When Fate Decided to Play its Part

CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE:

The Beginning

--

In this world, many people have similar features as the others despite having no blood relation at all, so seeing someone familiar is not uncommon- but it is not common either. So, seeing a person that is oddly familiar to her, Althea was not even disturbed.

What disturbs her was the way she looks at her and her smile. She was pretty, she cannot deny that. She has this milky white and as shiny and smooth like a crystal ball skin that was obviously tended by a renowned dermatologist, it even glows since she was wearing a red backless and sleeveless party dress. Her red lip was plumped, and it looks bouncy, her hair was even gorgeously tied with loose hairs hanging. She screams an aura of a goddess with wealth.

Yes, again, she is pretty. And she looks smart. And feisty.

But then again, why is a beauty looking at her like she was a cow who was being guided towards the butchery? Althea had no clue at all.

They were just staring at each other in silence until Althea cannot bear it anymore. She tried smiling at the lady. “You… Also want to use the bathroom?”

That was a stupid question, she knows. But what kind of thing does she needs to say to her to escape an awkward silence? How to speak with a weird person? Also speak weirdly. Oh, right, she forgot to mention, she is still at the door! She is not even entering!

She is just standing there- how weird is that? Althea’s awkward smile faltered, and she decided to ignore her when she did not even give any answer to her question.

Whatever, she should do what she wants.

After deciding that, she turned back to face the mirror and looked at her arm that she was just soaking by water. The hot feeling that lingers earlier was gone and was replaced by the cold one. It even got colder as the air hits it. And Althea does not like the cold, just the whiteness of the winter.

She picked up the handkerchief she placed on top of her purse and began tapping the wet arm gently, ignoring the stares of the other.
