The Eyes of the Devil's Bride

The Eyes of the Devil's Bride
Prove It to Me



Unwilling to be a spectacle of people passing by in front of the Apartment building, without speaking a bit Xyan stepped away leaving Shanika, that instant also made Shanika who was still confused rushed to follow Xyan's steps until she entered the elevator door.


“Jawab my question, you are not human?” shanika asked again as she wiped her tears and continued to stare at Xyan from the side with her fixed gaze.


“Why shut up? explain to me!” pinta Shanika who at that time also made Xyan feel annoyed and the lights in the elevator was flickering “Uwa?! What happened?” shanika was shocked when the elevator he was entering was slightly shaking as if he wanted to fall.


While Xyan was still silent, that second also turned her head towards Shanika while saying “Part of me. Is my answer enough to answer your question?” said Xyan with a slightly taut tone.


And just before Shanika replied to Xyan, suddenly the elevator door opened and Xyan immediately stepped out from inside the elevator. Shanika who was still curious, without much thought continued to follow Xyan until she reached the door of the male Apartment.


“If not human? What part of you is that?” shanika asked as she held back the half-opened door of Apartment Xyan using her left hand.


“Devil,” replied Xyan while replying to Shanika's gaze with her fixed gaze that looked very serious.


Shanika who heard Xyan's answer also reflexively muttered “Devil?” after that start laughing slowly, as if laughing at a joke “How can you laugh?” shocked Xyan as he saw the strange reaction from Shanika.


“Haha! I just feel so unreasonable! After being able to see ghosts... Now I also met a half-demon human?! sure enough,” Shanika said at length while continuing to laugh with her disbelief expression.


“Forget it,” replied Xyan while pushing Shanika's body which had already prevented her from entering her Apartment.


After being pushed by Xyan, Shanika swiftly held back the door of Apartment Xyan again while saying “Prove!” which again makes Xyan feel annoyed and frustrated “What do you say?” xyan asked while frowning his forehead.


“Prove! That way... I can decide, in the future I will believe or not you!” pinta Shanika was without the slightest fear towards Xyan.

Xyan also invited Shanika into his Apartment and immediately took the sharp object he used to cook, which immediately also made Shanika's eyes widen “A-what would you do?!” panic Shanika.


And without saying much more, Xyan directly scratched the sharp object he held it on the palm of his left hand “Srak!” which at that time also made the surrounding apartment floor exposed to many drops of blood.


“Kya! You okay?!” panicked Shanika again who quickly took out a tissue nearby to hold the blood coming out of Xyan's palm.


“I ask you to prove, not to injure yourself-“ Shanika suddenly stopped saying, because while she was trying to stop the bleeding on Xyan's hand, she said, the wound on Xyan's hand had already healed within a short period of time.


Shanika was silent and her brain seemed to freeze with what she had just seen, because for the second time she felt a very unreasonable thing after she could see ghosts.


Xyan quickly washed the sharp object he was holding in the sink, after which he picked up a dry towel for Shanika and did not forget to immediately clean the blood droplets that stained her Apartment floor.


While Shanika who was still silent, currently sitting limp on the sofa while holding tightly the towel Xyan gave her. Not too long later, Shanika's gaze began to point towards Xyan who was currently still cleaning the floor while thinking “Human half Devil,” with his fixed gaze.


Xyan who felt Shanika's gaze immediately sighed as she muttered “Now.... You must be afraid of me,” that instantly also made Shanika jerk and realize from her daydream “Takut?” shanika muttered with her confused expression.


“All the humans I've told you will definitely be scared... or looking for an opportunity to do something bad!” connect Xyan with her flat face that looks full of depressed feelings.


“For me... You are like a protector!” reply Shanika who at that time also made Xyan surprised and immediately looked at him with a look of disbelief “Protector said you?” xyan asked while raising one of his eyebrows.


“Ah! It's only right that the ghosts disappear if I'm around you! They must be afraid of you, because you are half a Devil!” said Shanika with her tone of speech that suddenly became very cheerful, while clapping her own hands.


Xyan who heard Shanika's words shook his head and again said “I am a Devil and a Devil is much more dangerous than a ghost! Do you still not understand? Anytime I can hurt you! You should have been afraid of me!” with a high tone of speech while slamming the washcloth he used to clean the floor in front of Shanika.


Shanika who had been silent, a few seconds later again said “A-do you want me to be afraid of you?” with a look of compassion towards Xyan who was currently trying to contain her anger.


“You are indeed a Devil. But, as much as you are also human, just like me!” shanika continued with her slightly trembling voice, as if she was trying to hold back her cries.


“What?” murmured Xyan with his shrinking voice.


“After all, right now only you can count on,” continued Shanika again as she got up from her seat and again dared herself to look at Xyan.


Xyan who did not want to argue or make Shanika cry even more sighed again, after that said “Yes, sooner or later,” with his tone that sounds like he doesn't care.


“Use the towel correctly, you must have been rained! Your hair is still wet,” connect Xyan while picking up the medicine box for Shanika “After that, treat your wounds!” xyan said without even looking at Shanika's face.


“Hm, thank you.” Shanika replied while nodding her head.


Although she had been afraid of Xyan when she first met, Shanika really wanted to become familiar with the pretentious man who did not care in front of her, because Shanika believes that Xyan is a warm man and the only person who can protect her.


“It seems... This man managed to grow something inside me, Shanika's inner” every time he saw a hidden charm on Xyan's self that was not easily seen by others.
