I will save my villainous brother no matter what!

Chapter 7

The prince lying fainted on the ground, the heroine staring at me with a dumbfounded expression, Laceszra and her sister hugging each other tightly, also not letting a single word out of their mouths and someone's voice echoing through the ball room.

"Someone tried to assassinate the prince!!!"

While slowly moving my head around, I tried to process what I just did... Should I just act like I don't know anything?... it's useless... I'm imagining kicking the dagger away and then slowly fainting, but I bet that won't save me right now...
How did such a huge misunderstanding happen? And why did it have to happen to me?

In my head, I'm crying and praying to god...All I wanted to do was meet Kaith and stop him from attempting murder...

[...]

...but now I'm sitting in a prison cell.

It's actually quite comfortable here~. People joyfully screaming (out of pain), the smell of rocks (and vomit and piss) and people talking to me (while showing me death signals)...Who am I kidding?! I wanna go home *cries*!!!!!!

" You know, I was going to meet my brother for the first time today...hic...hic...but now I'm suddenly here...hic...hic...and I didn't even do anything..." I told the masculine guy, who was sending me death signals the whole time, while crying and wiping away my tears with my dress.

After a long silence, the guy started to cry, too.

"I was going to propose to a girl I really liked today... BUT SHE RAN AWAY CRYING... and then she reported me saying that I tried to kill her!!!" The guy got overly emotional talking about what happened to him.

While ripping a piece off of my dress and giving it to him, I stopped crying and started patting his head.

"There, there...how long did you know her?" I asked him.

"I met her for the first time that day... *sniff*" He declared, as he wiped away his tears with the cloth I gave him.

"Huh?! And you proposed to her right away?! No wonder, you got rejected, sweetie. You have to slowly get to know her first, that's the basics of the basics and you don't even know that...*shakes head at him*" I said, even though I've never kissed or liked anyone in my entire life.

The man started to cry again and this time even louder than before. Looks can really be deceiving. This guy is covered in bruises from head to toe and he's built up like a monster, but here he is crying his eyes out like a baby, while I'm here cheering him up. I should be the one crying!!

Afterwards, all the prisoners started to tell me about their stories, while I gave them advice.
[" We're all friends now~"] I thought, while bumping my head against the wall and kicking it. This isn't the time to be friends with everyone. I need to find a way to get out of here!

I have to find out, if Kaith is alright. What if the event already happened and Kaith has already been exiled?! What if the heroine chose another route and Kaith is actually killed?!

*inhales deeply while putting her hand on her mouth* What if...what if...what if I will never see Kaith again?!?!?

*runs against the iron bars*

"Hello!!! Please let me out!!!! Is anyone there?!?! I think my brother is going to die!!!" I shouted throughout the room, while everyone just stared at me.

That's it! In my previous life, I watched a video once about opening locks with a hair pin, because I accidentally locked myself out of the house, while my key was inside...in the end, my brother came home and opened the door, but I'm sure I can do it in this life!

As I stretched my arms and then eventually removed the pins from my hair and started to work on my escape, everyone in prison stared at me with an anticipating look.

[...] three hours later

"Why won't it work...*cries*" I said, while sitting in a corner and crying.

This is, in fact, the worst day of my life. Just as I thought that, a knight came and started to open my prison cell door.

"You may leave now." The knight announced.

What is going on?
