Nina went to the room that has two beds and brought one of the beds inside her space. She thought that because the time in the space is longer, she would sleep there for the meantime.
She has pillows, beddings, and blankets in her space that she bought online together with the mobile house so everything is set.
When she's inside the space, she puts the bed inside her storage house because she thought that if she put anything in the storage house the storage house will make it obey her.
She tried to bring out the bed and send it to the room inside her house using her mind then the bed floated and moved the way she wanted too! She was so excited that she didn't bother to look at her crops.
Nina washed her body and changed her clothes before arranging her bed. She'll just think again after she woke up.
'Nina, remember that boy should be your husband. If you will be able to marry him you can give us a nice good life when we are old'
'That's right, you see, papa can merge his company to their company, if that happens it would be great'
'Why can't you make a man like you? You are already married! We've already helped you but you still can't do anything right!'
'Look! Your husband found another woman! That should be your place! That woman even wants to get your son! Are you still going to stay hidden here?! Go get your family back! They say you are a genius but you are so idiot! You can't even keep your family!'
' I never loved you, I just tolerated you because of my son. When you let your parents steal from my company, it was all over! '
' No, you are not my mommy, bring me back to her! Please, please, bring me back. '
' Nina, don't do this. Don't be the monster your parents made you to be. You can still be his mom, you can still watch him grow. '
' Nina stop!!! '
Nina woke up in cold sweat after her nightmare. Why does she need to remember those painful memories? She's no longer living in their world. She's in a different dimension now. Somewhere far away from them. But why can't she forget them? She already promised herself to forget and be happy but why can't she fool herself to just forget everything and move on?
She doesn't want to admit that she is still wounded after her last life's tragic ending. She just tries to pretend that her previous life was just a plain nightmare and this life is her reality but the wound she tried so hard to forget creeps out from her mind and is slowly eating her being again.
How? How can she stop herself from hurting? She thought that everything would be okay if she started a new life, then why? Why was the pain still suffocating?
She just wants to live free, but the ghost from her past still followed her. Why didn't her ancestor just erase her memories from her last life?
Nina went out of her space. She checked the time on her phone. It's already 1 am. She went into her space at around 10 pm. It means that she was already asleep for almost half a day.
Nina can't sleep anymore so she put on her warm coat to go outside. She's hoping to see the stars and the moon, maybe it can calm her frustrated emotions right now.
She then walked out of her house. She's just planning to walk around her yard but before she could step on the ground she felt another person at her back
"You promised you will not run away, then where do you plan to go at this hour?"
"Why are you still here?!" Nina was so startled. Why is this guy still here? He is still wearing the clothes he has when he left her house, so does it mean this guy never left?
"If I didn't stay here would I know that you left me again? I already lost you twice. I'm afraid that you would run away again for the third time"
"You didn't leave?" Nina was really shocked with his confirmation.
Hades didn't answer her question and just looked at what she's wearing. It is still cold but his woman is just wearing a coat and the dress under was not enough to cover her thin legs!
"It's cold outside, get in first. You just had a fever, it might come back again" Hades firmly said. He can adjust to any of Nina' s whims but if it would endanger her health, he needs to be firm. Nina's health and safety is his bottom line.
"You know it is cold outside but you stayed out of my house for more than three hours?" Nina snorted when Hades held her to walk inside her house.
"Are you worried about me?"
"No" Nina denied "Why would I be worried?"
"Then I am worried about you" Hades said cupping her palm sized face "just this afternoon, I saw how weak you were because of fever. Although I like the feelings that you are relying on me for strength it doesn't mean I wanted you to be like that. I saw how uncomfortable you were, I also felt powerless that I can't take all the pain you were suffering, so don't be stubborn. I can spoil you to heavens but if your health will be at stake, I will never compromise. You are my most important person, I will always take care of you but you also need to take care of yourself when I am not around, okay? "
Nina was deeply moved with what Hades said. In her two lives, nobody told her that she was important. She only becomes important because they needed something from her but this man has the world on his hand. He can just leave and forget about her but still he looked after her and humbly asked for her forgiveness. Now he is saying she is important, that he will take care of her.
Somewhere in Nina's heart some cracks seem to be building themselves again.
She wants to gamble, she wants to gamble the broken pieces of her heart but she's afraid.
She just knew this man for less than a day. She only knew him through the description of the book and the book's description was unreliable.
The man in front of her didn't make her feel cold but warm. He was not a wooden block and he can make her soft. He was not terrifying because he always made her feel safe and secure.
The book didn't give justice to this man's character.
"Don't do this" Nina said hoarsely, she fears that she can no longer hold herself back
"do what?"
"make me feel important"
"but you are really important. You are my most important treasure" Hades didn't stop himself anymore and hugged her "you were asking me what are the rules. Nina you are the rule, my rule. I can do anything except leave you. So please, let me stay by your side. I will not ask for anything. I will wait until you give me your answer but please, just let me stay with you"
Nina listened to Hades' words at the same time to his quickening heartbeat. Nina didn't know what kind of hypnotism Hades gave her that made her nod her head.
"Good" Hades said happily "Then I will stay here from now on"
Nina was startled, what just happened? She tried to move away from Hades' body but he stopped her.
"What? You can't backout now Nina, You already agreed. You nodded four times"
"But I never thought that you wanted to stay here in my house"
"how can I take care of you if I live somewhere far from you?" Hades asked innocently
"But-" if Nina allows him to stay here, won't he find out about her space? If he finds out about her space, will she need to tell him about her previous life? Will he still accept her? Or will he treat her as a monster?
"Nina, I will never do anything that you don't want me to do. If you wanted to keep something I will never ask, I just wanted to be with you" Hades saw her hesitation. The first time Hades saw her he knew that she was not an ordinary girl. This is also one of the reasons why he was so afraid that she would run away. He has this scary feeling that if he lets her leave, he may not be able to see her again.
"There are two small bedrooms here, I haven't bought pillows there yet so you can't sleep here now"
Hades' face became bright "No, I can sleep here, I have pillows, blankets, even beddings"
Nina became dumbfounded when she heard this. Was he this sure that she would let him stay here?
Hades made Jerry prepare this. He asked Ares how many bedrooms Nina had so Hades had an idea that Nina would let him use one of these rooms. Ares also reminded him that Nina hasn't bought most of the bedrooms and kitchen stuff yet so Hades told Jerry to buy him pillows, blankets, and beddings for himself first. He will bring Nina to buy the rest when she is fully rested.
"Fine! Get your things and go to bed!" Nina just helplessly said, she totally forgot the reason why she went out first.
Hades didn't go out, he was afraid that Nina would change her mind. He just called Jerry who was sleeping in the car to bring the things he bought.
Jerry was surprised. His young master was able to stay inside the future young madam's house? He thought that with his young master's personality, it would take forever but in less than a day his young master was able to coax the girl? Good face really has a great advantage. Even if his young master has a terrible aura, he can still make any woman like him.
Jerry sent the things to his young master but he was more than surprised by what he saw. His young master is sweeping the floor! His young master who never touches the cold water is sweeping the floor!
"Nina, next time wait for me to open the door, okay"
Then Jerry noticed his goddess-like future young madam standing in front of him. He was so engrossed with his young master that he wasn't able to salute the future young madam!
"but you are busy"
"Just wait next time, what if it's a bad person?" Hades said when he reached Nina's side then put her at his back
Jerry became more shocked! Is this really his young master? He was with them this afternoon but he hadn't heard them speak to each other aside from asking where to go, they were basically silent. But now he can hear the gentle tone of the young master which made Jerry's hair stand up. What happened when he was asleep?
"Young master this-" before Jerry can talk more Hades snatched the things he is holding
Hades then felt a light tug at his back
"That's mean" Nina said, her doe eyes seem to be condemning him
Hades gave back the stuff to Jerry and told him to give it to him again. Jerry was trained to follow instructions without questions
"Young master, this are the things you asked me to get" Jerry said politely
"uhm" Hades said then he felt another tug "thank you"
Jerry was so afraid after hearing his master say thank you
"Sorry I can't offer you tea because I haven't bought things for my kitchen yet, next time I will invite you" Nina sweetly said while peeking from Hades' back which made Jerry a little calm but when he saw his young master, he really wanted to run! Young madam, please don't let me get killed early! Young master is a big vinegar jar like his dad! He doesn't like to experience the same tragic life of his dad when he became the object of master's vinegar!
"It's late already, and he doesn't drink tea"
"Oh, yeah, then bye mister. Good night"
Jerry bowed to the two then he walked really fast. He can still feel a pair of eyes wanting to make a hole on his head!
"I'm pissed"
"Huh?"
"I said I'm pissed"
"why?"
"When I left this evening, you didn't tell me that you wanted to invite me for tea but asked Jerry and you even said goodnight!"
"But I didn't allowed him to hug me and didn't even let him stay in one of my house's room"
Hades felt a little better when he heard that.
"And I told him that because I knew you disturbed his sleep, what if he thinks you are bad?" Nina wants to change the impression of other people about Hades, he's not bad, not the terrifying being stated in the book. He is gentle and kind.
Hades' subordinates:...
Hades became more gentle after hearing that, so it was for him why she said that. He knows that he is slowly entering Nina's life.
Hades will work hard until Nina can also no longer live without him.
