SECOND WORLD.
28. The Story of Carissa Hubert.

***the Holmes kingdom***

…Callysta Angelina or Carissa Hubert…

I still can't believe what I'm going through now, why am I in this kingdom? is this just a dream or is it real? what am I supposed to do?

Sit on the bed and think what should I do? but I don't know if I can think of anything?

"miss..do I need to call the palace physician?" feyrin asked with a look on her face that was worried about seeing me.

I looked towards Feyrin who was standing in front of me, I saw an intense Feyrin.

"Feyrin how long have you been here?" I asked to see Feyrin.

"you forgot miss, the servant came with you miss, the servant is your personal servant." Feyrin replied with a frown looking at me.

'i didn't forget, but I didn't know anything?' I murmured in my heart to see Feyrin.

I let out a heavy sigh of mine, would Feyrin believe it if I said I wasn't from here? I'm not the lady he knows and serves?

"Feyrin, earlier did anything happen to me?" tanyaku carefully.

"yes lady, you drowned in the lake behind the palace near the forest."

"drowning, how can it?" I was wondering because I could swim there was no way I could drown, what happened?

"sorry lady.you attempted suicide by plunging your lady into the river."

"suicide, why is that Feyrin?" I was wondering, why would I want to kill myself?

I was shot to death why am I drowning here?

"because you're desperate, miss."

"desperate?"

"miss..what happened to Miss? why don't you remember anything that happened to Miss?" feyrin said with a sad face worried about seeing me.

"Feyrin.." call me by pulling and exhaling my heavy breath.

"honestly, I don't remember anything?" I said lie, because there is no way I would say that I am not the nonaanya, not the owner of the body that I now occupy.

'wait..Antoni and Leo are here too, their faces are similar even though there is a slight difference from the color of their hair and eyes, is my face still the same or different?' I murmured in my heart.

"Feyrin, can I ask for a mirror?" my spoken.

"what's wrong, miss?" feyrin asked confusedly.

"please get me a mirror !!"

Feyrin immediately took out a small mirror from my dressing table, while I saw there was a larger vanity mirror.

"Feyrin stays there .." I ordered Feyrin to stay put.

I walked closer to the dresser that had a big glass there, slowly I saw from a distance the reflection of myself, getting closer to the mirror I saw the reflection of myself still with my same face, he said, but the color of her eyes and hair is a little different, my eyes are a bluish silver color that sparkles with blonde hair color, very beautiful with porcelain-white skin.

"is this me?" I asked as I touched my face, hair and kept blinking my eyes to see if I was wrong with what was in the mirror reflection?

"what's wrong, miss? is there something wrong with the mirror?" feyrin asked puzzledly at my behavior who continued to pay attention to my face, eyes and hair.

"not the mirror is wrong, Feyrin..would I have been like this?"

"what do you mean, miss?"

"my face, my eye color and my hair? was it like this before?" ask me to look at Feyrin from the mirror reflection of the dresser.

"sure lady, you from childhood have been like that, since the first time I became your personal servant."

I still silently looked at the reflection of my face in the mirror, the same face but with different eye and hair colors, even whiter and brighter skin, a very well-groomed body, I kept looking at my whole body which had no change at all.

This beautiful body tried to commit suicide by drowning itself in the river, did anything happen to the owner of this body that he tried to kill himself?

'if I occupy this body that is not my body, where does the owner of this body go? did he also exchange with my body? or is he no longer in this world?' I murmured in my heart while still standing in front of the dresser mirror.

"miss..nona why? miss is okay? do I need to call a palace physician?" asked Feyrin who was more confused and worried to see my behavior.

"miss.you don't think no more, don't commit suicide again, miss.." said Feyrin afraid of my behavior like crazy.

"Feyrin, why would I want to kill myself? what the hell's going on? sorry... Feyrin I don't remember anything?" my word approached Feyrin and squeezed both of Feyrin's shoulders.

"miss, lady calm down…!!" feyrin retorted fearing my behavior and grimacing due to the squeezing on her shoulders.

"say…!!"

"nona wanted to kill herself out of disappointment just to be the prince's second concubine, and not to be the crown prince's future wife or concubine." she was afraid to endure the pain of a squeeze on her shoulder

"that's all…?" my reply frowned and released a squeeze of my hand from Feyrin's shoulder.

"yes, miss is just that, so please don't act recklessly anymore" Feyrin said.

"servant is afraid of losing miss, please don't leave your servant lady." said Feyrin pleading with tears that had soaked her cheeks and covered her palms in front of her chest.

I look at Feyrin with a sad look on her face looking at me.

'what really happened to you, Carissa?' I murmured in my heart to see Feyrin and to hear a glimpse of the story of the life of Carissa the owner of the body I occupied.

Slowly I walked and sat on the sofa in the room, I saw Feyrin still crying, there was fear and sadness from Feyrin's eyes.

"Feyrin..come home!" call me.

Feyrin approached me, and I ordered him to sit beside me, although he refused but I forced him, because I wanted to extract information about Carissa's life.

How should I know Carissa's figure and how is life on her path all along? in the meantime I've decided I'm going to be Carissa while looking for a way to get back to my body, if that can happen?

"Feyrin.I completely forgot everything about me, probably because I drowned in the river" I told a lie because there was no way I could be honest with the circumstances that were happening to me at this time.

Though there is no way people drowning in the river can forget the memory, but I have to keep a secret who I really am?

"miss..what, do you need a palace healer?"

"no Feyrin, my body is fine, just a memory of my past self that I forgot, can you tell me everything from the beginning, to why I could try to kill myself?"

Feyrin looked at me intensely, after which she nodded her head in agreement, slowly and patiently Feyrin told me everything.

flashback…

Carissa Hubert was the third daughter of a noble family in the kingdom of 'Jericho' ', precisely the third daughter of Duke Emris Hubert one of the high officials of the royal advisor 'Jericho', the neighboring kingdom that had already bowed to the power of Holmes's kingdom because it lost the war 5 years ago.

6 Months ago the kingdom of Holmes issued an announcement from the decree of king Louis Theodore, in search of the future crown princess, the future wife of the second prince and the third prince.

The king's edict mentions directly some of the king's daughters and the daughters of the high officials of Holmes's kingdom, Jericho's kingdom and Themes's kingdom, a kingdom already subject to Holmes's royal rule.

The three kingdoms were required to provide 5 princesses from the king's ducal class and the princesses of the royal nobles, to be candidates for the crown prince's wife and the two princes of Holmes' kingdom, to be elected directly by the crown prince and princes.

The 15 candidates were presented with several challenges to complete and sought the most superior, all assessments at direct value by the crown prince and princes, until looking for 3 candidates who will be re-rated to look for the best to be the candidate for crown princess, the second prince's wife and the third prince's wife, while the rest will be their concubines.

So the crown prince, the second prince and the third prince each had 5 women, 1 legal wife and 4 concubines, that was the rule set by the king Louis Theodore, the rules are very ridiculous but can not be denied by anyone even though the king is under the rule of the kingdom of Holmes.

Carissa Hubert followed all those challenges and could not get into the top 3, because it did not have any skills, to just be a prospective concubine, he said, Carissa did not despair because she still had the opportunity to become the crown prince's concubine, because Carissa had fallen in love with the crown prince, but unfortunately the crown prince did not choose her to be his future concubine, with the reason Carissa was not special in the eyes of the crown prince, to become a prospective concubine of the second prince.

Carissa Hubert initially tried to learn to accept it even though her heart was heavy, but a few weeks after finishing the top 3, Carissa received threats from strangers and insults from several other prospective concubines, because Carissa who could not be anything just lucky to be the daughter of one of the nobles to be on the list of candidates for the wife of the crown prince and the princes of the kingdom of Holmes.

Because he could not stand the terror of threats and insults that were thrown continuously, until he was always the subject of ridicule from other prospective concubines became desperate and decided to end his life, he said, and there is one most important thing that makes him so desperate that, Carissa can't take away his love for the crown prince that couldn't possibly be his, the heartache of feeling his love unrequited makes Carissa Hubert decide to commit suicide.
