An intimidated breakfast finished, looking at Orianna walking deliberately, she's pointing forward on her thin metal stick towards her immense walk-in closet. Seeing her like that makes a deep cut inside me and at the same time asking, What happened to her if she had an accident? Ended up going blind? Or she is born blind? Did she ever have a chance to see the world? I wanted her to know that she would be able to see, and I would be the last person to be excited for her.
"Kacey come here please..." she softly called my name, it was like a sound of an angel calling my name. Quickly, I felt disregarding my issues and problems in the world." I'm coming, miss..." I replied straight away, my feet quickly, almost rushing towards her.
"Is there anything you want me to do, miss?" I asked, a little sound of concern in her voice, holding one of the brass handles in drawers waiting." Will you rearrange this one, Kacey? she said."? My pleasure to help you, miss. "I replied, she motioned, reaching my hand, seeing it not being reluctant; I handheld it.
After the want of a feeling of assurance and comfort, she instantly released my hands, watching her tracing her fingers on each corner of the drawer, and she stopped. She glides and picks a book, touching those edges and embossing letter markings on its cover, accustoming the book. I saw something slid between pages. It seemed a dry leaf, not much a familiar one. Ugh! I can't help this place; everywhere I looked, it seems dull and dry, but it is her world now, seeing if she pulled that dry leaf out from those pages. I'm here now, seeing a dry weed. Ugh! F* me... This is so weird... Why does she have those?
"Come follow me," she said, raising her hand for me to hold her. I held her hand slowly, and we reached the balcony and stood there with the book in her hand, entailing the dry of a weed.
"Did you meet the people around the house, Kacey?" She asked like she was seeing her.
"Yes, Roman, your butler, her wife Nilde, the chef, the gardener, and the two guards—Is there anything I've missed? " She said innocently.
"No, Kacey, you mention it all except the driver, but it's perfect you pay attention to everything," she replied, inhaling the dry leaves and following a little of a smile.
"I'm sorry if I ask, but can I touch your arms, Kacey? " A reluctant feeling, but part of me decided to allow her to guide her hands on my left arm. She gently glides her fingers on my skin like she's seeing it, tracing each curve on it.
"I'm sorry, but Roman describes perfectly what is possible as he could," she explained gently, serenading ears with her calm and soft voice.
"I'm willing to tell Orianna if you could ask me how I do look like. I hide my inks in my workplaces, but in here I feel like I don't have to, she said, expressing herself with confidence.
"You don't have to, but I want to ask you something: Have you heard that weeds are disguising themselves as flowers? Uh,"" I'm sorry, but I only see a dry leaf, Orianna... I don't judge if it's a weed or not; all I see is a dead leaf," she said, filling out on her." Some people don't see woods in trees, she muttered in her ear, standing next to her.
"Kacey, if I would be able to see, I won't judge you as who you are, same as this dry weed, "she added, looking away blankly towards the lake view in front of her room. The only scenery that is not dead and dry.
"No offense to the weeds, but weeds determined to be as green, the same as your eyes, Orianna..." said enthralled by her looking away, she held the tip of it. "I can imagine still perfect Kacey," said twirling the leaves gently." You can't defy nature, Kacey. "Sad emotion came out, and she stopped for a while. A weird feeling I felt that moment gushing through my senses and on my mind. I felt tense when she was near; she has a deep persona.
"Orianna, I'm sorry, but I need to go," she said, gently rubbing her thumb, holding on to her hand. "Kacey, I want you to organize my room tomorrow and wash my clothes. "She moved closer to Kacey's mandate; she can't help but feel flickering. Their cheeks almost fondled. Kacey gently pressed her lips towards her.
"Uh... I'm sorry, miss... I... can't help me; I didn't mean— "mumbled startled, but Orianna gently clasped her neck, narrowing down, moving closer towards her. Kacey's arms automatically wrapped on her waist, "don't be sorry..." she whispered.
After a minute, they stood still. Kacey's arms lay in her waist; nonetheless, no one spoke a single word or bothered their palms and fingers." Kacey..." she muttered, lips biting on her own. Kacey saw it; she finds it cute and sexy, but she even pretends not to be bothered to kiss her back. Instead, Kacey kissed her once again softly; she can't help herself, not till she loses and concedes those kisses bestowed upon her.
"Excuse me, miss... your training coach has arrived; time to exercise," Roman told her, clearing his throat, hands on his back.
* * *
I was about to leave, but I halted and sat down on the staircase at the back of the mansion, snagging my breath to feel the music and breath as far as my lungs could hold; I felt so tired. I will be dealing with my reality when I get home; I will deal with that life again. Likewise, I felt my eyes go heavily closed as my breath went deeper and thicker but lost consciousness.
" Kacey... Kacey... hey! " said a familiar voice awakes me and someone gently stroked my forehead down to my cheeks." Kacey, are you okay?" I recognized her immediately, but my throat is too dry to speak. I know she's worrying from the sound of her, for all I know.
A single nod replied, "No, you're not your burning! "said, placing her hands on my forehead, panicked, worrying.
"No, I'm good, Miss. I have to go; I'm late," Kacey said." "Hey,"" Kacey, here you will be fine," listening to the comforting soft voice of hers, the last thing I remember before I was transmitted, I know it's him, Roman, who carries me.
" Madam... I mean miss..." "Roman corrected himself, awkwardly.
"Is she okay? "She said Roman sees; she gritted her teeth.
"Yes, miss, my wife Nilde is taking good care of her. She had a fever, but she is fine now, sleeping," said with his confirmation.
"Roman, I wanted to have a few discussions with my doctor," she said, folding her arms, tilting her head, and closing her eyes, releasing her deep breath.
"Miss... looks like you already decided, "Roman said, but Orianna nodded, looking away; her body language has answers for him; he knows her very well.
"There's a limited timetable that has been given to me, and I need to conform; if not, I'll lose it forever," she said with a little detail, but she never explained further, folding her arms on her chest.
"I'm sorry, miss, not my business, but is it her? Am I correct...? " Roman simply glanced where Kacey was lying on the bed. They stood still near the balcony door.
"I feel it would be better not to answer that, Roman; you knew me well. You were like a father to me, but not bound by blood. But you manage to make me feel more than that, both of you with your wife, Nilde. "She confided the feeling of owning them that much.
"I remember how you looked like Roman, including Nilde, before this happened," she said finally, single tears tumbling through her cheeks.
"Miss... May I? " Nilde whispered, hugging her, and she did hug her back. "Thank you, Nilde... "she said. "Orianna, you were like my daughter. I wanted to say that she's worth it... You can train her..." Nilde whispered, stroking her back, making her feel comfortable.
"Wait... Nilde... are you serious? " She releases her arms from hugging Nilde, blankly confused. "Take it from me, Sweetheart, she is...worth it." She gave her comfort and validation for a person who cares for her deeply.
"Is she... Nilde?" A weary and confused voice, those stares are blanked, but Nilde immediately cupped her chin, kissing her forehead.
"Yes... She does, sweetheart..." whispering, pressing her palms, making her feel comfortable, "now go, no more holding back. I will tell her when.
"Yes... She does, sweetheart..." whispering, pressing her palms, making her feel comfortable. "Now go, no more holding back; I will tell her when she wakes up. Keeping her task and schedules given, Nilde drying her tears falls from her cheeks and hugging her again.
