One Month later:
"Gosh!!! I'm exhausted!" I exclaimed.
"What's wrong, my dear?" Mother asked.
"Mommy? When did you arrive?" I was shocked since I didn't notice her.
Yeah, I finally accepted everything. The pretty couple as my parents, myself as a 7 year-old girl, this name and this stupid world. Now I address myself as Sabrina as well I don't know when it started but I subconsciously started calling myself Sabrina, I guess nobody calls me Felicia anymore, maybe that's why? But now that I'm Sabrina and Felicia is dead, so I wanted to get used to it and now I am!
And there was one strange thing that happened to me. I saw the original Sabrina in my dream two weeks ago, in which she asked me to live on happily and don't repeat the mistakes once made.
She was aware of her future so she wanted me to change it? Does she want me to live her life like my own? It was really strange. I really couldn't see why people called her evil, she was like a flower who was just scared to be plucked, so it withered away before someone else could do any harm.
After that dream it felt a little strange but I didn't feel guilty anymore that I took over her body and that's how I accepted everything.
"I arrived a couple of minutes ago, Fannie told me that you have been stressed recently. So I came to check up on you and you also didn't come to meet me and your Daddy yesterday, he was very sad..." she said.
"Oh yeah...actually I was tired yesterday and slept early which is why I didn't visit and I'm not stressed. I'm just tired, you know that I lost my memory so I'm just trying to adjust here and all, nothing specific. As for Fannie she just worries a lot, haha, Oh and tell Daddy that I'll visit today okay?" I said which made her happy.
"No worries, my baby. I'll tell him and you just rest, no need to stress, okay? We love you no matter what!" she said and kissed my cheek.
"Okay!" I said in my cute accent making her melt on the spot. After a few more kisses she left.
The Duchess is really pretty, no doubt that Sabrina is one in a million beauty including Anne. Both of them were extraordinary, Anne for her rare golden eyes and Sabrina for her unique hair and eye colour.
Both were famous as the "Pearl duo" because of their beauty and uniqueness. As for why am I tired lately? it's because I've been ignoring those two siblings for a month now, which is no less than an Olympic, I should really get a gold medal for that. Whenever I would see them I would either hide or run far away from them.
One time they came unusually early while me on the other side was trying to find a better hiding place and as soon as I spotted them I hid in the nearest bush but later got very bad rash because I was allergic to that plant which I didn't know and it took a while for me to explain how I ended up there and soon after all the bushes in our garden vanished which made it more difficult to hide.
I hoped that they would stop coming after getting ignored so many times but that didn't affect them. They still came, the only thing that changed was that they gave one day gap after every visit which I thought was a good progress. They didn't come yesterday which means they will be here today so... Let's go find a place to hide!!!!
And as I turned to go outside to hide, I got startled by Fannie.
"Gahhh!! Fannie?!! When did you enter?" I asked, trying to control my heartbeat which was racing due to the sudden appearance.
"I entered when you were smiling mischievously" she said with an expressionless face.
"Yeah right....Haha" I laughed awkwardly.
"So you are going to avoid the Romet siblings again today, Miss?" she asked, tilting her head.
"Of cour-" I was saying but got cut off by a voice.
"What?"
I turned my head and saw Anne with a shocked expression.
'Oh, shit' I cursed.
"You ignored us inten...sonally?" she asked, messing up her words as her eyes got teary.
'Cute!! No! This is not the right time! first let's try to handle her...'
"No I-I..." I was trying to say but the words didn't come out of my mouth.
'Come on Sabrina she is a six-year-old kid and you're mentally eighteen! It's not that hard,' I scolded myself.
"Then I'll leave you two alone. Have fun" Fannie bowed, passed a smile and left.
Fun? I even forgot how to speak, I can't even move right now because my brain has stopped functioning and you are telling me to have fun?!!!....CURSE YOU FANNIEEE!!!
"Anne...come here and sit" I said while I sat on the bed and gestured to her to do the same and she did obediently.
"Look An-" I was saying but got cut off by her.
WHY DOES NOBODY LET ME SPEAK!!!!!!!
"Do you hate us?" she asked as her tears threatened to fall and this scene in front of my eyes instantly melted my heart.
"No...I don't" I replied in a low voice feeling guilty.
"Then why do you keep hiding from us?" she asked innocently.
'Wait? How did she know I was hiding from them?' I got confused because Fannie didn't mention hiding or something like that.
"I didn't...hide from you-" I said nervously.
"Liar! You did! I saw you...I saw you running away from us and hiding from us. I told you that I can sense you...oh right, you lost your memory," She confronted but then looked down.
Oh yeah, how can I forget that she is a Saint with extraordinary vision and sense, she can sense me easily. Dammit!!
"B-by the way, are you alone today?" I tried to change the topic because I don't know how to answer her.
"Brother had training today which is why he didn't come and you didn't answer my question" she said in a low voice.
'She's not gonna let this slide this easily. What should I do? I don't have an answer to that question? Of Course, I don't hate them but I do hate the novel's plot but I can't say this to her. Ahh I'm so confused' I started fidgeting with my hands and bit my lower lip as I didn't know what to say.
"Anne...I never hated you nor Knox it's just..." I answered but stopped because I still didn't think of an excuse.
'What should I say? what should I say?' my inner thoughts were going crazy.
"Just what? You find us boring? *sniff* or....DID YOU FIND NEW FRIENDS!!?" she said looking at me while her tears started to flow.
"No! No! I didn't find any new friends, it's just that...I'm not a good person. I'm selfish...and I didn't want you or Knox to get influenced by me and become like me, that's it, nothing else" I got flustered and this was the only reasonable excuse that came to my mind so I blurted it out.
"What? really?" she asked innocently.
"Yeah really" I replied, getting relieved that she believed me.
"No, you are not bad! You are very nice. You play with us, make us laugh and after your memory loss you are even more nice, Sabi. Don't say you are bad, you are like a rabbit who is very cute and active who hops around making everyone happy and..." She was talking but I got lost in her cuteness and the way she was trying to comfort me so I didn't hear much of what she was saying but I had one question...
'Where the heck does she get those examples from? Who in the world taught her those?'
"...kind and if you think you are bad which you are not but you think you are so you can change it...Can't you?" she said innocently looking at me.
'...That makes sense! Why did I never think of that? Instead of avoiding my destiny, Why don't I just change it to the way that I want! Woah, a six year old gave me such great advice...I feel dumb.'
"You're right. I should change it, not avoid it! Thank you Ann, you really eased my problem" I said, smiling at her and suddenly she started crying.
"W-wait, w-what's wrong? Why are you crying so suddenly? I-I promise I won't avoid you from now on! Please stop crying" I panicked. I didn't know how to calm her down.
"No *sniff* that's not it *sniff*" she said after she calmed down a little.
"Then what's the issue?" I asked.
"You called me Ann after so much time *sniff* I'm just happy" she said and smiled widely.
'Ah...How will I survive this much cuteness?'
"Don't worry, I will call you Ann from now on and I will not ignore you or run away from you okay?" I said, smiling at her.
"Pwomise? *sniff*" she said and showed her pinky.
"Yes I promise, my cute Anne. Happy?" I said, intertwining my pinky with hers.
"Yes! very happy" she said while smiling like an angel.
From now on, I will continue my friendship with Knox and Ann. I will write my own destiny and choose my own path. And most importantly, I will protect my sweet lovely Anne from all the monkeys out there and 'Save the Female lead' from distress...!
