Cecilia was still wondering to herself. Why did Cecilia care so much about who Arkan really was?
Is it important?
Cecilia should still act the same as when she first met Arkan. It didn't matter who Arkan was, what was clear was Cecilia wanted to be her best friend.
And will continue to think of Arkan as her best friend. The best friend she has ever had.
"We've arrived," said Arkan suddenly, and after a few seconds, the train stopped.
Cecilia looked at Arkan who was now also looking at her. No smile. Judging from the look on his face now, he didn't seem like the Arkan Cecilia knew. Very weird.
Is Arkan really serious about asking Cecilia to stay at his house?
Cecilia didn't know why Arkan was like this.
Cecilia was scared, Arkan changed his mind. And Cecilia should have refused Arkan's invitation to her firmly.
Along the way, Cecilia was also confused about the area leading to Arkan's house.
Cecilia rarely visited this place. It might even be said never. But Cecilia knew this area.
Agricultural area. But the road to get here is quite good and very beautiful.
What kind of aristocrat was the Arkan family?
Cecilia guessed that Arkan was born of nobles in the farming circles. Local village ruler.
And that's enough to make the oddities that exist a little get enlightened.
Because that meant showing Arkan's position that Cecilia was hard to figure out would not be strange.
Because, the nobles she knew were almost entirely from the downtown area and the rest were from outside the city, even outside the kingdom.
"Master Arkan, we have arrived," said the coachman, who was no longer in his seat.
He stood in front of the carriage door, bowing politely after the carriage door was opened by him.
"Come on!" take Arkan to Cecilia.
Cecilia still put a lot of confusion into it.
And when Cecilia got out of the carriage, she had just set foot on the ground.
Cecilia has been presented with the local natural beauty that feels so cool.
Cecilia could breathe a different kind of fresh air. And this is enough to reassure hers.
And it surprised her even more when Cecilia saw the house in front of her now. All Cecilia could guess was the house belonging to the Arkan family.
Cecilia was getting more and more confused.
The house in front of her looked ordinary. Doesn't show any luxury at all.
The house is similar to the houses of ordinary citizens. Very different from Cecilia's house before.
Cecilia became doubtful if she had thought that Arkan was a noble family.
Arkan opened the fence of his house. Staring at Cecilia, signaling that Cecilia should also follow him.
Cecilia walked a step behind Arkan.
At first Cecilia had also intended to take all her belongings with her. Afraid of forgetting, being left on the train.
But Arkan forbade Cecilia not to bother bringing her things into Arkan's house because the coachman would bring it for Cecilia.
Coupled with a man who grew short who just came from behind the house.
He has a darker skin tone than tan. Not because of race. However, it seems that it is too often in direct sun. Cecilia didn't know for sure.
But he could be said to be a friendly person. He greeted Cecilia with a big smile, Cecilia also didn't forget to smile back.
Although it might look insincere because Cecilia was confused about what kind of smile to respond to.
He then brought Cecilia's belongings, helped the coachman.
Meanwhile Cecilia and Arkan continued to walk into the red brick house belonging to the Arkan family.
Seen from the architectural form, this house seems to be quite old. But it sturdiness made it look less old than Cecilia thought.
After entering Arkan's house, Cecilia couldn't help but be tempted to take a look.
The whole house is so neat and very pleasing to the eye.
Instantly, it made Cecilia's soul feel at ease here.
"Sit down! You must be tired. I'll prepare a drink for you first," said Arkan and went to one of the rooms.
Cecilia thought maybe it was the kitchen. And because of Arkan's fast steps, Cecilia didn't even have time to say a word.
Therefore, Cecilia sat down on the sofa. Be as polite as she can.
Until the man who grew short, and having a slightly black skin color, he went in to bring Cecilia's belongings with the coachman earlier.
"You can keep it in the back room over here, let me show you the way," said the man growing short and slightly black in color.
He also took the time to look at Cecilia who was still sitting on the sofa in the living room. He looks clumsy.
Yes, Cecilia is actually much more clumsy too. Cecilia was a stranger here.
The coachman who had a flat expression immediately obeyed, following the man who led the way.
Cecilia wanted to ask, but the two of them had already left.
Cecilia thought, she would ask later after the two returned.
"Arkan why is it taking so long?" Cecilia muttered to herself as she glanced towards the kitchen.
And what made Cecilia even more confused was, she didn't get a welcome from the people of the house.
There is no sign of any other family members in this house apart from Arkan himself. Was it just a coincidence that they were outside?
Cecilia herself didn't know how many people there were in this house.
Before long, the coachman and the short man with slightly black skin came. The coachman seemed to be listening carefully to the words of the short man with slightly black skin, nodding and keeping his expression flat.
A flat expression that looks so firm.
Cecilia noticed the coachman's strange movements in her eyes.
But Cecilia had no idea what they were talking about. And now, the two of them were seen whispering.
'He doesn't look like a charioteer, but rather like a royal guard. But maybe it's just me. Everyone has a different character, right?' Cecilia muttered to herself.
And after Cecilia said that, the coachman looked at Cecilia. So sharp
Cecilia was surprised, scared by it. And she didn't want to ask questions.
At first Cecilia wanted to ask why Cecilia's belongings were immediately transferred to the back room there? In fact, Cecilia thought they could put her in the living room first before Arkan decided where Cecilia would sleep later.
