~Loli Can~
I was lost for a long time and when I found my way, you were slowly vanishing... to the point I don't know what to do but being lost once more...
My father is a butler, and my mother was a slave from another country. She was saved by the family my father working to. And I'm just the master's kid's playmate.
My father is a hero who saved his masters now and then.
However, my mother is ashamed, I am too, that is why I always got bullied in school or... in the mansion...
But no matter how much shame she brought, we can't hate her... because the love she gave to us was too much... So I bare the pain of accusations, pointing fingers, and physical abuse.
Until they started to attack my mom, I attack back without thinking about the consequences. Which almost made my father's job lose and banish our family.
Then you came... "Why would they go when she's my playmate? Besides, aren't you all been attacking her all this time? Why is it now that she stood up for once, she can't do the same? You must have forgotten she's my playmate and her father is this family's head butler."
"Guards! Take those people who hurt them and punish them the same way they did to them... but make it five times the pain... And, when I said to them, I meant ALL of them! Kick them out after if not, take off their heads, I don't mind."
I couldn't forget that day and those people's faces, how much despair they felt after losing their jobs with pain in their butt. After all, they had been in this family for like, ever since they were born.
And I couldn't forget how she made the mansion upside down for me... And how the people inside went half that made trouble for our master. Though my father fixed it and found new more people.
I was grateful and I have followed her everywhere ever since. Even when she found new friends and how much they sneer at me, I still follow her like a dog looking out for my master.
Even when she got tired of them for not giving them what they want especially politically, I was there beside her.
Even when those 'friends' of her took advantage of her weakness that blackmail her, I took care of them and she covers my tracks.
We were still kids but that doesn't mean my hands weren't dirty like the adults. And I was proud of it as she is to me.
I stayed by her side... even when she got poison...
It was my fault. I let my guard down and this happen. I was ready to accept my punishment and die but she made it like it was heritage. She made others, including herself to believe that it wasn't a poison.
Nevertheless, no matter what she says, I couldn't forget that it was poison and I felt guilty for it because I was the one who gave it to her without knowing what it was until she drinks it.
I couldn't forgive myself... And so our master, they couldn't forgive me too... But Dice warned them not to touch me...
I cried for the first time, I wanted her to hate me but she wouldn't. So I ran away. And tracked down where the poison came from. And I made them vanish one by one no matter what and who they are.
A week later, less than hundreds of heads I brought back to them. My master and mistress were happy about it but only she was worried about me. She opened her arms to received me and asked, "How was your journey? It must have been lonely."
I cried in her arms and couldn't utter a word. I cried like a baby and showed that weak side of mine. I missed her so badly and even if I killed all the clans that were responsible for poisoning her, without killing myself too, it wasn't enough to cover my guilt. But I couldn't kill myself if I knew she would be sad about my death. So, I waited.
Then, I volunteered to be her maid to take care of her. I wanted her to hate me so she can throw me out and I can kill myself. I played harmless pranks on her and said mean words, but it's like she didn't hear me and keep smiling at me!
So at night, I played a dangerous prank. When she's asleep, I sneak into her room and wake her up with my kisses, she did wake up but only to kiss me back.
I was stunned! My prank went wrong! I ran away from her room instantly and the next day, like nothing happened, everything is the same!
I frowned and tried it again. I couldn't accept this defeat, she must hate me! I should make her gross-out! I guess kisses aren't enough for it! So I went back again and... touch her...
But she pretended to sleep and didn't wake up! It was annoying until I went overboard! She woke up with a smirk and I was gonna ran away but she held me back.
I felt defeated and ashamed for touching my Miss!
I don't wanna do it again but my body said no! So every night I sleep with her, and I was even welcomed by her that I don't need to sneak in and just use the door. The servants were even expecting me every night.
I facepalm, my prank went wrong!
Then, months later I was called by the master. I was scared, did Dice told them? Well, I deserved to be punished anyway.
However, it wasn't a punishment but more paperwork. Dice was getting older and she was supposed to learn more about her family businesses but she couldn't do it anymore.
So I was tasked to do her job until we find an antidote for her. I didn't mind and did my best for it while being a personal maid of Dice.
But years passed and Dice was getting weaker to the point the medicines she was taking to lessen her pain, wasn't effective anymore. We felt hopeless. Her parents keep making new babies have a new heir but nothing was made. So they asked for a doctor's help leaving Dice alone with me.
Dice knew it and were supportive about it because she knew they needed an heir and as the only child, she failed her expectations. And it was my fault but no one was saying anything.
The couple had the success of having twins and I stayed beside Dice as she couldn't get up anymore. I nursed her while I do her paperwork job. I didn't leave her behind and stayed beside her even at work.
However, while I was checking documents beside her, I couldn't hear her breathing anymore. I checked her pulse and... she's gone.
I called all of the servants outside the room and our master and mistress were called too. Everyone didn't utter a word. Our Miss stayed in her bed for a week and I took care of her with other servants while we were preparing for a funeral.
Before they put her in the coffin, I begged my master to give me the tasks I was preparing for. I finished the tasks he was given to me as fast as I could as I knew I don't have time.
He gave me his permission. I said goodbyes to everyone, especially my family. They knew what I was planning and they hugged me tightly before I go.
"We will wait for you before we start the funeral." The master told me before leaving. I nodded, "Please, add one more." He nodded and I thanked him for his understanding.
I left and finish the mission. To steal and burn the evidence of my master's doing these past years. It was in the place where it's easy to come in but there's no coming back, the government's most secured place. It is a suicide task that I asked. The last task I want to do.
I burned all the evidence and even put viruses that erases everything. It was successful, and now for the escape... I don't have that plan.
Though I still tried with high tech weapons, I knew I was a goner. I was shot by a lot of times and even bomb out, not just once but more than twice, my body... perished. And only my hair and the ponytail she gave me was left.
Dice told me before, "Suicide is the greatest sin people can do and it's an instant hell for them. But I still want to see you even in the underworld. So please, don't kill yourself." And I didn't. They killed me like I wanted to and those documents are bonuses.
I saw my dust got the vacuum out, hearing the people screaming at my dust, and a man took my hair and ponytail. The people are trying to put my dust out and scattered and that man took it saying he'll do it.
I didn't believe spirits exist but becoming one after, well, I have no choice but to believe. I followed that man. I was planning on going back to the mansion but I have this feeling, that I must follow that man and my dust.
