The sound of sobs echoed throughout the room. A girl clasped tightly onto her mother's limp hand motionless. The other two people were lying not far from there, on a wooden platform, in front of the ranks of people sitting watching them fighting each other acting.
The show of romance drama that is famous for draining tears managed to cut the hearts of its audience.
Upstairs, on one of the rows of balconies deliberately made for the best view, Ashley and Daryl sat side by side.
The farewell scene between the mother and child was quite disturbing to the male psyche there, making him choose to turn his gaze away while calming down for a moment. His eyes then stopped on the woman sitting beside him. The woman he knew had lost her mother. Not as Ashley, but as Ashelia.
Not shaky or a little tearful, Ashley just silently leaned on her left hand. Whether bored or thinking about something else, his eyes did not show any emotion.
Leaning back towards the stage Daryl said,
"Are you going to get mad if I say I want to see your tears?" Ask carefully.
Without moving her head, Ashley glanced at the man. Still continuing to look towards the stage, the man explained if Ashley was a very strong person in his eyes. Too strong to worry him.
"I think this is enough to make you touched."
Finished listening to his explanation, Ashley again put her gaze forward. He himself was not sure if there was anything in this world that could make him cry. The death of her mother, which surprised her, did not make her cry. So did the tragedy that struck him a few years ago. Perhaps, Anthony's death will still not make him cry.
No matter what, tears never came out of her eyes. It was as if the tear glands had never had them in the first place.
So how could this play possibly make her cry?
"The color from the beginning of the cave knows it's not real." Obviously Ashley.
His eyes widened, after saying that, his head slightly raised as if he had just realized something.
"Why? Not so say it?" Daryl asked after Ashley returned to face forward without saying anything.
"You want to say I'm very handsome but ashamed to admit it?"
Daryl tried to turn around to tease Ashley who used to bully him. However, without a second thought the woman immediately answered him with a 'yes' answer'. An answer that is too soon to be said 'has been considered'.
The man knew, the woman next to him was indeed just the origin of answering. But it still made him blush and unable to continue his intention.
At the same time outside the theater, a blond man that Alais suspected before, is also now around there. From a distance, he saw the man who then walked into a narrow alley between two buildings.
Intending to check the identity of the man, Alais follows him.
Slowly looking into the alley, he found no one inside. Enter the knight while placing his hand on the handle of his sword, ready to pull the weapon if needed.
Seeing a bend at the end of the alley, Alais predicted that the blonde man was hiding behind a wall and waiting for him to come. But wrongly, the man suddenly appeared from behind him, crouching and hiding behind a pile of wooden boxes.
Intending to make an ambush using a knife directed around Alais' neck, the man's efforts unfortunately failed.
When he saw the man's hand pass through his shoulder, Alais caught it and pulled it down. At the same time, his other hand had firmly gripped the blondie's shirt, and then slammed onto the ground.
Not wanting to let the man escape, Alais drew her sword and pointed the tip towards the person's neck.
"Who are you? Why follow Miss Ashelia?"
