Fake Princess
Cdliii Chapter
I opened my eyes as the air that was blowing increasingly felt piercing the body, “nii-chan,” I said softly as I looked at Haruki's face that still set his eyes forward.
Haruki lowered his head followed by his palm that lifted from my forehead, “you're awake?” Ask what I replied with a slow nod.
I lifted my head off Haruki's thigh, “nii-chan, I want to .. You know,” my words stopped as I sat down to look at him.
“What do you want Izumi to accompany?”
“What's up?” Timpal Izumi who I immediately replied with a headband.
“I, go alone. I just won't be able to do it, if he takes care of me,” I said while moving my body to stand up.
“Are you talking about me?”
I quickly shook my head looking at her, “impossible, I am talking about you, nii-chan,” I replied with a smile returning her gaze.
My eyes glanced at Haruki who had also gotten up, “I will accompany you. Izumi, give me the sword,” she said as she raised her hand towards Izumi.
Izumi stood up with a sword in her hand, “mau where are you going?” He asked while giving the sword in his hand to Haruki.
“Just accompany Sachi for a while. You, stay here,” Haruki said as he turned and walked away.
I turned around following Haruki's footsteps behind him, I raised my hand to grab his hand as Haruki stuck his hand out backwards. During the trip, not a word came out of his lips .. All he did was move his head around, making sure it was safe for us to pass.
“Do it behind the stone, I will wait for you here,” Haruki said as he raised his index finger to a large rock on the coast.
I walked past him when Haruki let go of his hand grip on me, my footsteps halted behind the boulder. I crouched down by moving both my hands digging a hole in the sand that was in front.
I crouched down half as I opened my pants, my body turned back to the sea by looking at some coconut stalks just to keep watch if something suddenly appeared. I lifted my head up, trying to let go of what I had been holding for the past few days.
My eyes widened as I felt something touch my butt, slowly .. I moved my right hand back, “what is this?” My whisper is smoothed when my palm feels touching something, “what is this, hair?” I whispered again followed by my hand that rubbed something behind me.
Make sure ... No. Make sure ... No. Oh my God, at least give me peace in the moments I so desperately need, like this.
I took a deep breath by glancing at the left end of my eyes, slowly .. My head turned around, trying to ascertain what happened. “Sachi, what's up?!” Haruki came screaming for me as my scream came out unconsciously.
“Nii-chan, don't go forward! Stop right there!” I raised my voice so he wouldn't come closer.
“Don't play around, Sachi! What happened?!” Haruki snapped at me from behind that big rock.
I'm not playing around. But give me time, to put my pants back on.
“Nii-chan, believe me,” I answered briefly followed by my fast-moving hand pulling the pants I was wearing.
Haruki walked over, “look at it,” I said as I pointed towards the floating corpse stuck in the boulder.
Haruki stepped his foot closer to the corpse earlier, he moved his foot to touch the corpse, until the corpse that had been lying down changed position to be stretched. Haruki crouched down near the corpse earlier, he raised the sword that was in his hand to approach the body of the corpse, he said,
“Close,” he said, I stepped foot and bowed nearby. “His fingers disappeared,” he continued back, he raised the sword that had cadaver hand on to me.
Haruki stood up, he pulled the sword in his hand until the corpse's hand fell down. “I'll call Izumi. You, wait here,” he said which I immediately reply with a nod of the head.
I walked up to the corpse as Haruki walked past me. I crouched down beside him, long I stared at the dead body of the man whose shape was not perfect. I regained my senses when I stared at the sand dune from the hole I covered earlier, my body back up and then stepped away along the sea water.
I raised my head up, occasionally my body swayed slightly as the ocean waves touched it. “What are you doing at sea in the middle of the night like this?!” My body was slightly aghast as Izumi's voice suddenly shouted.
I glanced around, my eyes stalled at the pair of shining eyes that were staring at me from a distance. “What are you doing there, Squirrel?!”
“Is there something there, Sa-chan?”
I took a deep breath when their voices were heard, “they will make fun of me all out, if I tell you what really happened,” I whispered softly while still keeping my eyes on them.
“I'm purifying myself. So don't ask too many questions!” I shouted back at them, my breath coming out as my two feet moved closer to the shoreline.
“Sometimes, there are a lot of things that bother my mind. Actually, this Sachi is smart or not,” Izumi sneered with a glance towards me when I had been standing next to them.
“My intelligence only works in moments when I find opportunities to gain wealth,” I said crouching beside the corpse, trying not to heed Izumi's words.
“If your son later contracts your nature. I really feel sorry for Zeki,” his lips who crouched near the head of the corpse.
Izumi raised her hand close to the cheek of the corpse, “she lost her tongue,” Izumi continued as she moved her hand back from the cheek of the corpse.
“She also lost her toes, like the child we met earlier,” I glanced towards Eneas who had been squatting near the corpse's feet.
“Seeing this, it seems .. What the child said is true. We can leave this island, again ... Our existence, known only by grandfather and-”
“We can't leave the little boy alone, can we?” As Izumi cut Haruki's words, she moved, bowing her head in a waistline.
“I, can't imagine. If I, being that child,” this time Aeneas chimed in on Izumi's words, “I always give thanks because fate brought me to meet you. Therefore, I seemed to forget my own situation if I left the child,” Aeneas threw his gaze to the side, he bit his lips followed by his moving hand rubbing the nape.
Haruki glanced at me, “then, how about you, Sa-chan?”
“Do I have to answer a question that is already very clear the answer,” I said reply to his words.
“Alright,” Haruki said with a sigh, “provided you all accept the terms from me,” he continued back by looking at the three of us alternately.
