Episode 4

'How can I save him when I don't even know how to die?'

'An accident, a murder, maybe a disease.'

(Penelope.)

'If it's a disease, should I call an ambulance half an hour before I die?'

'But if it is found out that I called the ambulance, they may think it was me who did this to him.'

(Penelope!)

'Even worse my secret may come out!'

(Penelope, do you hear me?)

"What if it's a murder, I could get hurt while trying to save him."

'Ah. Then I'll call the police early. '

(Hey. Penelope !!)

'Wait a little, what if this ... If this is suicide ...'

'Then what do I do to save someone who doesn't want to be saved, that's beyond my authority even!'

- Penelope !!!

- Well?

- Is there a problem? It was like you couldn't hear us.

- Are you calling me !?

- Yeah. You were starting to scare us. Did something happen?

-Yeah. So stop. No. I was just thinking of one thing.

Penelope's parents looked at each other with a worried face.

However, they immediately changed the subject and the expressions on their faces without realizing it to Penelope.

- Penolope, let's show you your room.

- The room? Do I have a room !?

- (Mother) Penelope Have you ever had a room before?

She asked timidly, a little worried.

- Hmm... Ah, yes there was! But before I came to the orphanage, they gave me the attic room.

- Okay. How was the interior of the room?

His mother wondered about the seriousness of the incident. She felt that this would upset Penelope, but she couldn't help herself.

-I do not know.

-Do not you know? How does this happen?

-Well ... There was no light in the room. That's why I never knew what it looked like, but when I took 3-4 steps inside, I hit the wall. I think he was pretty small.

Her blood-red lips, opening up against his glowing smiley face as if he were saying something very normal, were actually saying things as sharp as a knife, even if she didn't notice.

She smiled sweetly after his words were finished.

Everyone, including Isaac, was looking at Penelope with surprise, they didn't expect this sweet girl's past to be so bad.

- Penelope I'm... I'm so sorry.

She hugged her mother, Penelope.

- Miss, why are you acting like this?

Penelope was surprised, she was not used to such loving contact.

To distract the atmosphere, her father, Penelope:

- Do you want to see your room now?

- Yeah!

They left the hall and went towards the second floor of the house. There were 2 rooms with doors facing each other in the long corridor.

- This is Isaac's room.

Her father said, raising his right arm, then with his left hand he opened the door to the other room to his left.

- Request! This is your room, I hope you like it.

Penelope slowly pushed the door open.

'Oh my God. This is absolutely fascinating. '

'Is this really my room!?

The interior of the room was as big as Selene's room in my old house, maybe even bigger. The room was equipped with my favorite colors purple and blue. It had big windows and there was a sweet seat you could sit in front of the window. The bed was huge and had a baby blue mosquito net on it. There was a large desk and a large bookcase with all kinds of beautiful books, even a room to dress in. I had my own bathroom and toilet. '

'I am speechless.'

- Did you like it?

- This is really good.

- We are so glad you like it!

- Thank you very much ...

'Damn, I'm about to cry. I cannot cry in front of them. '

Isaac noticed that Penelope was trying to keep his full eyes.

- Mom, dad, let's go. Penelope must be wanting to rest.

'Well?'

- (Mom) Oh, you're right, let's get out, you put on your clothes and go down to dinner.

- Of course, Miss.

Penelope's mother was a little hurt by the word she heard. She did not expect him to call her a mother right away, but she could not be offended.

When the door of the room closed, Penelope was left alone in the great room.

She sat on the floor and started crying. This time, however, Penelope's tears were shedding from happiness for the first time in her life, and Penolole cried more when she noticed the tears of happiness.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ♤ ♡ ◇ ♧ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh, crying is really good. Now I have to wear something because I look like a beggar this way."

Penelope opened the wardrobe, hoping to find something inside.

Since Penelepe's family did not know what he liked, they put on all kinds of clothes.

"Wow. There are so many clothes. It takes years to decide which one to wear. Hmm, I think I'll wear the simplest ones."

Penelope took a sweet purple sweat suit from the closet.

She wanted to wear it quickly and come down, but her eyes were puffy from crying and she had to wait a while for the swelling to subside.

"I can quickly put my stuff while I wait."

Penelope had brought only her diary, pen, necklace and key from her aunt. Inside the necklace was a photograph that she thought belonged to his mother. Her mother, Lucy, had blond hair, just like Penelope, and she was terribly beautiful.

Penelope did not want to put the necklace among the other necklaces in the dressing room. So she took it and put it around her neck.

She put the key in the first drawer at the bedside where there are drawers.

She sat on the bed and took the diary. He turned the pages gently, there were people she had saved by ticking while she was turning, and after the first 3 pages, there were people with a cross beside him that he could not or could not save. She thought about her name on each page and what happened about them, and as she thought, she felt sad, her memories refreshed and her face became blank and she realized that the pages she had translated were empty. She immediately turned back the pages and went back to the first blank page. She squeezed her cheeks with both hands and recovered, then she sprayed a strawberry-scented perfume on the white sheet. It was like his hobby, he used to spray pages and books with fragrant perfumes. She used to stick the flowers she found in the garden on the pages because she did not have perfume, after spraying the perfume on the page, she took the pen and put a huge title on the page and decorated the title beautifully.

☆ ◇ {ISAAC CASTLETON} ◇ ☆

Then she just wrote the date and closed the cover of the diary, because the minute and hour change every moment.

In the orphanage she would put her diary between the bars of the bed and the sofa. So nobody could find it. Now he was looking for a place to bear a beard, and after traveling the whole room, he finally put it under his bed again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ♤ ♡ ◇ ♧ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Let's see if my eyes are back to normal."

Penelope studied her eyes carefully.

"Hmm ... I think the swelling went down enough, if that's the case I'll go down now."

She turned to the door and opened it.

When She opened the door she saw Isaac coming to the door simultaneously with her.

- Ah!

- Penelope.

- Brother I-Isaac.

- You don't need to say brother, I'm only 2 years older than you.

- Ehh ... okay. Isaac.

Isaac's eyes sparkled. Then he shook his head and asked:

- Are you going down to dinner?

- Yeah.

- Come with me.

Penelope followed Isaac, with a slightly flushed face.

All eyes were on Penelope when they entered the main hall.

- Welcome, Penelope. Come and join us.

Penelope slowly pulled up his chair. He had learned the etiquette in his old house so he was not afraid of making a mistake, but the atmosphere was still very tense for him.

- (Mother) During the previous donation, I came across a rumor in the orphanage.

Her mother said to soften the environment, her words without any ulterior motives scared Penelope.

- (Father) Ah. Yes, I've heard it too. I guess it was about the thing. Hmm ... Oh yes, it was about a girl who said she knew the days when people would die, if I'm not mistaken.

Penelope went cold and her face turned white.

He noticed the strangeness of Isaac Penelope's expression.

- (Mother) Penelope have you ever heard of it?

- No- no.

Penolope's voice was trembling.

His mother and father realized that this situation disturbed him, and nobody wanted to talk about it any more. The subject just closed unfinished.

(*Creaak*)

Penelope came to life with the voice. She was from Isaac, who pulled the voice chair.

- (Mother) Are you getting up Isaac?

- (Isaac) Yeah.

- (Penelope) I-I'll get up too. Thank you for the food.

- Bon Appetit.

Penelope swiftly followed Isaac, and the idea of ​​leaving the second-floor hallway alone terrified him. When she saw him, Isaac was waiting for her at the door.

Penelope slowed her steps.

- (Isaac) Are you okay? You looked awkward at dinner. When we talk about ...

Penelope didn't want to hear it but continued to listen to him.

- (Isaac) ... the girl who knows when people die.

Penelope stiffened, although she knew what he was going to hear.

'Why is he talking about this now !?'

- (Penelope) N-no, I'm fine.

Isaac looked at Penelope in disbelief.

- Good. Okay.

Isaac closed door and left.

Penelope entered her room the same way.

She put on his pajamas and took a book from the library.

"Anatomy"

She started reading.

Penelope slept reading a book until three that night.

At night came a boy with black hair and golden eyes glowing in the dark.

He took the book from Penolope and put it on the table and covered the sleeping girl and left the room.
