Chapter 2: The Start

Surprised by the unexpected events, I tried to relax rather than panic and get myself in trouble. I calculate what would be my next move and decided to get out of my hiding place and continue walking sneakily.

As I was walking, I saw clothes hanging on a rope connected to two trees and I thought of an idea.

I know it was wrong to steal but I didn't have a choice. I have to wear the same clothes as them so I don't stand out and can roam around freely to investigate what is happening to me. but I'll ensure that one day I'll pay back the clothes that I stole from it's owner.

The clothes I stole were a long dress, it was not extravagant like the one from the young girl from earlier but it was simple with a color brown and a dirty white shade in its sleeves. I started moving out and blended into the small crowd where people were selling .

As I tried not to get attention, I still can sense some people looking at me.

look at that lady

I haven't seen her here before

she has fair skin and is pretty, is she a noble?

but she's wearing a commoner gown though.

people near started talking about me.

I can hear you all you know

I mumble to myself

Then an old man walked towards me and talked to me.

young lady, are you new here? from what I know we don't have a citizen here with skin as fair as yours because this is a village that focuses on farming as their source of living, and I'd never seen a hair as black as yours!

erm...ah... it's because I'm a foreigner hahaha...

I answered awkwardly as my mouth automatically spoke in a new language

oh I see, so are you a noble young lady?

oh me!? noo, no, no... I'm just a wandering girl.   

yeah..., that's right... haha

Oh my, you must be still having a hard time roaming this village, let me help you as I was once the village chief here before my retirement, let me ask my kind grandkid to do it.

Alejandro!!! come here!

He shouted.

You don't have to do that mister, I can handle myself.

No young lady this is just normal to welcome a new guest in our village.

he still insisted so I obeyed quietly.

I'm here grandpa!

A voice shouted behind my back so I turned around...

The wind was blowing softly and the boy's hair wavered and his eyes become wide open while staring at the most beautiful thing he had ever seen in his whole life, hair as dark as a night without its moon and red eyes as shining as rubies, there were numerous things he couldn't describe more but one thing is certain that the person he was seeing was the love of his life.
