Chapter 1

1232 Words
JULIETTE The whole room was filled with deafening silence when my maid or should I say, Juliette's maid uttered that name which just happened to be the name of the villain's character of the manga that I've been reading before I die. I blinked twice as the mirror fell from my hand and landed on my bed. "Have you lost your memory, My Lady!? Oh no! This is a big problem! I must convey this to the duke and duchess--" "No!" I unintentionally raised my voice making the maid shiver. Who wouldn't fear a girl like Juliette? She's a witch for heaven's sake! She's like a lucifer's female version! "I-i mean I don't have a memory loss. My head suddenly aches. Uhh, please bring me some medicine and water." "R-right away, M-My Lady!" When I'm sure that I am the only one in my room. I stood up suddenly. It proved to be a very wrong move as my knees suddenly became jelly!! Suddenly what the maid said to me earlier hit my head so hard. You were sick and burning up, My lady! We thought that you'll never wake up because you've been sleeping for a week now! As I remembered. Juliette was burning up for 3 whole weeks in what I read before I die. But I wonder why her body was fine after a week? Was it because of me? I silently sighed and told myself to get a grip on myself as I went to my room's balcony. Juliette Margarette Fitoria. The only daughter of Duke Claude Fitoria and Duchess Julienne Rose Fitoria. Ever Since her mom died when she was at the tender age of seven she became a completely different person. From a good, kind girl to a shameless brat. When she wanted something she got it. She always went berserk and threw tantrums whenever she didn't get what she wanted. And I now remembered this situation... She wants the Prince of Oltaire Kingdom... Prince Leon De Alger Oltaire. The Prince Charming. The man of a girl's dreams. And the man in Juliette's dream. Because of Juliette's obsessive love for the Prince. She did horrible things. Like... Killing Anna Rue Quartz... Anna Rue Quartz. The daughter of a Viscount in the kingdom. Even though they're second to the last royal titles. She's the Prince's favored lover. So in short... Juliette was a disaster in the making. And I was SO THANKFUL that this time. Juliette is still 15 years old. The time where she only threw around stuff and did not yet do anything stupid like burning down the whole Fitoria Household... The door opened and my father entered with a worried face. "Juliette!?" He exclaimed. He ran towards me and hugged me like there was no tomorrow. "F-father?" I stuttered. "Yes, princess are you already alright? Is any part of you hurt? Do you want anything? New clothes? Pieces of jewelry? Say the word and I will give it to you." As expected of the world's best dad... Duke Claude Fitoria. Juliette's father. The one is responsible for Juliette's spoiled attitude. He gave everything to his beloved daughter, making her a spoiled brat. Though, sadly he died protecting Juliette. In the story, Juliette robbed a large amount of money from the royal family and hid it because she knows that sooner than later, she will be caught because of her evil deeds. But before she could run away. The Prince put a death sentence on her head for robbery. But... Her father took the death sentence for Juliette and Duke Claude died while protecting his beloved daughter until his last breath. "My princess? Why are you crying? Did father do something to make princess upset?" My father sweetly said to me. How could his daughter do that to such a wonderful father!? I got all of Juliette's memory and many of those where she bullied her father. I hugged him tightly and whispered. "I am sorry father... I love you. You're the best father in the whole world." I felt my father stiffen but he hugged me back. He kissed my forehead and carefully lay me on the bed. "I love you too my princess. Now sleep to get a better day tomorrow. No getting out of the bed." Father said and went out of the room. I now need to think of a plan to avoid the dangerous prince at all costs. Since Juliette failed to be a daughter, I will make it up for her. I know if she's given another chance to get back at her body. She would try to be a good person. First of all, I needed to avoid royalty. Especially the prince and the king. Oh no, the king is my biggest problem. He knew from the start that I was evil did but he still tried to marry the prince to me. Waah, what a waste... I looked out the window to see that the weather was nice today. If I were still in my original body. Maybe at this time, I would be in my lab doing some experiments. As I didn't go out of my lab so often, I didn't appreciate the weather back then. But now it's kind of different and new to me. It feels like I want to get out of here and take a walk alongside the rose wall. The door opened again and the maid came in with a tray. She gave me the medicine and the water. I tried to remember her name from Juliette's memory. And good thing Juliette remembered it. "Elsie," I called. She was about to go out of the room but stopped when I called her. She turned while shivering in fear like a frightened bunny. It was understandable. She had been abused by Juliette for so long so why wouldn't she be scared? But even when she did all those things to her, she remained faithful and died for Juliette's safety in the end. "Yes My Lady?" She asked. "Come here." I could see nervous gulp clearly as she took small steps towards me. When she's already at my front I raised my hand causing her eyes to forcibly close as if she's getting herself ready for something that will come to her face. I stood up and thankfully my knees are not kind of jelly now. She flinched when I raised my hand as I f afraid I would slap her. But then, I pat her head as her eyes opened wide in surprise. Clearly, she was not expecting this kind of thing from me. "I'm very sorry for the things I did to you in the past... Can... Can you forgive me? C-can you be my friend?" I asked, tearing up. I remember how she gets killed; How she sacrificed herself for my safety. She's a person I need in my life. A trustable person. A faithful friend. A loyal one. She too teared up and hugged me tightly. I know she cares even though Juliette abused her in the past. She kept thinking that one day her lady will change. Fortunately... I came here to change the nasty looks I would be getting from people in the future and to change myself into a good person. I just wanted to be a normal person now. A commoner to be specific (edited)
