Chapter 12 - 12. the day after.

Jihha

---------------------------------

Never in my life did I ever imagine, that there will come a time where I would want to kill someone. Additionally, I never thought that, THAT someone would be some super-natural being in the first place! I was not well yesterday and that is why I don't even remember much but the last thing I remember was;

'why were you looking for me?'

'I wanted an apology!"

APOLOGY? Seriously?!?! He was wrong as well. His ego is so inflated that it may cause one to fly against the gravity like a hot air balloon. I don't remember what happened afterwards as if my memory was erased or deleted but I am sure that he must have gone back and I must have slept! I actually remember last night in segments. I do know that he said something that fluttered my systems but I also think that all of that was maybe just my misunderstanding. He hates me and I hate him! SIMPLE! There is no way that he would show me an ounce of warmth.....right? But then why do I keep trying to find something that may have never existed? I shouldn't and oh well, he wants something from me and I want something from him! Anything other than that is either meaningless or it cease to exist.

"SISSY!" A voice squealed from the far east corner behind me and I jumped due to that. I turned around and recognized those yellow eyes and almost platinum hair. "OH MY GOSH! You scared me!" I spoke and took a sigh of relief from my almost cardiac attack. "Also, sissy?" I asked in confusion. The woman just looked flustered a little, "sorry for the mistake, I meant sissy- in- law!". She squealed before she ran towards me and hugged me tightly. Her firm grip was a little too much firm and her press really caused a great amount of ache throughout my anatomy.

"Your future hubby was not really fond of the idea of me being here but I felt really guilty for my behavior last time!" she exclaimed as little atoms of guilt washed across her face. I was about to correct her when I remembered that there is a pretend relationship established between me and my 'partner'. But seriously, future husband? That is way too far- fetched, yet she does not know that; she MUST not know that! "no....you did great! I- why did you feel guilty?" I asked while I gestured her to sit down. She did so and I also took a seat on the couch. "I destroyed your power medium! Without it, you would never adjust to your powers."

"Power medium? The crown? I thought that was just a fancy formality!" I exclaimed. I actually really did not know that. Zaein just chuckled awkwardly before she spoke, "no, well, it is fancy indeed but it is a need. A human body may take years to adjust to super- natural powers. The crown is a balancing medium! A....well....like a....something like a-."

"A filter?"

"YES! As human body may take a really really long time to adjust in its new magical form, without the crown, the effects of powers would crush a human because for the fragile-ness. The crown, or any celestial jewelry, balances the newly found domination factors in the body...so your crushing yesterday was because....." she gulped and fell silent. I just nodded and accepted this lump of fear in my throat. So.....I am dying as well! "well....we can not do anything! I am not mad but give me some time too process and-"

"Oh you are not dying! The crown can be made again. I am sure Luka will do it! It will take some time but until then, lay off extra activities that can tire you!" she said while throwing her hands in the air. Zaein eased me up by breaking the news that I am not dying. "And I mean like...do not work! You human guys have the most torturing types of jobs!" her comment was unexpected but that still made me laugh. Zaein stayed for a little more and we chatted casually.

After she left, I made myself some tea and slowly made my way towards the roof. Once I settled on the bench, I realized the amount of weakness I was going through. Cold air ran shivers down my spine, as soon as it made contact with my body. The time that I spent with Zaein was great! She was totally different from Luka. Both of them had some common perspectives but she was way better than him! But I still....did not feel that comfortable with her. Maybe because I am tired? Yes! totally!

"if you are tired then you should have stayed inside!" that voice came from behind me and I did not even bother to turn around. I knew who it was and how his presence really asserted the must- feel of acknowledgment. "I did not ask for your opinion, sir!" I exclaimed and took a sip from my drink. I heard the shifting of footsteps behind me and soon, he stood in front of me. "Move! you are blocking the view!" I hissed and gestured him to take some steps to the left. But HE was and always will remain stubborn. Luka placed a finger beneath my chin and raised my face towards his gaze and leaned in closer to just say the most ANNOYING thing ever, "my human, I am the view!"

"overrated!"

"w-what?!?!"

"You! your opinion about yourself is overrated!" I finally said it. He looked absolutely terrified as he took a seat besides me. "human you are-"

" nope! you are O. V. E. R. R. A. T. E. D!" I spelled out every spelling in 'overrated' before taking a sip. He just huffed and sat straight. When he turned around to match the track of my gaze, our shoulders brushed slightly. A slight touch and that made me have some tingles in my stomach. Everything was quiet and peaceful. It was like nothing chaotic was ever happening in the world. Everything was really beautiful, until one of us finally spoke.

"you don't remember anything from last night, right my human?". His question threw me off guard. OF COURSE I REMEMBER! I was right there when it all happened! Like how can he expect that I will forget THAT? I took huff of annoyance and told him the truth, "of course I remember!" he immediately got tensed up but I ignored it and continued, "One moment, there I was, driving peacefully back home and boom! Blood! Cold! Almost death! I don't think that is forgettable!"

My answer provided him some sort of relief. His body quickly relaxed and he sat back satisfied. Okay, he ACTUALLY wanted me to remember that traumatic experience! He really is the worst person, or being, ever in existence!!! I wanted to hit him hard but I also wanted to ask him to help me. I feel like I forgot something significant about yesterday night and only HE can help me as if only HE knows what happened, which may also have never happened and may be just a fragment of my misunderstanding. That is why I did not speak about it to him, but what if..... "if you forgot about something then that means, whatever it was, it was not THAT important!" Luka suddenly said while smirking. My eyes landed on his and stayed there, following every little flicker of his gaze, including his quick stare at my lips. His glance at my mouth was momentarily but it looked like as if he had recalled something divine, like any seraphic experience. His gaze finally returned to my eyes again. His mouth was although bended in an upside curve of a smile, but still, I had the feeling that something triggered inside him.....something hurtful? He is so questionable!

After our brief eye contact, he diverted his gaze first and cleared his throat before standing up. "Just take care of yourself human and also know," he turned back with a sad smile on his face... "sometimes oblivion is a blessing." I wanted to ask him about what he meant yet he beat me to it by saying, "eat more, work less, and preferably none, if you want to live long. As for your jewel, it may take more than 72 hours! Once you will have it, I will very much prefer my 'work partner', that I really don't want the assistance of, to fulfill her duties! You are the queen now aren't you!"

"oh...I am never giving you any assistances! I am the queen, you said it yourself! And that means that we are PARTNERS, not any assistances! And as for that 72 hours mark to wait, I can survive much more longer than that if your stupid grace is NOT in front of my sight!" I would rather die that to work with him but working under him is just worse than hell! Also as the queen, I am his partner! I won't bow to him but I will make sure to get him to actually kneel before me!

He suppressed his forming smile, nodded before turning around but stopped and again faced me. "I am glad you are okay, my little human. Farewell, my queen!" and with that, faster than the speed of light, he went away! Vanished is the right term though but still. I loathed his tone and sarcasm that were laced on those last words of his, but then....the first part of his sentence made me feel something similar to what I felt yesterday but the question is....when? When did I felt that?
