growing up, e leaving the past behind

The next morning, while Churan was eating before going out to complete her research, Nano's voice interrupted her.

Nano came worried and said: "Miss, Miss, you should read this."

"Oh, can't I enjoy eating? I'm sure it's not urgent and can wait, right?"

"No, it can't wait. You have to read this first, then you can eat all you want"

"I'm really tired, dammit, just read this thing while im eating"

"This is an invitation from the royal palace to the princess' birthday party tomorrow. You must go, madam"

Churan was shocked by Nano's speech and suddenly swallowed the spicy food and choked on it. She almost died before seeing the wide world.

"Water, give me water quickly, help me, "cough so hard" I feel my guts coming out save me "

The servants shouted:" get a doctor, the lady is dying "

Eugene came to visit his sister but he almost died of laughter: "Sister, I can't believe you almost died after eating spicy food"

"The royal palace knows that I have recovered, although it has not been twenty-four hours yet, and you, my brother, who lives in the same house as me, have false information. Do you think that I can evade this party by saying that I am still sick and almost died?"

He said while laughing at her: "Are you going to say that you choked yourself with food because you did not want to go? Your name is in big, clear font on the invitation. The princess is really not popular because she is a troublemaker. Also, everyone in the capital is excited to know more about you. That must be the reason they invited you, because you'll make the party interesting. Don't you like parties? Don't you want to go and find friends?"

"No, I do not like crowded places, and also I am not good at establishing relationships with others, I just like being alone.. Why is being alone so difficult?"

"Why do you like being alone? Didn't you say you wanted to go out and meet more people?"

"I love to be alone because I will be alone and I will get used to it, I am used to it, but If i loved other people that I cannot guarantee that they will stay forever, then I will return alone with their memory, there is no point in loving someone who is already gone far from me"

After listening to her words, he tilted his body and sat beside her, he was silent for a while and then said: "I understand your words, I truly understand you, but in the end you will leave and love and befriend different people. Even if they are gone intentionally or unintentionally, you will cherish those memories and smile, or you will let them go with the wind, if you are left alone, you will never grow up, no matter how much you think you know enough, when you love and travel you will know that you spent the years of your life at the same point, then you become a forgotten painting. Like you said, there's no need to hold on to someone who's gone. If you're on your way and you can't find someone to accompany you, you'll learn, but if you hide away and don't come close to others, then you'll always be a heartless child, Churan. Let the past go away, be happy and grow up slowly".

Churan raised her head and looked at him and smiled, "Brother, it will be difficult and unbearable, but I will work really hard and grow up to be a kind person, no matter what others say."

Eugene put his hands on her head to play with her hair and smiled happily. "Yes, that's my cute little sister."

"Then I'll leave you and go buy a dress for the party"

"Do you want me to go with you?:

"No, it's okay. I wanted to go on my own anyway"

....

(Finally I managed to find a way out, it's good that they are rich so he won't complain about me going out to buy new clothes even though I already have a lot )

While she was walking, her gaze went to the important billboard, and she found an advertisement warning against going out at night because of the presence of a murderer who kills randomly.

(As I had already predicted, the people here are so hideous and scary, there is no peace, I wish I could go home)

on her way home After she bought a party dress and , she found some people wearing black masks covering their faces Even though they were dressed as normal as the other men in town. She followed them out of her curiosity and ended up in a forest.

She saw them walking towards a man dressed in white and looking elegant

(I heard that the rich people here do not go out alone without guards, especially since it is suspicious for them to go to this forest, so why did he come alone then?)

Suddenly, they took off their normal clothes and it turned out that they were wearing completely black clothes, and they started running towards him, pointing their weapons at him.

(I shouldn't get involved but why can't I take it easy and stay out of trouble, oh my god I'm definitely the cause of my torment)

Suddenly, she cut off a piece of her clothes, wrapped it around her face, and ran to stand in front of the man to save him. She pointed a sword at the killer's neck.

She Said:

"It is better for you to go back to where you came from, then I will save your lives"

Then she looked at the man behind her and said: "You go too"

"What do you think of me? How can I leave a woman alone and go?"

"Do you think I am a woman who needs protection? what nonsense"

The killer said, "Who are you, girl? It's better that you don't interfere so that you don't die." He laughed sarcastically.

She said in a loud voice, "I am his guard." Then she started to fight with them. She tried to hit who approached the man first without killing them.

(That's weird, isn't her body supposed to be sick! Then why do I feel like she's a professional, she's so much better than me, Who the hell is this woman?Who the hell are you, Churan?)

After a little time the men found they couldn't beat it so they ran the man pulled her and grabbed her hands and said, "Come on, we'd better leave now."

After they got out of the forest, he said:" Don't you not want to know why I entered the forest, or who am I?"

"I'm not really interested in you. I saved you because... because I don't know I just saved you." Then she turned and headed forward to leave, but he pulled her from her hands again and held her to be in front of him

"But I am interested". Then he pulled the mask from her face

She said angrily and annoyed, trying to cover her face: "I should have let you die, you bastard".

He laughed sarcastically and pushed her aside to go, then stopped and looked at her again and said in a serious tone, "I wouldn't have died even if you hadn't come."

Then he looked at her hands and looked a little surprised and then left, when she noticed Where was he looking she put her hands behind her As if she's hiding a secret

She said in a low voice: "We better not meet again"
