Been now weeks since the trio stay as guess of Rosaline.
Shiren is sitting on the bed staring the Mr Knight who is standing in front of her.
"So whats the lady plans today??"She asked.
"Well at least reward me for doing spying to her."
"Yes, I wilm just tell me the goods."
"Well based on my gathered info she will planning to go to the capital tommorow to go in an entranc exam in the academy."
"The academy such blessfull memories." She look up at the cealing recalling her first day in there.
"No its a hatefull memories i don't want to remember!!" The knight shouted hugging himself out of fear.
"Seriously how Greg really make you that kind of person."
"I dont want to recall that."
"Sad for you i supposed."
"Ggrrr.. you really think you could make me suffer by just Recalling my academic days I supposed Rosaline will hate it."
"If you talk again against our lady one more time you be the one going to the infirmary or much worst." She pointed her hands to floor.
"6 feet under."
The knight closed his mouth and step back to the corner.
"Much better so where is Greg?."
"I think he is going to a visit to his house again."
"So another tulips again."
"Yes, another tulips."
Every day Greg give Rosaline different color of tulips. But with how expensive tulips the people are now fascinated about Greg dedication to Rosaline. With those expensive flower in which Rosaline just preserve it using some magic so she can sell it in the capital later.
"What color should you think is it??"
"Well maybe blue I guess we dont know ok I dont know whats Lord.Greg going to give."
Shiren look at the window while listening to the knights yapping Rosaline.
She focus to looking at her and observed she is holding a banquet of blue tulips.
"Looks like your guess is right."
"Wait what do you mean let me see."
The knight look as well and see her holding the blue tulips.
"Do i have some strange power.!"
Shiren look at him dumbfounded.
"Geez fine I be going out I need some training do you want to train with me."
Shiren look at the window again softly said.
"I need some rest like you said."
The knight stop and look her from the door.
"Seriously what happened to your motivation your not like this.."
"Maybe am just changing from what I once was.A lazy student of him but he never gave up on me. "
"Is this the master your talking about the greatest man ever lived."
"Well who do you think was the person I always admire and give compliments. You know I always mock Greg."
"And me too of course but am becoming so curious about who is he your master."
Shiren close his eyes the the winds blow the curtains and make him feel the breeze of the day.
"Well he is the best I would say."
"Whats his name then."
Shiren become silent staring at the window but without the knowledge of the knight she is staring at Rosaline who is smelling the fragrance of the tulips whole sitting on a flower box.
"His name?"
"I don't like to say it. Gives me that memory."
Her voice becomes bitter and the knight can taste it.
He quickly become silent and observed her gazing the window while the sunlight giving her a spotlight in his eyes.
"So Mr.knight do you think you can return to past like can you return your old life."
He ponder.
"I don't think so like my father said you can only do in life is forward."
She sighed closing her eyes and her lips having a slight smile.
"That what will my master would said the future is in my hands but..."
She paused for a moment she reach her hands in the window.
"... but why my present is still him.? Do you know the answer for that one??"
He looks at the mirror seeing his face full of scare and emotion of surrow and confusion.
"I don't know I cannot answer that?"
"I already guess your answer."
"You can leave now I need to be alone."
He leaves the room and close the door without any noice. The room becomes void of sound except for the birds, winds from the outside and the beat of her heart
"My feelings is still intact after those many years." She go closer to the window making the peacefull Rosaline gazing the tulips Greg gave her notice her.
"Oh she is looking at me she is looking at me hehe maybe he can look at me again."
Rosaline stand up and walks towards Shiren.
"Hey Ms.Shiren why the sad face?."
Shiren immediately return to reality and blush at a moment realising that she is staring at Rosaline.
"Oh sorry did you feel unpleasant??" She asked covering her face.
Rosaline laugh and show the tulips she's holding.
"You can smell this it makes the mind go smooth."
Shiren hear the words a words.
