"There are these types of table napkins and each has a different purpose" she just rolled her eyes. "Cant we just skip to the real meal, im starving"
"Im sorry Miss Sandy, but you have to know every details in proper table etiquette" She remove the table napkin from her lap at looked at her mid 40's teacher.
"Look madam table etiquette teacher, i dont need this lessons, im not going to a single formal party for the rest of my life so dont bother" Sandy slam the napkin in the table.
"But you need this in your wedding Miss" She looked at her, fierce. She wanted to grab that womans hair for saying the word wedding but she restrain herself.
"There will be no wedding to attend..." Sandy looked at her coldly, she doesnt want to her that word for the rest of her life "...so get your b.u.t.t outta here or ill throw them off of you" The lady eyes filled with fear, she never seen a woman so scary.
"Sandy" both of them looked at the man standing in fron of the door, no expression but with just a looked of his can tame a lion. But not her, shes no lion "Thank you Madam Chen, ill take it from here" Reil said to the lady then looked at her. But she didnt even change her gaze.
As soon as the teacher leave the room, Reil slam the door creating a loud noise, snapping her out.
"What do you think your doing?!" Sandy almost shout when she state those sentence.
"I should be asking you that, what are you doing, you dont have any respect, you act like a grown woman, but your nothing but a brat" She wasnt supposed to be scared off him, but she is, and she has no
"Wow, look whos talking. Your the one who just came to our life unannouced asking me for marriage and expect me to say yes to it just like that" Sandy take a step back, judging by his expression, she has a little time left inside that room. She suddenly closed her eyes in fear when Reil slam the book his holding on the table.
"Read that, and you are not going outside this room till you finish it" without looking at her, Reil turn his back and leave.
"You wish" Sandy didnt even gave a glimpse of the book that Reil left, hence she went to the window looking down to the grounf from the second floor. "If i cant get out from the door, then ill use the window" a smile drawn in her face.
Sandy made sure to lock the door, grabbed the curtain ang create an artificial rope to grab on. Its not that high, she conviced herself. She throw the curtain outsid the window.
"Remember this old hag, there will be no wedding, im sure of it" she left out an evil silent laugh before going down the window. But she just took a few step down when some spot her.
"Miss! What are you doing!" She didnt expected to be spotted that why she panicked.
"Miss is escaping!!" With the man shouting ang running inside the house, she hurriedly climbed down, making her force doubled. She looked at the knot of the curtain, panicked strike her again when she saw that the know is loosening.
"Oh no! Help!" she shouted for help as her tears flow because of fear. "..i dont want to die.." she cried to herself.
"Sandy!" she look at the ground and found Reil standing looking at her --dammit!!-- Reil exclaimed in his head.
"Sandy let go, ill catch you" he a.s.sured her
"No, i wont, im gonna die" she continued crying, tightning her grip in the curtain.
"Your not gonna die, i promise, trust me, let go"
"No, i will not let go!" "Please, trust me, just this once, let go" Sandy were silent, this is the first time she ever heard him plead. She suddenly feel relieved and wanting to trust the man under her. But before she could say that she will trust him, the knot of the curtain loosened, making her fall to the ground.
"Ahhh!!" It was too quick that Reil didnt find time to prepare himself, he catch her with too much weight that his knees werent stable enought to carry her. Reil felt his whole body touch the ground while hugging Sandy is on top of him.
"Please, dont ever do that again" he wispered in her ears, tightning his hug around her. But after realizing how awkward their position was, Reil suddenly push her away from him.
"What were you thinking! Do you want to die!" he shouted angrily at her. Sandy's teary eyes turn to anger. Recieving this kind of treatment right after her near death experience.
"I wis.h.!.+" she shouted back "...if your gonna shout at me, you should have just let me fall and die!"
"If only i can!" both of them just stare at each other, no one is saying a word while other servant in the house where watching them.
"Get this girl out of my sight" Reil ordered his servants and looked at different direction without moving his body.
"Lets go inside miss" But sandy remove the hands of the maid fron her arms.
"Let go of me, im fine" Sandy went inside the house and the maid followed her inside.
Reil bring out a sigh. Then called his driver (the one who saw Sandy in the window)
"Mr. Reil, are you okay" the man walk towards him.
"Help me, Dan (the driver) i think i sprained my leg" Dan help his boss to stand. Then he saw scratches in Reil elbow.
"Sir, your bleeding!" he exclaimed, but Reil just smiled.
"Its okay, its just a little scratch"
Dan looked at his boss. Thinking about how good his boss were, and he doesnt deserve to be treated like this. If so, why did he still want to marry this girl.
