Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

I stare at this woman closely when something breaks my thought about this woman directly. I hear someone knocking at my door and calling my name. It's Mrs. Buckley's voice. Directly I check it from my window and see that Mrs. Buckely and Valeria are there to deliver some foods for breakfast. Geez, I get unlucky situation this right now when I see my messed up room with blood splattered on my floor. And the important thing is an odd and beautiful woman with many wounds is on my bed. It's totally crazy. They may not know about it.

"Damn," I cursed myself.

"what happen?" she asked.

"shut up!!! Listen to me, my neighbors are coming here and deliver some foods. I know you're hungry so you have to help me. Don't make any sound and go anywhere. Stay here and I will return directly, you got it?"

"yes"

"okay thank you, I will return directly"

So I leave Lily alone in my room and rush to meet Mrs. Buckley and Valeria. I open this door and see them obviously.

"morning dear," Mrs. Buckley greeted.

"morning"

"hey, you got so messed up condition, did you stay up late?" Mrs. Buckley asked.

"ehm..... yes, I had to look for a job and thought about it"

"geez, you didn't need to push yourself hardly"

"yes I know, but I had to"

"you got a job?" Valeria replied.

"no..... yes, I mean yes, absolutely I got it," I answered.

"really? I'm glad for you, so what is it?" Mrs. Buckley said happily.

"what?" I made sure about it.

"your job dude," Valeria added.

"owh of course, it's........ an employee at the dairy factory"

"what? Are you sure about it? I mean you studied about business and you work at thar place?" asked Mrs. Buckley making sure.

"no.... I work as a manager in the office, in trade and export department," I explained.

"alraight, not bad. You can start anything from a little thing, right?"

"yes, but I have a planning. Maybe I have to return to the city a few days later"

"owh I see, you got hard life living here"

"no, not at all, it's fun. But it's not my zone"

"I got it, it's okay. But you have to visit us someday"

"I'll always visit you"

"hey, don't you please us to enter?" Valeria said directly.

"oh yes, I mean sorry, my house is so dirty and I have to clean it"

"really? What a mess, we'll help you," said Mrs. Buckley.

"no, you don't need to," I prevented. "you must have another business, right? And I thank for your kindness for delivering me some foods to my breakfast, but you have to go"

"you hide something from us?" Valeria asked coldly.

"NO, what are you talking about, I just..... have to clean my house"

"alright, I understand it, we gotta go Valeria and keep his privasy," said Mrs. Buckley.

"what? I, I don't have any privasy"

"owh yes dear, we know it. we have to go," Mrs. Buckley said goodbye.

"but keep her well, she's so beautiful," she added wishpering.

"what do you mean Mrs. Buckley?" I shouted.

Mrs. Buckley doesn't replied my question and returns to her house, but I cen feel her smile when she looks at my room's window before entering her room. Wait! My room's window? Is it? Damn, I'm so shocked when I see Lily looks at me and smiles from my room's window, and Mrs. Buckley realized it? Geez, it drives me crazy.

I go to my room directly and see that Lily is still there, in front of my window and see anything's happening outside there.

"what are you doing?" I asked rudely.

"just enjoying the view," she replied softly.

"I said to you don't go anywhere"

"I went no where, I just enjoy the view, is that wrong?"

"it's extremely wrong, you made my neighbou knew about you"

"I'm sorry"

I let out a soft sigh as I watched hir struggle to limp towards my bed. Her gaze was still dissolved in deep sorrow, and the expression on her face was as if she was enduring the pain she was in.

"you're hungry, arent't you?" I asked softly.

"yes"

"let's eat together," I invote her.

"thank you"

I give her a sendwich and we eat together here.

"anyway, you said that Xavier has an old manuscript in his drawer, is it a locked drawer in my attic?" I asked her.

"I don't know where the exactly of that drawer is, but Xavier gave the key to his student, Princess Gracemoon Isadora Xerxes, to keep it and give it to you someday," she explained.

"Princess Gracemoon?"

"the daughter of Crown Prince William Isadora Xerxes of Sebasta, a country in the northeastern part of Ignatius, I think you have just met her"

"met her?"

"yes, a bautiful women who knocked your door"

"Mrs. Buckley?"

"no, the younger one"

"Valeria?"

"I don't know what her name is, but she is"

"what? Wait a sec, the key given by Valeria yesterday is the key of Xavier's drawer?"

"exactly"

"but Valeria got it from my grandfather, Noah Adelard"

"Nolan, our grandfather is Xavier Rhodes, the greatest wizard in this world"

I am really socked about anything she said.

"you have to check his drawer to make you sure about these all," she added.

"I have to"
