Chapter 71.2
THAT MORNING we had a little farewell party, and chatted until nightfall.
We are currently sitting around a large fire, reliving all the memories, whether happy or sad. This was our last night in this place so we made the most out of it. I join in the conversation but oftenly, I just watch them. I will never get tired of doing this for a lifetime.
I will never forget these people. Wherever I go after tonight, I will bury all the memories with them, the family I built.
The others were chatting happily so I took this chance to leave without them noticing. I walked to the side of our fort, where no one could see me. I just sat on a large log and surveyed the trees around. Later on, I looked at the moon. It was not as bright as the other nights but it was still shining, looking gloomy as I was.
I do not know how I would feel at the thought that this would be the last night I would be with them. I am sad but calm because I know everything will improve after th

I HAVE no difficulty carrying a large sack of fruit to the market in Ohayas, the town where I currently live. I come from the orchard where I work, bringing fruits to the market. This is also the job I chose because of my power, the unique inherent strength.I forgot to put this one sack on the cart I brought this morning to the market so now I just picked it up, letting it sit on my shoulder. Of all the things I can forget, it was this biggest sack! I smirked angrily, staring at the road. I have not really forgotten it, I know everything I brought before is complete. Frida just put it lastly to torture me. She is the young daughter of the owner of the plantation where the sack came from and I do not know why her blood is boiling on me even though I have not done anything to her. I do not even pay attention to her sometimes because it is not necessary.

"Casias!" he said with a nervous tone of voice.I would have ignored that but I could feel the fear in his voice. It also caught my attention because Matias' name sounded like the name he mentioned.I slowly turned around to look there. Rowan scrambled out of the store to confront the one he called, the man who led the group. My forehead furrowed when I saw the man violently grab Rowan's clothes to bring it closer to him. The latter looked very scared."Did you think I did not know you had not paid your rent on this seat this month?!" he said in a very serious tone with his ever so deep voice. I can clearly hear and see everything because I am not far from them.Rowan's fear was further heightened by what the gentleman had said.

"ARE YOU underestimating me? Are you underestimating me?" Said Vivi repeatedly. He landed on the far side of the fruit basket while watching what I was doing."Vivi," I muttered. I turned to him and looked at him sharply. Sometimes this bird is really annoying. Could he not forget what the foolish Casias said earlier.When he stopped I looked at Rowan for a moment before continuing what I was doing, picking up fruits and utensils because of the mess that had happened earlier. I noticed that he seemed irritated by what the bird was saying.I sighed as I put the last piece of apple in its basket. Thankfully, it had not been too bruised from its fall earlier. His trembling hands grabbed my attention. Probably still scared to this day."A

THE NEXT day, I had only a small amount of fruit to take to the market, so I stopped using the cart. I let out a sigh of relief before effortlessly lifting the sack and placing it on my shoulder.“I heard you helped Rowan yesterday at the market when Casias harassed her,” Frida said next to me. She is the one who takes care and lists the number of fruits in the sack so she is now in the orchard.I turned to face her. I would never really pay attention to her but because she is talking to me, I have to answer her. Otherwise, she will be annoyed with me again and I may come back here for another sack of fruit."Yes, Frida," I answered sparingly.She raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms. "It is a good thing I ordered you to bring a sack of fruit there at that time. If not for me, Rowan would have been doomed," she said with an arrogant air in her voice. I just nodded in agreement.I also have no intention of opposing her because it will

HE QUICKLY grabbed my clothes by the shoulder and squeezed his face close to mine. I did not move, instead, I just stared blankly at him."That is all you did but if you brag about it like you can beat me now.""That is all?" I said with a sarcastic tone. I came closer to him to show that I was not intimidated, but rather challenged by him. "You underestimate what I did even though it left a mark on your face. Why? Did any other young lady do that to you besides me?" I grabbed his hand tightly and forbade him to take it away from me. "And yes, I can beat you even if we fight over and over again."I quickly kicked the dagger of one of his companions when it charged at me. It flew into the air. I caught him and I circled away from them. I turned to face Casias again, he stopped right at me when I threw the dagger at him.It cut a few strands of his hair before it sank into the tree just behind him. I smiled which made him stop even more."What can yo

INSTEAD OF going straight to my home, I made my way to the beach. It was far away from where I came from but I could not feel the distance I walked because I was talking to Vivi. He says anything and everything now, seems to be getting more comfortable in this town as well."The blue ocean! The blue ocean!" his lively tone echoed in my ear. Free as he flew in the wide sky, there were also different kinds of birds passing so I smiled watching Vivi who seemed to be chasing them.The strong wind blew my long hair and as I inhaled it, I could smell its salty breeze. I came even closer to the eternal looking ocean. It seemed to be a reflection of the sky, deep blue. I also took off my footwear so I could feel the fine and white sand on it more.I felt even more relieved at the sight. "I hope it is always like this," I whispered into the air. "No bitterness and sorrow."I sat in front of the clean ocean and surveyed the whole place. The waves were not very stro

I WAS stunned when I saw Casias again on the far side of the market, walking proudly with his two followers. It looks like the vendors here in the market will be paying the charged of the rent again.I am currently arranging the fruits in front of me. I am the one selling it now because Rowan is not here yet. Going for a walk with his lover. Yes, he now has a lover who is also a merchant here in the market. She had liked him for a long time but she was not noticed by him then because he suddenly turned his attention to me when he first met me.I still remember the first time we met, he was stunned by my beauty that almost had his saliva dripping. But now, he was dead set, in love with Mila. This young lady openly shows her liking for the man but he ignores her.And when Rowan realized that he really could not get my heart, he started to turn his attention to the young lady until he finally fell in love with her.Now that he always lets me keep an eye on h

IT WAS already dark when Rowan returned to the store. His wide smile was intacted in his face ever since he came back and it made me irritated for reasons I cannot name. When he paid me, I left immediately and let him close the store because I really could not stand his enthusiasm with things."Finally, we can go home too, Vivi," I said wearily. These past few days, I have always been tired because I have to keep an eye on the store. I am wondering. I used to work even harder in the past but I never got tired. I sighed. Maybe I was just not exercising enough. My body is no longer used to many activities, unlike before.But it seems even better for me that I feel tired because I can now sleep easily. Bad dreams hardly come to my sleep anymore so I feel more secure in the past few days. I do not know the reason for all of this but I am just thankful.Maybe it was really not because of exhaustion the reason why I am so assured. I do not know. I just do not want to
