IN CINDERELLA'S ROOM
"Ella, my sweet innocent friend, now I know why are you still single," Henry said while holding his laughter
"What are you trying to say?" Cinderella asked while moving toward her bed
"That sweet innocent friend can't differentiate between love care and sister care," Henry said while on the chair beside the dressing table
"You dare to say those two words again, believe me, or not I will kill you," Cinderella said while keeping both of her hands on her waist and sitting straight
"Which love and sister?" Henry asked knowing exactly what she was talking about
In this world, Cinderella hates nothing more than someone calling sweet and innocent. She believes it destroys her image she thinks she is evil rather than angel, she shows you her brightest smile if you say her devil but do the opposite when you call her sweet...
"Not that before you said these two words," She explained
"Which sweet and innocent? Sorry I can't stop myself from you calling that because You are so cute," Saying Henry pinched both the cheeks of Cinderella
"Henry, leave my cheeks or believe I will send you in hell today," Saying this she showed him her hand which glowing like a fire but blue fire
Seeing it Henry jump in his to his feet and fell on his back. Henry could only be seen, touch by Cinderella in this world. Sometime when Cinderella doesn't have anything to win against him she shows him her power. Cinderella belongs to ghost catcher family which was removed by the community for a sin that took place 1000 years. But the power still runs in their family.
"Okay, okay keep that away. I know you love me very much," Henry said still on his back
"Wanna try," Cinderella asked while moving her hand in front of him which made him scurry away from her
"That's what I thought, Goodnight," She said and covered herself with a quilt
Cinderella just smile a little and hid her hand because she doesn't know to switch her power off. Actually, she doesn't even know how to use them, she just knows how to turn it on. Because after the death of her father her power was activated. Only, her family members know about this.
Henry got up from the floor and dusted imaginary dust from his ghost clothes. He smiles seeing her sleeping figure but his smile faded as soon as his eyes fall on her still glowing hand. Henry started murmuring something and suddenly his hand started glowing like fire but green fire. He started moving his hand in a circle and suddenly a bubble formed around Cinderella's bed and it was glowing as Henry's hand.
"I will protect you until, you realize your true identity, my silly friend," Henry said and got vanished in thin air
IN LIVING ROOM
After securing her room, Henry came into the living room, he just appeared out of nowhere. But he didn't care because no one could see him, leaving Cinderella. He sat on the long sofa and decided to lay on it for some time. But his peaceful moment was disturbed by maid gossips who just pass by him,
"Do you believe, he served the food to her," the passing maid said
"I wouldn't believe myself if I didn't watch it with my own eyes," Another maid said
Listening to this for 100th time today, he just got and started rubbing his forehead. The same talk was going on between guards too.
"Argh, aren't they tired of talking about the same thing, Leaving her everyone could see his affection towards her," Henry shouted in frustration
After the shout, he started remembering all the event that took place after Enrico wakes up from his slumber of sleep.
FLASHBACK THIS AFTERNOON
IN THE CAR
Enrico was woken from his sleep by continuous ringing of his phone, He removed his phone from his jacket pocket to see who disturbed his sleep. He looks at the caller id was his mom, he picked up and before he could say anything his mother started shouting,
"Enrico how could you do this," Mrs Carvalho shouted on her phone so loudly that Enrico has separate the phone from his ear for some time but he could still hear her shouts It was so loud that it disturbed Cinderella for a second but she went back to sleep
"What did I do this time?" Enrico asked once the shouts were slow
"You are asking what you did, seriously. Didn't I say to pick up Cinderella from the airport? Mrs Carvalho asked
"Yes," He said but before he says another word his mother bit him
"Then where are you? Poor girl must be looking for you at the airport, that she didn't even have time to pick her mother's phone
