Chapter 4: CH 4 : Idiotic lovebird

*FWIP*

As I take back the knife embedded in the guy's eyes, droplets of blood fly off and fall on the princess's cheeks.

[This...you Rosa, are not a normal person are you?]

Well ain't that interesting coming from someone who can summon fire on will, but I guess it was a bit unexpected for her.

[No, I'm a normal person. Stab me right now and I will die, slap me or berate me and I will feel sad]

[bu-but you just committed such.. such evil without hesitation, I mean isn't that...you know, a bit]

[Mam, I don't think you are qualified or in a moral high ground position to say such heroic words to me]

[UGH!! Shut up! just answer me now]

seems like that annoyed her a bit, so she doesn't like condescending tone, that's good to know for future

But again, it's not like I'm wrong. She who forcibly summoned me without my will and trapped in this situation of helping her escape is no doubt, not a good deed.

[You are wrong about that earlier claim, I did feel hesitation, a mountain ton even, even now I feel like the scum of the world... but now we can wander around people and much safely get to that beastmen continent of yours]

[hmm...that is]

[I didn't have any other method come to my mind, so instead of waiting for a better method and risking the guards catching us and torture me, I much rather take the easier way out]

[...No..You are right. I sincerely apologize for my words, it was not befitting of me to say those even though I was the one who called you here. It seems like the stress of escaping is getting to me and it's affecting my judgment] 

[nah, it's alright. I mean I would be pretty shocked too if I was in your shoes, but now we must leave this village quickly]

I put the knife back into my robe's pocket and check myself for the last time in the mirror.

I had him change my face back to what I looked like in my original world. Straight Raven black long hair, green round eyes, and a slightly brown slim but sharp face. 

Besides me is the princess, who kept the same bob haircut but changed the color to a slight blonde, her eyes to bright red, and removed some of that cute chubbiness from her face.

Does she still look cute? I think definitely more.

But why does my opinion matter, I think every legible woman is cute.

...

...

As we leave the small village and enter back into the forest to make our way to the next village. Tiredness starts taking its roots inside our bodies.

We find a small cave and Anabelle pulls out her trusty carpet and lays it down. I again gather some sticks and lit them easily with her fire.

We huddle together closely, trying to escape the chilling cold outside and warm each other a bit.

As both of us become more comfortable with our bodies leaning on each other, I open my mouth

[So is there really no such thing as police in this place?]

[No, I don't even know what that means, but like I said earlier, here crimes like this are investigated by the church and the noble family of Zen who are under the thumb of my father]

[Then are you sure, they won't look into this murder?]

[Oh they will, it's obligatory after all. But it will be just for the show, to make those villagers think someone is on their side keeping them safe. The murder of that fallen noble doesn't affect them in any manner, so won't bother]

[But did they know that he could also change people's faces?]

[Yes, but it would be some time before they link that to us, by that time we will be far away from the kingdom territory and they also won't be able know our new faces thanks to you]

[yeah...I guess you are right...*fwaaahhh*]

A loud yawn escaped my mouth as I rest my head comfly on her shoulders. Seeing the warm fire crackle and the warmth inside my body growing, emotions I don't like start leaking from inside me

[I really hate you right now]

[heeehh?! that came outta NOWHE---MM]

[shhhh....just listen] I continue rambling as I halt her speaking with a finger resting on her lips.

[I really, really, REALLLY!! hate you right now]

[...]

[Your family was shitty to you, but my family wasn't and I really miss them right now]

[My father is defiantly shooting up a storm right now trying to find me. My mother is likely calling every single person she knows to help find me. My sweet little sister should be crying rivers of tears right now]

[They will keep missing me and feeling sad about me for the rest of their lives, not once getting the closure of what actually happened to their daughter, I mean they can't even find my dead body I presume]

[Me and my friends who were going to enter the working environment together, experience new things together, laugh together, cry together, fight together, I'm going to miss out on all of that, instead, I'm here trapped with you in helping you do some grand escape not even related to me in slightest]

As my rambling continues, the more I get reminded of the good things back and the awful things happening here.

The more I get reminded, the more violently my eyes bawl, and the more violently my body tremors. 

As my face becomes more distorted with tears, the faster I punch her shoulders.

The perpetrator behind all this simply doesn't speak a word as instructed, she simply leans her head forward, resting her chin on top of my shaking head, and just runs her tender hands through my long hair, patting my head and back in the process.

Just this simple act of intimacy was enough to bring butterflies in my stomach.

I knew I was falling deeper and much deeper in love with the person who was the cause of all this shitiness I'm feeling right now.

But my feeling was not under my control, especially right now.

and that made me cry even more violently.

I know I shouldn't be such an idiotic and dumb-brained lovebird, but that was who I am.

My emotional promiscuity was actually just non-existent

Some parts of me loved it and some hated it.

that's just the way things go

I repeat constantly to justify my feelings
