Chapter 26: Chapter 26
After a few more days, she realized Frahisto was always heading to the market. If it does not leave at night, it leaves in the morning. She was intrigued as to what he was doing or why he was in their locale, but she didn't want to cross the man's border. Even if it's difficult to question him why he always disappears at night.
She occasionally observes him chatting to someone in his room, but there is no way for the home to have a wifi connection. They don't have wifi, do they? She was concerned that the man was conversing with a ghost. With Frahisto's charisma, it's probable that the spirits will fall in love with him. 'Oh my God!' But never mind.
So she observed Frahisto leave again that night. He was dressed in a dark suit and shirt. She was tense. It appears to be completely hypnotized by fairies! She swiftly followed the young man, hoping he wouldn't notice her. Because she was aware of the man's keen senses, Odessa exercised extreme caution when moving and following him. She can see where Frahisto is walking because of the moon.
If she detects a fairy attempting to take Frahisto, she will sprinkle salt on it and put on Frahisto necklace given to her by her father to ward off the fairies! She retrieved it from the pocket of her dress. She quietly walked until she arrived at the forbidden area, which was encircled by a high fence and had a dense forest in the midst.
Her intuition was correct! The fairies in that forest had bewitched the man she desired! She considered following him into the woods. It is said to be haunted by ghosts and fairies. As a result, a 'No Trespassing' sign has been put.
What does it matter? She followed the man with her brow raised, never taking her gaze away from him. She must pursue him and apprehend him. She will not let anything happen to him. When she entered the woods, Frahisto suddenly vanished. No! What happened!? She wanted to scream, but terror stopped her.
"F-frahisto?" her voice trembled with anxiousness and fear. Where did it go? She was pretty sure she didn't look away. Frahisto has just disappeared without a trace!
She wanted to cry since Frahisto was nowhere to be found Her locals claim that there are ghosts and monsters in this forest. Before she could scream, someone grabbed her up and covered her mouth. She just feared for her life, but when she heard Frahisto's voice, she immediately calmed down.
"What are you doing here?" it asked nearly in hushed tones. They were hiding behind a large tree.
"Because I thought..."
"What?"
"A fairy deluded you, so I followed you here," she explained the most.
Instead of being angry, he chuckled softly. It also loosened its grip on her waist, causing her to gasp.
"All right, let's go home."
"But haven't you been abducted by a fairy or a ghost? I have a necklace here to guard off—"
"No."
She bit her lower lip in embarrassment. She continued to think... She was about to be attacked by terror, but what was Frahisto doing in the forbidden place? Frahisto drew her away from the area while holding her hand before she could question.
SINCE Frahisto and her held hands that night, drowsiness didn't bother her when she went to bed. The effect of the man's impact on her rocked her heart. She'd court him if he hadn't just married someone else. She giggled at the thought. It was a good thing Frahisto was never stolen by fairies, for she would have cried hysterically if he had been. What a waste of his looks if only the fairies and ghost would enjoy and she will not. She laughed for a while at the thought.
When she awoke the next day, it was midday. She dashed outside! Oh, my God! She dozed off at dawn, remembering Frahisto's handsome face and the two of them holding hands. Who wouldn't be ecstatic about that?
But then she realised she hadn't applied powder or lipstick yet, and her hair was blowing in the wind... She promptly returned to her room and combed her hair. Add a pinch of powder and red lipstick to the lips. She smiled every time she looked in the mirror and realized how lovely she was. It's like 'I woke up like this,' which is appropriate for her captions.
Oh my goodness! I have to cook!
She bolted out her room, but became frozen as she lost her balance. When did they get a wall in their house?!
"Hey!"
"Huh?" Only then did Odessa realize Frahisto was standing in front of her, holding her waist so she wouldn't fall over. Her heart quiver as a result of his contact, but she quickly drew herself away. "S-sorry..." she apologized, looking down.
When he heard he chuckled, she looked up, surprised, and asked, "W-why?"
"What happened— what happened to your face?"
Odessa reached out and touched her cheek. Is there something wrong with her? Isn't she applying baby powder to her face? He grabbed her hand as she was going to run back into the room, grimacing.
"We're going to eat."
"B-but..." She blushed and covered her cheek with one hand.
It sighed and removed her hand, as well as getting rid of powder on her face. She looked as if she had melted from embarrassment. "It's too white. You seem to be dead. Even your lipstick is slanted." To remove the existing lipstick, he gently brushed his thumb along the border of her lip. "All right, let's go..." He first turned away when she had been stripped of her dignity.
In those moments, she wished to be devoured by the ground. Why was her lipstick smudging her lips? She went downstairs, embarrassed. She might have stayed in her room all day if her father hadn't called.
"I'll be back in Manila in two days."
Odessa stopped to taste the delectable meals prepared by Frahisto. It was really good and looked like there's a party with the amount of food the man cooked, but that's because he's heading home, so he cooked a lot. She bit her lip as she stared at him, and her innocent heart ached.
"Have you completed your mission in this place, Hijo?"
He nodded but didn't look at her. Frahisto glances at the meal, and he doesn't even notice that she's losing her appetite.
"W-will you be returning soon? Will you come back?" she inquired softly. It was hardly out of her mouth.
"Not any longer."
She appeared to want to cry but did not. In answer, she simply smiled and attacked the food seriously. She didn't like what he was cooking any longer. There is no taste at all! There is a lack of salt and ingredients. Pwe! She stood up and inform her father to take the laundry to the brook.
She's in pain!
She was lamentably doing laundry by herself in the river. She believes Farhisto will depart and she will miss him, despite the fact that he is married. Hay! She was gasping for air. She emphasized, 'don't think about him, just do the laundry, otherwise she'll be stacked high with laundry.'
"Odessa..."
When Frahisto came next to her, she almost yelled in surprise. She hadn't even noticed him coming up behind her.
"I'm sorry for surprising you."
She did not respond. She returned her focus to the laundry. Why else would he talks to her? Eh, he'll leave as well; it's best if they don't talk anymore and don't feel close to her.
Frahisto moved away from her. He walked down since there was a rock blocking her way, and it appeared that he was going to take a bath in the deep side of the stream. She, on the other hand, took the cleaning of her Father's dirty clothes quite seriously. She was upset with herself; she couldn't understand why she liked the man despite the fact that he was married! She slammed the dirty clothing on the rock with a frown. She's in love... Her fragile heart has been captivated by a married man!
"Hey there, girl!"
She turned to see who was calling her name. Tina is her friend, and her grin has almost reached her ears. Creepy! Nonetheless, she smiled and waved at her friend. Tina, like her, had a crush on Frahisto, but she was devastated when she learned that he was married.
"Are you going to wash the laundry?"
"Of course not! In fact, I came here to collect coconuts and, of course, do laundry. You're insane!”
"Amazing ah!" She exclaimed, laughing at her uncontrolled mouth.
"I know, right?" she said as she lowered the basin with a load of clothes beside her.
"Myra-e endorser?"
They were both laughing at their own antics. For a little while, she forgot about the man who was bathing in front of her, behind a large block of rock. While joyfully doing laundry, the two of them conversed. Because they are both vocal about what they can talk about while they are together.
"How's your cabbage coming along?" Tina means about her big breast.
"Both healthy. Crazy! How's your watermelon doing? ”
Tina smacked her arm and giggled. “Crazy! The watermelon is excessively large. I believe that is due to my bean size." As she stroked her chest, she winced. "It's far too small for me. That's not right!" It suddenly pressed into her breast.
"Tina!" she said, laughing as she sprayed her with water.
"But don't worry, Odessa," she laughed as she sniffed, "I'll flirt with a handsome man and he'll become mine, and I'll give my body to him!"
“Crazy! We are ladies; don't degrade yourself in front of guys. That's all we have to do is type in a subdued manner. Our bodies must be given to our spouse. Allowing ourselves to be liberated is not a good thing.”
She locked her gaze on her and sprayed her with water from the river. "Yes, your Majesty.
"It's just Tina, never open your legs to men right away. Crush and fall in love is fine; remember, nothing is lost on the man, but everything is lost on the woman once she give him everything."
"Yes! I'm not going to open up right immediately, I'm just kidding." Laugh again. "However, what if someone as attractive as Frahisto—"
"No exception, Tina," she said, her stare deepening. "Attractive or not. Never, ever, ever lower yourself! " She sprayed it with water as well.
"I'm not in the mood for a bath! Goddess Elairon, put a stop to it!" It screams and attempts to flee.
When Tina said her whole name, she burst out laughing. She's the Goddess with a face that doesn't match her body. 'Her beauty isn't divine, but rather tremendous.' When she saw her two African catfish-looking suitors again, they just stopped at the two of them. They became quiet and returned their attention to the laundry.
"Hello, Tina!"
"How are you doing, Odessa, my love?"
They smirked and rolled their eyes at the two African catfish. They're scumbag who thinks they're handsome, but they don't appear to have had a bowel movement in a year. Tina and her resumed talking as if no African catfish had been spotted.
"How come they two are acting? Huh? You, Odessa, in particular! I'm sure you enjoy my company!” She was abruptly snatched by someone who had previously mistreated her at home."You'll be looking for my wonderful kiss when I kiss you! ”
"Let go of me," she said with a firm smack. With the slapping she did, it even hit the rock. "You scumbags!"
"Bitch!" exclaimed the man, leaping to his feet and was about to slapping her across the face.
Tina yelled at them when the body of an african catfish 1 fell into the water unexpectedly. Frahisto's arm immediately hit the other one, and they had no idea he had aided them. Her friend Tina dazzled them with the stunning view because the man was topless and wearing boxer shorts. They were both salivating!
African catfish 2's body was likewise tossed into the water. The speed with which Frahisto moved caused her mouth to open. Tina and her couldn't speak because Frahisto moved like the wind.
Is there something exceptional about Frahisto? Perhaps it was Super Man who appeared in front of them, and Frahisto. Oh, my God! She covered her mouth and could not believe what she found out. When she was 14 years old, she was still a Super Man fan because he was so attractive, and she was taken aback when she realized he looked like Brandon Routh's younger version! Her eyes widened as she realized what had happened. That explains why the man's good looks are so familiar!
"Super Man!" she exclaimed, and all she wanted to do was hold him fiercely like she saw in the movie. She is willing to wager her father's dentures, Frahisto, and Super Man are all the same person.
“Crazy! She isn't a superhero. Frahisto is a porn star. Look how yummy he is!" Tina spoke to her in hushed tones.
"Tina, what are you talking! He isn't a pornstar in any way. He's a super—"
"Odessa..."
"Huh?"
When Frahisto turned to face her, he said seriously, "I'm not Superman, Odessa."
"What?"
"I'm simply going to take a dip there," he said, looking at her carefully and quickly avoiding looking down at her visible bras. "Please let me know if these two annoy you again." He turned around and walked forward after saying that.
Odessa didn't notice her dress was wet till later because she and Tina had been playing with water earlier. Her huge breasts were visible, and she embarrassed immediately. She grabbed took the towel and wrapped it around her body. Tina, on the other hand, was enchanted by Frahisto and her gaze was drawn to the man who had already entered the water. The two catfish, on the other hand, took the initiative in running and swore to return for vengeance.
“Odessa! Isn't there some kind of exception for people like Frahisto? I want him;”
She snatched the woman's arm and yanked her back to the water to fo their laundry. "He's married!"
“Wee? You don't want to share him with me, do you? Pretend you're still crushing on her now that he's married," it guffawed foolishly. "Oh no, don't tell me? You are inlove to him! I'm so envious!”
She just gazed at her friend and went back to work with her laundry. The two's earlier joyful chat had devolved into silence, and they were in fear of disturbing the man who was soaking in the distance.
Tina was the first to leave after doing the clothes. She was left rinsing when her mother scooped it up. Will she be able to return home first, since they didn't arrive at the stream at the same time? It's also a possibility... Her eyes returned to the front of the stream as she chose to go home alone. Because there was a large boulder in the way, she couldn't see the case.
Is it okay if I call him?
Her foot stepped forward and she covertly peered over the jagged ledge, but she saw no Frahisto.
Oh, my goodness? He's no longer here! 'Couldn't he be an African catfish as well?' But, eh, he's white. Is it possible that it's catfish from the United States? 'It doesn't matter.
The man wasn't there, as she looked around. She was jittery! He was really attractive, she admitted – he resembled Brandon Routh but was more attractive. Perhaps he attracts to more than just fairies and spirits! Maybe even better than a mermaid.
Oh, my God! Isn't it possible that he was taken?
She dashed out of hiding, wearing her necklace to ward off the evil forces. “F-frahisto? Are you still alive? Frahisto! If you're not Super Man, maybe you're Spider Man or Iron Man? Or maybe Wonder Woman? Oyy, Frahisto! Did you drown? Speak up!" she worried as she looked around but couldn't find him.
"Can you tell me who you're looking for?"
When someone spoke from behind her, he was flabbergasted. As a result, one of her feet slipped on the rock. She froze, and strong arms grasped her waist before she could feel herself sinking into the deep part of the water.
"Ha?!"
"I've got you!"
As she stared into Frahisto's eyes, Odessa's heart immediately stopped. Although she did not end up in the water, the man did! His captivating eyes stared at her as if they were piercing into her heart, his sharp nose sculpted by God, and his lips that— My God! If Frahisto is her first kiss, she will most likely pass out.
Is his kiss good? Hmp!
She pushed the man away with a shake of her head. But she was a fool, she fell into the water because of what she did.
She screamed, "Frahisto!" She broke down and admitted she couldn't swim.
"Odessa!" exclaimed the man as jump immediately.
As she was lifted from the water, he hold her waist. She hugged his neck, unaware of the fact that they were so close together. She had no intention of taking a wash, aside from the very cold water, because she had no spare dress.
"Are you all right?"
"Huh?" she exclaimed as she realized their bodies were closed together and hugging under the water. Frahisto tightened his grip on her waist as she hurriedly pushed away from his grasp.
"You okay?"
She didn't say anything. Apologies for the trouble. When it had surprised her earlier, eh. Her heart was still playing with thorns at that point. Is it his fault that he makes her heart and body race every time she sees him. She's really upset that he's leaving and yet he still wants to speak with her?
"Let's go home together..." he said as he led her to the shallow area of the water.
She hurriedly released free of his grasp and reached for the basin. She took a step forward. Wouldn't it come back if they were together? What was going on with her, she shook her head slightly. He'll most likely return home because he has a wife waiting for him in Manila. She was struck a lot on that part, but it wasn't too bad. It's difficult to manage her heart because it's so resilient.
"Hija?" said Mang Bartolome, who stood at the window, patiently waiting for her to finish hanging the clothing.
"Why, Father?"
"I received a call from your mum and father. If you're so obstinate, why don't you pay a visit to your parents? Kuu!"
She simply grinned in response to her father's words. She'd contact them later, when she'd hung the laundry outside. "I'll give them a ring later."
"Oh, most likely! Where is Frahisto, by the way? ”
Hearing the young man's name, she was speechless. She pretended to be preoccupied hanging up the phone. Does she give a damn about that guy? It would be best if he left right now, so her heart could return to normal. That man is simply tampering with her system. She sighed deeply.
That night, she couldn't sleep. She was back in her bed in no time. She remembers what happened in the stream earlier, how Frahisto hugged her in the water and how it stared at her. She was gasping for air. What will she do now to get some sleep? Her heart was not going to cease beating.
Regrettably, she went to the window and inhaled the fresh air. It was a frigid night, but the prospect of the man returning home made her even sadder. It seemed as though her heart was weighing her down. She was slowly adapted Frahisto to being the first thing she looked for in the morning and before going to sleep.
She was briefly standing at the window when she observed movement on the other side of the yard. Ghost? She doesn't believe so. It was Frahisto, she fell into Odessa's consciousness after staring at what was moving. She instantly gave him a second glance and spotted him calmly heading in the direction of a 'No Trespassing' sign.
He's returning to the realm of the spirits!
She had no choice but to follow the man, even though she was terrified. It might be even worse this time if she lets him go. Maybe he was sleep walking. Now it's up to her to decide!
