Why Did I Become the Villainess? Chapter 195 - : Reunion

I just finished all my exams for the midterm, and my head hurts like hell. Maybe because I was up late last night.

Last night, Princess Paislee asked if we could talk, but I declined her. Saying I was too exhausted last night and all I want is to sleep. However, I didn't even get enough of sleep because I was overthinking what does she want to talk about.

I sigh. I knock on the door of the clinic. My head really hurts. I think I need a painkiller for this.

Leander opens the door for . He imdiately frowns when he sees . "Lady Csille? Why are you here? Is there sothing's wrong?"

I smile weakly at him and put my hand on my head. "My head has been hurting since this morning. Do you have any painkillers? I think I'm going to die with this headache."

Leander imdiately guides inside the clinic. He then let sit on one of the chairs. "How long have you been suffering from headaches?"

"Probably two days or three days already. I didn't get much sleep these days. Couple the fact that I was too stressed with my research."

Leander shakes his head. "I already told you the last ti that if you don't take care of yourself, it will have on toll on your body. Look at you. I'm sure that's because you're being too hard on yourself. You also need to rest, Lady Csille."

He then takes a pill from one of the bottles. "Here. Take this. It's a painkiller. It will help you with your headache. However, I suggest you change your sleeping habit and try not to stress yourself too much, or else you'll just end up having headaches again."

I take the pill from his head and imdiately swallow it. Leander then guides to rest in the clinic for a while.

"You already took all your exams, right? Why don't you rest here for a while and let your headache subsides before you leave? The painkiller will take a few minutes before it works. Rest on one of the beds first."

I lay on one of the bedd. My head is still hurting like hell, so I think it's better to take so rest first since I don't have any plan to do it afterward.

However, the rest turns into a nap. I wake up because of a loud familiar voice.

"Leander, I didn't think you're enjoying your life here. Unlike , I was always in a boring eting every day. Talking to those older n. I feel like I got ten years older because of them."

I slowly open my eyes and look around. The bed I am lying has a curtain that circling the bed. It's like those curtains in the hospitals where you just push it on one side to see the other side of the room.

My eyes widened when I realized who owned the familiar voice. It's Rufus! I imdiately push the curtain to the side.

Rufus probably heard the curtains when I pushed aside, he looked back, and his eyes widened when he saw . He then smiles at . "Purplany!" He rushes towards and hugs . "What are you doing here? Did sothing happen to you?"

I look at Rufus with teary eyes. Although I didn't really spend five years here. I still feel like I have missed him for five years. Probably because of the changes in his appearance. He looks more handso than before.

Leander, who is standing at the side, walks towards . "Lady Csille. Are you okay now? Or does your head still hurt?"

I shake my head at him as a response. I still glued my eyes at Rufus. He looks devilishly handso.

If Prince Fraser has the aura of a cold serious handso King. Rufus has the aura of a wild devilish knight.

Dayum, the male lead and the second male lead, looks so handso. Why is it like this? Can my heart survive?

Rufus chuckled, and he grinned at her. "Are you falling in love with now, purplany? I already told you. You're not my type."

Rufus' handso appearance shattered in an instant because of his words. I throw the pillow at him.

Five years have passed, and he is still the Rufus Astalieu that I know. Soone who always teases Csille.

I look at Leander. "I'm already okay now, Senior. Thank you for the painkiller that you gave . However, can I ask one again? So, even if I had another headache, I don't need to co to the clinic."

Leander shakes his head. "I apologize, Lady Csille. However, I cannot give you a painkiller. If I gave you one, I'm sure you'll continue to stay up late at night, and you'll just take a painkiller if you have another headache again. If you feel headache again, please just visit the clinic, and I will gladly help you."

I sigh. I understand his concern though. He is just worried I'll continue to be hard on myself.

"Eh? Purplany, do you always have a headache? Are you not properly taking care of yourself again?"

I look at Rufus and smile guiltily at him. He just shakes his head.

"You always do sothing that will harm you. Purplany, when will you start to take care of yourself?" He then looks at Leander. "Does she always visit the clinic?"

Leander looked at before he took sothing on one of the cabinets. It looks like a pile of papers. But what is it? He put the paper down on his table before he looked at Rufus.

"This is Lady Csille's records right from the mont she arrives here."

I look at the pile of paper and sigh. It's Csille's fault. She got too focused on changing herself that she forgot to take care of her health.

Rufus stares at . "And you told in your letters that you're taking care of yourself properly. Does this looks like proper to you?"

I just smile awkwardly at him. How can I answer that? It was the real Csille who did it. Why am I the one who always got scolded because of Csille's doing? This is just unfair.

Leander tried to calm Rufus by explaining to him what's the reason why Csille always ends up having a visit to the clinic.

Csille always does volunteering, and so of it was made outside the school. There are tis that Csille got hurt on her way to the place. She also sotis got sick because of the weather. It's the reason why she often visits the clinic.

Rufus sigh. "I'm actually here to invite you, Leander for lunch. It's been two years now since the last ti I saw you." He then stares at . "I am about to look for you too. It's a good thing you're here. So are the two of you free?"

I imdiately accept Rufus' invitation. It's my first ti seeing him five years older than the last ti I saw him.

Leander just called for a reliever, and the three of us set out to look for a restaurant. We decided to eat in one of the restaurants outside the school. Since only one restaurant offers Vrawyth food in the school.

"Rufus, what are you doing here? You already graduated, so there's no way you beco a part of the Exchange program. You also cannot be a scholar since you already have a job in the monarch, and I'm sure his majesty, the King, won't let you give up your position. So, why are you here?"

Rufus' existence in this ti and in this place is sothing that I don't understand. He is not supposed to be here. So, why is he here?

"I was the one who suggested the Student Exchange Program, and they assigned to facilitate this program. The reason why I am here is to see if this program will benefit both schools."

That made sense. So, it ans Rufus will be staying here in Alderrdeen for two weeks too? That's great news. At least I would have soone who's on my side.

The carriage stops in front of us. We were about to get into the carriage when soone spoke behind our back.

"Prince Rufus, Leander, Csille. Where are you going?"

We all look back and see Prince Fraser staring at us. Behind him is Princess Paislee.

We all got silent. Although Prince Fraser doesn't look like he is in a bad mood. His aura is suffocating. It's as if he is pressuring us to answer him.

"Prince Fraser. We were about to eat outside the Alderrdeen school. It's been a long ti since I have seen Leander and purplany. So, I ask them if they want to have a al with . And since all of us have free ti, we all decided to eat outside." Rufus explains in detail. He probably feels pressured with Prince Fraser's aura too.

Prince Fraser stares at Rufus for a couple of seconds before he stares at . I stare back at him. I tried to read his expression, but I couldn't see anything from his facade.

"Aren't you forgetting sothing?"

Oh, no. Will he prohibit us from going outside? But it's the first ti I have seen Rufus as his older self. Can he not ruin the fun?

Rufus got silent. He's probably thinking what I was thinking too. I sigh. "Your highness, please forgive for interrupting. However, can you please ntion what we have forgotten?"

Prince Fraser stares at . "You forget the invite us. Aren't I part of the Vrawyth Kingdom too? Why are you leaving us behind?"

Leander, Rufus, and I look at each other and sigh in relief. We all thought Prince Fraser would prohibit us from going out. At least it's better than staying here.

You can also say that this can be a little reunion for the five of us.

Rufus laughs. "No, no. I was just worried you're tired so I didn't invite you. Please get inside the carriage." He then gestured his hand towards the door of the carriage.

Prince Fraser gets inside the carriage. Followed by Princess Paislee. The three of us, Leander, Rufus, and I, look at each other before entering the carriage.

I sat beside the window, facing Princess Paislee. While Rufus sits beside and Leander sits beside him. Prince Fraser and Princess Paislee are sitting in front of us.

The carriage is only ant for four people, and since both Leander and Rufus are bigger guys. I was almost squeezed at the end.

"Csille."

I look at Prince Fraser. He raised his hand and offered it to . "You're being squeezed there. Co sit beside . There's still a space for one person here."

I look at his hand and his face. Am I hallucinating, or is Prince Fraser really asking to sit beside him?

I hesitatingly accepted his hand, and he pulled to sit beside him. Princess Paislee is sitting beside him while I sit on his other side.

What is this setup? The male lead is sitting beside the female lead and the Villainess? Isn't this weird?

The carriage moves, and silence engulfs the carriage. I tried my best to avoid looking at Prince Fraser.

I don't know how to react to our situation. I was expecting he would still be rude to , but he did the unexpected.

Also, there's sothing that I don't understand here. First, why did the few days visit beco two weeks visit? Second, why is Rufus with them? He should be in Vrawyth busying himself with his monarch duties. Third, why is this little reunion happening?

I haven't written all of these. So why? And why does Prince Fraser seems nice again to ? Is this the calm before the storm? Will he get mad at after this? Should I prepare myself now?

I sigh and look outside the window.

I already have a lot of problems with my research and school works. And then this added?

I just want to have a fun al with my friends. Can't I just have it? Why does Prince Fraser need to pop out of nowhere? He even brings his female lead with him. How am I supposed to act and behave now?

Like, co on, give a break!
