Was it foolish for an overachiever to wish to reach the top and be higher than everyone else to not get hurt? Was it foolish for Coco to achieve what she wanted? Was it foolish for someone like Coco to drink away her sorrow and pain, but neglect her spouses? Was it foolish for Coco Hughes to burn her family's money to the village's bar and bring debt under her name?
YES, IT'S FREAKING FOOLISH! Coco roared in her mind as she seethed in anger due to Coco's idiotism and stupidity. How can someone be so depressed, waste away their life when they have people to feed?! Coco Hughes was dumb and naive! How did she manage to marry her spouses when she's that useless?!
"You big dumb, useless asshat!" Coco punched her pillow and accidentally created a hole, her fist going through it and punching the bed instead which broke under the impact of her punch. That only caused for a prominent vein pop on her forehead, fueling her anger.
"Aghhh!! This is so frustrating!" She screeched and stood up from the bed.
Now that she recalled the past Coco's memories. She wants to strangle herself to death because she's useless, good-for-nothing, drunkard, and a bastard. Imagine trapping four people into a marriage to yourself just because their parents couldn't pay off their debt to her! Imagine!
Coco Hughes is known in their village as a drunkard and a piece of turd. Trappings not one, not two, not three, but four people in a marriage with her! Not to mention, Coco threatened the first and second spouses when it comes to spending!
Coco had beaten the third spouse that he looked like he was begging to be killed instead of staying alive! She had been heartless and merciless when it comes to her spouses, rendering them scared of her and taking a lot of responsibilities instead of her.
They were the ones who did their best to earn money even if they can't be employed, only to have Coco Hughes take that money and spend it to get herself knocked out by some expensive booze that is sold by the pub down the village.
The head of the house, Coco Hughes, was notoriously known for her temper and issues around the village. She often gets into fight and get herself beaten, if she ever did win a fight, she'll just order another batch of booze to celebrate her win.
This behavior of hers had her spouses in trouble. It almost has gotten them sell their body just to pay the growing debt under their wife's name. Actually, scratch that, Coco did want to sell her spouses' bodies because they refused her multiple times.
They didn't want anyone touching their bodies and due to Coco's usual temperament, the first and third spouses had got themselves fighting back against her.
The third spouse, Alhai, had fought back incredibly hard the last time and made Coco mad. She ended up beating him until his skin is filled with black and purple bruises, unable to stand and cry out for help.
The memory that day was fuzzy for Coco, but Coco Hughes left the house after beating Alhai and drowned herself with alcohol down in the pub.
No wonder Coco got herself killed in the middle of nowhere! It's because she's useless as turd! Coco released another series of screams and gripped her hair, beyond frustrated to herself right now.
She spent a whole day motionless in the bed because the system— as she calls it now— rewarded her with Coco's memories. The system showed her that she's an actual trash that deserves to be treated as such in this dimension. It was no wonder why the villagers looked so shocked that she came from the forest, carrying those ripe fruits.
Coco never lifted her hands to work! She can feel her blood boiling once more, She's so freaking useless! A good-for-nothing! What's more maddening is that I'm Coco now! I've never experienced myself being punished because of bad temper and behaviour in my previous life, but the Coco in this world spent so much time creating enemies left and right!
Big fat tears rolled down her cheeks as she fell back to the floor, her head slamming against the wood and creating a loud 'thud' on the wood. The sound was loud enough to alarm the people downstairs.
She didn't stop her inner moping and turmoil when she heard footsteps going up the stairs. No, she could care less of what they think. Her image has already hit rock bottom because of past Coco so what is a sight of mere sobbing little old her would do? She wants to be left alone for now and let her grieve at how useless she was.
She heard the door creak open before Lala's cries echoed in the room.
"Cocoooooo!" The fairy rushed inside the room and dropped herself on top of her chest, crying big fat tears like her. Coco couldn't stop herself anymore and cried with her. The pair cried and cried, sobbing to each other as the fairy hugged Coco's head.
The fairy doesn't why her friend was crying, but she's sad to see those tears rolling down her cheeks. She can't stand to see her friend cry! Coco should be happy! Like her!
They didn't even notice Zaque and Heiren standing by the door. Awkwardly glancing with each other as they watch the pair cry their heart's out.
It was weird. This is the first time they saw Coco cry like a baby. To a fairy nonetheless.
Zaque could tell that there was something different from his wife. When he saw her by the market's street, he felt like his world stopped when their eyes met. However, his heart dropped to his stomach when she looked at him like he is just a random stranger.
Something must have happened. She did disappear for two weeks after their fight, but what happened?
