Adoptive Daughter Gloriosa (3)

"Gloria, wake up!" Anastasia burst through her dark room full of cloths and items everywhere. She immediately opened the curtains and pulled Miyu out of bed.

Miyu was reluctant was made not effort nor gave any resistance when was pulled, she had bags under her open eyes as she was staring blankly at the floor. She pulled an all-nighter again due to reading some novels on her phone and her twitter account was suspended for some unjust reason.

Anastasia had brought the maids to clean up her room while she worked on her brushing her hair. Miyu just sat there without moving as Anastasia played dressed up and then pulled her out of the room to greet everyone at the table for breakfast.

'Why am I again', Miyu thought she respectfully greet the couple still pulling loving faces toward each other.

"Do you really have to go?" Marine said to her husband, Viscount Briar-Rose who touched her stomach. She was about 2 months into her pregnancy.

"Yes, I will be back before you know it"

Ella and Anastasia couldn't help but cheese at the couple will secretly happy at the new addition to their family. While Miyu was completely immersed in her own thought wondering what happens next her in what she is reading, Oh how she wanted to go into her room and hide under the covers and continue reading.

So whatever the happy family was saying simply went through her mind, including Viscount Briar-Rose departing for some unknown reason.

It wasn't until another month later when they where told of his passing. Miyu stood somewhat frozen in place as she saw all three women sob at the injured aide words, attacked by a beast and killed instantly. He was gone.

'What the frick? He's dead' Miyu panicked inside but didn't show any expression she couldn't imagine what Rachel would say to her right now.

"Mom, Mom" Anastasia called to Marine fainted snapping Miyu back into action.

"Go get a Doctor!" Miyu yelled at a servant when she saw the Marine was bleeding below, Ella stood pale frozen and sobbing. Anastasia was the same, as Miyu had Marine carried into the bedroom buckets of water with a towel on her head. Sighing, Miyu really wanted to call Rachel but at the same time stopped herself. Her two-sisters sat in the same room with the eerily silent following behind.

Miyu was by the door waiting for the doctor to come out, she felt a headache coming. And then the doctor walked out making the Ella and Ana jump up hoping for good news. Unfortunately, the man could only calmly give the bad news.

Leaning against the pillar after sending her sisters away, and seeing her mother was still unconscious in her bed. Miyu went into the now dead Viscount Briar-Rose office and pulled out her phone.

"Hello" Miyu heard Rachel's merrily voice and felt like puking

"Viscount Briar-Rose is dead" was the first thing Miyu said

"What the frick? He's dead" Rachel said shocked

"My thoughts exactly"

"How, weren't you paying attention"

"….."

"Miyu, you were paying attention right"

"….." Miyu really had nothing to say as she was guilty of carelessness.

"….."

"…..."

"WHAT IN THE ABSOULTE PINEAPPLES!" Rachel yelled at her.

Miyu head the phone away as she listening to Rachels rant at her until she finally calmed down.

"Ugh, okay, so just pay attention more attention this time. Grief does very strange things to people okay."

"Okay"

A moment later Rachel hung leaving Miyu contemplating in silence.

"He's actually dead" Miyu heard a whisper and then suddenly a heart-twisting pain nearly consumed. She felt like she couldn't breathe. "Why did he have to die?" she heard this voice before.

"Elfin?" Miyu struggled out on the floor.

[It's the Original Gloriosa, she is probably lashing out due to the Viscount's death. Just endure for Now and it will be over eventually]

Miyu controlled her breathing but she still felt the pain in her chest. Until it abruptly stopped leaving Miyu a sweating mess and pale on the sofa. She grabbed her phone and started reading again "Almost forgot"

If Rachel was here she would have definitely smacked her.
