Chapter 4 - JUST FOR YOU (1)

"Of course in my shop the princess sleeps." replied Edward, who was a little annoyed that Carolline had forgotten her job instead of sleeping on the chair in front of the oven.

While wiping her eyes, Carolline looked at the room around her, and it was true that she was in the kitchen room baking cookies.

"Edward, can you please give me a drink? Oh yes Edward, Look at my neck there are no signs of red?" asked Carolline to confirm what was going on.

"Hem, do you want to show that you already have a boyfriend and last night your boyfriend kissed you like that!! Quickly cover it with your scarf, lots of red marks on your neck Caroll." said Edward as he went to get some drinking water.

"God, it turned out to be true with what I thought, how can I dream but like real." said Carolline questioningly.

"Don't remember that your lover is back home, he's been waiting for you from the morning outside since you came." said Edward, giving a glass of water.

"My lover?? who is it?" asked Carolline, who felt dhe didn't have a lover.

"And what did you say Edward? he is waiting for me outside? who?" asked Carolline, even more curious.

"I thought your lover was a weirdo, in times like this he still wears royal clothes like that! Is your lover a theater person?" asked Edward seriously.

"I don't understand what are you talking about? lover who? did he talk to you?" asked Carolline, her face starting to turn pale.

"Yes a little, he wanted to meet you, and I said you're still busy, and he's been waiting for you quite a while." Edward replied without the slightest suspicion.

"Did you ask his name?" Carolline asked nervously with the cold sweat that had already come out of her forehead.

"Yes of course, I asked his name and he answered,..Um..who is it? ... Alex ... Alexander, that's his name." Edward replied staring at Carolline's pale face.

"Alexander? are you sure his name is Alexander?" asked Carolline, her body starting to tremble.

"If Edward can see it, then Alexander is real? but why am i like dreaming?" muttered Carolline to herself.

"Why are you daydreaming? I really believe his name is Alexander I'm still not senile Miss! let's work again, for your punishment, you have to overtime until the night." said Edward fondly.

Carolline's only friend and person whom he trusted deeply, because Carolline was the only one he had during the time he moved in the city of Lund.

"Edward, can I ask you a favor?" asked Carolline after a few seconds of thought.

"What? just say no need to hesitate and don't have anything you hide from me." said Edward staring deeply at Carolline's face.

"If he comes looking for me again, call me as soon as possible I want to see it with you beside me." said Carolline, wanting to make sure that Alexander wasn't just a hallucination.

"What's up Caroll?" asked Edward curiously.

"I want to tell but I'm still confused with myself, I will confirm in advance, and I asked you a favor just now, call me when he comes looking for me." said Carolline, patting Edward's shoulder then returning to work serving some of the customers who came.

"How about Edward, my sentence is finished right?" asked Carolline, sitting in the cashier's chair after clearing all the dirty tables until they were clean again.

"Hem, I'll take you home, okay? it is late." said Edward, closing the cash register drawer and pocketing it.

"No need Ed, I want to buy fried rice first for Rachel's lips, counting yesterday's payday I haven't bought anything." said Carolline, intending to stop by Rachel's house.

"Well, go home early it's late, be careful on the road later." said Edward who still had to close the shop.

"Okay, I'll go home first." said Carolline, straightening her hair and then exiting Edward's bakery and taking her bicycle.

Indeed, Edward's bakery is not too far from the rented house.

Pedaling Carolline looks for a detour to buy her aunt Rachel's favorite fried rice.

Before arriving at the place where the fried rice was sold, Carolline felt the weight of pedaling her bicycle. It turned out that his bicycle tire was flat.

Carolline was forced to get off her bicycle and lead her to the seller of fried rice.

At the junction of the deserted road, three young men who looked unkind were looking at Carolline with a passionate gaze.

"Hi beautiful, where are you going?" asked one of them who was well-built and tall.

Carolline stopped her steps, took a few steps back slightly as the three young men approached her.

"Who are you? don't come near, or I'll scream." said Carolline loudly as she turned her gaze around the street which did seem deserted.

The three youths laughed at the same time as if they were belittling the humble-looking Carolline.

Terrified, Carolline moved backwards as the three young men drew closer and tried to touch her.

Carolline closed her eyes and shouted loudly as one of the youths reached her hand over her face.

"Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh."

Suddenly Carolline felt a strong wind and heard the sound of a heavy object falling three times along with a scream of pain.

"BUGG"

"BUGG"

"BUGG"

Carolline opened her eyes slowly, she saw that the three young men were lying on the ground, holding his stomach and his head.

"Please ... please ..., my goodness!!" the three young men groaned in pain.

Carolline turned her eyes to the left and right of the deserted road, no one was there.

Without looking back, Carolline sprinted away from her bicycle and stopped when she saw someone she had known the last few days.

"ALEXANDER"

Standing straight in front of him with an unchanging appearance, a handsome and cold face with long hair, complete with his royal attire.

Carolline stood with her legs trembling slightly as Alexander approached her and drew closer to her.

Alexander's gaze was so bright blue in the moonlight that appeared in the sky.

Carolline's eyes immediately closed when Alexander was right in front of her.

Carolline's heart suddenly stopped when he felt Alexander's two hands lift her body and take her flying hovering somewhere.

Slowly Carolline opened her eyes, and saw Alexander's handsome and cold face that took her flying.

Fearful of falling, Carolline reflexively hugged Alexander's neck very tightly.

Alexander's heavy breath was felt to enter into her breathing cavity which made her body tremble.

Carolline closed her eyes again as if feeling and enjoying the warmth of Alexander's embrace.

"Open your eyes Carolline, we're in your room, honey." whispered Alexander in his deep voice.

Slowly Carolline opened her eyes to see Alexander's eyes dimmed again.

"Don't be afraid of me, I will look after and protect you, nothing will happen to you as long as I am in this world." Said Alexander looked gently at Carolline's face and lowered her slowly.

"I..I don't believe you, I don't know if you are human or an artificial being." said Carolline, taking a few steps back.

"Now go away, and never come back again." said Carolline as she recited the prayer Rachel taught as she brought her ring close to Alexander's face.

Alexander screamed in pain while closing his eyes, suddenly Alexander's body collapsed and flopped on the floor.
