches brows in concern. Gather some shina in her right hand and makes a stick pin with it. Turns around, about to stab in the neck. Grabs her and prevents her from attacking!)

Person: Hey, come down!~ It's me-
(Takes off the hood. A boy with warm-pink long hair tied in ponytail)
