Mystic Illusion Chapter 7
"..." = talking '...' = thinking
*...*= telepathy/mind
[Late Afternoon] [Italy- Verona]
Cool air sent shivers down Cecilia's spine as she wrapped her arms around her shoulders, hoping that'll give her more warmth.
She stepped onto the balcony and looked down at the deserted street, no one is walking around. It feels deadly around here, but definitely one of the most beautiful yet heart-breaking scenes in Verona, perhaps even the entire Italy itself.
'Romeo stood underneath here, and Juliet was standing in my position right now.' She thought as she sighed and looked out towards the misty ocean.
She had taken part in the movie 'Romeo and Juliet', and of course she was Juliet. Ryan.... Ryan was Romeo, she was so into the script and the movie, it almost felt real. Tragic stories are heart-breaking, yet sadly beautiful.
With another sigh, she felt a pair of arms around her waist, gently pulling her back a bit. Leaning onto the owner of the pair of arms, she dropped her own arms and placed them onto the arms that encircled her waist.
The two of them stood in silence, letting their thoughts run freely before Cecilia spoke up.
"Have you read 'Romeo and Juliet'?" She asked, expecting to hear a 'no' from him, but his answer surprised her.
"Yeah, I've read it." He said, and rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"What's wrong?" She said, this time turning her head so she could take a better look at him.
"My grandfather forced me to read it. I hated it, sappy love story!" He snorted and closed his eyes.
Cecilia smiled helplessly at him and then turned towards the misty ocean again.
"I loved it... and I had participated in the movie that came out a few years ago." She said softly. There's no need to yell in this circumstance.
Kai waited for her to continue, as he laid his head onto her right shoulder and looked at the setting sun.
"It was such a beautiful story... I cried when I first read it." Sighing, she closed her eyes and leaned back onto him completely. "I wish I could have someone love me like how Romeo loved Juliet." She said softly, letting hereslf drown into the movie again.
She felt Kai's arms lossened up a bit, and she turned her head to look into his eyes. He looked at her with slightly narrowed eyes.
"You wish for me to die for you to prove... your point?" He asked, slightly confused.
She smiled softly, the soft sunlight and her beauty made her look like an Angel from above.
She raised her right hand and put it on his cheek, and looked at him sincerely.
"Kai, I will never wish for you to die. If there is ever a circumstance where you have to sacrifice your life to save mine, just leave me to be. Don't sacrifice your life... it's not worth it." She said, then leaned in closer. "I never ever want anything bad to happen to you."
Kai looked into her eyes, letting himself lean into her small and soft hand. He saw sincerity in her eyes.
[Flashback]
Ryan is the guy that she loved... and still loves.
[End of Flashback]
His eyes became full of emotions for a split second and returned to normal, emotionless.
'Does she... still love Ryan?' The question silently popped into his mind, but they never broke their eye contact.
As if sensing his unsureness, her smiled deepened.
"Selo fidi di, il mio cuore soltanto appartiene a voi. Ci sarà nessun e niente che si levi in piedi nel nostro senso." She said softly and quietly in Italian and looked at him.
She does not know if he understood it or not, his face and eyes showed nothing. Turning around half way, she stood on her tipped toes and lightly pressed her lips to his, he closed his eyes and they drown themselves in the kiss.
Cool wind blew by again, Cecilia shivered lightly in Kai's arms. He broke the kiss and frowned lightly.
"We should go now."
Cecilia nodded as Kai turned around and walked inside the room. Cecilia turned her head and looked at the ocean again.
'Rest in peace Romeo and Juliet.'
With that, she turned and walked into the room as well. Her driver approached her immediately.
"Miss." He said and bowed lightly to her. She stopped and looked at him curiously.
"Yes?"
"A note was sent to you from a servant." He said, handing her a piece of paper. She took it and surprise shown on her face as she scaned it with her eyes. After a second, she looked up at her driver and smiled.
"Thanks John, we can go now."
John nodded and walked after her, existing the house.
[Night- Restaurant]
Cecilia walked in and a familiar manager approached her immediately, all smiles.
"Good evening Miss Cecilia."
He said bowing a bit, she smiled and nodded at him.
"Is Ryan here yet?" She asked, while looking around, seeing no sign of Ryan.
He smiled and nodded, turning a bit, he pointed to a private room.
"Yes, Mr. Ryan has been waiting for your prescence. He has already reserved a private room so no one shall interrupt. Allow me to guide the way." He said, while walking a bit behind from Cecilia.
[Private Room]
Cecilia sat across from Ryan, her hands cupped around her tea cup. None of them had spoke yet, Ryan picked up his head and looked at Cecilia.
"You look lovely tonight."
Cecilia looked at him through her lashes and gave him a soft smile. Ryan sighed and folded his hands on the table.
"I'm going to get to the point. I need help." He said and then sighed.
She looked up at him, and slightly raised one of her eyebrows.
"I need.... money." He said quietly, almost as if he's ashamed of himself.
She starred at him for a moment before dropping her gaze to her cup. "Why?" She asked softly.
He looked at her and she looked at him, then she understood. Closing her eyes, she sighed as well.
"I thought I told to stop gambling a long time ago."
Ryan ran a hand through his hair and leaned back onto his chair. "I know... but it's not that easy."
He said, and once again, they were silent. Finally, Cecilia opened up her eyes and looked at him.
"How much."
Ryan leaned forward again, and raised 1 finger. Cecilia frowned.
"One thousand?"
Head shakes, and Ryan sighed.
"One billion."
Cecilia's frown deepened immediately and starred at him unbelievably. He sighed and looked sad, pain showed in his eyes.
"I know it's a lot to ask of you. But... you are the only one that can help me right now, you are the richest person in N.A. One billion for you... is like 1 thousandth.... no 1 millionth of your money. Please... I really need it." He said, almost begging her.
She looked at him, then tilted her head, causing her silver to slid over to her right shoulder.
"Ryan... when we went out before, and then you broke up with me..."
"I'm sorry." He said immediately, cutting her off. She looked at him.
"I'm sorry... but you know how Jen is! She's jealous of you, and my family wants me to marry Jen. So, she came up with this plan that I'll first go out with you, then use up most of your money, then dump you. I had to do it, I had no other choice!" He said, explaining.
Cecilia looked at him, wanting to believe him. Actually, half of her already believed him, but another half is still bitter over what happened. She regarded him intensely and then took out her cell phone.
"Good evening Mark, it's Cecilia."
She paused, and waited for Mark to say something.
"Transfer 1 billion dollars to Ryan's account please."
Another pause.
"Thank you, and good night."
With that she flipped her cell phone shut and looked at a grateful Ryan.
"Cecilia... I know I could count on you!"
Cecilia just took a sip of her tea and remained silent.
[Hotel]
Hiura opened her eyes lazily when she heard someone open a bedroom door, Kai walked out towards the balcony. She smiled to herself and tilted her head.
"Why are you alone? Where's Lia?"
Kai stopped and glanced at her, before turning around again.
"Out."
Hiura snorted and turned her gaze to Lithy and Thory.
"Right... she probably dumped you, because you are no good for her!"
Kai turned towards her and narrowed her eyes, she took her eyes off of the two little girls and starred back. After a moment, Kai scowled and walked away. Hiura smiled to herself, then the smile wore away as her attention turned back towards Thory again.
'Something's definitely wrong with her. I can sense trouble coming up.'
