Chapitre 29: The Next Day
I sat up and searched for my goddamn phone but I shouldn't have because my head felt like it's being pounded damn hard.
Whoever is calling, I wish he didn't know that I'm having a freaking hangover cause I'll be throwing some knives.
Damn hangover.
I wonder what had gotten into my mind that I drank so hard last night. I don't usually drink alcohol more than my tolerance level but last night's different.
I looked at the door when I heard the knocks, the ringing of my phone also stopped, and there entered Chelsea carrying a tray.
"How did we get home?" I asked her
"I drove us home. You and Jess passed out last night." She said
"And you and Lav?" I asked but she just smiled at me.
"Drink that hot water and that ibuprofen for your hangover first, then go down. Let's have breakfast together." She said before leaving my room.
What happened last night? I don't remember much.
I ran to my bathroom when I felt nauseated. I threw up and when I thought of the smell of alcohol I threw up again.
I washed and rinsed before leaving the bathroom. I saw what Chelsea brought so I drank it first while massaging my temples.
I went to the bathroom and took a long bath to ease my hangover then wore an oversized sweatshirt and a pair of denim short pants. I was combing my hair while walking down the stairs.
"Good Morning, Irene." They greeted me except for Jace who just looked at me
It seems that one only talks to Lavalee. He's too cold, though he's no match to Frost's cold attitude because the latter took his name so seriously, that even Winter, Lavalee's younger sister, took hers seriously.
I noticed that there are only a few guards today.
There are no bodyguards from Itaria, if I remember correctly that's the country where those foreign bodyguards came from as Lavalee told us.
"Morning," Jess said and sat down next to me
"Damn, damn hangover," Jess said so we looked at her
"Here," Chelsea said and slid a tray towards Jess
"Chelsea didn't bring yours?" I asked when I saw that the tray has hot water and ibuprofen, just like what Chelsea brought me earlier.
"She didn't or maybe I was already in the shower when she came." She answered while massaging her temple
"Good thing I didn't have to experience that," Chelsea commented while looking at us
"Because you didn't drink at all," Jess said and leaned on her chair.
"Did you go drinking last night?" Caspian asked us with wide eyes
"Obviously," Jess said and rolled her eyes in irritation
We ate in silence until a maid came in shivering. Chelsea sighed then stood up to walk towards the shivering maid.
"Please tell them not to go to the garden yet, okay?" Chelsea said calmly then went back to her seat and continued eating.
"Where is Lavalee?" I asked her she just pointed at the snowflake in the fridge and I understood what she meant.
Lavalee's with Frost, I wonder why though.
After we ate, we went to the living room. Jess is just there staring into nothing until I decided to sit beside her.
"I didn't do or say anything stupid, right?" she asked me
"Do you think I remember? We both passed out last night, bruh. " I said and leaned my head on the backrest couch
"Why did you get drunk, huh?" she asked so I raised an eyebrow at her
"You? Why did you get drunk?" I asked her and she stared at me
"Duh! Last night was the first time we went clubbing ever since we arrived here in Seryphil." She said as she stared at me
"Why didn't you tell us that you're going out?" Elijah asked me
"I told you before, you can't control us," I answered him
"But even so, Ms. Irene, it's still dangerous. You may get hurt." Ethan said
"As if," Jess said and snickered
I was about to answer when we heard a loud growl causing us to exchange glances.
"Chelsea!"
We expected the butlers to be on defense, but that's not what we got, instead, butlers have towels, food, and various toys.
We heard Chelsea laughing and we saw her with a baby tiger bathing. When she looked at us, she stood up and handed the hose to a butler.
"Why? Is there a problem?" she asked after approaching us
"Where did that come from?" Caspian asked
"Huh? Which?" she asked us in surprise
"The t-tiger," Ethan was a little nervous when he answered
"Ah, you mean Mnemosyne? She arrived yesterday according to what Lavalee told me." She replied with a shrug
"Where's Lavalee?" Jace asked
Wow, of all the things that Chelsea said, he only seems to have heard Lavalee's name.
"With her brother, Frost," Chelsea replied, and soon after we heard the roar of the young tiger.
"Coming, Mnemosyne," Chelsea laughed and returned the tiger to taking a bath.
"Want to join?" Chelsea asked us
"Sure," I answered and helped her bathe the tiger.
I was the one holding the hose while Chelsea was the one who soaped and tamed the tiger.
Jess was holding the towel while we're rinsing the tiger.
"Are you hungry, Mnemosyne?" Chelsea asked the small tiger while she's drying its fur.
"Why Mnemosyne?" I asked her while we're going to the stone tables.
"I don't know," She answered and we sat at the table.
"Lavalee, huh? What's that to her?" Jess asked while telling a maid to bring her juice
"Mnemosyne's her pet," Chelsea said and ordered a maid to bring her sushi and milk.
She was patting and caressing the little tiger on her lap.
"You want to hold her?" she asked me and raised Mnemosyne
"Uh, sure," I answered and she slowly gave the little tiger to me who on the other hand started roaring softly.
"Hi, Mnemosyne," I said and caressed its head it seemed calm
"Chelsea, Irene, Jess," We looked at Ethan
"A case has been handed to us, only Ethan will be left to look over you." Elijah said
"Okay," I said and they left while Ethan stood beside Chelsea
Suddenly, some words flashed on Chelsea's iPad screen.
"Living room?" Ethan asked because that's what was written on the screen of Chelsea's iPad.
"Did your iPad get a virus, Chelsea?" Ethan asked because Chelsea's screen turned black.
"No. Freia did that. " Chelsea said and we went to the living room
When we arrived in the living room, the TV screen has Freia's face flashed on it.
"Come on, Chelsea-chan, Jess-chan, Irene-chan," She greeted with a beaming smile
"Ohayo, Freia." We greeted her back she roamed her eyes on us and her forehead knotted and she tilted her head
"Where's Onee-chan?" she asked then looked at Ethan meticulously
"Eh? Who's he?" she asked again while looking at Ethan
"Freia," Winter's cold voice was heard then she appeared on the screen while being tugged by Freia.
"Hi, Winter," Chelsea greeted her
"Ohayo," She greeted back
"Onee-chan's not there," Freia said
I thought she was telling Winter but she was looking at us so it means she's talking to us
"She's with Nii-sama, right?" Winter asked and we nodded suddenly Freia smiled widely
"MNEMOSYNE!" she said enthusiastically while waving her hand
"You know her, Freia?" I asked her
"Of course, Irene-chan! Mnemosyne's onee-chan Flame's pet." She replied
"So'ka, Flame-chan has her." Winter said while looking at Mnemosyne
"Naze denwa shitano , Freia?" Chelsea asked
At first, Freia seemed confused but them she smiled again.
"I asked nii-sama if I could go there. He agreed so I want to tell you." Freia said then her gaze landed to Ethan again
"Is he Chelsea-chan's guy?" She asked so innocently
"Nani? Shiru." Chelsea replied averting her gaze
"Eh? Waeandwaeyo?" Freia asked making all of us chuckle
"It isn't time for us to engage in a relationship, Freia," Jess replied
At first, Freia seemed to look like she was about to say something but when she looked at Jess she pouted.
"What's his name then?" she asked obviously still not letting go of the topic
"Ask him yourself," Jess said so Freia looked at Ethan from the screen
"Hello, nii-san! What's your name?" she asked smiling
"Delta Ethan Gonzales, the assigned bodyguard of Ms. Chelsea Lim," Ethan said while scratching the back of his head
"Bodyguard? But they can defeat the bad guys themselves." Freia seemed confused
"Summer Freia," Winter warned Freia, the latter seemed to contradict but then she nodded her head before beaming a smile again.
"Mnemosyne's growing big but my Ryu is bigger! I want them to get married and have 13 cubs." Freia said while looking at Mnemosyne
"13 cubs?" I asked her unsure
"Yes. One for Jess-chan, for Irene-chan, for Chelsea-chan, one for Autumn, one for Spring, one for Aqualyn, one for Nii-sama, one for nii-san, one for Winter-chan, one for Mia-chan too!" she beamed
"Isn't thirteen too much?" Chelsea asked
"A-ni. It might also not be enough for everyone's children. I want your future kids to play with them too." she said
"That's too early to think of," Jess said and Freia nodded before shaking her head
Huh? I didn't get her reply.
"I miss all of you. When will you visit?" She asked and we laughed because she was already hugging Winter's arm
"Let go, Freia," Winter chastised coldly making Freia pout more
"Irene-chan, Jess-chan, Chelsea-chan." She called us while pouting
"Yes, Freia?" I replied
"Please don't let my onee-chan get cold too, huh? Nii-sama, nii-chan, and Winter-chan are already walking ice blocks." She requested making us chuckled
"Hai! Hai!" we replied and she smiled more making her eyes disappear
She's so cute.
"Okay! Sayonara! " she said and waved her hand
"Sayonara, hime," We replied then hanged up
Suddenly, the maid came and put the juice and sushi on the table. The milk is in a small bowl, probably for Mnemosyne.
"Here, girl," Chelsea said and placed the sushi using wooden chopsticks
"Can she eat that?" Ethan asked
"Yes, this is what Lavalee feeds Mnemosyne." Chelsea replied
