The Heaven Kingdom's
THK—Like Koala

...The Heaven Kingdoms...

...👑...

Since morning blind, I have been busy with activities to help the palace servants to distribute assistance to the surrounding residents. If yesterday the help in the form of food then today the help is in the form of clothing needs.

As per the arrangement, they lined up in long queues to get their respective parts.

I realize since yesterday I have been the center of attention of the people here, more precisely my two eyeballs of different colors is what concerns them.

I even forgot to count the number of those who had asked me directly.

“Your eyeball is beautiful miss.”

“Why can you have a different color eyeball like that miss?”

Many more such questions and statements, I patiently responded to them with a sweet smile. Didn't answer, because honestly I don't know why I didn't! More precisely this Roseanne character has different eyeballs like this.

The only temporary answer I have is, everything in this fantasy world is the imagination of the author. Why are his eyes like this? Of course because the writer who wants his character like this.

It was almost afternoon and I was done with my work, so before the afternoon I wanted to stock up on my drinking water for the next few days.

For the first day the servant that the King brought was still willing to help to fetch water, but for today I have to be independent because helping me is not their duty. That's what that guy made me.

I went back to the tent, took some of my necessities. Because I intend to all bathe in the river later really the water in the public bath is very dirty, it is not possible for me to use a bath.

After I wrapped the dress and other necessities I also walked out the tent, wanted to say goodbye to Alexander but since last night I no longer see his whereabouts everywhere. After all, he wouldn't care what I did.

I've been asking a lot of things about this place including the road to the forest to find the source of the drinking water river, even though the citizens warned me not to go alone because they said it was dangerous but I had no other choice.

There were no servants or bodyguards by my side that I could take with me.

I passed the path to the forest, counting every step I took without paying attention to the surrounding places.

While being alone like this I imagined my life before her, Delia.

What was that friend doing when I wasn't around?

Hmh! She must be happy, because there was no need to listen to my nagging every day. No one would ask him to wash his old coffee mug or clean the room.

You must be happy, right, Delia?

Your vows are heard in the sky and—here I am without knowing how to get out.

It felt so claustrophobic when I was in a place I didn't even know, there was nothing I knew and they were all always staring at me low.

Even I was punished the first day I woke up in this world.

This is my stupidity that does not remember well the storyline of the novel The Heaven Kingdom, if I read it sincerely and enjoy the plot like other readers would be very helpful to me now.

At least the novel story that I can make a clue to face my life here.

“What are you doing?”

As the cold voice blew away my daydream, I looked up and found Alexander standing not far from me. What's he doing here and why I didn't realize his arrival.

And—what now will he aim at me with an arrow in his hand?

He's really going to kill me now, but I've been trying to avoid him for days, not only because I was offended by her remarks a few days ago but also because I didn't want to get involved with her much.

“You want to kill me?”

My voice trembled in agony, he still held his bow in line straight at me.

“Be quiet!”

Whisper it slowly.

I nodded, is this the end of my life?

Dying in the hands of those who hate me, let me surrender.

I closed my eyes in the next second I felt the wind pass through my left cheek, which I guessed was the arrow that Alexander released.

I realized when I heard a groan of pain from behind and when I turned around I was a tiger lying helpless two steps behind me.

Bukk

“Stand!”

I resigned when my arm was pulled by her.

“You saved me?”

I stared at her pushyly, for whatever sake! my tears just fell.

“How dare you enter the forest alone!”

His voice rose, he shouted right in front of my face.

”I...aku..just want to take drinking water”.

My great-granddaughter is scared, her face is so scary.

“You can bring one of the bodyguards I brought right!!”

I was still in shock with what just happened my body was still shaking in fear plus Alexander's clasping made my cry even louder.

*“Hiikss* hikss I just want to take a drink of water”

With the rest of my strength I was still trying to defend myself.

She kept her bow on her back, after which she grabbed my frail body for her to carry.

“Be quiet, your voice can lure another wild beast”

Hearing that I immediately forced my mouth shut, trying to shed my tears and calm down.

“Where are you?”

My great-grandson is slow.

“Didn't you want to take drinking water?”

Ask the sarcasm.

“No! No, just take me to the tent. I wouldn't be anything if I didn't drink for days”

Goddamnit! I was afraid of meeting a beast again!

“Really? Then go home by yourself, because my destination wants to go to the river”

Just now he was about to lower me from his sling I first put my hand on his neck.

“Ja..no, I'm afraid”.

My whisper slowly in her.

“You can be scared too hm?”

Anyone would be afraid if they met a beast like that, unless I had five lives I wouldn't be that scared.

“Down, I can't carry you until the river breaks my hand”

“Not going, I'm light really. As light as sheep's fleece”

whoop! He returned my words on the train.

“The hair of a thousand sheep you mean?”

If I don't need her protection, I want to sew her spicy mouth.

She doesn't know what, women are very sensitive when it comes to weight.

“Am I that heavy? Then I help ease your burden”

At first he carried me with his hands between my neck and the folds of my knees, such a romantic sling would indeed be heavy.

So I got down from her sling and jumped up a bit draping both my arms around her neck and my legs were coiled strong around her waist.

“What is light?”

My whisper next to his neck.

She was silent for a while before answering “Eekkhmm” She throats hoarse “You're like koala”

“Yes, I'm a koala and you're his tree”
