Obey Me - chapter 144(END)
[Right. The location is not good]
“That’s not the problem!”
[Isn’t it?]
“That…”
No? It wouldn’t matter if she was at home? Kyrie’s brain stopped working. But when she saw Nathaniel smiling, she belatedly screamed in a low voice.
“That’s not what’s important right now!”
[You are not falling for it]
“I can’t pass! We need to cover the time and place!”
Nathaniel summoned his cane and stood.
[But you looked so innocent]
“Are you saying it’s my fault?”
[I want to tease you.]
“Do you really want to tease me?”
[I held it in]
“You endured it well!”
[Because you said that…….]
Nathaniel looked abominably coy. Kyrie touched her forehead.
“Anyway, no shadows.”
[This puppy is very sad]
Kyrie’s face heated up again.
Nathaniel looked up at the sky and shook off his feelings, and smiled maturely. Of course, he looked a little discouraged.
[Kidding. No matter how urgent you are, there’s an order in your work.]
“I wasn’t in a hurry.”
[I was in a hurry]]
“Can you please not be so honest?”
[It will be bad for your friends]
“It’s my friend’s wedding…….”
[That’s why I let you slide]
Nathaniel lightly spilled his words and stretched his arms toward Kyrie. When Kyrie flinched, he smiled sweetly as if she were lovely and straightened her hair.
[Thinking about it, the most important thing is still remaining.]
After returning from Maria’s wedding, Nathaniel became a little strange. When she went to the study because she couldn’t see him all day, the window seat where he always sat was empty. Of course, when Kyrie shouted his name loudly, she suddenly appeared somewhere, but it was suspicious.
“What are you decorating?”
He used to evade Kyrie’s question by staring into her eyes and forcing his opponent to turn her head at the sight of his excessive beauty.
Again today, as Nathaniel was not seen so much, Kyrie, who was wandering in search, ran into Dobbie in the tableware management room.
“Dobbie. Didn’t you see Nataniel?”
“Mr. Nathaniel has been in the garden since the morning.”
“Garden?”
Nathaniel and the garden don’t match very well. The green color of the garden and all kinds of greenery was usually a feeling of dying when Nathaniel was sandwiched between them.
“What’s going on? Suddenly…….”
Kyrie tilted her head. Then she raised her eyebrows when she saw Debbie’s good smile.
“You know something, don’t you?”
Dobbie opened her eyes a little wide over the glasses.
“How did you know?”
“Social circles are all about wits. But I’m sure because of that answer just now. What’s going on?”
“Oh, my!”
Dobbie burst into laughter.
“The old man has no choice. But I can’t tell you. Mr. Nathaniel told me to keep it a secret.”
“Nathaniel?”
“Yes.”
Kyrie opened her eyes wide and nodded lightly.
“Okay. Please take care of it.”
“Aren’t you curious?”
“It’s not polite to ask to dig up what he has hidden. He is not a man to do nonsense anywhere.”
Kyrie, who spoke lightly, turned around. Contrary to what she said, she was feeling weak anxiety recently.
‘Signal…..Was it not enough?’
Kyrie was unfamiliar with thinking like that, so she grabbed her hand for no reason.
There was a marked change in the behavior of unpaid Nathaniel. He would always sit next to Kyrie until she fell asleep, but unlike before, he used his time to look up at the sky. He bought something from the mansion and saw him talking to the gardener for quite a while.
In addition, there were several changes, but Kyrie pretended not to know. His hand touching Kyrie’s forehead, lying in a dazed state, was still full of warm affection.
Then it was the day after the exceptionally sunny day continued for two whole days. Nathaniel approached Kyrie, who was reading MarryAnne’s letter in the office.
[Kyrie.]
When she raised her head, Nathaniel was looking at her with a sweet smile as if pouring out freshness from head to toe. Kyrie put down the letter with a smile.
“Are you done with the secrecy?”
[It’s time to finish. Does my lady have time to spend with me?]
“Of course, my knight asks for it, so I have to give it to you.”
Nathaniel smiled as if melting the surroundings and reached out his hand.
“Do I have to grab it?”
[Yes]
If he just wanted to grab it, he would have said it. If that’s not the case, it must mean there’s a reason.
Kyrie held hands silently. The two went out to the garden clenching their hands like children. It was a garden where Nathaniel frequently visited recently and banned people from entering.
Kyrie, who stepped on the landscape paving stones and went through the bushes, reached a small vacant lot and found a basin. It wasn’t there before. Nathaniel quietly guided speechless Kyrie to the front of the basin.
“Pretty…”
The body was silver, and it was a beautiful cabinet with a mother-of-pearl on the floor. It was full of water inside. The clear and transparent water passing through the midday sunlight occasionally fluttered in the wind. Kyrie looked blankly at the sky reflected in the water, as people usually do when looking at the sky or the sea.
‘The weather has been nice these days, so I wanted to take a walk together. Will tomorrow be a good day?’
While she was thinking about that. Outside her field of view, Nathaniel’s hand moved.
“……?”
He carefully placed a Gardenia leaf on the water.
Kyrie blinked stupidly and looked at it. It was a leaf that looked like a picture. It is good enough to give as a gift to someone after putting it between books and drying it.
Next to her, Nathaniel whispered.
[Emerald pear]
(T/N: he transformed a leaf into an emerald stone)
Kyrie’s lips are open.
“I didn’t know you were out in the garden the whole time.”
[I picked it up myself.]
“Oh.”
It wasn’t difficult for Nathaniel to search the whole garden and find the prettiest leaves for her. Her heart went blank. He could have used his abilities or people.
Nathaniel smiled faintly and flicked his finger. A very small snowflake began to fall over the round ledge. It was never a large amount. Just to that extent that it reflects off the sunlight and looks like a jewel.
[Rain of jewels]
“Rain of jewels.”
(T/N: he converted snow to jewels)
The two whispered at the same time.
Kyrie’s mood is now fluffy like cotton candy. There was only one left. She looked up and smiled gently at Nataniel.
With that smile as a signal, time began to rewind quickly.
The falling leaves went back to the stem, the wings of the birds headed to the nest, and clouds appeared and disappeared quickly. Kyrie looked up and looked up at the sky.
(T/N: he fast-forwarded the time, as you know he can control time)
The midday sun set, and the twilight of dawn covered the sky. Even that darkened, the moon, stars, and the Milky Way poured into view. Did a meteor fall last night? Kyrie saw shooting stars trace a nail-cut trajectory, returning to the starting point of the night sky.
With everything changing in seconds, only Nathaniel, standing next to her, stared at Kyrie with silent eyes as if he were familiar with it. When she gave strength to his hand, Nathaniel also held hands more strongly. Just in case she misses it. Or as if not to be anxious.
The weather has been exceptionally fine for days, so sunlight, sky, clouds, morning dew, and all the beautiful things in the world have turned into more dramatic colors.
Still, she thought it was Nathaniel himself who was really beautiful. For someone other than him, he looked up at the sky to find the prettiest sunset, and went out to the garden to choose the most beautiful leaves. It was something he couldn’t do without thinking about someone every hour and every moment of every day. How can that heart not be lovely?
Finally, through the rainbow-colored twilight, a brilliant golden sunset lay in the sky. The sky without a single cloud was such a beautiful amber color. Time stopped only then.
Kyrie bowed her head and sighed unconsciously at the sight unfolded in front of her eyes. The sunset filled in the sky shone golden in the water contained in the accompanying water.
[Golden River.]
(T/N: he converted the river reflecting golden colour from the sun into gold)
Nathaniel whispered.
A ring that she had never seen before was on the leaves of a Gardenia plant.
The emerald boat with the ring on it was rained on by jewels, and slowly circled around the lake of gold before reaching Kyrie.
Nathaniel took the ring from the leaf, held it, and lifted Kyrie’s hand. Blue eyes stared at Kyrie as if asking for permission. He began to speak softly.
[I don’t think language is such an efficient means of communication, but now there seems to be no other way]
Kyrie looked at Nataniel silently.
[Kyrie, I’ll probably need a long way to die. And now I’m saying I want to dedicate all that time to you. Because]
Nathaniel paused for a moment. He smiled in peace, capturing Kyrie, who fully looked at him.
[Because I like you.]
For an instant, the world seemed to have gone into a vacuum. His long eyelashes and half-folded, relaxed eyes were dizzyingly white and clear. Kyrie’s mind also became dizzy. His heart throbbed on her palm with a knife. The heart seemed to say this,
You can stab me anytime. Because I like you.
(T/N: Nathaniel made Kyrie a kind of hallucinate(?) And made her see this)
It was a confession that did not take care of himself to the point where even Kyrie was afraid. His simplicity is more fatal than his strength.
She hated those who had turned a blind eye to Nataniel so far. Without any prejudice, you can see it if you look a little closely.
A drop of tears rolled over her cheek. Kyrie smiled as she wiped away her tears with empty hands.
“You know there’s no second chance, right?”
[Of course]
Kyrie reached out her hand. Nathaniel carefully put a ring on Kyrie’s finger.
The ring fit into Kyrie’s fourth finger. In the ring of platinum, a diamond neatly climbed on it glistened under the sunset. She decided to keep it a secret that the man’s glance at her complexion felt more beautiful than the diamond.
“It’s pretty. Thank you.”
When Kyrie smiled brightly, Nathaniel slightly bowed his head. Then, he blinked with a face hoping for something without saying a word.
She can pretend she doesn’t know, but it’s against the law to do so after receiving the ring. Kyrie kissed Nathaniel’s cheek without a choice. Nathaniel straightened his posture again with a shallow sigh, not knowing whether it was a sigh or a breath.
[Rather than cheeks…….]
“Be quiet.”
[Of course. Who are you talking about?]
The two laughed face to face. Kyrie looked down again and again because the metal on her finger was unfamiliar. She was dying of Nathaniel’s cuteness, but she didn’t notice how to digest it, she looked at him with the same eyes.
[Do you like it?]
“Of course. Is this what you said at Maria’s wedding?”
[I have to be in order so that my Kyrie can’t run away]
“Even so, how did you come up with this idea?”
Kyrie burst into laughter at the thought of just coming to mind.
“To be honest, I thought you’d really turn the river into gold.”
(T/N: this naive woman thought Nathaniel was reflecting gold colour on the river and it’s not gold… But girl it’s really gold)
[Oh]
With a short exclamation, Nathaniel immediately looked anxiously bright.
[So I actually prepared that, too]
“What?”
Nathaniel snapped his fingers. Then, as if enchanted by the loud sound of water, Kyrie turned her head towards the river next to the garden. Her face soon went blank.
In the river that was obscured by a cliff…A very huge emerald sailing boat was sliding down. Everything from the mast to the bottom of the boat was an extremely transparent emerald. The water that came in contact with the boat gleamed excessively in golden color. Just in time, clouds began to gather around the mansion, and jewels began to fall like hail from the sky.
“Help me!”
“Argh!”
“C, crazy! What’s this?”
“…….”
Kyrie closed her eyes as she heard the screams of people coming from the mansion.
That’s right. He’s this kind of guy. Why do I forget this every day?
Nathaniel naturally opened his mouth.
[It’s fun, right?]
“It’s not fun!”
