The Villain’s Sister Suffers Today-Chapter 2
Chapter 2
I was dumbfounded . I was amazed how a seven-year-old could confuse a human with a doll . For the first time, I doubted my brother’s intelligence .
“You don’t like it?”
“You don’t seem to know the essence of the problem . Go over there and look at the wall with your arms up . Don’t put your arms down unless I tell you to . ”
First, I explained to my brother what was wrong with his actions . My brother gave me an incomprehensible look – No, Why? – but at the end of the lecture, he nodded . Well, I guess it’s not serious . But I should have suspected the other possibility, not my brother’s intelligence .
“Sister, sister . ”
“What’s wrong?”
“Do you like this doll?”
It was not long after that incident . This time, there was a butler, not a maid, who appeared before me, with their whole body tied and gagged . He looked at me with terrified eyes and struggled . Wait, hold on . What’s going on here? I was slow on catching on . But I finally realized the situation .
‘Last time you scolded me because you really didn’t like the doll, right? So I changed the gender this time . ’
I was speechless . What can I do to explain my feelings this time? My younger brother, who calls people dolls, pushed the tightly bound servant to me, and checked my reaction . He was pure, innocent and his eyes were clear .
“Why aren’t you talking, Sister?”
“…”
“Do you not like it again?”
I finally realized the seriousness of the situation .
I threw away everything I was doing, and only focused on observing my brother . Before long, I was able to reach a conclusion .
I think he’s a psychopath .
Or something like that . My brother’s problem was simple . He couldn’t tell the difference between people, things and animals at all . For this younger brother, except for his family, a person was no different from a toy or an ant in the yard .
“Sister, look at this!”
“What else?”
“Twin Puppets! What do you think?”
“Ha……twins this time, so let’s hit you with both hands this time . ”
I got through the secret of my birth, and now my brother is a psychopath . But I didn’t take the issue seriously at the time . I got a few goosebumps, but that was all .
My brother was still young and could be disciplined . When my brother brought me a doll, I would tie him up, feed him honey chestnuts(?) and release him afterwards . The cycle of doing such a thing became increasingly dull, and doing it was hard . Yeah, not all psychopaths become killers anyway . My younger brother may get better as he gets older, and learn some common sense . But what an optimistic misjudgment that was .
I woke up to the real gravity of the situation in summer, at an old library .
“…Nonsense . ”
The shock covered my whole body and I dropped the book .
“Is this a lie?”
Spring of Agrita, The New Girl . It was a book with that title . The book’s setting was in this world, many people appeared in it, including me . Each had a role . The main character, villain, supporting actor, extra, etc . My brother was a villain and I was a supporting actor .
‘How is this…?’
I couldn’t determine if it was a coincidence or if it was real . The events described in the book were the same as reality . There was another reason why the book could not be ignored .
“Bessie, do you see what this book is about?”
“Well, isn’t it just blank?”
The contents of the book were only visible to my eyes . Even the title .
There were only two possibilities: I was crazy, or I could only see this book because only people who’ve remembered their past life have the privilege to see it . As time went by, the conclusion fell to the latter . I’ve never heard of people going crazy and having visions . After all, this place was really a novel . But the real problem here was .
“I’m going to die again?”
My ending in the novel was terrible .
“And it’s miserable again?”
In the second half of the book, I die at the hands of my brother . There was no particular reason . I got caught being adopted . My grown-up brother kills me as soon as he finds out . He was mad that I dared to act superior to him, even though I was not his sister . Why didn’t my parents stop him? Sadly, they were scheduled to die of incurable diseases, side by side, before that .
“Oh, my God…”
Jesus Christ! How could you do this to me? The brother in the book was much more psychotic than he is now . The adult psychopathic brother was scary . Having a big brain, big body, and having the whole family in his hands, I changed my view of the little brother before my eyes . Dolls? Huh, that was cute .
I didn’t realize it was the greatest act of charm he could ever show . I wasn’t the only one to die at the hands of my adult brother, though . In short, he fell in love with the heroine at first sight, grew obsessed with her, and killed the people around her . My killing was also there . I can’t help but think that my death was coming . It was an act of madness .
‘If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have punished him . ’
I should have done better . No punishments, no curses, no throwing a fit when I got his dolls . I regretted everything I did . The reason for my death was the secret of my birth .
My end won’t be changed unless the fact that I was adopted changed . ‘I have to live . ’ My adult younger brother in the book killed me when I was twenty-two . In my previous life, I died at twenty-one, but I will not let myself die miserably here .
I flipped through the book at night, looking for a way to survive . I reached a conclusion at dawn .
‘Let’s run away . ’
That’s all .
However, it was dangerous to run away at any time . My younger brother still thinks that I‘m his sister and if I tried to get away, I might not get off without a scratch . Right after my brother meets the heroine, is the best time . As soon as my younger brother meets the heroine, he will start to cling to her . Then all the attention will be directed towards her . I will take advantage of that time and take all my wealth and run away to a leisurely life .
‘If I cross the border, I’ll be safe . ’
I wonder if he’ll come to other countries to kill? There must have been a lot of other people to kill besides me .
‘That’s the way I‘ll live, but before that…’
I concluded that it was a good idea to run away, but I decided to try one more thing before planning to run away in earnest . To prevent the death of my parents .
My parents in the book, had an incurable disease, but that’s still two years away . From now on, I don’t know where the road to will lead . Why, the old saying goes, “If the heart is strong, the sky is moved too . ” Heavens, Please grant my wish .
“… . . On the way to the dead, please be full of rest . ”
It’s touching, but it didn’t change the future . The funeral director buried my parents’ coffin and the priest wrote the surname on it .
My two years of hard work became nothing, just like this .
“Sister . ”
My little brother, who had fallen over my height, stood beside me and held my hand .
“Now it’s just the two of us . ”
Yes, there are only two left . Only two more supporting actors to be killed by a future villain and his supporter .
‘I’m doomed . ’
Now I was just running away . I’ve spent time in a pretty hectic way ever since .
It was scheduled, but my parents’ death was still sad, and my miserable future, which comes to mind from time to time, contributed greatly to the rise in my blood pressure, and planning to flee was not as easy to do . It was a day when I couldn’t sense how time was flowing . And then I realized…
“Have the invitations been sent properly?”
“Check again if we’re missing any . ”
“Alex, go downstairs and check the list for any missing items . ”
“Tomorrow’s food…”
The day of fate was just around the corner .
***
The mansion was noisy all day . The rush that began in the morning showed no sign of diminishing, even though the evening was over . It was only one day before the coming-of-age ceremony for the 18th birthday banquet of Duke Widgreen, my brother and the owner of this house .
I sat in the living room and watched the busy scene . The only leisurely scene here was me, taking a sip of steaming tea .
“Hwoo . ”
Even though I looked relaxed from the outside, my mind was bustling .
‘Don’t be afraid . Just stop being nervous already . ’
Finally, tomorrow . It’s tomorrow . I was going to leave here tomorrow evening .
‘As soon as the banquet begins, I’ll run away . ’
Tomorrow was the perfect day for me to carry out my long dreamt of escape . It hurts to state the reason . It will be my brother’s first meeting with the heroine . The heroine, Agrita was one of the guests that will attend my brother’s birthday banquet tomorrow . Her family wasn’t high ranking and would never have been invited, but there was an exception this time .
Because it‘s customary to invite as many people as possible to a birthday banquet held at the same time as a coming of age ceremony . The invitations were literally sprinkled around . I checked my plans . The fateful encounter between the heroine and the villain will be taking place in the banquet hall . A villain who is attracted to her at first sight and sees nothing but her . The success of me, a supporting actor, running away is:
Romantic, blind, run away, successful .
‘Perfect . ’
It was a result that took a longer time to think about than it seems . In particular, the timing was perfect . Looking for a way to live, I read the book several times, and it was on the first day of the banquet that my brother’s attention focused most on Agrita . Since then, he will have a choice to either stay behind her at all times, which is the specialty of a villain, or remove the people around her .
The more nervous I am, the higher the risk . So I have to observe a lot . My purpose is to sneak away from my brother . If I get caught before I get out of there completely… I can’t be sure what will happen after that . Therefore, it was naturally the first day of the banquet, or tomorrow, that was the best time to run away .
‘Will it work?’
It has to go well .
‘Please . ’
The contents of the teacup splashed around when I shook my hand . I gulped it down as I stared at the surface of the tea, like it was my heart . Oh, it’s hot . While I was doing that, my brother came down the stairs and found me .
