RED EYES

RED EYES
A Preparation


"Show me your punch!" Pinta Eric with a face against me, I hate his sneaky smile.


I immediately gave him a punch. Damn, he managed to dodge. I took out another blow, still in vain. I admit he is a difficult opponent.


"Why show me?" Eric still challenges me.


"Show me!" My love. He laughed softly.


One punch came at me, I dodged. I think I'm a winner. Without me noticing the punch he just took out hit my cheek. I was shocked, my eyes looking at him with eyes wide open.


While I was still managing my annoyance, he managed to kick my right leg until I fell. It's not kidding, it's not training but attack.


Soon he touched my forehead and he started laughing. I know what he's gonna do. My body was weakened, very weak and only able to lie down on the grass. I wanted to curse Eric, but there was no sound I could make. My body is starting to feel pain. He played his magic.


He did not play his magic for long. He quickly took off his magic. Even though the magic was released quickly, I still felt weak. I think it makes me very tired.


"You'll recover for another two hours." Eric. He started sitting next to me.


"This place isn't like the one in your world. Not only strong, but in desperate need of strength."


I was too lazy to talk to him. He cheated! I won't forgive.


"Only I can control that magic. I'll teach you." Further.


I'm not gonna do that magic. The magic is really evil. If Eric knew the pain I'd ever felt because of his magic.

Day 21


Without feeling it, I've wasted my time and my life on Wiender. Every day Erasmus met, every hour met Eric and every second served as queen. Although I had been in Wiender for a long time, not a second did I meet with the royal family.


"Have his eyeball changed?" Erasmus asked Eric, again.


"Not for a second." Reply Eric.


As usual, today Eric trained me until I was tired and Erasmus kept forcing my eyeballs to change color until my head almost broke.


I lay down on the grass that I always step on. Staring at the cool sky and the soothing white clouds. The wind forced me to sleep.


The weather was not hot and it felt quite cool because I was under a tree in the middle of this place. However, my head and back were moistened by sweat. Just imagine me doing ten hours of martial arts training in a warrior outfit made of leather and iron.


Something approached me.


I immediately gave a powerful kick as Eric approached me. Stand up immediately. He was carrying out attacks secretly. Without feeling sinful, I hit her shoulder. I jumped and climbed on his shoulder, he started moaning. The palm of his hand that was trying to reach me, I immediately turned around. And done, I'm the winner.


"I didn't know you were going to learn that fast." Erasmus.


"Of course, I'm a smart woman." Reply honestly.


Eric began to lie on the grass and tried to endure the pain. Finally my revenge was avenged without using magic.


"We just have to wait for your eyeballs." Erasmus said that again.


...


I was unable to get out of the palace, but at least I managed to get out of my room. The boy came up to me and carried his bow. He sat right next to my right. He gave a smile that was so friendly, as gentle as Erasmus's smile.


We leaned against a tree and sat down on the green grass spreading the smell of wet buds. At first I saw a variety of beautiful flowers around me, although the flowers I saw were a little far from where I was sitting, now I saw a sweet child who was busy with his toys. I saw the boy who was getting busy taking care of his bow.


"I didn't expect Erasmus to have such a beautiful wife. If I grow up, I'll find a wife like you." The boy opened the conversation. The two eyes of the boy started to look me in the eye.


I hope he won't mention Erasmus by name again. I'm too upset with him. He reneged on a promise, he ignored me and he locked me up. Do not say his name, hear his name spoken by the wind through just my annoyance will clot.


"Do you like Wiender?" The boy asked as he played an arrow without his arrow. It was as if he was aiming with his right eye closed.


I don't want to answer. Within five seconds he looked at me. Looking into my eyes as if waiting for my answer.


"I love this beautiful place. However, this place is not a comfortable place for me." My answer.


All living beings who witness the beauty of nature in Wiender will surely be fascinated. People will definitely fall in love with this place. I would love to live in this beautiful and peaceful realm, but this place is not my comfort zone.


"Why? Are we making you uncomfortable?" Ask the boy.


"Someone who makes me very uncomfortable." My answer.


"I'm sure it's not the prince who makes you uncomfortable." Guess with certainty. However, his guess was wrong.


I saw the green grass in front of me. A few doves landed before me gracefully. The pigeons stepped on the land and approached the other pigeons, meeting each other as if greeting.


"I love Wiender." The boy's words distract me from the dove.


"My father was a knight of the palace and my mother was a tree nurse in the west. My father had to look after the palace and my mother traveled to take care of nature. I was trapped in this palace so that my father could monitor me, but I still loved this place. I breathed clean air and clear water from this place, it was a love of nature for me because Garde was looking after Wiender. I also love this place because the love of nature is so amazing." Continue the child.


"You're more mature than me." My speech. I don't think he heard my voice because my voice was very slow.


This place is so beautiful, so amazing. This place is also very peaceful and peaceful. I loved this place, but the beauty of this place was destroyed in an instant because I was like a bird in a narrow cage. All kinds of birds fly freely in the vast sky, but only I survive in a cage.


Ever since I was in this place, it was as if I was on another planet. Enjoy another planet and forget my planet. Earth is my home, but not in Wiender. Despite too much pollution, I still love the earth. Not all humans like me are so happy when trees are uprooted and river water crosses its boundaries. However, in all corners of the world there must be bad people who are able to destroy forests for the sake of a successful life.


"If you get out of Wiender, tell them not to sink the island and pollute the air. I am very sad to hear from the birds who say that many extinct animals and people who are not rich become oppressed, not only the earth is sick and even its inhabitants." Continue the child.


I-i know. Globalization is something that is impossible to avoid. However, we must use a vehicle such as a motorbike or car. All humans need electricity. The excavated coal mines will sacrifice the island. All of that goes on every year and it's hard to prevent that.


"I was one of the inhabitants of Wiender who very rarely met my parents because they were busy guarding the earth. Even though I was lucky enough, my best friend never met his parents for keeping your place." Further.


I don't know if he's just telling me or insinuating me. Whatever he said, I was only able to shut my mouth and smile for a moment.


"Have you ever played in the woods?" The boy asked and I shook my head.


"This place might not be so soothing to you. I'll tell you a place every time I hide so I can cry. Go to the middle of the forest! You will find a round table made of stone and five seats also made of stone. The place was surrounded by a statue of five knights who made Wiender. It's so quiet, only trees and the wind can feel you."
