He raised his sword ready to slice the Siren, however before he could bring his sword down.
"Kayden?" The sweet voice of Malaya rang. "What is happening right now? What are you going to do with him?"
His sword was so close to Arnes' neck. If Malaya was a second late to arrive, Arnes would have been a corpse right now.
"Kayden, what are you doing to him?!" Malaya ran towards Arnes and blocked him from Kayden.
Seeing this, Kayden's brows furrowed. "He is the one who makes your mories disappear," he said in a cold voice. He raised his hands towards Arnes. Seeing this, Malaya beca more afraid that he would kill soone. However, she wasn't able to do anything when Arnes was suddenly covered with dark flas and he vanished into thin air.
Malaya was completely terrified. But before she could completely speak, Kayden beat her to it. "I have transferred him to another place."
But Malaya's clear light aquamarine eyes held doubt. Kayden simply flicked his right fingers and an orb of dark flas appeared between them. From that orb of dark fla, Arnes' struggling self was shown. He looked like he was in so cave.
Malaya felt relieved seeing that the unknown man to him was doing fine. However, Kayden felt irked seeing her reaction like this. Simply went out of the room, and headed to the kitchen to prepare their lunch. 'So this is what she is like without her mory.'
'I should consult with that Saintess if there is a way to bring back her mory after we have a al together.'
Malaya simply watched him leave. 'He seems angry,' she clutched both her hands, 'did I do sothing bad? Or perhaps that man from before is really an enemy.' She clutched her head to try to rember sothing, but nothing really ca.
'I hate this. I feel like I'm so useless right now.' She could only clench her fist and sighed in the end. 'But moping like this, will not let solve anything. I can try asking Kayden more about , it might help rember sothing.' Malaya stood up and headed to the door, but before she could hold the handle of the door she paused when she rembered Kayden's cold expression.
'But he seems angry to right now. I should let him cool down for a bit.' Malaya sighed once again. And instead of deciding to follow after him, she decided to observe the place she was staying in right now.
As Malaya went out to the storage room, there was nothing much furniture inside the house, though it was divided into two floors. The second floor was where the bedroom was located and there were other two rooms. The first floor was divided into four more rooms, the bathroom, which she had seen earlier before entering the storage room. Then the storage room, the kitchen, and a living room.
Seeing that there was nothing to see inside the house, Malaya decided to go out. Going out, it seed they were in the middle of so forest. Malaya continued to walk and saw barrels of water in the further right corner of the house outside. She looked at her reflection.
Hair that was like the ocean, and eyes that were clear as the light aquamarine. It was strange how she knew exactly where to compare her features despite having to lose her mory.
'It might be that only the important things are what I forget. The things that make who I am.' Malaya leaned on the barrel and saw her reflection. Her frustrated face. 'Damn why can't I rember a single thing about myself and all the people surrounding ! Kayden said that the man was the cause why I forgot everything. What did I do to make myself like this?'
Malaya scooped the water in her hands and used it to rinse her face. She took a deep breath to calm herself. She kept rinsing her face a few more tis to cool down herself.
"Hah!" She glanced at the sky that was covered with tall trees. She raised her right hand capturing the sunlight that passed through the gaps of the trees. "It will be alright,'
'I am thankful that I have soone I know when I wake up. Or else, it would be much worse for .'
'I should continue to observe this place further.' Malaya decided to walk a little further to the forest. She didn't forget to put marks on the trees she passed through so that she wouldn't get lost.
She smiled wryly. 'It's so funny how I am so used to these things.' She continued to walk further until she stopped in her tracks. Ahead of her, there was clearing. She continued to walk towards it. And she was completely in awe at what she spotted.
It was a field of different colors of flowers. There were plenty of beautiful butterflies flying around. And further ahead was a clear and sparkling pond.
{"Malaya,"
Her eyes widened as she turned to her left side. Red ruby eyes stared at her with seriousness. "Can I call you by your na as well? That is my request."
Malaya smiled more naturally this ti which made Kayden a bit surprised. There was a strange tingling sensation inside him.
"Of course, the truth is I'm happy that you finally call my na now, Kayden," Malaya said. "And now that I think of it, you really don't need to ask for permission since I have been calling your na casually as always."}
Malaya's eyes widened when sothing passed to her mind. She clutched her head when it had a throbbing sensation. 'What was that? Is that one of my forgotten past?' Her heart was beating fast as well. 'That's right,' She glanced at the beautiful flower field. I have seen sothing like this, and I was with Kayden that ti.'
The wind blew and her hair flickered. The petals flew in her direction as her eyes were fixated on the flower field.
This was what Kayden spotted as soon as he found Malaya. He was completely shocked when Malaya was not around the house, so he went outside to look for her. Fortunately for him, Malaya left marks on the way she passed so he found him easily.
His eyes didn't leave Malaya's figure. Right now, she was like a fairy amidst the flower fields. And he won't ever get tired of such scenery.
Malaya felt soone was staring at her. When she turned around, she was completely startled when Kayden was behind her.
"Kayden? You're here!" She stepped further away. However, due to being too startled, she failed to see the lump of stones behind her. She lost her balance.
"Ah!" she closed her eyes for the impact of her fall.
However monts later nothing happened, when she opened her eyes, Kayden's handso face was so close to her. She could feel once again his breath closer to her. She felt blood rush through her cheeks. And imdiately pushed Kayden, and steadied herself.
"Ah, thank you for saving !" She said as she turned her back to him. Her heart was beating so fast. And she kept hitting her chest to calm herself. She rembered how close their faces were earlier, and she could feel that her face was going to explode due to that.
She slapped both her cheeks. 'Calm down, Malaya.'
However, before she could completely calm down, she was once again startled. When Kayden suddenly hugged her from behind. She was frozen in place and didn't know what to do.
'What?'
'What's happening?'
Her mind started malfunctioning now.
"We were also in the field of flowers when you allowed to call you by your na." Kayden suddenly spoke. "That is one of the happiest days of my life."
The wind blew even more. And a lot of flower petals flickered in the air. The colorful butterflies started flying away. It was surely a beautiful sight to anyone. But Malaya couldn't concentrate on such beautiful scenes at all. She could feel her heart would burst out from her chest anyti soon.
However, Kayden was not yet finished talking. "You keep disappearing whenever I don't look around. What should I do, to make you stay in one place?"
"Umm-Kayden..."
"Are-are you alright?" Malaya wanted to facepalm. The first thing that she could say was sothing like that. However, Kayden's answer flustered her even more.
"You said to before, that communication is very important. Tell , Malaya, if I ask you just to stay by my side, will you stay?"
"..."
Kayden smiled wryly when Malaya remained silent. 'What did I expect, knowing that she lost her mory, of course, she couldn't give an answer right now. I'm really worried about taking advantage of her like this.'
That was when Kayden was released from the hug. He wanted to stay longer like that, however, this was enough for now.
"Let's go back now, I have prepared a al for you." Kayden turned around readying to leave. However before he could take a step, Malaya grabbed his left hand, to stop him.
"When," Malaya was stuttering, however, she persevered to say her words.. "When my mories return, I'll give you my answer."
