I wonder what my dad and step mother must be doing at the moment. I am very sire those people doesn't care about me. And my step sisters too. Those people must be living a flamboyant life at the moment. I was sitting by the high window, staring at the bright moon when I heard loud footsteps coming towards me.
"Here."
I lift up my head slowly to see the man holding on to a black decorated box.
He took my hand and outstretched it for me to take the box.
"Change into those for the night."
I stared at the box, then at his face. He wasn't smirking as usually does, but his face still look approachable.
"Your brother is an asshole."
"What?!"
"He is also useless."
"Uh. Is he?"
"Yes. He is just a general for nothing. Such a handsome fool. I prefer staying with a sun like you than staying with that boring moon. He is such a poker face."
"You seem to amaze me mortal. How come you are very different from other girls." He mumbled, but I could hear him clearly.
"I can hear you loud and clear."
"Little girl..."
"My name is Leticia," I turned my head to look at his damn handsome face. "don't ever call me little girl. I am not little. I am a graduate with a certified certificate."
"Okay, I am sorry. Leticia, the maid will come over to show you the room you are going to stay in for the time. You just have to change into that to be comfortable."
I avoided him and looked towards the bed for my bag.
It was there, safely secured. A few clothes of mine must be in there. And my phone. My phone!
I quickly jumped down and ran towards the bag. I opened the zipper and as expected I found some of my clothes cause I remembered I had planned to have a sleepover with my bestie after my father's visit.
I brought out the clothes, then my phone and purse.
"What's that?"
"My phone. Oh, I forgot. You have no idea what technology is."
I turned it on, then showed it to him. His face shows surprise as he stared at his phone in wonder.
"This would be in existence in so many years after this year. I hope... argghh!!" I screamed loudly.
"What?!"
"No connection. So I really can't call someone?"
"What is a connection. And you can send a maid to help you call on someone."
Wait, what is this guy saying? How can I survive without the internet. It's impossible.
"The internet..."
"How can I survive without the network, calling my friends and family, without free WiFi?"
"I am sorry."
"I hate your world. I hate this place so much."
I swiped to my phone messages quickly and there, the application of the job I had applied had been been approved.
"Ohh.." I bent down in pain..
"What's is wrong?"
"Can you help me beg your brother. I need to get out of here. I am supposed to have an interview today at the Milos company."
"I am sorry." He apologized instead.
"Sorry? You are his brother, he will listen to you. I am very sure he knows how. Please help me."

"What is wrong?"
Devon mumbled, before picking up his cup of tea tp take a sip. He had his eyes closed and his ears opened. He was very cautious of whatever was happening around him.
"She is crying again."
"Why?" He took a sip from his cup.
"The same reason brother." He answered softly. He moved towards his brother and stood right in front of him. There was a minute of silence before he could move his mouth a speak up. "....tell me brother, is there really no way she could leave this world to her world."
"What would I gain if I entrap her here with me? And besides, she is a very annoying girl and I wish to release her soon."
"What about asking the old dragon." Devon opened his eyes and made a sigh.
"What's my favor to her? That's what he asked."
Devan sighed.
"She cried."
"Feed her some sedatives before she goes to bed." He stood up on his feet and walked away.
"Sedatives?"

"Here, drink this." He stretched forth a cup of tea to me and I frowned deeply. Will that cup of coffee make me calm down and give me a job?
"I don't want it."
I pushed away his hand.
He sat right in front of me, then dropped the cup.
"You are stubborn."
"Yes I am." I didn't disagree with him.
"Brother doesn't know how you got here, why don't you allow him to do his job and probably not make things hard for him."
I didn't reply, neither was I looking at his face.
"Brother will do all he can to get you back to your world. And you should do him a favor by working with him and, not crying here like a baby."
"Your brother is still an asshole."
He stood up on his feet. "You should take the tea. It will make you calm down. Okay?"
I didn't reply, then he turned around and walked away.
After seeing that he was gone, I first started with the box. I opened it and checked what was in it.
A pink dress.
"Such an ugly dress." I pushed it aside.
"Good evening ma'am." A young girl came to me with her head bowed. She was fair in complexion and quite innocent in the voice. But I should be wary of everyone in this world. They must be monsters like that prince.
"How may I help you?"
"I am Bridget, your maid."
"Really?" I frowned. So Devan was serious when he told me he is going to send a maid to get me to a room.
"Yes ma'am. Please let me help you with that."
He walked forward to help mw carry the box. She arranged the dress well in the box. She also helped me with my backpack.
I quickly drank up the tea as she led me out of the room towards another room in this big mansion.
