In the middle of nowhere, there stood a single, big, castle made of brick. Dark envelopes the castle without a single source of light. The inside of it was vast with its beautiful interior. But there's no single living being that can be seen. Only a doll with variety decorating its corridor. When the floor shook, all the dolls lined up, making space at the center, as if waiting for someone to pass by.

With a shrieking sound, a single creature deep inside the castle passed. The creature has a big head that seems like a deer, there are so many eyes on its face. With each step that the creature took, the doll beside it shivered as if all the doll has a life inside it.

The creature itself walks through the corridor, passing some small rooms, and then vanishes at the end of the corridor after entering a large door. Inside the room, there's a lavish room with king sized bed with a frill decorating the rear. The creature halted, moving slowly to the large mirror beside the bed. Its eyes glow red, seeing the mirror in from of it.

On the mirror, there's an image displayed from there. Showing the creature a man and woman frolicking around with each other. Not long after that, a coarse sound can be heard throughout the entire castle. The sounds reverberate and scare all the creatures that heard it.

On the other side, Latina and Orion walk side to side passing the sea of woods. At first, Latina shivered when she took a step into the forest. But as time passed, the fear that can be looked at in her eyes disappeared. Walking hand to hand beside her is Orion, sometimes throwing a joke at her.

"Can't believe a hundred years person scared walking through the forest,...." said him.

Heard that, Latina can't restrain her emotion. With a flustered face, she said, "Wha-!"

"I'm not scared! It's just, well, um, trauma! Yes, a trauma!"

"What are you afraid of? Bear? You can fend it off with your spell right?"

"A witch's spell is sacred, you can't throw it willy-nilly!"

"Yes, yes, as you wish,...."

After answering that, a mischievous smile can be seen on his face. Without further ado, he releases his hand that gripped Latina's hand. Feeling that her hand lost its grip, she quickly grabbed his hand with two of her hands. With teary eyes, she said, "NO! Don't let it go!"

When she looked up, she can see a smug smile carved on Orion's face. Seeing that, she puffed her cheeks.

With a little smug, Orion said, "What?"

"!!!!!"

Along the way, she's sulking, puffing her cheeks, and ignoring all Orion's words. But her hand didn't lose its grip on Orion's hand. The only thing that can Orion do is apologize, but he still inserts a bit of teasing. Made Latina can't stop sulking.

Before Latina and Orion walk hand to hand through the woods. Orion already asked her to come with him to the village, but she always refused and didn't give him a reason. After begging her all the time, she finally agreed. In his heart, he only wants to ask her out because for hundred years Latina live in solitude.

When the first time she stepped into the woods, she seems afraid. Looking at that, Orion smells something is wrong but he tried to brush it off and make a joke about it.

After half a day of walking through the woods, the two of them finally arrive at the village. The sight that many people chatting with each other seems regular to Orion, but seeing Latina's eyes. Glittering with a nostalgic feeling, he decided to didn't mention anything about it and enjoy the moment with her.

"So, what do you feel after coming here?"

Latina fell silent, seeing that his partner is silent the whole time. Sometimes he takes a peek at her. She's lowering her head, deep in her thought.

"Dissatisfied?"

"Are you regretting that you came here?" Add him.

Hearing him say that, Latina turns her head to look at Orion's face.

"No! It's not like that, but...."

"But?"

She paused, but when she opened her mouth again. Orion cut her words and headed inside a certain store. When Orion pushed the door, a ringing bell can be heard. From inside, there's a single girl standing in front of the desk.

"Welcome," said her.

Knowing who the person that coming from the door, Sarah also waved her hand. But when she saw her regular coming in with the girl beside him hand in hand, her smile turned into a mischievous smile.

Orion noticed it, he feels something troublesome will happen but he can't do anything because this is the only store that puts a good price on the items that he sells. With a slight hesitant movement, he's coming closer.

"The usual?" Ask Sarah.

"....Yes"

Orion put the potion and scroll that he brings on the table after that Sarah put the pouch. While counting the inside, Sarah seems to begin to tease him.

"Such a lovey-dovey couple,..." said her.

Orion ignores her, with one hand he is continuing to confirm the money inside the pouch. Even if Orion and Latina's hands were still glued, Latina seemed didn't hear what Sarah said and kept wandering her eyes around the whole store.

"Say, why don't you introduce me to your wife?"

Orion halted, staring into Sarah's eyes, and said, "As I said, she's not my wife,"

"Well, your action tells otherwise,"

She's leaning toward the desk and using her hand to rest her head while pointing her eyes towards Orion's other hands and then back to Orion. When their eyes meet, Sarah put a smug smile on her face.

"...."

"Such a shy person you are, Orion," said her.

"Why not admit that she's your wife,"

"As I said, she not my-"

When Orion wants to explain it to her, his words are cut by Latina.

"Wife? Who?"

"It's you," said Sarah.

"Me?"

Sarah nodded, realizing what Sarah meant. Latina's ears turned red and cast her eyes downward. Seeing that, in Orion's mind he thought, 'Come on, you've just made the situation worse.'
