Episode 3

(A year after)

[in this world, the age of a person became an adult is at the age of fifteen. As such, an orphan who had come to age can leave the orphanage with the approval of the orphanage's director. Now that I had reached the age of fifteen, I'm trying to get my approval to head out into society together with Naiah from this pig bastard.] (Arnel)

"I see you had done great service while in the care of the orphanage. Even caretaker Sola sing her praises towards you. But I can say the same for the girl..." (Director)

[I had some thoughts he will say that. From what I had knew about the director, he's no different than that wench, Sola. Worse, in fact…] (Arnel)

"But if you are willing… I could give her an approval if you managed to gather two gold coins, as a fee for taking care of her within this orphanage." (Director)

(smile)

[Greedy bastards, the lot of them… two gold coins in no meager sum for a common people to procure, much worse for jobless orphans. Even with the combine funds that I hid away is only about a gold and several silvers.] (Arnel)

100 bronze coin - 1 silver coin

1000 silver coins - 1 gold coin

[But that's for normal circumstances. With the knowledges that I had from reading the novel, gathering such money is an easy task.] (Arnel)

"B-but that's-…?!" (Naiah)

(stops)

"Arne… w-where can we find such money…?" (Naiah)

(Nervously whispers)

"Don't worry. I will find a way." (Arnel)

(whispers)

(Looks back at the director)

"Two gold coins, right?" (Arnel)

"That's right. There will be no time limit for that matter. and also, i give my blessing for the two of you be married off officially since it's a requirement for orphans to have the seal of approval from their guardian." (Director)

[This is one of the reasons why we need the director's approval before we escape from this hell hole later on. With the seal of approval from the director, we can board the train to leave this country and will not be barred from the law with those legal papers. Good thing he's a greedy bastard…] (Arnel)

"I give my utmost gratitude to the director." (Arnel)

"Good. Now, if that is all?" (Director)

"We will take out leave." (Arnel)

(Leaves together)

(Door closed)

(Lights up a cigarette)

[Stupid brats… they can go to hell for all I care. But from what I heard from that wench Sola, that Arnel kid knows how to make money from doing things that normal brats couldn't. I should suck him dry before throwing him and that little witch from this orphanage. They soon know the harsh reality of society anyway.] (Director)

"I'm such a genius…" (Director)

(tak, tak, tak!)

(Burst open!)

(Table slammed!)

"Eeek.!! Oh, it's just you…" (Director)

"Did you give that brat Arnel your approval?! What were you thinking!?" (Sola)

[I knew this would happen, that boy is her favorite after all. But to see her getting worked up this much… as I suspected that boy is messing with the doll that I had my eyes on. But seeing her acted like so really turns me on… let's play with her for a moment before the main dish~…] (Director)

"I didn't. Just calm down-…" (Director)

"Calm down!? You want me to calm-… wait, you didn't?" (Sola)

"Well… not now anyway. I told the brat to prepare two gold coins for that little witch's approval letter." (Director)

"T-two gold coins?! You should ask ten!! Do you know how much did that brat-… opps…" (Sola)

[I knew this wench takes all the money that brat has gathered till now… to think that she only gives me less than half what she got every now and then. She should be punish for her greed…] (Director)

"Don't stop talking, continue…" (Director)

"I-I seems to misunderstand… please don't mind me-…" (Sola)

"How much?" (Director)

"S-sorry…?" (Sola)

"How much had you gotten from that brat?" (Director)

(Slowly stand up)

(Flinch!)

(approach)

"You seem to forget who I am, Sola… do I need to remind you who I am again?" (Director)

(Forehead nervously twitching)

"It seems you become arrogant after I let you do as you pleased. Perhaps i should teach you a lesson to discipline you…." (Director)

(Grab hair!)

"Ack!" (Sola)

"I ask again, who am I? How much did you get from that brat?" (Director)

"Y-y-you are the di-director of the o-orphanage…! A-and i-I only took half of that brat's daily incomes, I swear!!" (Sola)

[she seems to be telling the truth… but half? That kid surely a money-making slave that I had ever had within this orphanage. But even so, he will become a nuisance if he stays in this orphanage for much longer… I should get rid of him after he fetch me those gold coins. Heheheh….] (Director)

(Release!)

"Don't ever forget that. Now, go and stand near the desk and lift your ass for me." (Director)

(Flinch!)

"Y-yes…" (Sola)

(Slowly approach the desk)

(Push down!)

"Ack! P-please be gentle… eeekkk!!" (Sola)

(Hastily takes off pants and underwear)

(Shoved!)

"Hnn!!" (Sola)

"You are my whore. Act like a whore! Ahahahha…!" (Director)

(Moves!)

(Moans!)

[T-this bastard pig!! I swear I will get him for all he has done to me!] (Sola)

......

(Later in the evening)

"That's all there is, thanks a bunch for helping, Arne, Naiah!" (Charlotte)

[This is Charlotte, a girl who own's a small flower shop that she inherited from her late parents. She's about nineteen years old and had the vibe of an older sister.] (Arnel)

"I got to say, your strange ideas really put my flower sells business boomed. Even the aristocrats started to send their servants to buy my stuffs." (Charlotte)

[I got to know her a year ago when my shoe polishing business was put into a hold because of the winter. When I first met her, she almost closed her shop because there's almost no customer came to buy her flowers. Though, she was skeptical at first when I gave her some ideas of making flower boutiques rather than selling them as they were.] (Arnel)

"But I say… using carts to sell flowers, I never had imagined that this could possible if not for your suggestion." (Charlotte)

"Right? Now everyone knows your shop and go there!" (Naiah)

(excited)

(chuckles)

"You right. If I didn't meet Arne and you that time, I already closed off my shop and move to the countryside. From what we got; I shouldn't be worried about Cal's medication fee anymore." (Charlotte)

[Cal is Charlotte's nine-year-old little brother who got delivered prematurely and had a chronic illness. He's usually stays in bed because of his condition and Charlotte had been taken care of him alone since their mother pass away a couple of years before I woken up in this world. This may be the reason why they aren't like the rest of the people that I had met who were greedy and self-centered. Even though Naiah had dark pitch hair, they didn't mistreat her. They are the small number of people that has been kind to us that I had known since woken in this world.] (Arnel)

"Now, let's get back to the shop!" (Charlotte)

"Yes!" (Arnel, Naiah)

(After a while)

(enters)

"Sister!" (Cal)

(Hug!)

"Cal?! Shouldn't you be on bed?! Why are you-…" (Charlotte)

"I miss you… a-and I'm getting better th-thanks to the meds anyway…!" (Callum)

[Little dude is a *siscon…] (Arnel)

"I know you are getting better. But that doesn't mean you should go around like this. What if you suddenly pass out while we are outside!?" (Charlotte)

(Flinch!)

"T-thats…? Hic…" (Callum)

(sniffles)

"*sigh…. Look. I'm only angry because you should take care of your body, okay? There, there…" (Charlotte)

(Nod weakly)

(Slowly backs away)

"Now, say your greetings to Arne and Naiah." (Charlotte)

(peek)

"H-hello big bro Arnel… big sis Naiah…" (Callum)

[although he's a tiny siscon, he's still a polite kid. But why is she blushing when looking at Naiah?] (Arnel)

"I will prepare the meals before you guys' head back to the orphanage. And Cal…?" (Charlotte)

(Flinch!)

"Y-yes…?!" (Cal)

"Go back to bed." (Charlotte)

"B-but?! I want to play with big sis Naiah…!" (Callum)

"This brat… don't bother Naiah. She's tired after working all day." (Charlotte)

"But I wanna~….!" (Callum)

"No buts! Go to your room!" (Charlotte)

"Hmp! Big sis is a meany~…. Uwaaa….!!" (Callum)

(Ran away)

"I swear that brat… please forgive him for acting like that, you guys…" (Charlotte)

"No worries. He's a good kid." (Arnel)

"Nn." (Naiah)

(nod)

"But I can play with him for a moment if he really wants to." (Naiah)

"Really?!" (Charlotte)

"Nn. I'm not that tired anyway." (Naiah)

"….. Thank you, Naiah… I will make some extra portion for you as thanks." (Charlotte)

(Eyes glittering)

"Nn!" (Naiah)

(Walks away)

[Naiah's become quite a glutton after meeting with Charlotte… its a good thing though. She hardly had anything to eat back in the orphanage anyway.] (Arnel)

"If its isn't much, will you help me prepare the meals, Arne…?" (Charlotte)

"Yup." (Arnel)

"Great! Now, let's go to the kitchen." (Charlotte)

[I don't know why, but she seems quite excited for some reason…] (Arnel)
