"Father I'm here" Aderi announced, her father took off his reading glasses before slamming the table as he stood up.

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?" Aderi's father asked with frustration.

"Do what exactly, father?" Aderi asked in a calm voice even if she knows why she is called here.

"YOU!-- FIRST YOU KILLED MY WIFE AND NOW YOU'RE PLANNING ON KILLING MY SECOND WIFE TOO!?" He asked yelling at Aderi. Aderi's eyebrows frowned.

"Me? Kill your second wife? Don't be a ridiculous father!" Aderi answered offended at what her father just said.

"Just what did that woman tell Aderi's father?" Aria asked herself as she tried keeping her cool, if not she would have kicked Aderi's father by now, but she doesn't want to be in any more trouble, so she calmed down.

"She said you attempted on pushing her down the stairs! Do you still deny it!?" Aderi's father asked, Aderi let out a disappointed giggle.

"Father...do you seriously believe woman over your r?" Aderi asked glaring at Aderi's father.

"OF COURSE! YOU KILLED MY FIRST WIFE! NOT TO MENTION YOUR MOTHER!" Aderi's father shouted as he hit the table with his fist again.

"FATHER! DO YOU SERIOUSLY STILL BLAME ME FOR THAT!? DID I ASK TO BE BORN?! IT WAS BOTH OF YOUR FAULT THAT I'M HERE IN THIS WORLD!" Aderi yelled back, her father was taken back for a second before he grinned his teeth in frustration.

"AND NOW YOU'RE YELLING BACK AT ME?!" Her father asked, Aderi couldn't hold back her anger anymore.

Aria who was inside Aderi's body that was holding back her anger finally blew.

"FATHER! CHILDBIRTH IS NOT SOMETHING A CHILD CAN REFUSE! I'M NOT THE REASON WHY I'M BORN! DEATH IS ALSO SOMETHING ANY HUMAN CAN'T AVOID! I'M NOT THE REASON MY MOTHER DIED, BUT YOU!" Aderi yelled, her father walked up to her before slapping her.

"How dare you accuse me of killing my wife!" Her father asked frustrated, Aderi was holding her cheeks that got slapped.

"It's your fault, and do you think my mother, your wife would approve of you hurting the child she died for? The child that symbolizes both of your love?" Aderi asked with a tear leaving her eye, her father was speechless like something interrupted his emotions.

"Excuse me...I have to go now, this conversation is over, your grace" Aderi said as she bowed before leaving the door.

"What the heck Aria! Why are you crying, yes the impact hurts but, it's like Aderi's own feelings were mixed in" she thought to herself as she was wiping the tears falling.

----

Aria can feel her heart aching even though her feelings aren't affected by that event. But the real owner of this body is the one affected by that event. But isn't this Aria's body now?

She walked back to her room locking the door behind her, the room was dark and Aderi had no intention of turning the lights on.

She just went and run to the bed hugging a pillow.

"I'm surprised you're not crying that bad" she heard a voice coming from the balcony. She quickly sat up and looked at the balcony. A boy was standing there leaning on the open door of the balcony.

"Y-you! What are you doing here? This is trespassing!" Aderi said pointing at the boy.

"Hey don't be like that! I saw what happened, so did you buy the dagger to kill your father and his wife?" The boy asked, the boy was the same as the one Aderi met in the market earlier in the day.

"Did you follow me!?" Aderi asked the boy.

"And to answer your question, no!" Aderi replied to the boy's question earlier.

"Yes, I followed you" the boy answered as he pushed himself off the wall and walked inside the room.

"THAT'S STALKING AND TRESPASSING!" Aderi remarked shocked at how the boy invited himself inside Aderi's room without her permission, before she knew it the boy was already sitting on the edge of her bed next to her.

"I can't believe your father would slap you," the boy said as he followed it with a sigh, Aderi scoffed.

"I mean, look at you, you look small and frail, and not to mention a girl, being hit by an old man would damage your little body especially since you're a girl," the boy said looking at Aderi examining her before looking away.

"Your father is something else for hurting a small and frail girl like you" the boy added to his opinion, Aderi scoffed.

"Can that person still be called a father?" Aderi asked lifting one of her eyebrows.

"No" the boy answered firmly, Aderi nodded agreeing.

"That bastard thinks he can do anything!" Aderi said frustrated as she clenched her fist.

"Not to mention blaming his daughter for his wife's death that is unavoidable" the boy replied also frustrated, Aderi clapped her hand once in excitement.

"So you do get my feelings!" Aderi said to the boy as her eyes lit up.

"Man you're weird!" The boy said frowning as he stood up, Aderi's jaw dropped at the boy's remark.

"SAYS THE ONE WHO TRESPASSED AND STALKED ME!" Aderi replied, the boy's jaw then dropped.

"Hey! I just followed you to see where will you use the dagger!" The boy said with a frown.

"I told you I won't use it to kill someone!" Aderi said as she looked at the boy with a frustrated look.

"Yeah, yeah! I'm off" the boy said as he walked to the balcony.

"Don't come back!" Aderi said, the boy looked back and smirked.

"Will do, thank you for the invitation," the boy said as he smiled innocently before he jumped off the balcony.

"H-hey! I said don't come back not to come back!" Aderi yelled, but the boy was already gone.

"What's wrong with that boy!? But-- my frustration from my father is gone" Aderi talked to herself as she looked at the open door of the balcony where the boy came and left.

"Ah forget it!" Aderi said as she lay down and closed her eyes as she attempt to fall asleep.

The next day she was woken up by commotion from outside her door, she rubbed her eyes and looked at her clothes.

"Ah, I forgot to change my clothes yesterday," Aderi said after noticing her clothes, she stood up and walked to the door.

She leaned on the door, pressing her ears on the door trying to hear what the people are saying from the other side.

"We cannot follow your orders, we work for the lacita's!" I heard one of the maids arguing with someone.

Aderi then opened the door, and she saw a bunch of maids and butlers along with her father.

"What is going on?" Aderi asked tilting her head.

"You! Stay in there, that will be your punishment, you'll stay there without food or water for 3 days!" Her father said to Aderi. Aderi frowned.

"You cannot do that, your grace! You cannot imprison me! I'm your daughter " Aderi said protesting, her father scoffed.

"My house, my rules! And I also don't have a daughter that is a murderer" her father replied, Aderi frowned.

"Fine then! And also I don't have a mindless father" Aderi said as she shut the door behind her, she locked the door quickly. She then heard a bang from outside.

"You brat! Open the door!" Her father said banging on the door, Aderi rolled her eyes and walked away from the door.

"No food or water for 3 days, heh- sounds like a challenge to me this would be easy, my body is trained for this," Aderi said crossing her arms as she sat down on her bed.

"I could sneak out using the balcony, but in the novel, Aderi tried that but there were guards below her balcony," Aderi said as she was thinking about her plan to escape.

"This man isn't a father at all! You call this a father?! Don't make me laugh" Aderi said scoffing as the banging from the door finally stopped, Aderi rolled her eyes again.

She walked to her closet and picked out a long sleeve, teal sleepwear to change into.

"Whatever I'll go back to sleep again to kill time," Aderi said to herself as she threw herself on the bed. Soon she fell asleep.
