Chapter 15 - Moving out

Celestia made sure that she has all the things she needed, her clothes, sanitary napkins, shampoo, and the little savings she has. She hopes that this will lasts at least three weeks, after all, she wants to let them know that she is already old enough to stand for herself, she's already 20 for Pete's sake!

She's been blind for too long and she knows it, as a child, she learned to be quiet the hard way, she remembers it clearly, when she was crying and wants the attention of her parents yet received none. It even ignited an argument between the two adults, she's a bright child, having an eidetic memory, talent in cooking and dancing, she almost had it all, almost.

Being homeschooled up to college, growing up in loneliness, she just has to accept it all, until now.

A bitter smile is plastered on her face as she recalls her childhood, her life. If the Gods do exist, she's hoping that destiny won't play again, she's praying earnestly because being numb is worst than feeling the pain. It's like being caged in an ice cube where you want to scream and break free but unable to do so, a helpless case.

She grabs the remaining things she needed and after she neatly folded her clothes, she waited for the arrival of Anna, she gave her a list to get from the kitchen. Why would she not bring some food with her? This household owes her many things and this is the least they can give to her, they will pay but not now, when she's stronger she will surely get what belongs to her originally

Revenge is not the word, it's just simply making things right. She's already willing to wake up as the Sleeping Beauty even without a prince kissing her, she will get up on her own accord to punish those who harbored malevolent intentions.

On the other hand, Anna who is currently in a life-threatening situation is waiting for the head chef and the crews to leave, the queen and her daughter just finished having dinner that's why the kitchen is not in a rush hour, they were just finishing the last pieces of plates before finally retiring to their chambers. She waited around five minutes before clearing the place and starting to gather the ingredients and food her master ordered her.

Blue cheese, 2 cauliflowers, 5 broccoli, saffron, 3 kilos of wagyu beef, one tub of Almas caviar, 3 pieces of lobsters and the list goes on. It's like staying out for half a year than 2 weeks!

Anna just shakes her head unknowingly as she carries a sack of goods stealthily.

By the time she reaches Celestia's bedroom, she is already catching her breath, what a tedious task it is to be Celestia's maid!

As the door opens, Celestia went up and helped carry the goods from her maid. She just prepared a little more before uttering her good bye's to Anna, now that she's gone, her maid will be assigned to do other things but she promised she will get Anna back when she returns.

Her original plan is to return within two weeks, but who knows how long will she stay out?

"I hope Ted won't mind, he is not always in his house anyway" Celestia muttered while carrying her things, the little light that comes from the flashlight of her cell phone is the only thing that serves as her guide in the dark.
