Please look up at first chapter, there was a problem, and I fixed it. Enjoy. Sorry for the late update.

Chapter 4; Lily

{My daily wish to die had come, huh?}

It was what I wanted.

{Kill with honor on the name of the Prince Izzben}

I don't want to live.

{W-who are you?}

But I am too scared to die.

{I am Lily Railda, Your Majesty}

My 18 years of living are pointless.

{Greetings to the glory of the empire, King Stephan}

Happiness didn't exist even once.

{Lily, I want to hear you call me grandma}

I can't protect who I loved. I lived

with regret.

{Finally, she died! After a week giving her poison, The wealth is all ours!}

If I have one more chance...

{What took you so long? Urgh, why would grandma adopted you in the first place?!}

I do not wish to repay those who

treat me unfairly.

{Let her go}

I wish to...

.........

I opened my eyes slowly. Was that a dream? If so, it was an extremely heavy dream. Tears were dropping down, I am shocked. 18 years, I rarely make an emotion. I looked at the room. This wasn't my room. No, not again.

I walked without saying anything and my mind doesn't want to think about my previous dream. My heart is beating fast. Please, not again.

I walk into the bathroom and when I looked at the mirror, I was shocked. This face.. is not mine. It is happening again. Why? My hands were shaking, my mind was blank.

I kept pinching my cheeks, wanted to test if this is still a dream.

"Who...am I?"

Bang! Bang! Boom boom boom!

Someone was knocking on the bathroom door real hard. I can't say for sure if he or she was knocking or kicking.

"Izzben!"

Izz..ben? Suddenly, the door was opened by force. Before I realized anything, time stopped. The mad guy didn't come forward, he was freezing right in front of me. What..?

..........

I opened my eyes. Tears were dropping. I had a dream. A very terrific one. In that dream, I died because a man with a mask killed me. It seemed so real. I remembered he said,

"Kill with honor on the name of the Prince Izzben,"

Was it..not a dream? Impossible. I wake up from my bed and went to the bathroom. I look at myself in the mirror. Why did the dream seem so real?

"Lily, I want to hear you call me grandma,"

I was shocked. The same sentence, the same time, and the same place.

"Grandma,"

My voice was cracked. Shocked is overpowering me. She doesn't seem surprised. Right. Because she is sick. She wasn't able to make an emotion before. Why didn't I realize the pain in her eyes? Why?

"I love you, grandma. Can I sleep here for the night, please?"

Grandma nodded. It is a 'green light' for me. I laid myself down on her bed. There was enough space for us.

Embarrassing. I am acting like a kid. I look at grandma which is right beside me. She is asleep. Slowly, my tears were dropping.

When I wake up... I look at grandma beside me. Her face is pale. I shake her body using both of my hands. As I thought. She is dead.

Thank you for being by my side. Grandma.
