Odette Wants To Look For A Job

BANG!

Trish was startled when his bedroom door was opened and closed with a bang. "W-what's wrong?" Trish, who wanted to take off his clothes to treat his wound, stopped and looked at Anwen and Odette with confused faces.

Anwen looked at Trish intently, as if she had just found out that Trish had stolen her valuables.

"Trish, we need to talk," Anwen said seriously. Although feeling confused, Trish invited the two girls to sit on the sofa.

"I'll get straight to the point," Anwen said as soon as she sat down opposite Trish. "Did you know about my brother having DID?"

Trish was shocked. He looked at Odette and remembered the conversation he had with the brown-haired girl on their way home. He didn't like what Odette was doing.

"It's not good to take advantage of other people's troubles," Trish said displeasedly to Odette. He thought Odette was trying to pry the king's wounds to be able to return to her era.

Odette, who understood what Trish was implying, immediately admitted that she did want to go home, but she never intended to take advantage of other people's difficulties. She wanted to help because she knew she could help.

"I'm a psychiatrist and I understand what Rion is going through. He's not being cursed or possessed by evil spirits. He's just sick and needs treatment."

Trish looked at Odette intensely. He still looked distrustful of the girl.

"Trishy, I'm begging you to tell me anything you know. You're the one who is with big brother all the time, so it's impossible if you don't know about this," Anwen spoke up.

"I do not know." Trish still didn't want to tell.

"You're lying! You're with my brother all the time, you are only separated when you shower, sleep, and pee! So don't lie!" Anwen urged while glaring at Trish intently.

Trish was silent. He seemed to be lost in thought, and Odette could see the doubt on the man's face.

"I see. You won't just believe me because I'm a foreigner. Whether you believe it or not, I really want to help Rion."

"Why do you want to help the king? If it isn't because you want to go home, what is your reason for wanting to help His Majesty the King?" Trish showed his role as protector of the king.

"Because I'm a psychiatrist and it's my duty to treat the sick," answered Odette confidently.

Trish looked deeply into Odette's blue eyes and they looked very convincing.

Anwen asked Trish to stop doubting and tell her what really happened.

Trish closed his eyes and let out a tired breath.

"Sorry, I don't know what you're talking about," he said.

Although Odette looked sincere, Trish didn't want to let his guard down. So far, the only ones who knew about the king's condition were Her Highness Cristela, several royal doctors, and several saints who had dealt with the king.

The king's mental state was kept a secret because if the enemy knew about it, they would take advantage of it to overthrow the king. Trish couldn't take such a big risk telling Odette just because Anwen asked him to, and because she felt that Odette could be trusted from seeing the girl's eyes.

"When you're done, can you leave my room now?" Trish asked.

Anwen looked annoyed, but Odette immediately touched the young girl's shoulder and then gave Anwen a look that hinted at Anwen to stay calm. After that, Odette stood up, followed by Anwen. Before leaving, Odette looked back at Trish, who was still sitting.

"Rion is lucky to have a friend like you. You can come to me when you feel I can be trusted," she said to Trish sincerely, then walked out with Anwen.

When the two girls left, Trish didn't even move from his seat. He wondered if Odette could really help the king. If that was true then the king had a chance to live a normal life again. Should he talk about this to the king?

***

Time passed, and suddenly, Odette had been in Green Castle for two weeks. She had adapted to her new world. Due to her friendly demeanor, she easily got along with the residents of the castle. She lived comfortably there, but she felt bad because she ate and lived in that place without paying anything and doing nothing. Now she was unemployed. She was a freeloader.

Odette felt the need to find a job and earn money, and then lived her life. She couldn't just stay in that castle, could she? But what jobs could she do? And where should she look for work?

"Miss Ody." Anwen stepped into Odette's room. After two weeks together, they became very close.

Anwen sat next to Odette.

"Miss Ody, today my brother will return home," she said. Well, it had been a week since Rion left the castle. He had said that he went to the west part of the castle to participate in the planning of the residents' house renovation. "After he gets home, we can find out more about his DID."

Ever since Anwen found out that Rion had DID, she never got tired of reminding Odette, so they could continue to find out why Rion had DID. Anwen really wanted her brother to get well.

"Miss Ody, what's wrong?" Anwen asked while touching Odette's shoulder, and it woke up Odette from her reverie.

Odette looked at Anwen, who was sitting next to her, with a slightly surprised and confused expression. Because she thought so seriously about the work she had to do, as well as her survival in the new world, she didn't realize when Anwen had come and sat next to her.

"Miss Ody, what were you thinking about?"

Odette exhaled tiredly. "Sorry Anwen, I was daydreaming, I was thinking about finding a job."

"Huh? Work? Why?"

"I can't stay here any longer. I have to find a job, earn money, buy a house, and move on."

"Miss Ody, why do you have to think about work? You can stay here forever, or we can go to the royal palace and live there. Um..." Anwen tilted her head as she realized something. "Ah, no. We'll just stay here."

Anwen said those words after realizing that she still couldn't return to the palace, because the terror of an arranged marriage was still following her. Odette explained to the young girl that she couldn't continue to live under someone else's care as a freeloader.

She also told Anwen that she was very uncomfortable, because she did not do any work and got a comfortable place to live and free food every day, while the others had to work hard to get all those things.

Her mother had taught Odette not to live on the mercy of others. God had gifted humans with reason. So, as long as her intellect was fine and she could use it well, then everything would be fine. Besides that, Odette's body was also healthy, so she was optimistic that she would get a job and be able to survive in that world well.
