Chapter 5: Chapter 04

In the magnificent garden, two young children and an older one stood there staring at each other intensely. The teenagers, who they assume to be a knight and an aide, stood behind their older brother on each side and had an intimidating aura surrounding them.

Gulp

They swallowed their saliva in nervousness. The two couldn't help but tremble at the intense atmosphere.

Silence 

Edwin and Linda felt awkward and looked down from Maverick's piercing gaze and fiddled with their hands together.

Edwin decided to break the silence as he looked up. 

"You don't need to worry about us. As you can see we are fine even if m-mama is not—isn't present." 

He stuttered at the end but ignored the tension that was rising on his body.

Linda, looking at her brother, also ignored the fear she had before and stepped forward as she let go of her brother's hand. She crossed her arms on top of her chest and calmly looked back.

"Please mind your own business as we will mind ours and continue what we need to do."

Maverick slightly widened his eyes but that was for a second before he returned to his calm expression. He nodded his head and walked away to reach his destination. 

The knight looked at them for a few seconds with his cold calculating misty grey eyes and turned to leave after the two who walked away.

The twins stood at the same spot as they watched their departing backs. After seeing them finally gone and out of their sight, they fell to the ground on their bottoms. They couldn't help but gasp for more air.

Ugh

Linda started silently sobbing uncontrollably. She held her hands on top of her face which surprised Edwin. He hesitated and touched his cheeks.

Phew

He sighed in relief, feeling no wet tears on his face. He didn't want to show any weakness in front of anyone. He then turned towards his weeping sister.

He watched in panic at the sight of his sister who rarely shows her emotion openly and reached his hands towards her. 

"Linda..."

"I don't get it, why do we have to be here? Why did we have to die? Why? Why? Why?!" 

She cried more, she grabbed him and hugged him tightly.

"Linda?" 

He whispered and hugged her back but he couldn't help but tear up as well. It was hard to see his sister finally expressing her emotions after their grandmother passed away.

They had only their aunt who takes care of them as her children. She wasn't able to have her own. It was understandable to treat her only nephew and niece who just lost their parents and grandmother pitifully.

They couldn't help it. Having always depended on their aunt for emotional support, they were sure to break one day if they didn't cry it out. 

Just being in a strange world and having your sister suffer the pain of their death and the responsibility of avoiding their upcoming deaths, they couldn't easily accept all this as their new reality.

"I miss Auntie Jay! And Nana as well... I wonder if she's watching us even in this unknown world..." 

As she tried to control her cries, she whispered to his ears and buried her face in his shoulders.

Sigh

"Mhmm, I hope Mama and Papa are watching us and are with Nana."

He chuckled softly, agreeing with Linda while thinking about his friends as well. After thinking again, he thought if they even had considered him as his friend and were like Albert.

"We need to be careful of our surroundings, Linda..." 

He whispered to her ears. She stopped her wails and composed herself to look at her surroundings. Seeing no one around the garden, she breathed out in relief.

Linda calmed herself down and released the tension on her body and relaxed her shoulders. As she stretched her left hand and wiped her tears away from her face, she looked at Edwin's face and laughed.

"Your face and eyes are swollen red!" 

She laughed heartily at her pouting brother who couldn't stop his hiccups.

"I'm not the only one..." 

He whined at his sister's words and covered his face in embarrassment.

Linda smiled at his childish behavior and thought back. She couldn't help but feel lucky at the twins' reputation that helped them cover their unusual behaviors. She also didn't know if she should laugh or cry at having an unhealthy and unstable relationship with Maverick.

As a second male lead, many fans felt sympathetic for him for not being the main character's partner. He can only be considered as the main character's comfort or someone she will be with when there is a conflict between the male lead and herself.

She also felt pity for Maverick as she read that novel. But after reaching the part of him killing his younger siblings, she felt uncomfortable. 

Even though they are evil and two-faced, they are still young and are his only blood-related family. Having lost her loved ones, it was reasonable how she held the word family dearly.

He should have at least corrected their wrong actions and advised them rather than getting upset and killing them off because they messed with the person he loves. Isn't blood thicker than water?

She sighed and tried to forget about him but she couldn't shake off the feeling as her body reacted in fear at the thought of him. She doesn't know if her brother showed any reaction happened to his body and decided to ask him.

"I did feel conflicted emotions within me that I can't somehow describe..." 

He mumbled quietly to make Linda hear his words only.

Linda got up from the ground and patted the skirt of her yellow dress. She stretched her hand to help her brother up. They sat back down on the bench they sat on previously. 

"We need to write down all the events and characters that we remember from the novel so we don't forget." 

Linda gazed at her brother for confirmation.

Edwin nodded. He heard footsteps walking towards them again. He cautiously looked up, he saw Mari coming towards their direction with a tray of desserts and drinks on it. 

She brought them to the bench. She turned around and grabbed an object. She brought a table not far from them and grabbed the tray as she put the tray on the long but small table in front of them.

Looking at the colorful desserts, they couldn't help but drool at the sight. The strong and sweet smell attracted them to get closer. They sat for a while and reached their hands to the tray. 

Their hands were suddenly held from touching the desserts. We looked up to see Mari's displeased look. 

"My apologies, but your hands."

Ah

The twins looked at their hands in anger. Mari held two small wet towels in her hands. They curiously looked at it and wiped their hands with it.

She took away the dirty towels and cleaned them again with the bucket of water. They didn't realize that she also brought them with her until now.

She gave the clean wet towels back and they did the same process. After putting the towels away, she gestured to them in approval to eat.

They stared at her blankly. After a moment they turned back to the tray. They couldn't wait any longer and grabbed them and gobbled them up.

Just like that, they try to put everything in the back of their heads for now and enjoy what they have in front of them. They decided to record the information of 'Noble Love of the Hero' later at night.
