The Tippingback of Rania's World
Episode 72 - Audrey and the Winding Road

"I can't believe this is the Rania I know. I thought he was dead that night..." Audrey replied to Rania's message.

"Huh, finally got it back." Rania jumped in shock on the bed.

"So you admit that you were going to kill me that night?" ask Rania.

"Tell me who was this? Don't try to trick me" wrote Audrey again.

"So he really thinks I'm dead?" thought Rania.

Czechoslovakia! Rania sends her selfie to Audrey.

"Are you sure now? I'm still alive."

One hour...

Two hours...

Not yet responded by Audrey.

"Where the hell is he? Is he pranking me?" Rania is tired of waiting.

Drrtt... The sound of the phone woke Rania up.

"Well, I've been asleep since when?" Rania picked up her phone tucked under the pillow.

"I still can't believe it. Photos cannot be evidence. Don't even try to prank me" Audrey replied.

"Ah, basic! Just trouble!" grouse Rania.

"But in hindsight, it was only natural that he did not believe it. Princess Rania disappeared when we were first class. And I switched places in second grade. What happened almost a year ago?" thought Rania.

"Come video call. Tell me when I can call you." Rania challenged Audrey.

It didn't take long, Audrey called Rania. Though now at Rania's place it's two o'clock at night. What time is it in Denmark, huh?

"You're really alive?" audrey asked when she called Rania.

"Gee... Who do you think you're talking to right now? A ghost?" rania Syndir.

"Emmm... That's..."

"Why did you leave me alone that night?" ask Rania.

"Whatchu mean? We stopped the search because the weather was so bad" Audrey replied.

"So you mean, is it okay to lose this one worthless life than to sacrifice many lives? Is that?" Rania's getting hot.

"It's not... I asked you, deh. Who took out the tent? You must have intended to kill me first, right? Because your efforts at that time failed" said Audrey.

"You should thank me, because I didn't report the man who nearly killed me twice" Audrey replied.

"When am I going to kill you?" rania fishing rods.

"Well, no guilt at all, huh? The behavior of parents and children is not much different. Not educated."

Rania emotionally read a reply from Audrey, "So she put my parents down because we were poor and not high school graduates? Is this how life is like an ordinary person? Trampled without self-respect?"

Rania never felt a lack of love. Everyone always loves and adores him. He never knew what it was like to be downstairs. All attention was always on him.

He also never knew, did those people really love him, or just take the opportunity to approach his rich family?

However, Rania still grows up to be a warm and affectionate girl to others. He always returned the kindness of people sincerely.

And now, he realized something new. Not everyone gets more attention, especially those in the lower circles. Not infrequently, they have to accept inappropriate insults, like his family today.

This world, just as different as the fairy tales he always read.

"Ah, is that why Mikko once said, that the old me - I mean Princess Rania - never liked fairy tales? I just understand now."

"Look, I'll prove him guilty. And I never tried to kill anyone" Rania said.

"Why be quiet? Huh, right? I don't want to deal with you for long. If you ever harass me, be prepared to deal with my lawyer." Audrey's about to hang up.

"Wait first. Tell me, when do I intend to kill you? Why?" Rania's curiosity was still very high.

Audrey frowned.

"You're not Princess Rania, are you? Whoareyou? Princess Rania will definitely not forget her reason for killing me."

"Reason?" inner Rania.

The beautiful girl tried to convince Audrey that she was the Princess Rania, in order to dig all the information from her.

"That's impossible." Audrey's face changed instantly, as if she was terrified.

Tliks! Audrey decided on the phone.

"Haih, obeyed. I'm not done talking. Not very polite anyway," grumbled Rania.

Brak! Suddenly, Rania's room door opened.

"Mother?"

Rania kept the phone, "Mom didn't hear my phone earlier, did you?" his inner.

"You haven't slept?" ask Mother.

"No, Ma. It's just going to sleep."

"When you call your friend? Wh who? Audrey?" Mom sat on the edge of the bed.

"Ah, it turns out that Mom heard it," Rania's inner self again.

"Yes, Mom," answered Rania honestly.

"Are you friends again?" ask mom again.

Rania shook her head, "Why didn't Mom and Dad tell me they stopped the search after Audrey was found?"

"For what? You are safe and gathered here again. That's the most important." Mother stroked her daughter's hair gently.

Rania lowered her head, "Mother is wrong. Princess Rania has not yet been found. And no one knows where he is now." Rania held back her tears in front of mom.

"Mom, was it true that I almost killed Audrey?" Rania dared to ask.

"You forgot about that too?"

"So right, I almost killed him?" reset Rania.

"Tomorrow I'll tell you. Now we're sleeping, yuk. Look, it's two o'clock at night. Tomorrow you go to school, "elak mother.

"Well... Mothers... I'm curious..." Rania is a little sulky.

"Mom promise, tomorrow I tell you. Now let's rest first. Do you want Mom to accompany? Arka said you often have bad dreams," persuaded mother.

Rania thought for a moment, "Can, deh. I haven't slept with Mom in a long time."

Rania hugged mom tight. Her tears are flowing.

"How will Father and Mother, if you know the fact that I'm not Rania Putri?"

...🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺...

In the morning, I kept a promise. While cooking, I told her how Rania was accused of trying to kill Audrey.

Ten years ago, Rania and Audrey were seven. They are close friends, even though Rania is just a housekeeper's son.

One day after school, Rania buys two boxes of milk and one of them is given to Audrey. But for some reason, Rania asked him to trade again.

Shortly after drinking the milk, Audrey was poisoned. He apparently drank milk that was almost expired.

Audrey's parents accused Rania of deliberately asking Audrey to exchange the milk because she knew it was almost expired.

Later the accusations were increased, that Rania deliberately bought milk that was almost expired so that Audrey failed to become a school representative in the badminton race that should be represented by Rania Putri.

"What makes sense, that little boy was planning to kill?" rania commented after she finished telling the story.

"Well... That's what your father said before. But they are stronger, there are some lawyers behind them. Your father can only resign and let himself be fired from that place" replied the mother.

"Based on the rich. Strangely his behavior. In my opinion, it is more depraved of them, who leave me alone in the forest," angry Rania.

I just kept quiet hearing it.

"Eh, but I used to be a rich man... What was my nature then, too, huh?" thought Rania.
