The day was bright. The sun shone out on the whole manorial estate. Animals graze at the outgrown grasses while farmers plow and cultivate the fields.
Pheia, her mom, and Prince Steel together with Alani are inside a red-plated carriage. This carriage was rented by Joan in an exclusive carriage renting shop with the cheapest price she can get. The carriage was styled lavishly but emanates a common feeling. It's as if it was owned by someone outstanding but not that much, a nouveau riche per se. Although financially unstable, Joan really choose to rent in that exclusive carriage renting shop as they are a privately owned business that keeps the information of the renters confidential as much as possible. Even the chauffeur of the carriage didn't ask about how Pheia's group acquired Deputy Commander Costanillo's seal.
The carriage continuously drove into the mudded road for two consecutive days as yesterday the rain started to drizzle the lands. Putting out

"Pheia, wait for a second," Alani calls for her best friend to stop. They have been walking too far from the Bairn estate. Which adds to the aching foot of Alani. Pheia halted her step and looked behind her. She doesn't know if this girl two meters away from her, who is now panting and sweating profusely, is stupid or not.But she sighed and walked towards her now, deep inside Maiden's heart, considered her close friend. At least not an acquaintance anymore. It was a good improvement in Maiden's social skills.Pheia then asked, "Why? Is there anything you need?" She glance at Alani once in a while as she also examined the place that they were in. Earlier before she walks out of the group, she had already sensed some peculiar movements on the east side of the forest. So she purposely walks away from the group and heads unto it. But she didn't calculate that this considered close friend followed her until here in the area w
The three girls stopped what they were doing and fixed their eyes on the two guys."Steel, is this your friend who tries to kill Pheia?" Joan said angrily.The prince was stiff for a moment and nodded. He knew that his friend was playful but didn't expect it like this. And he knew Joan's affection towards her daughter so he didn't talk much but nodded. He respected this mother after all."Pardon, madam. As you can see, even if we tried to, we can't do anything to your daughter because she has the skill." said the man who smiled and added, "I didn't expect you here Prince Steel. Aren't you in the academy?"The Prince nodded and said, "A long story. Bairn, I need your help."-------------------------When they arrived at the mansion's gate. The guards' attention turn sour as they knew that this group of people were the ones earlier. They
Lady Rhina whose been sitting arrogantly earlier and was excited to ridicule their guest has her energy lowered down seeing that their guest was eating as if it was their normal way of eating. Especially the girl who came last. She might be a bit fat but the gracefulness she exudes while eating was tantamount to her own table etiquette or was even higher.An hour ago, when she and her parents arrived from their trip from one of her father's affairs. They were told that they have guests that were welcomed by her older brother. And these guests were the ones with Prince Steel from a neighboring manor. She was so interested and couldn't help but asked who are they in further detail. And when she knew that they were peasants, she couldn't help but be more interested to ridicule them. She has the attitude after all.After sitting down, Pheia finally said her greeting that most of the audience are waiting for. "It is my pleasure to meet and share this meal with you, Earl Bairn, Madame, and L
When morning comes, Pheia, Joan, and Alani are already waiting for Lady Rhina at the receiving area of Earl Bairn's mansion. Lady Rhina walks out of her room and immediately heads toward the receiving area. When she arrives, she unknowingly shoots glares of daggers at Pheia. Pheia sighed as she sees how Lady Rhina's actions are caused by their consecutive disagreement or better say it, their petty conversations, yesterday. "You are all here.", Lady Cristiana said enthusiastically, as she emerged from the side door of the receiving area. "Good morning, Lady Cristiana.", politely greeted by the three guests."Good morning, Mother.""There's no need to be polite.", Lady Cristiana said. "I know what had happened the other day and yesterday is not fully settled. So, I want everyone, especially Pheia and Rhina to make amends." She gestured for Pheia and Rhina to get closer to her. She holds each of their hands and puts them together, "What should you say, Rhina?"Lady Rhina huffs with exas
"Shit! Why do they have to do this?" Maiden turns herself towards the person she's talking to. "Ma'am, the board of directors said that what they've done is the best for the company," Adela, her secretary, said to Maiden while trying to act normal and with sense."The best for the company? Huh? Do they know what they're talking about? There's no other way in saving this damn company than with my own decisions! Those old geezers have done nothing than spouting accusations about my inability to run this corporation. Yet, not even a single one of them has given tantamount sweat of efforts that I did even before I turned of legal age until now. But still, they think they've done something worthy!" Maiden angrily slammed the desk hard and furiously walks towards the bar of her office.Later this morning, she has found out that the board of directors is having a meeting den
The chirping of birds, swooshing of winds, and the rustling of trees and a little specks of chatters from the outside. Serenity and peace. Such a place everyone always wanted to experience aside from the hustle of the city. So as what Maiden thinks and feels as well. She never thought she would be in this kind of state feeling calm and relaxed for the very first time.However, Maiden, widen her thoughts and ponder, But wait! the Last thing I remembered was, I was poisoned by Adela. So how did I end up being in this place?Ah.
Maiden walked back and forth in her small room. After a couple of days of recuperating to heal her head, she can finally get out of her bed. However, she hasn't gone so much outside of the room and chose to remain in it the entire time. She doesn't even bother to welcome the sun outside even though it's tempting her to the extreme.When she woke up in Pheia's body back then, she tried to find in Pheia's memories who Pheia was and the people around her. Maiden is definitely confused about how to recognize herself. Whether to call herself Maiden or just accept that she is now Pheia.She sighed while sitting at the edge of her bed and whisper to herself, God knows how many lies I tried to con just to save my
The first thing she feels when she wakes up this morning is the heavy thump of her head. Yesterday, she knew she saw visions, well, the memories of Pheia.It showed how she was, as a person. And as far as she was concerned, they are way too opposite. She's kind, she's helpful, generous, and all good characteristics of a lady. While Maiden couldn't even compare to her goodness. She can't even make good friends before. But one thing that she knew she outweighed Pheia was her confidence.Pheia was not at all confident in herself. She couldn't even take a single glance at her body without being upset. She often bowed herself in front of many people because she was so fat, even though people around her would hardly comment on it. But she still felt upset and discriminated against.Don't worry Pheia. I will bring
