0087. Le return de Killian ouvre de vieilles blessures (Killian's return, opens old wounds)
The short-legged wooden table is where warm tea is served on a simple patterned ceramic cup. In the middle of the table has been prepared several types of sweet snacks that have been ordered on the waiter, ranging from snacks made from glutinous flour, rice flour, dried fruit, to nuts.
“Drink the tea while it's still warm, Queen. Don't you like tea very much?”
The question was raised by the man who now removed his head covering. To make it easy to talk to four eyes, he deliberately brought his interlocutor to the clothing store that had been the topic of conversation. The crowded clothing store was hers, arguably another branch of her clothing store named Assogate. Clothing stores that had mushroomed in Robelia, to become a subscription to Senorita and Senora from the noble class.
At first the guards accompanying Kayena did not give her permission when they were about to speak together. However, after Kayena explained it, the bodyguards employed by Emperor Kwang Sun were only able to grant permission. Kima was asked to wait in the other room, while Kayena and Killian spoke for four eyes in the man's study.
“How can you be here?” kayena asked, opening the conversation with her hands began to touch the tea served to her. “Isn't the last time you were in Robelia? Managing the bustling Assogate?”
“I am an explorer, if you forget.”
Kayena smiled faintly after sipping her warm tea. “Then, what do you mean talk like that?” ask Kayena later. He immediately brought their chat at the core of the discussion. “Where did you know about Klautviz de Mere?”
Killian did not answer. There was a mysterious smile slanted thinly on his lips.
“Why did you bring up about a previous life? Who does this have anything to do with his previous life? You speak as if someone has lived twice through the process of reincarnation.”
“What do you know, how old am I?” instead of answering, Killian asked a question. The man with an easy going casual nature and impressed the player, this time looking more mysterious.
One type of man to look out for, because Kayena knows if his personality is not easy to guess.
“Twenty-seven years.”
At first Kayena thought Killian was in her early 20s, just like Kima, who was just 23 years old. Tailor from Assogate is 27 years old. One year younger than Prince Kaezar, one year younger than King Kaizen. Three years older than Kayena. Killian does have a baby face, so her original age is really well covered. The man himself revealed that he was 27 years old.
“When you think I'm still in my early twenties, there's actually nothing wrong.”
“You mean? Wasn't you born one year after the birth of King Robelia?”
“True,” replied Killian. “However, it is my age in his previous life.”
Kayena was speechless to hear the sentence that Killian had just thrown. Age in previous life? Mean what?
The contents of Kayena's head worked hard to digest a sentence that hummed the various meanings. Is it possible that Killian has also experienced reincarnation, just like him?
“Since the beginning I know if you have done reincarnation.”
Kayena jumped in shock, of course. However, he was good at covering up the response with the look of his face that still looks calm.
“I also know if this is your second life, Your Highness.”
Kayena was even more astonished by the words of the young man who had set foot in the ten countries spread across several continents. How could Killian know? While he alone does not know anything, when he woke up in a time when he had just lost his first child. Until now, Kayena did not know what made her able to repeat time through reincarnation. However, one thing he believed in. God takes the greatest part in turning the lives of His people upside down. Kayena believes that God is giving her a second chance to be happy.
However, who would have thought if there was someone else who knew the incident beyond reason. Especially Killian. A figure that is somewhat foreign to Kayena herself. When asking Kima to find out information about Killian's identity, not much data could be collected. Given that Killian did not come from Robelia, his hobby also explored the earth. Traces are almost difficult to detect when it has moved from one country to another. Kayena had suspected that Killian must have a background that should not be underestimated.
“Where do you get such confidence from?” kayena asked when she lifted the ceramic cup containing her tea again. “You believe in reincarnation?”
“Of course,” replied Killian, lightly. After finishing the tea in his own cup. “Because I've experienced it myself.”
Quickly, Kayena was inside the heart. It's only fitting that Killian is so relaxed and confident when it comes to second life. Apparently, Killian has also reincarnated—born again. Now, Kayena was confused herself. It must be how he responds to reality; that he is not the only reincarnated human being in this life.
“This is life to my seven.”
“Then, why did you know about Klautviz de Mere? What was the previous life ...you also lived during the reign of Kaizen?”
Killian's headband gave it, making Kayena link her forehead.
“Then, how did you know about Klautviz de Mere? Hasn't Klautviz de Mere just appeared in this life? I remember very well that in his previous life Klautviz de Mere never appeared,” Kayena explained. When he saw Killian, he immediately corrected. Realize if he is too trusting in the statements of his interlocutors. “Don't try to lie to me, Killian.”
“How dare I lie to you.”
“Lantas, on what basis should I believe in your words?” ask Kayena again. “You think I'll just believe it? even if you managed to guess if I have indeed reincarnated.”
“What should I make as proof, so that you are sure? Is it with the truth that I know the events when you ended life in a previous life?”
Kayena fell silent. Still trying to test the extent of his interlocutor's knowledge, if indeed he has reincarnated. Just like her.
“That night, when the King had just returned from a trip, around the early hours of the morning where people were busy sleeping in the dark marshes of his skin the night, he said, You made a big decision to leave the throne you had been guarding. Leave the family, along with a new red baby a few days you were born to the world.”
Killian told me with eyes that made Kayena look like she could look glassy. How stupid he was at that time, choosing to take decisions on the side of the side just because it was not strong enough to withstand the inner pressure.
“You choose to end everything using a dagger, after making sure your waiter arrives safely in Kyen. After making sure that the red baby you were born will arrive at the residence of his grandfather, Grand Duke Pexley,” continued Killian. “On that cold night, you alone faced the pain that had arrived at the top. You take the decision that actually harms yourself and others—“
“You don't know how I feel!” cut Kayena with tears she couldn't hold. The clear crystal just decayed, without Kayena noticing. Evidence that events that occurred in a previous life are still so imprinted in memory.
“Iya, I don't know what you're feeling,” Killian replied as she moved on. Walked steadily towards Kayena. “I don't know how difficult and painful you were then,” he continued when taking a kneeling position next to Kayena who was still sobbing.
“Still on the same night, when you were found with a critical condition, the King immediately deployed all the best doctors the kingdom had to save you. However, Kayena's sobbing” did not subside, making one of Killian's hands move to wipe away the tears on her pretty face.
“You've given up on surviving.”
“…”
“You left after making sure that your baby will be fine with his Grandpa. However, you do not have time to ascertain how people feel after you make that decision. Especially the feeling of five men who lost the spirit of life post you actually left them without saying goodbye.”
Kayena's heart was squeezed when she remembered how heavy the pressure she felt when she decided to end her own life. That night, there was no other way he could think of, except killing himself. That way he considered the truest way to end the Kaizen madness. He also held the belief that after his death, his father, as well as his two brothers would definitely raise Cassel well. At that time he did not think too much about Kaezar, because indeed he did not realize how important the presence of the man.
However, when hearing the re-enactment of the incident from the mouths of others, it felt Kayena had become the most stupid and selfish human being. He was stupid for giving up. Selfish for not thinking further about the feelings of those who are always there for her.
“Sorry, because at that time I could only be around you, but can not help reduce the pain you feel.” This time Killian's other hand moved to grab the back of Kayena's clenched hand. Stole it, so that it can be held.
“Sorry, because I am also one of the contributors to the pain you feel.”
Kayena's cry still seemed. Kayena is a typical expensive woman who will not show her cries to just anyone. However, this time he succumbed to the fact; that in fact, he was still harboring wounds from his previous life. Both then and now, the wounds inflicted by them managed to keep his feelings confined in the same fear.
“I've died and been born repeatedly in the hope of meeting you again. When this opportunity finally comes, I have promised to make up for everything.”
