~Priscilla~( March 20 79AD):
Judging by his expression, he must have recognised Augustus.
"Who is this, Agony? Why is he holding your hand in front of your husband?!"
Agony?! It's Mahogany!!! f you!
"He's my brother!", I said quickly.
"Brother... But why does he have black hair while you have red?"
"My father has black hair, sir."
"Oh that makes sense..But only when both parents have red hair, can they have kids with red hair... When your father has black hair, how come you have red hair?"
"Though they never mentioned it, I knew I was adopted... But they treated me like their own daughter..."
"Ohhh I get it..."
I could have given another big explanation. I could have said, parents with the redhead gene could have redhead kids... Like, even if both the parents have black hair, but they have the genetics of the redheads (ancestral) they can have a child with red hair. But there's too much explaining to do...
"Still, you are adopted. So don't be too close to him."
"Oh sir, we still see each other as siblings only!!"
"Fine. But what is he doing here? I don't remember hiring him!"
He's pretty sharp.
"No sir, he has no home to stay... So I decided to share my room with him... Even though the bed can only fit 2 of us, we can manage!!"
He left without asking further questions... THANK GOD!!!
Dusan turned to me. "Hey I've been sleeping on the floor the whole time, you know?! When did I ever fit in that bed!! Even when it was just you and me, you gave me no place!!"
Ohh poor fellow!!
"Okay!!", I said. "From today onwards Augy can take the floor!"
"I like the idea!!", Dusan grinned.
"Very bad idea...", Augy grumbled.
I've gotten really used to them, that I didn't even mind them sharing the same bed. Usually when I sleep with boys... It never went well, you can say... Once I git hysterical, that I started throwing stuff at a boy (during a camping trip) when he layed beside me in the tent (we had to share the same tent). Poor fellow!!
"I'll be visiting, Austin tonight!", Dusan said and left. Augustus happily took the chance to grab me by my hand and... I am sure you know what happened next. Yes, he kissed me. But this time it wasn't just the normal light kiss that he usually gave! It went deeper. He put his tongue into my mouth!
"What are you doing!", I screamed as I pushed him back. He turned his face away.
"I love you Pris, and I mean it! I am not joking!", He then looked at me. "What do you want me to do to make you love me back?!"
"I don't belong to this place! I have my home and I wish to return back!"
I know. It's a typical dialogue that any time traveled girl would say, but it's TRUEE!! Even though, I don't care about my uncle, I have my friends who I miss dearly! And phones of course!
"Please!!", He begged. "After I take over my position, I'll be rich!! I can satisfy you with anything!! I don't even need to take in concubines like the king! You will be my eye!"
I really liked that offer... But he can't give me phones!!
"What about the other eye?", I said.
He let out a dry laugh.
"One will be your emotions and the other will be your body! I'll protect it, and make sure it has no damage!"
Awee that was soo sweet!!
"But I'll have to go back sooner or later!", I said.
"Then I'll leave everything thing here and come back with you there?"
My mouth dropped in shock. He was willing to go to such an extent just to be with me!! But why?
"What do you even see in me that you're willing to leave everything behind?!", I asked in disbelief.
"I see a sweet funny girl who is a little short tempered."
I blushed. "Impossible."
"But it's true!", He protested.
