Chapter 12 - Not That I'm Afraid of You

It seems that there is only one paper in it. I threw the letter in the drawer, I don't want to read it now. Senem took the letter back like Senem was very curious about the content of the letter. In that case, I just let Senem read it if he is good at reading.

"Why not read it right away? It could be that this letter is important," Senem said taking the letter and giving it to me to read.

"If you're curious, you're the only one who reads it. I'm not in the mood to read right now," I replied, looking up at the overly ancient ceiling of the room. I threw the letter back at Senem, and Senem put it back in the drawer. There is no name of the sender anyway, what I read it for without knowing who sent it.

There was no conversation for a few minutes. Senem was silent, did nothing, just sat looking out like he had something to think of. What did I do? I should have served my guest, not made him wait for me to speak first.

"Wait here, I'll bring some snacks," I said out of the room, down the stairs, and looked at the contents of the refrigerator. There are some snacks here, wafers, and orange juice.

When I returned to my room, Senem was no longer there. Well, I bored the guest, of course, he will go wherever he wants. A life that is free, but also bound. There were a lot of things I wanted to know about him and now the opportunity is gone. I don't know why, it feels like crying.

"Eir? What's the matter?" asked Senem appearing, which turned out to be Senem just looking around the room. Looking at the bookshelf that was behind the door.

"Snacks for you."

Senem's way of eating is the same as that of ordinary people, even his way of eating is dignified by not speaking. The way of eating is the same as the nobles in one of the paintings in this castle, looking elegant even though it looks like that.

"Why come here? Anything you want to say?" I asked me sitting watching this creature eat gracefully, charismatically even though Senem himself did not wear clothes. His stomach was plaid, making me hooked though for a moment.

"Nothing, just want to visit. Want to find a friend," he replied that he had finished eating and put down the plate and spoon after the rules of eating. I don't even like that eating rule.

I smiled at him. That's also my goal, making friends. I smiled endlessly, forgetting someone who was also looking for friends. I'm happy, but why is it only now? When my vacation is almost over?! Though I want to know a lot about Senem, a creature from folklore that turned out to be true.

"You're bored? Want to go for a walk?" asked Senem holding me and leading me to the balcony. I don't know why I had to go to the balcony when it could have been that the back door was open.

Senem directly carried me without warning and moved very quickly. I couldn't see where Senem was taking me, but I enjoyed the wind hitting my face even though my hair sometimes went into my mouth or eyes.

"Where are we going?" I shouted as I felt like my voice wouldn't be heard when I spoke in a regular tone. The wind made the sound shrink, in which case my voice sounded small even though I was screaming.

"To a good place," Senem replied.

I'm nauseous for a long time, I hope it's a quick journey. Senem stopped, and I was a little nauseous about the trip just now. This thing is magical, and I'm not used to such a speed. My stomach hurts, it feels like I want to vomit. Senem realized that I was motion sickness, and patted me on the shoulder, he said it was better not to be restrained. In the end, I vomited, Senem was not disgusted with me at all, even smiling like he was mocking me.

"Drink it," Senem said passing me water, out of nowhere he got it.

My legs felt weak, and I sat down instantly. My head was a little dizzy, and my stomach felt comfortable after vomiting. Senem just chuckled lightly, it's good to see me like this. I returned the laugh with a smile, indeed more comfortable after I took out my entrails.

"Where are we?" I asked feeling that if the grass here felt soft, I wanted to lie down. The night sky here is beautiful, full of stars without any light, there is only moonlight illuminating this night.

"Flo Forest," Senem replied which made me tremble suddenly.

Although I knew that it was Senem who killed the bad guys, still the experience was terrifying. I was also forbidden to enter the forest. I don't want to be here, even if the scene is as beautiful as this. My hands suddenly trembled, the incident had become a trauma in me, even though I knew Senem well, the memory would still be in my memory.

"Eir? Eiryana? What's the matter?" asked Senem seeing my hands shaking. Senem held my hand, giving warmth but that warmth couldn't stop the shaking in me.

In the end, my tears came down like drops of water. I cried, my fear exceeding what I had imagined. I held Senem's hand tightly, and Senem hugged me, giving me a hug I never imagined. I'm glad I was that Senem used to be a human being, just like me, just like most people.

"Take me away from here, I beg you! Take me away!" I shouted hysterically like someone who had lost his mind. Indeed now I am losing my mind, fear overwhelms me.

"Hey hey, calm down. Take a deep breath and exhale. What's the matter? What scares you like this?" asked Senem sounding worried about my suddenly becoming like this. I realized that this fear I could not control.

"Take me away! I beg you! Get out of here! Immediately! I couldn't be here longer!" I shouted many times repeating it to the point that my voice was hoarse on its own.

Senem carried me and led me out of the woods. My head was dizzier than before, everything looked like it was spinning. Senem put me down. I know this place, this is the back garden of grandpa's castle. I stood up, the fear slowly disappearing in place of a headache.

"You're afraid of me aren't you? Answer me Eiryana!" exclaimed Senem her voice changed, her tone of voice higher than usual.

"No, it's not like that," I replied as much as possible avoiding misunderstandings. I didn't know my body reacted to myself after hearing I was in that forest again.

"Then what is this?! You are just like the others. Think of me as a monster. I was wrong with you, I shouldn't have helped you back then, didn't see you now! Now that I know, you are just curious, after knowing everything about me, you will stay away from me and add different stories to people. Do you know what happened to such people? I killed him!" exclaimed Senem approaching me. His nails just suddenly lengthened, becoming extremely sharp. Approaching with his eyes that turned into a dark brown color.

Senem approached me, I slowly retreated and there was only a wall behind me, I couldn't retreat anymore. When Senem said about murder, my heart skipped a beat with fear. I misunderstood, being friends with Senem was my fault. However, Senem is something I shouldn't have approached.

"You regret not knowing about myself?! Answer!"

"I... I think of you as my friend."

Senem was enraged and clawed at me with his sharp nails on my neck. For a moment I couldn't breathe, blood came out of my neck. I tried to scream, but my voice couldn't get out. It hurts so much, I feel that this is the end of my life.

"Eiryana! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you like this! Eiryana! Stay on the light!"

I'm trying to breathe, I'm like an asthmatic now. Senem in front of me, I tried to hold his face, but my hands couldn't move after my desires, my hand, my legs, my whole body became weak. Slowly the darkness merged in me.

"Eir? Eiryana? Eiryana! I didn't mean it this way! Eir! Get up!"
