Pace Island, February 1500.
Late at night at the residence of Captain Hades. The waiter was busy preparing dinner.
Madam Joy passed by carrying a few flower stalks in her hand and Chris followed her like a duck.
Richi comes out of his room, he looks good and plans to meet Sofia.
He looked towards the desolate-looking Rose Pavilion, then walked over. When he got there he became nervous and confused about what to say.
He had already composed the words he was going to say in the room. Even practicing saying it while taking a shower.
"Damn..!" Aspersion.
Richi became frustrated, finally he walked back and forth in front of Sofia's room door.
Elie who had since heard the sound of footsteps did not stop being curious and went out of the room to look.
THE CLACK!
The door opened, Richi covered her face with both hands.
As usual Richi looks very handsome despite being confused. This afternoon he wore a shirt with two open top buttons in white with some green and red stripes on his chest. Black material pants complement his appearance.
"Mr Richi?" Elie walked over, She observed Richi from the end of the hair to the end of the head.
'It's very handsome..' He murmured in his heart.
"Well.."
"What are you doing here?" Elie started the conversation politely.
"Nothing.." Richi rubbed his head.
"Do you happen to want to see Miss Sofia?"
"No." Richie replied quickly.
"Really?"
"Yes, I don't really care." Richi tries to look disinterested, but his behavior is the opposite of what he says. He tried to look into the room through the open door.
"Master wants to see Miss?"
"Yes.."
"Ah no.." Richi rubbed his hair again.
"Miss just finished the shower.."
"Now lying in bed."
"Has He eaten?"
"Not yet.."
"Chris hasn't come to pick me up yet.."
"Well.."
"Can you persuade Sofia to come to my room tonight?"
"I'm sorry? Your room, Mister?"
"Yes.."
"Is there a problem with that?"
"Pardon my presumption, Sir.."
"Do you want to talk about something?"
"It's none of your business." Richi replied coldly.
"Ah forgive me.."
"Do you think he won't?"
"M..."
"Maybe it's better if you ask for it yourself.." Elie answered nervously.
"He's always upset to see me.." Richie answered desperately.
"Minister's mood is good, sir.."
"Maybe you can come in now.." Elie tried to smile.
"Really?"
Elie nodded her head. He opens the door and lets Richi in.
Richi walks inside and Elie closes the door from the outside.
THE CLACK!
Sofia is lying on the bed, glancing at the entrance and surprised to see Richi.
"You.." Sofia reflexively pulls the blanket. He currently only wears a camisole because he has just finished bathing.
"Yes.." Richi walked over towards Sofia.
Her heart pounded fiercely looking at Sofia who was lying down and was only wearing thin sleepwear so as to reveal her curves.
'Elie..' Richi in the heart.
"How's your wound?" Richi looked at Sofia gently.
"What do you want?!" Sofia has no power to look at Richi in front of her.
Richie was at a loss for words. She rubbed her hair back.
Actually Sofia's heart is pounding. He was surprised to see Richi in the Rose Pavilion, He had not even tidied his still wet hair because it had only been shampooed after a long time and was now wearing only this thin nightgown.
'Oh, my God, Elie, why did you let him in? You want to embarrass me?'
"I'm sorry.."
"Are you disturbed?"
There was no response from Sofia. Richi doesn't want to upset her any more. He realizes that the arrival was not expected by Sofia.
"All right.."
"I'll go now.." Said Richi while turning her body towards the door.
But Sofia's hand quickly grabbed the end of her shirt.
Richi feels Dejavu, she remembers Sofia once did the same thing. So did Sofia, she recalled the incident on the Hades Ship.
He quickly pulled his hand back.
"Well.."
"Sorry.." Sofia Murmured. He covered his red face with both hands.
'Stupid hand.' Sofia in my heart.
Richi's heart was pounding again, at first glance he could see a red tinge on Sofia's cheek. But Richi does not want to feel happy first. Now he's confused what to do.
Richi's not leaving, he's sitting on the bed. Richi pulls Sofia's hand from her face.
"Don't close it.."
"I want to see you.." Richi said in Sofia's ear.
Sofia's getting nervous. Right now even her ears are turning red because Richi is too close to her.
Sofia pushes Richi's body away, but Richi holds her back and pulls Sofia into her arms.
"Detach.." Sofia is still trying to push.
"Just a moment.."
"Please.." Richie asked softly.
Slowly Sofia gives up and she lets Richi hug her.
Sofia's heart skips around, she doesn't want Richi to find out.
Richi let go of his embrace reluctantly. She looked at Sofia's face, stroked her wet hair and kissed the tip.
"I'm sorry.." Richi softly said.
Sofia shuts her mouth, she doesn't expect Richi to apologize to her.
"Why are you apologizing?" Sofia looks into Richi's eyes.
"I'm.."
"I'm guilty of you.."
"What's your fault?" Sofia clenched both her hands.
"About Gerald.."
"I'm guilty..." Richi lowered his head.
Sofia's chest hurts to hear Richi pronounce the name******* that.
"Why did you do it to me?!!"
"Why?!"
"Why not?!" Sofia is upset to hear Richi's answer which does not make her satisfied.
"I can't say yet.."
"Yet? can't yet?"
"Yes..."
"Are you going to tell me later.."
"I'll say it later.." Richie replied sadly.
"Later? how is it different from now?!"
"Because..."
Richi can't tell me why now.
"Because what?" Sofia hits Richi's chest a few times.
Richi doesn't stay away and takes the hit, he feels he deserves it.
"All right.."
"If that's all you want to say.."
"Come out.." Sofia pointed towards the closed door.
Richie doesn't want to go like this. He wants his relationship with Sofia to improve. He was confused as to what to say. Richi just fell silent and lowered his head.
"I'm sorry.."
"I don't know what you're saying, you better go." Sofia turned her face in the opposite direction.
"I'm sorry.."
"I'm sorry, Sofia.."
"Enough!" Sofia looks at Richi's face in anger.
"Gerald killed both my parents." Richi muttered slowly.
DEG
DEG
DEG
Sofia's eyes widened to hear Richi's words. The pain began to disturb him. His heart was beating very fast. He had not expected to hear such a painful thing like this.
His heart began to hurt and his chest felt tight. He put his hand on his chest and hit him several times.
DUK!
DUK!
DUK!
Richi is surprised to see Sofia's behavior. He touched his chest gently.
"Is it painful?"
"Which part of it hurts?"
"Tell me?" Richi's face looks anxious.
Sofia just shook her head.
"No.."
"Not sick?"
Sofia nodded her head.
"Thank God.." Richi smiled with relief.
Sofia could not hold it anymore, the tears that she had been enduring had melted and fallen from her eyes.
UHK..
"illness?"
"Which part?" Richi turns frantic looking at Sofia who is crying.
Sofia did not reply and simply shook her head.
"Don't lie!" Richi wiped Sofia's tears.
"No.."
"I'm fine.." Sofia covered her nose that was starting to water.
Richi takes a handkerchief from her pants pocket and rubs Sofia's nose gently.
"I'm sorry.."
"I'm sorry, Sofi.." Richi continues to apologize while draining Sofia's still-flowing tears.
"No.."
"No.."
"Don't apologize.." Sofia rubbed her tears that kept coming out.
"Please.."
"Don't cry.."
"I'm sorry.."
"I'm sorry.."
Sofia pulls Richi's body into her arms. He hugged her tightly. Sofia could not bear to see the look on her face that continued to feel guilty.
Richi is surprised that Sofia suddenly hugs him. He returned Sofia's embrace gently.
"Don't apologize.. Please.." Sofia Murmured.
"Have you forgiven me?" Ask Richi.
Sofia did not reply, She just nodded her head a few times.
"Thank you.." Richi takes off her embrace and kisses Sofia's forehead gently. Tears came out of the corner of her eye. Sofia rubbed it with her fingers.
"Don't cry.." Sofia.
"I'm not.." Richi shook his head.
Shhh
Sofia touches Richi's lips with her index finger.
"Don't say anything.."
"You didn't make a mistake.." For the first time Sofia smiles in front of Richi.
Richi could no longer hold himself back. This, this was what she wanted, a smile on Sofia's face, for her, for herself.
Tears flowed from the corner of her eyes, now the panicked Sofia. She takes the clean cloth next to her bed, because she realizes Richi's handkerchief has been dirty by her.
"Don't cry.."
"Had..."
"Have stopped.." Said Sofia while wiping off Richi's tears.
"Kiss Me.."
"I'll stop crying.." Richi smiled nosily.
"Me?"
"Kiss you?" Sofia answered nervously.
Now he doesn't stop looking at Richi's pink lips and tender eyes. Richi is anxious to see Sofia's cute expression.
She licked Sofia's lips which opened quickly.
"You..!!" Sofia rubbed her wet lips.
Richi laughed at Sofia's rapidly changing expression.
"Stop..!" Sofia.
"Yes.."
"Yes.." Richi wiped her tears back.
Sofia pulls off Richi's collar and kisses Richi's lips quickly.
THE CUP!!
Richi was surprised, his eyes wide open. She did not expect Sofia to do that.
"What??" Said Sofia boldly.
Richi pulls the back of Sofia's neck quickly and kisses her lips.
Sofia did not fight.
