It was late when I realized that he had a fever, if I hadn't noticed earlier that he was hot, I wouldn't have known that he was sick, I don't know what to do. I don't know how to take care of a sick person, what I used to care about as a demon was to give sickness, so I don't know how to take care of him now that he is sick.
I want to go out and tell the old man that Pavel has a fever, the case is that they locked the door so I can't leave this room, old man.
"Pavel.. Pavel wake up and treat yourself." I said while waking him up, I closed my eyes and calmed myself down, my patience is short when it comes to nursing.
"Ksara, calm yourself down, it's normal for people to get sick." I said to myself then got up from my seat and went around Pavel's room to find a cure for his fever, I saw a towel in Pavel's clothes so I took it then went to his small table and put warm water in a small basin then I put the towel.
That's how I see people treat a person's fever.
When I put the small basin on the table next to Pavel's bed, I gasped and scratched my head.
"How do I begin this?' I asked irritably then sat next to Pavel.
I stared at Pavel for a few minutes, who was still unconscious.
"Reprimand, you neglect yourself too much." I whispered then started wringing the bimpo that I put in the warm water and then slowly rubbed it on his head. While I was doing that, my heart was racing, I didn't know what was happening to me, every time my skin touched his skin, there were images in my mind that happened in our past.
"Close." I stopped wiping his forehead when he mentioned my name again, I smiled and remembered the past where I didn't want him to mention my name because it irritated me.
"Your name is Ksara, my name is Pavel. Nice to meet you." He said with a smile, I just watched him until he came to me again causing me to be surprised.
"Good morning Ksara, let's eat together." He said that's why I was tormented.
"You can call me unique." I said so he looked at me again.
"Why? Don't you want me to call you Ksara?" he asked.
"I don't want and I forbid you to call me by my name." I said so he laughed.
"Your name is beautiful and you don't want--"
"When I say I don't want to, I don't want to." I said coldly so he was stunned and pouted then sat in a chair facing the table full of food.
"Okay, I won't call you by your name anymore." He said then pointed to the seat in front of him.
"Ksara, what will you bring?" I glared at Pavel when he mentioned my name, he just smiled and scratched his head.
"I'm sorry, it's only as good as saying your name." He said that's why I was tormented.
I continued to wipe her again until the next thing I wiped was her hands, my eyes fell on the purse she was wearing, I smiled and took out my purse from my pocket.
I remembered again how he had given it to me.
"Yuniko look at this." He faced me and suddenly held my hand causing me to see some images again, I was surprised when he put a purse on me.
I frowned as I looked at him with a smile and looked at the black purse that he put on my left hand, it had a heart-shaped blue color in the middle, it was small and alone.
"It's beautiful, look at it too." he said and raised his right hand, it was the same as the purse he wore on me.
The wrinkles on my forehead slowly disappeared, he smiled and looked at me.
"That, that's a symbol of our friendship." he said then let go of my hand.
I looked at the purse. Symbol?
"From now on, I won't just treat you like a stranger, I'll be a friend." he said with a smile so I looked up at his smiling face.
I was stunned by what he said, I just looked at him, my brain couldn't process what he said. He went back to shopping the things in front of him.
"From now on, I won't just treat you like a unique person, I'll treat you like a friend." friend
I kept my gaze on Pavel's back who was happily looking at the decorations. This is the first time someone gave me something small and simple.
I looked at the purse he gave me. And this was also the first time someone told me I was a friend.
I looked back at that person again. Why are you like that? why do you behave like that? I am not happy because you are too kind and too generous. I'm not happy because you're only making my mission more difficult.
This person….
I bent down and took a deep breath.
.. there is something about him that I can't figure out what.
"Yuniko, come on." He said worried so I looked at him who was looking at the saleswoman.
I approached him.
"I'm sorry." I heard what Pavel said so I looked at the girl in front of us who looked angry.
"You man, the ones here are not free. Everything is paid for, do you understand? You opened my goods right away and you haven't paid yet." said the woman so I looked at Pavel who was bowing.
I frowned.
Why does he let this girl do that to him? He is the prince so he should be angry because he is not respected by the person he is in front of.
I was saddened, I forgot that half of his face was covered so that he could not be recognized.
I looked at the woman who was obviously angry.
"Yuniko, do you have gold? I didn't know that there was a fee for the goods here." he said then pointed to my purse and his purse.
"Two small pieces of gold are equal to these two, and this one too." he said then showed the ones he took. I'm so tired.
"Why did you take this thing when you didn't have any gold?" I asked, he just laughed and shrugged his shoulders.
"I didn't expect that I would fall in love with someone here." he said with a pout.
"Lend me some gold first, I'll return it to you later." he said. I grinned inside.
I have a good plan.
I looked at the woman.
"I'm just going to talk to him." I said then put my arm around Pavel and turned my back on the woman.
"Listen." I said then stuck to him.
"I don't have gold with me either." I whispered so he was surprised and looked at me.
"Well, how is that?" he asked. I smiled at him.
"I thought of something." I said then came closer to him.
"When the woman is no longer looking at us, we will leave with the things you took." I said so she stopped and looked at me.
"That's bad." he said so I was tormented.
"Yes, I know, but you don't have any gold, right? There are many people here who can take your purchases if we leave them." I said, making her frown even more.
"But it's still bad, Yuniko." he said then walked away from me.
He took a deep breath and looked at his hands.
"They are beautiful, but it is wrong for us to take them without paying." He said it made my blood boil.
"Thank you." Suddenly he said that made me stop. I slowly looked at him. He looked at me while smiling.
"Thank you for bringing me to this place, this is a night I will never forget." He said with a smile, my eyes widened as he suddenly came to me and hugged me.
I closed my eyes because of the images that suddenly appeared in my mind. I swallowed and immediately pushed Pavel away from me. He looked at me in shock so his eyes narrowed.
"I told you not to touch me." I said so he laughed and put his hand on his head.
"Sorry, I can't help it, because this is the first time someone brought me here." he said and looked at the scene again.
I kept staring at him.
I can't rest anymore, I'm confused. What are these things I see every time he touches me or our skins touch?
What are those images? I feel real but how did that happen?
I took a deep breath, I don't have to find out what those images are, my only goal here is to make it bad to finish my mission.
"By the way, what time are we going home?" He asked and looked at me.
"It's your choice." I said then felt my back and took the bag I had been carrying earlier.
"Oh." I then gave him the bag, which he immediately caught.
"What is this?" He asked, making me cringe.
"Open what you know." I then lie down on the floor and close my eyes.
Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet so I frowned and opened my eyes and then looked at Pavel, his eyes were wrinkled while looking at the contents of the bag. He looked at me.
"How did you get it?" He asked while looking at me, I laughed.
"I stole it." I answered that his eyes widened, I laughed out loud then sat down.
"Of course I bought it." I said so his frown slowly disappeared and he smiled.
"But you said you didn't have any gold with you?" He asked and took the contents of the bag, I grinned.
"I'm still going to lose." I said looking ahead.
"And this bracelet? It's unique! How much gold did you spend? I'll pay you back in the palace." He said that's why I looked at him.
"Don't worry, I don't know anything about gold." I said grinning. Something came to my mind suddenly.
I watched him take out the things he had taken he already had the bag full, the smile on my lips disappeared when I saw that he was holding the same bracelet as me, he looked at my hand and smiled.
"I thought you brought it back." He said and looked at me, I winced.
"Once it's given to me, it can't be taken back." I said and looked at him with a smile. I watched him put the bracelet on his hand, he looked at me and showed his hand where the bracelet was worn.
"There, I'm wearing the symbol of our friendship again." He said then put the things he took out inside the bag, I watched him until he finished putting them inside the bag, he suddenly looked at me then smiled.
Until now... you're still wearing it.
~~~The End~~
