The curse of the Xbreed: Silverian & Blackerian
The Past - Part II
After they went inside and stopped in front of a room, an old woman in a white, black-haired canal suit and brown eyeballs, he walked up to the three and stood in front of Arnea.
"Young man, can I help you?" ask the old woman.
"Ah, we happened to be looking for lodging around here, and just happened to be interested in the atmosphere of this building," replied Arnea.
"so apparently. But we only have two rooms left, and the three of you," the woman replied.
"Madam, my wife and I will rent a room, while my friend this one will live in a different room" Arnea replied with a small smile.
The old woman suddenly shook her head once, then said, "Alright. But the two remaining rooms, they are a bit far apart. You can choose, rooms that are in the middle or in the corner of this hallway.”
He then pointed towards a room located in the middle of the hallway, after which, he pointed again to a room in the corner of the hallway of the inn.
"I'll choose the middle, so you can relax a bit" Xyon whispered to Arnea.
"ah! Madam, my wife and I will stay in the room in the corner, while my friend chooses the room in the middle" Arnea said with a happy face.
The old woman then nodded once and replied, "Alright, young man.”
He took a key from the right pocket and handed it to Arnea.
"The payment will be later after you decide to go out,” said the old woman again.
"Thank you, Madam!" arnea exclaimed who immediately took the key.
The innkeeper then reached back into his pocket and took another key, and handed it to Xyon. The young man took it quickly.
"If there's anything I can do for you again, just say, Young man. Then I'll go first" said the old woman, and she walked out of the inn after.
Arnea immediately looked at Xyon while winking one eye, then said, "Alright, Xyon, then, me and Klara will enter the room first.”
"Please, Your Majesty. If you need me, just knock on my bedroom door," Xyon replied, still with no expression on her face.
Arnea nodded. He took his wife by the hand and walked to the room in the corner of the hallway, leaving Xyon alone. As soon as he confirmed that Arnea and Klara had entered, Xyon then stepped into his room, then stood at his door.
He then put his room key into the keyhole, but somehow, it seems like the key is stuck. Xyon had tried so many times to turn the thing, and unfortunately, he had always failed.
"God. It's annoying," he murmured softly, trying to break down the door of the room many times and twirling the key.
As the door of the room did not open, Xyon finally kicked the door hard and an annoyed face.
"Gosh, what a bitch! The old woman is gone, and I have to wait for her here! Uh!" he shouted, then he shook his head twice after kicking the door again violently, but still, still not open as well.
They are now looking at each other. Xyon's face immediately reddened after seeing the warm gaze of the girl.
“Are you ... a resident of this room?” ask the girl while pointing to Xyon's room.
The young man immediately realized his mistake.
"Jeez, Miss, I'm sorry!" xyon said as he bowed before the girl.
"Such a pretty strong kick. Are you the new resident here?" ask the girl.
Xyon immediately stood up straight, then looked at the girl with a reddened face, then replied, "Ah, yes. I'm going to stay here for some time, and just got the keys to this room, but it looks like the door hole is jammed and I can't open it. I'm sorry, Miss. I'd better wait for the hostess of this inn first.”
The girl smiled hearing Xyon's reply and saw her panic. Her warm smile actually made Xyon's face turn red.
"Can I try it?" ask the girl.
"Oh, yes, fine, of course, Miss. Go ahead," Xyon replied, then handed the key to the girl, which he immediately took with his right hand.
He then took a step back, and allowed the girl to try it out for herself. Quickly, the girl put the key into the door hole, and turned it around slowly.
"Not everything has to be done harshly" said the girl, "There comes a time when you have to be patient and do it slowly, for your goals to be achieved. Not everything that is in a hurry is good.”
Suddenly, the door of the room opened. The girl then pulled back the key of the room earlier, then looked towards Xyon while handing him back.
"Not everyone can accept your rude attitude, which might hurt their heart. Be a little gentle, and you'll easily make friends with anyone" she said, then she stepped into her own room.
Xyon replied, "Miss, thank you!"
The girl halted her steps, then looked back and smiled, then said, "Don't you kick that door again. Madam the owner of this building will be very angry and you can be asked to pay for the damage."
He was about to walk back into his room, however, Xyon exclaimed again, "Miss, wait!”
The girl once again stopped stepping and looked back, then asked, "Is there anything I can help you with again?"
"Uh, I'm sorry, but can I know your name? You've helped me, and I must repay you," Xyon replied with a serious face.
The girl immediately smiled widely, then replied, “Replying? Ah, you're like a general. I just opened that door for you. All right, you can call me Hyerin. If you really want to repay my kindness, it is enough to no longer make noise in this inn building.”
"Xyon. My name is Xyon, greetings, Miss! Ah, well, I won't do it again. Thank you for helping me," the young man replied with a happy face.
"Alright, then, Xyon," said Hyerin, then he went into the room and shut the door tightly.
Xyon was still standing transfixed, after meeting the girl named Hyerin.
“Somehow my heart beats so fast, but not because I'm upset,” murmured slowly.
