"Kairan: Surviving in the Modern World" CHAPTER 5
So here I am lying down on my bed at noon, and this is too boring! On my previous world there is not a lot of things to be done but at least we can go to capital city and spend money on unnecessary things like new dress, sparkling jewelry, shoes that has gems on it or you can also set an tea party with your noble or aristocratic friends—well none of that I've done since my budget as a princess is same as commoners monthly salary which I used to give to Sophie and Sarah for being my maid and also being be friend with a bastard princess like me but in this world?! I don't have anyone to talk to or even a single book to read. I can't even go for a walk.
I look at the window in my room and stare at those things and to the colorful lights outside I really want to see that up close! I am busy imagining and thinking what I must do to see it when I suddenly feel sleepy and eventually fall asleep.
--------
It's been two days! And I'm having a super duper ultra dull and boring day, I was able to talk a bit with Iris {the nurse who scolded me} but because she has her job that needs to be done she cannot stay longer. I just woke up and it's already 8 am. First I go to the bathroom and brush my teeth. After that I wash my face and tie my hair in a ponytail and leave 'breakfast time!' I was thinking happily when someone entered my room.
"Tsk! Why do I have to take care of that woman?"
Unfamiliar voice from an unfamiliar face, I've never seen him before.
"Did you not know how to knock?"
I asked when our eyes met, he looked surprised and shocked.
"And when did you have the guts to speak like that to me?"
He's voice is much louder than before, like he was threatening me at some point.
"What are you? Someone who's higher than the king?"
I said while slowly walking towards my bed.
"No? But I am someone who's higher that you"
He said and sat down on the couch.
"Why don't you identify yourself first?"
I said to him and stared into his eyes.
"So it is true that you lost your memory? How sad of that"
I can sense the sarcasm in his voice.
"Miss? Your breakfast is here!"
A joyful voice of Iris behind the door. She entered the room with a tray of food in her hands, she looked at the guy I am talking to and suddenly her eyes started to shine. What the fvck?!
"Sorry miss I don't know you have a visitor"
She said with a weird smile and teasing eyes to me.
"Yeah I didn't expect too"
She placed my food on the table that made for bed.
"Then I'll go first"
She said and immediately walked away from me.
"But we haven't talked yet!"
When she reached the door she looked at me and gave me an 'okay' sign and looked again to the guy sitting on the couch. What? She really left like that?!
I have no choice so I just eat. While eating, I secretly looked at the guy sitting like a boss inside of my room holding a rectangular thing in one of his hands. Ohh- I have the same thing, that rectangular thing on the top of table alongside of my bed, it seems like he was touching it with his hand more specifically by his fingers. [cellphone]
I was busy staring at him while eating rice and chicken when he suddenly looked at me with a smirk on his face.
"I know I am handsome but please don't stare at me like that"
He said then brushed his hair backwards.
"You? Handsome?"
I said with a hint of sarcasm on it and acted like I was thinking again.
"Indeed, you're handsome, a pale skin, golden hair, light purple eyes and tall—"
I paused to see his reaction and it didn't disappoint, he looked proud of himself like a dog that was waiting to be petted by his owner.
"I know—I am quiet handso—"
I cut him before he'd able to finish his sentence.
"But I know someone who is more handsome, gentleman and well manner that you"
Now I can see his displeased reaction towards my words.
"Huh?! Don't you know who I am?!"
He yells at me and walks near to me.
"Obviously no, I said Identify who you are didn't I"
I said while pointing my index finger at him.
"Well then, I am Ash Hale your so called fiancée, sorry for late introduction"
He said and walked closer to me.
"What? My fiancée?"
I didn't mean to yell at him, with matching big and shocked eyes and then looked at him from head to toe and stared at his face.
"I thought that my fiancée is a grumpy and pervert old man"
I said, still staring at him.
"A what? I'm only 25! This bitvh!"
He said but I wasn't able to hear what the last word was.
"If you're 25 years old then, what about me?"
I asked while pointing at myself.
"You? Did you really lose your memory?"
He said and stepped backwards with an indescribable face.
"Do I look like I'm joking? to you?"
"No—it's just, I thought you're only playing prank on me to get my attention"
He said and the disappointment written on his face while taking his walk towards the couch. He sits on it and crosses his legs.
"Well if that's the case, you're 21 years old"
Ash said and shrugs his shoulders like he doesn't care at all. To be honest from the moment our eyes meet I don't know why but I already feel irritated by his presence and the way he acts toward me. I can say that he doesn't like me either.
"And what do you mean by getting your attention?"
I asked again, and now Ash holding that rectangular thing again[cellphone]
"I don't know, I just simple ignore you but you always did things just to get my attention and it really irritates me the most"
He said casually without any concern about my feelings, if his words hurt me or not.
"I don't mean to be rude but—you are not that handsome and lovable enough for me to beg for your attention thou"
I said that without any ill intention I just said what I wanted.
"What?!"
He yells at me and immediately runs to me and snatches my face tightly with one of his hands.
"You are the one who begged your father to engage me and pathetically want my attention and now you dare to say that kind of words to me?"
He said with fury on his face and voice and looked at me as if I were some disgusting creature in front of him, and what are the reasons for the real Kairen to beg to get engaged to this type of man that clearly doesn't care about her existence? And why did she want the attention of this crappy guy? If the real Kairen is in front of me I'm gonna say 'you have the worst taste in man' . I don't know a lot about men, marriage, and the love of being lovers but I am sure I read a lot of books that the genre is romance.
While thinking and imagining what things I want to say to the real Kairen, I didn't notice that I was frowning and had a dark expression that made Ash let go of my face and slap me.
"Your expression is so disgusting!"
The AuDacITy?! I looked at him, no to be exact. I glare at him and grab the collar of his clothes, how dare you to slap this body? I was deeply in debt to this body and he did slap it? He slapped me!
"If you don't like my expression, my face, then shut your eyes. No one asks you to look at me in the first place, if you get irritated with my voice why don't you cover your ears or don't talk to me? Don't blame me on the choices you've made on your own, live a life dude, perhaps you don't have balls don't you?"
After saying what feel he looked terrified as if he saw some kind of monster or ghost. After glaring at him for a few more seconds I let him go by throwing him away from me, he fell into the floor and stayed there and stared at me for a minute.
"Go out and don't come back, I don't need you in the first place"
I said while pointing at the door, he stood up quickly and hurriedly walked toward the door, but before he totally left the room he looked at me again and said.
"You'll gonna regret it"
And slams the door.
