I gasped from the pain and doubled over, clutching my chest. The water from the tub sloshed like waves from my sudden movent. I heard my maids utter sothing but I was so deep in my own painful world that I didn't get to understand it.
There was another squeeze, as painful as the first and as uncomfortable as it was either. My vision suddenly started getting white and dark spots were appearing at the sides.
'Oh my goodness, am I dying?'
"Milady?" Soone called but I don't know who it was.
My knuckles were turning white as I grasped the rim of the tub as tightly as I could as if I'm borrowing strength from it. Afterward, I forgot what happened because I suddenly felt really drowsy and fell asleep just like that. It's also possible that I fainted but I have no recollection of it if it was really the case.
The next morning, I woke up with a hamr smashing my head repeatedly.. My head hurts like a bitch and I wasn't even exaggerating! There really is like a hamr bonking my head as hard as they could, you know!
Is this a hangover? Goodness !
It's not just my head but my body aches as well. I felt heavy like I ran a marathon when I clearly didn't. I groggily sat up, all the while groaning from the torture it gave , and then regretted it almost imdiately. My headache suddenly wanted to be more aggressive now that I wanted to leave the bed and started whacking with not just a hamr this ti, but with a mace.
"Fffffuuuuuu---" I groaned out, clutching my head.
I wanted to curse all the colorful words that I could think of but let's not do that. If only I could bash my head so this pain would go away, I definitely will…
Is this really a hangover? Just from wine? Seriously?
I didn't sign up for this!
'Well, maybe if you weren't such a drunkard and swam on wine all night, this might have not happened!'
Ughh. This is the last ti I will drink that much, I swear!
"Milady? Are you feeling well?" Was that Mari or Erin? I don't know, I'm too groggy to tell.
Instead of answering, I just let out an inhuman sound. The kind that you will hear from wounded animals perhaps. I couldn't even open my mouth to ask for relief. How pathetic...
I felt sothing furry nuzzle my side, it even climbed on my back, sniffing . That's obviously Kuro who's being affectionate early in the morning, as always. I want to cuddle him but man, my limb felt like molten lead and my head still hurts. Even just from a slight movent, my world would start spinning crazily.
I felt soone went to my side, wheeling a cart, "I brought your dicine for headaches, milady. Master Nathaniel sent this for you," was what they said.
"Oh, really? Thanks, I needed it," I grumbled, all the while grimacing from the dull ache in my throat. I sounded hoarse as if I spent the whole yesternight in screaming the heck out of it.
Honestly, what the hell happened to ?
The maid, which was Erin apparently, helped consu the dicine. I downed the bitter fluid in one swig, cringing from the taste. Afterward, I gulped the whole glass of water down to chase away the bitterness and sighed.
My eyes were still closed, just waiting for the pain to dull away. Kuro purred and settled on my lap. He was so heavy that I felt like my legs would get numb. You guys already know how big he was and as much as I like the feel of his fur, it's really not favorable to have a giant sitting on you.
"We got worried when you suddenly fell asleep while bathing, milady. I'm glad that you are fine," Erin sincerely uttered.
'Oh, I fell asleep on the tub? Hmmm… I don't rember that.'
The pain on my head then gradually settled down until it's only a dull ache now. Slightly uncomfortable yes, but much better than earlier, at least.
I opened my eyes, blinking away the dazedness and squinting from how bright the room was. It's actually not morning anymore, probably a quarter before 12?
I then glanced at Erin at my side who was preparing the food for . It wasn't the usual breakfast set now because I already skipped that, but a proper al instead. She set it on the table that could be set on the bed in quick successions and straightened her body afterward when she finished.
I thanked her for the second ti. I also just realized how hungry I really was after seeing the food in front of . My stomach even agreed and made an approving sound. If there were other people around, I must have felt shy from the rumble but it's fine. Erin and I are the only ones here, I could be shaless as much as I want.
"Ah, and sir Kai said you left this in the carriage," she suddenly exclaid.
She handed an envelope, a very familiar envelope.
I blinked at it, "Ohh…"
I then took it from her and stared. It was the envelope that Lukas personally gave last night. Just then, a certain mory of that certain soone resurfaced. My face felt hot at once. It was an instant blush, I tell you. It wasn't just that but after rembering what happened by then, my face scrunched together.
'That breezy man!'
I tried to chase away that mory and shove it all the way to the back of my mind. I also wished that it won't get to see the light of the day either and would completely vanish in ti. It's not really a fond mory to begin with.
If my brother learned that a man touched so carelessly, I bet that he would turn the whole of Rosenthal to hunt that man's ass down.
Wait. Did he and father get back last night as well? They didn't co ho with us and ordered the secret guards to bring us back without them. I was going to wait for them but I apparently fell asleep.
"Hmm…"
I put the spoon inside my mouth as I thought the events from the ball over. For the life of though, no matter how much I tried to think, nothing ca over.
Why can't I rember?
