Red Dress

Chapter 6

Another day with this body and life. I wake up early in the morning when I heard the click of the door in this room where I first get in without entering in their front door that I don't know if that's called front door because it is look like a gate in the palace of Versailles in the world that full of magic. Actually, this thing that happening to me already have an magic that envelop in my whole being that shaked my whole life, literal from being a baby that crawl in the lot that full of sticky thing to became a shinning and shimmering princess.

"Who's that?" I asked. Rubbing my eyes trying to open it to see the person that have a guts to enter my room without my knowledge.

"Brother!" Surprisely shouted at him. Fastly get up from my bed and sit still in the edge of my bed. Looked up at him with sleepy eyes. I look like a kitten that being caught sneaking on their kitchen to get a food.

"Do you need something?" Curious why early in the morning his already here standing still in front of me. Looking down on me as if I am the most smallest person he ever seen in his life. He didn't answer me. Peculiarity of his actions. First, he come in without asking my permission. Second, standing still without answering my question. I feel like I'm talking to a statue. Maybe his having a sleep walk?, but it's not a night anymore, the sun is already arising, emphasizing the beginning of everything, that I should start to act as their daughter.

"Brother?" hesitant to get his attention when he didn't do anything just looking deeply in my face as if trying to solve a puzzle problem and he can find the answer through my face.

"Stop calling me brother," He said dryly.

Why he is like that? Why his doing it to me? Why his treating me this way? The way he looked at me as if I am criminal that did a horrible things to his family even the thing that I did is to overcome the body of his sister. I didn't even want that. Half of it I want it but half of it I don't want. Causing chaos into their family isn't my attention at all even to myself I don't know how can I explain this phenomenon happening in my life. I never want to be trapped and in this foreordained situation of mine. Did he know the situation I have?Yes. The way he treated me is the symptoms that he have an idea about me. And he know that I'm not his sister anymore.

"Why?, did I do something wrong?"

I cannot look into his eyes. Emotions folding in my heart causing it to beat rapidly. Cannot explain his behavior but somehow I understand that his doubting my sudden change of action. He thought that I am a different person which is true but my physical appearance saying otherwise. Neither I will tell the truth or he will definite dig deeper to know my secret. Red dress have it's own history that I badly wanted to know. That dress changing it's color without me doing anything. As if that dress have it's own mind to work on it's own.

"Nothing, we're gonna eat our breakfast. Come downstairs." He said nonchalantly. Turn his back and he made his way outside of my room. I follow him without making myself fixed. It's not necessary cause magic have it's own way to make me presentable without hassling my self. Naming it's magic cause there's nothing exact word to explain this miraculous happenings.

I sit in my usual spot wherein my chair and Aldhruv chair is near to each other but right now I noticed that our chair are so near to each other like there's no wind could interrupt on it, insect couldn't lay it's finger on the space behind our chair although I couldn't see any insect inside their house. I really love the life I have now, I could say I have a family. Literal a family. Since everything we do, we do it altogether. No one would left behind. We're doing it altogether such cleaning the house even though they already have a maid, eating together, swimming in the pool, sitting in the balcony having a tea quarter time and so on. When I get here I already see Mr and Mrs Pellirita occupying the chair that intentionally made just for them through the written words in the corner of that chair.

Two days passed by I ancendentsly observe the differences of the family I used to be with and the family I currently have now. Divulged of everything that occurrences I faced right now outmoded the answered that circling my mind via thought that puzzlely couldn't form a right term to answer it congruously.
