Chapter 28


Walking into a bumpy street where I followed my bodyguard, I almost surrender for this long walk we did. I've been walking in this rocky street for what---Two hours! But when I almost chicken out, I think of those people who walk in this bouldered street makes my heart soft.

Thinking of them having so much sweat on their forehead as they walk here because of the word 'lack of money'. I didn't breakdown. Instead, thinking those people makes me puffed up even more to walk. Maybe this is the sign that I could travel the world. By my own strength. With no one guiding me. Well, guiding the way of course, my bodyguard.

As I tap my Bodyguard's shoulder, I saw how his eyebrow raised.

"Where 'to?" I asked while panting heavily. When he didn't even answer my question, I just touch my pouch to support my shaking hands.

I pouted. Why won't he even try to talk? Preserving his aroma smelled mouth? While walking at his side, sliding both of my arms sideways, he frowned. I smirked. Irritating him does work!

"What do you want?" He asked aggressively. My smiled faded when I thought he'll just look at me.

When I thought simple things will be just simple. I was wrong. Even catching his eyes to meet mine is hard. Just by taming him isn't easy at all. The most difficult things to even encounter him: His eyes.

"Nothing..." I said, sounding dismal. I just shake my head when I thought a lot of ways to make him look at me. Well, I just sound so desperate so I let him be.

Don't get me wrong, I don't like him. I'm not even interested at him or even think about him and...and...Jeez. Just stop talking to yourself. You sound so weird.

Staring at the rocks while I step into them, I suddenly bump into a rough hard---back! I look over and saw my Bodyguard towering me. I just saw his back. He did not look. For the ninth time.

"Sorry..." I said softly while rubbing my forehead. Now it's red! He really is so muscular. No wonder how many times he worked out a day?

I almost get embarrassed once again when I continually walk forward when he walked into the opposite way.

"Pst! Where are you going---" And there was it. A big mansion.

Alchemilla and lovely blossomed flowers circled the whole Big Mansion. It was crimson, but I blink twice, it was the trees. The house was dirty white and brown line on the edge. The top was pointy as you can only see this roof in a castle. It may be a castle.

"What...are we doing...here?" I asked slowly. Clearly, I sound so amused by what I saw. It's a living castle! Well, our house may look like a palace but we're not princesses. We only have royal blood. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Instead of answering, he just continues walking in there. What if some saw us? We'll be at jail for trespassing! I don't want to be stuck at jail yet! Worst, I'm not minor anymore! Unluckily, I'm now 19 and I'll be in jail! Oh my Gosh. Just thinking about it stinks!

"Oh, no, no, you're not going in there. T-that's illegal!" I pointed out. Why is he being so stubborn right now? I feel like I'm the one guarding him from harm.

He crooks his head. "You're being weird, Missy." He said while his eyes are fixed in the Mansion. I'm currently blocking his way to come in. Safety first before we get in jail.

"No! It's you who are being weird today! Can't you see? This place is restricted from people to come in. If you're finding a hotel, we could go east. The place is secluded with securities---" You see, my Bodyguard's grip ain't that gentle. Bloody hell it hurts!
