Remnants of a sad Tale

He has pink hair and black eyes. He looks quite cute. It's my first time seeing a boy. Who might have the same age as me? When he saw me in the maid outfit, Linda wouldn't want me to wear colourful clothes anymore, so I got these old clothes instead.

That pink head boy kept his breath for three entire seconds while continuously staring at Iannae and said "Are you a maid, you are really pretty . At first I thought that you are also a Miss of this household and playing dumb to trouble your parents. Am I wrong?".

Iannae blushed a little but replied casually with courtesy. . " My lord might have mistaken me, I am just a mere maid of this aristocratic household. What's brought My lord all the way here inside this filthy laundry".

Oh! I am here for marriage. . with your master 'Katina' due to a mistake a few drops of tea fell on me, could you help me by washing this extra shirt Miss Pretty Maid ". said that pink hair guy.

"Of course," said Iannae with pleasure.

Suddenly Katina came to the laundry room and saw a relaxed smile on (pink hair guy) Yuka's face. It makes her wonder .'What were they two talking about?'

Katina and her fiance both leave the room together leaving only Iannae behind.

Iannae prays for both of them to stay happy and healthy forever with each other. . .

Two weeks later a piece of news breaks out that the engagement between Luka and Katina was annulled and there is no chance of a marriage between both of them.

Katina cried a lot and blamed everything on Iannae. Katina said, wrapping arms around her chest, "Since he saw you. He always mentioned you and asked about your f" ing name from me. You know what Iannae, you were nowhere, not even inside this palace when Luka came to the mansion and It's not like he ever met you. Luka just saw you once and after that you were everywhere in Luka's mind. when we went out he mentioned you in our conversation.

He does whatever, it was always in your regards like -- your behaviour, your elegance, and your f***ing beauty, it's apparently because of you Iannae. You are the reason why Luka has a change of heart and annulled our engagement. If it's you, then there is no way he will be mine. . . Mother punishes this wench, Iannae. She succeeds in seducing my future husband "

Linda stops Katina from crying and approves of her stupid desire...

"Stop crying sweetly, We will do whatever you want. Ok, Iannae needs to teach a lesson anyway since it's a weekend. Right Iannae!" said Linda.

Iannae got terrified. She does not know what to do. She did nothing wrong. . She just wants to escape from this endless hell.

In the living room, Linda pulls out from her seat and takes a few steps closer to minimise the gap between Iannae and Linda. She grabbed Iannae's hand. Katina grasped Iannae's hair and started slapping her cheeks until they bled.

Despite several harassments, Iannae decides to stay in this hell not because she wants to. The reason was not to hurt her mother and sister's feelings. It was her only reason not to go away. She doesn't love her mother. It's just a single piece of respect Iannae holds toward Linda.

A feeling of guilt.

It's just that Iannae is afraid of upsetting her mother. She is still obediently willing to die for Linda.

Iannae just truly wants to oblige Linda for the torment, beating, and abuse She got from her husband or Iannae's biological father Harry. Linda might have beaten Iannae and others but she never left them entirely since Iannae was 2 years old. She was the only one who offered food to Iannae and fought in a situation where their father allowed them to throw all the children they have but Linda always struggled through her life.

Anyone could have gone crazy when they were left alone in this harsh world with three children and a single mother to feed . . .not to mention without any support for money. but Linda survives along with the three of us.

Iannae believes that Linda was trying to overcome her past through her present which might have been horrific to her at times. And there are only two ways to stabilise your psycho behaviour by destroying yourself or by destroying others. No one is perfect, that's the reason why? Linda has a preference for the wrong judgement. She prefers the latter over the former.

From Iannae's point of view, Linda picks a wise decision. If Linda inclines toward the former then she will destroy herself, and those three children will going to be homeless and forced into this harsh world alone without any Guardian

But from Samantha's point of view, It's nothing good even if Linda chooses the former and the three kids was going to be homeless at the very least they were going to survive on their own and may understand many things with the decision they make not like Katina, who got pampered by Linda's unreasonable affection and the path Linda seized already bring the destruction of two innocent children in regards to the survival of the one Katrina. She did not understand the value of people just like Linda, and Heiman where he Is? hell knows.

Lastly, Iannae loses her body not through Samantha but through Linda and gets defeated by the criminal despite being a victim.

It's already past noon since Ryan was listening to Iannae's illustration regarding this 'Sad Story' Samantha is still gathering her thoughts regarding former Iannae.

Ryan suddenly gasps Iannae's hand. which makes Iannae turn her head in Ryan's direction

Iannae gasped through her sense that Ryan is crying. . .

"Master, I appreciate your durability. How could you stay silent all those past years regardless of wearing all these emotions inside your heart, which I could not even think of, "said Ryan with a full compassionate face. . .

Ryan sobbed until his eyes became numb and they started to feel itchy at the corners. Iannae could not notice him because she was lost in her massive thoughts which almost led her to forget that Ryan was paying close attention to her every detailed explanation of the past.

Iannae wipe all the tears from Ryan's cheeks and said "There is no need to feel pressure, Ryan. They are my feelings. I can't hide them but 'Thank You' Ryan you must be the only one who cries for me, let's call it a day and I will proceed with my saga next time".

Ryan does not want to go but he realises that the prayer time has already been ratified. If he would not go now Iris will go to come for Ryan afterward.

Ryan nods his head in agreement and goes back to the main prayer hall and Iannae gets back to her evening prayer.

To be continued. . .
