Tangled By Fate

554 REGRET

"…They are finally being a responsible married couple.

"You will face trials too. This is the first step. Let her cool down first. You two are supposed to have dinner together. She will get hungry soon. Take her favorite meal to the room. You can have a private dinner. Due to hunger, her head might cool down. This is when you tell her what she misunderstood."

After getting a piece of warmup advice from her, Ovior stood up. "Thank you, Zinnia. I'll keep your advice in mind. I should ask the cook to make her favorite meal."

"Don't forget to check the documents I brought," Zinnia said.

"Okay." And then, he disappeared.

"Love is surely complicated," Zinnia murmured alone in the room. A faint smile hung on her lips.

-------

Dorothy came to the bedroom after having an unintentional fight with Ovior. She hid herself in the comforter and thought about what they talked about.

'How can he be so nonchalant about a woman's body? She… she is almost bare and you can nearly see her private parts. And the way… you can see her curves and body shape… it's so shameful… how can you say you are used to it? Just how much did you see a woman's body?'

The more she thought about it, the more she became angrier. The more she became angrier, the more she found it unfair.

'I just wanted to share my feelings. Why did he have to say something like that?'

She pondered more and more and then her stomach growled. She curled up and covered her stomach. She could feel the hunger burning her belly. It was hard to bear. It had been hours since she last ate something. The first thing she ate was a piece of bread and that kept her full for hours. 'It was a strange place,' she thought.

After talking to Arthur and Veronica, when Ovior took her away, he completely covered her with a magical cloak. She didn't know that it was to make her invisible. As a result, she saw no Elves. When he uncovered her, she was in front of a breathtaking view. It was the lake that could open the portal. He didn't say anything and she had no time to ask him. Her heart was filled with thoughts about how much Ovior and Arthur grew up and how it all happened without her realization.

Now that she thought about it, she realized she didn't know this adult Ovior much. That mere thought made her heart sink. With a disappointed heart, she opened her eyes and they landed on the gifts Ovior personally prepared for her. The dresses and jewelry were exactly how she liked them. She bit down her lower lip. 'No matter what it is, he still loves me. He wasn't wearing a wedding ring. That means something. He didn't get married. He waited for me. He waited for me to wake up. What he couldn't do before, he did it now. He can buy me clothes now and give me a place to stay. He still loves me. That's why he still remembers what style I like.'

As she thought about it, her heart settled down. And, her confidence came back. 'I should have listened to him. Why did I run away? Now he'll think that I act like a child.'

She started regretting her previous actions. She recalled Zinnia again and she frowned. She was wearing revealing clothes, nearly showing her body parts to everyone. The way she seductively talked; any man would fall for her. Now that Dorothy acted so immaturely, it was immature. Ovior would think if her as a child while Zinnia was a grown-up mature lady who helped him with work. Whereas Dorothy barely knew what to do in the tower. What if he fell for Zinnia's maturity and left Dorothy alone?

As the thought came to mind, her heart chilled. Her eyes widened just imagining it. Fear consumed her heart. 'What should I do? Should I apologize to him?'

She perambulated from one corner to the other corner of the bedroom. Her pace quickened as her heart panicked further.

'What if he doesn't forgive me? What should I do? What if he gets mad at me and avoids me?'

Her recently found confidence plunged in the mud. She felt like crying again.

'I should go to him. He didn't come after me when I ran out. I shouldn't have acted selfishly. Ii should have stayed until he finished speaking. I also told him not to work with her. They must work on something important. Since I argued with him, he could be mad…'

Knock! Knock!

As she was debating by herself, there were knocks on the door. Her heart jumped from the sudden sound.

She quickly walked towards the door and opened it. What waited for her was Ovior, whom she was anxious to meet, with a flying tray. "…"

Her heart wasn't prepared to see him so soon. She didn't know what to say. Her eyes landed on the flying tray beside him. The tray was filled with covered pots. She could smell something delicious. Growl~

Her stomach painfully cried out for the food. The sound was so depressing.

Dorothy, who was worried about how to act in front of him, became embarrassed.

"I… uh…." She stuttered.

"You must be starving," Ovior commented. Despite her worries, he sounded concerned. His bedroom door automatically opened wide. He quickly walked into the room and the tray gently sat on the table. After giving the tray directions to serve the meals for both of them, he looked at her.

Dorothy's eyes plastered on the tray as plates flew in front of her. They sat in front of the chairs. The knives, forks and spoons sat beside the plates. The lids of the pots opened one by one. She could see the dishes inside the pots.

"!!!"

The dishes took her by surprise. Her heart beat faster. They were all her favorite foods!

He remembered!
