Chapter 4

Rossweisse Valkovich

"Aaaaah~ This is the best wine EVER!" I chirped in so much satisfaction and gulped it straightly, bottom's up. And hell, I hereby annouce that Greece is the land of wines!

"Woooh! The best!" Toastes Bird, and serve another shot and drink. He's so noisy! He's already tipsy that's why.

"Easy, Phoenix. There's a class tomorrow." Fafa Vaspe reminded and served Fafa Kirk another shot.

"Did you brought your clothes, guys?" Agape asked as she walk down the stairs, "Pardon for my short absence. I just readied the rooms. So, what's next?" She's so pretty. All hail the goddess!

"Let's play the boredness of ours out." Katerina. E-Eh? Play?

"Sure, sure! Spin the bottle! Let's play spin the bottle! Whoever the mouth of the bottle pointed at will be on the hot seat. And whoever the butt of the bottle's pointed to will be the one to ask. Game!"

"ALRIGHT!"

We all sit down in the soft carpet. It nakes me dreamy. It's so soft.

My forehead crinkled when Toasted Bird positioned in front of me. He's smirking at me playfully. He's doing it on purpose! Does he think his 'smirks' makes him HANDSOME? No! He looks like a high, maniac addict!

"Bottle, bottle, on the floor. Who will be the first unlucky person? S---pin!" Ugh! That gay is really noisy!

[Here's the sitting arrangement: Phoenix-Valkyrie-Savanna-Rossweisse-Hughes-Xeref.]

"The first unlucky person is---Katerina!" I smirked in no time. Fafa Kirk is the one who will ask her questions. And I'm getting excited. Like, hihihi. There might be secrets to be revealed or exposed. Hohohohoho.

"Who is you crush?" Fafa Kirk asked lazily. It dumbfound us. Whut! What kind of question was that!

"Don't get me wrong. It's just that *yawn* I don't have any to ask." Really? Or are just too lazy to speak and open that mouth of yours?

"None. I'm not interested to boys nor girls. I love myself." Granny Katerina answered. I snorted.

"Lol. You can't live without 'LOVE'." I corrected and she hissed at me.

"Well, I can. Mens are headaches. And I hate weighty peole." Too direct to the point! So haughty.

"Womens make our body ache. If we are headaches, you are bodyaches." Toasted Bird snorted. We're choked by our own salivas because of what he said.

WOW. Words from him! Us? WOMENS? Body aches! Ha!

"LOL! Your bodies won't hurt if in the first place, you didn't do anything foolish!" I'm just stating a fact. We, womens, won't fight back if we were not hurt in the first place. Heh.

"Wow! Coming from you! FYI, 9 out of 10 of girls cheats on their boyfriends! Cheaters!" What the---! Why is he angry at me! Is it me who cheated! Dumb-assed Toasted Bird!

"Humiliating for you, womanizer! No woman will cheat if it's the man who cheated first!" Gosh, this is so stressful! I will fight every woman's rights! So, support me girls! Let's pull these motherfuckers down!

"I'm not a womanizer. Well, sure, let's say I really am but they love it though when they're being played. Pathetic desperates." He teased. Argh! I really hate him!

"There are girls who are born flirty and itchy. As a woman, I know what you're pointing at. I don't have any controls to those kind of Eves. The only thing for me is, DON'T INCLUDE ALL, YOU ANIMAL!" I stretched my hand and pinched him. Grrr! I'm so annoyed! We girls are behave here and he'll be toying us! Go, fight me!

"And why do you sound like a jealous girlfriend, Rossweisse?" Fafa Kirk innocently drawled. I winced. Me? JEALOUS GIRLFRIEND? Eww!

"Aha! I knew it! You're desiring me, I knew it!" YUCK! So gross I wanna puke!

"You thick-skinned animal! Fafa Lawrence is much better looking than you!"

"Don't compare me to that butthole. I'm beautifuler." BUTTHOLE! He called Fafa Lawrence a BUTTHOLE! He's stupid! There's no such word as 'beautifuler'!

I was about to attack him when Granny beated me in the head using the bottle, "Calm down, okay? We're playing. Enough with the bickering. Let's continue." Agape said calmly. I pouted before glaring at that stupid Toasted Bird. I stick my tongue out at him. Tss. He's toasted and so his brain!

"Oh, it's you, Hughes! Rosseu will be the one to ask a question." Agape Baby chanted. I became serious. This is it. This is the time. I've been waiting for this moment to ask that but he's too intimitading so, I always back out. But it's now or never!

"So, Mister Hughes. I want an honest and true answer. I want to know why. Mister Hughes, what do you think about girls?" I asked making his brow raised. I knew he's harsh and too rude but I'm prepared. I just wanna know why.

"Toys?" My brows furrowed. He shrugged, "Girls are just mere toys that gives pleasure to us, mens. And I believe that girls are under the boys. Girls are stupids. They are foolish. Girls are nothing but our puppet."

My fists balled because of his proud answer yet I still manage to smile at him. It wasn't forced nor fake, but plastic. That's it. I already knew his perception towards Eves and I hate it. I hate the way he look at us. Like, hell? He's looking down at us! Toys? Puppets? Pleasure givers? Damn. I think I want to kill a handsome arrogant man!

"That ain't true, Vaspe." Agape disgarees with pain and teary eyes. Can't believe what Vaspe said.

"You're so heartless to think that way to us. God made men to protect the women. You don't know the struggles of being a woman. You're saying that because you're a man. There's nothing to stop you. You can do whatever you want. Your parents are confident because you have nothing to lose. Being a girl is wonderful. But it was scary. I hate it everytime I heard a news of a woman being raped, assaulted or harrassed. Girls receives lots of criticism than boys. Girls have many imperfections. Girls can be judge easily. No matter how good a girl is, just one mistake, just only one mistake, everything will change. You... You shouldn't say those awful words to us, Vaspe. Your mother is a woman. A man should protect womens at any cost. Not hurt them, abuse them, and discriminate them." She sobbed and it dumbfounded us.

Vaspe dumbfoundedly stared at her. And I can't help but to smile at the same time, cry. I immediately wiped them before they could fall. Hed tears are so precious. She's so precious and pure. Her heart is so kind. She got what I want to point out but I just chose to shut up. My fears of being a girl. This world is cruel. It wasn't just moneys who are sore to eyes but womens too. Womens are blinding. No matter how decent your clothes are, once a man feel the lust, they will do whatever they want to do against you. And she is right. There are so many things that a woman can lose. Being a girl is really scary. Good thing my parents raised me with so much reminders and protection. I was guarded since then until now. Because they are too scared that something bad might happen to me. Because I'm their princess. And every girl deserve to be treated like one.

"H-Hey. Don't cry. I'm sorry. Please, don't cry. I...I...shit." He stutteredand packed. I was surprised. Like, seriously? Is he really Vaspe?

"I-I'm sorry. It's just that---I remembered my Mom. Gush of emotions." Agape chuckled while wiping her tears away. I pet her head. She smiled.

"Is there something bad happened to your mother?" I asked lowly. And I regretted it instantly. She bursted into tears. Even though she won't tell us, it's obvious there is.

"I-I'm sorry for asking. Hush, Baby. I'll punch Fafa Vaspe later. He's really our number 1 enemy. Hush." I tried to cheer her up. She chuckled and smiled. I glanced at Vaspe who's scratching his head now. Cute.

"Alright! Let's continue! I'll spin the bottle!" She giggled and shove aside the gloominess. It pointed Agape, and Fafa Kirk will be the one to ask him.

"It's Cakeu! Alright, I'm ready!" She sternly said and sit attentively. But Fafa Xeref remained looking at her. I can't say but the way he looks at her is so...different.

"I have nothing to ask. I can see no flaws on her." He simply said and averted his eyes on her. Agape's jaw drop. I covered my mouth and started beating Granny because of giddiness. Fafa Kirk is so silly. Ehe.

I secretly laughed. Just look at the way Baby Agape blushed. She's so flustered. And she's so cute. Hihihihi. I ship AgapexKirk!

The game went on and it was fun. Phoenix and Vaspe even boast who's more better in womanizing. How many their girls are, how good they are, things like that. Agape being sensitive in that topic, she cried again and lectured the two. Pfft. They received a beating from Fafa Kirk and Granny for making her cry. Ha, there you go.

"Alright. Let's get serious. Since Agape's a Greek, let's choose who's our favorite couple in Greek Mythology and elaborate it. You go first, Granny!" I giggled and wiggled my eyebrows at her. She hissed. She sipped to her wine glass first before answering.

"I choose Pygmalion and Galatea," we nodded and listened to her, "Pygmalion is a sculptor and he hated women. For him, they didn't worth his time and they didn't deserved to be wasted time of. He then made Galatea out of ivory. Galatea is prettier than any breathing women. And he fell in love in his own sculpted work. So, Aphrodite rewarded him after his sacrifice to her and brought Galatea to life. And they had a son which became one of the goddess's sacred cities, Paphos."

She sighed, "I was just fascinated by that. The story tells that you shouldn't give up on love because there will be a time where you will get the person you're desiring and admired. Pygmalion worked really hard, if we mirror him to a living man, his hard work resembles a man's courtship to a woman for me. It takes time before you can have the person you love the most." My heart melted. I was so touched. I love it. I love it so much!

"You wanna love a statue too, Granny?" I joked and we laughed. She rolled her eyes on me. Hmmmmf.

"I love that lovestory too. It was just like, today, you want him or her. Striving to have your love. Then when you woke up, he or she's already yours. Isn't it magical!" Baby Agape exclaimed. We both chuckled.

"Alright! It's mah turn! Listen to me!" I announced and cleared my throat, "For me, it's Psyche and Eros!" Agape smiled at me. She seems interested. Maybe, it's one of her favorite lovestory too? Hihi.

"Well, Aphrodite's a jealous bitch and she doesn't want to be outweighed, especially if it's just a mere human. Of course it will be an insult to her since she's a guddess. The goddess sent Eros to the young woman's bedchamber with a potion that would make all men avoid marrying her. As he enchanted Psyche with this potion, Eros accidentally poked her with one of his arrows, causing her to stir. He grew flustered, and accidentally poked himself as well, before sprinkling her with a potion to cause lifelong happiness." Waaaah, I can't contain my feels!

I cleared my throat again, "I know everyone here already knew their lovestory. Psyche broke her promise to Eros because of ther sisters and that's why they parted. But Psyche accepted all of Aphrodite's punishments to see Eros again."

I smiled sweetly and played my glass, "For me, Psyche symbolizes a woman's sacrifices to a man. It wasn't just a man who lifts all the weights in a relationship but a woman too. And Pysche also symbolizes the perseverance to get your love back after a mistake. Taking any tough consequences just to prove that she is sincere to have him back in her life." I squealed after because of giddiness. Just---Waaaahhhh! I stan Psyche even though she's dumb!

Agape and I shared a high five. Next is Vaspe. And he's boredly looking at us. Doesn't have any intentions to join the fun, I think.

"For me, it's Zeus and Hera. Hera still loves him even though her husband has so many affairs." What!

"So, you want someone like Hera that will let you had affairs and womanize even though you're tied already!" H-He's unbelievable! A certified PLAYBOY and FUCKBOY!

He just shrugged. We snorted in disbelief. We can't really trust that man. Like, who the fuck will give a damn appreciation about Zeus' affairs! He's even proud of it! Being a womanizer!

"Whoever your future bride is, she's shit out of luck." Katerina sassed making me and Agape chuckle. Pfft.

"Psh." Vaspe. We continued the story-sharing. And it's Toasted Bird's turn now.

"Haist. I don't know a thing about Greek Myths so I have nothing to share. Mehe." What a dumb-assed jerk. He's spoiling the fun!

"Mine is Orpheus and Eurydice," Fafa Kirk drawled and yawned, "Orpheus is the best lyre player in the world. His song wooed Eurydice. And in their exact wedding, a viper bitten her causing her death after her "I do" to him. Orpheus journeyed the underworld and convinced the King and Queem of the underworld to bring his wife back by making them moved through his song. But Hades had one condition, and that is he should not look back until he's in the surface again. Orpheus full of doubt, no matter how hard he resisted the urge, he still looked back and his wife was sent back to the pitch-black darkness, losing her forever." He summarized. I felt bad all of a sudden. How tragic it is. You've been given a second chance but you let your doubts rule and there, you lost your love forever.

"Their lovestory for me is all about trust and faith. You're nor a CCTV to monitor every move of your partner. You just need to trust your partner no matter what. You will if you truly love him, or her. And also, have faith in them. Set the doubts aside. There is no love without trust and faith." He expanded and I was so moved. It melted my heart. Fafa Kirk... *sniffs*

He sounds as if he has a freaking girlfriend even though he doesn't have one! Does he?

"I love your own perception, Cakeu! Their tragic lovestory is one of my favorites too. But Persephone and Hades' lovestory is the best for me." Agape. That's it! It's her turn!

"I want someone like Hades." She sweetly said with her usual sweer smile. We were dumbfounded. H-Hades? Why Hades?

"Why the underworld King? He's evil." I reasoned. She shooked her head, mainting her smile.

"He's not. He just had no choice but to rule the underworld, Rosseau. Unlike the other gods, Hades is the only one who never had an affair and remained loyal to his wife, Persephone." Her smile is so sweet and we're melting. I-I want...to protect that smile!

"I want a man like him. A man like Hades. People may say bad things about him. People may throw rocks and bricks at him but I will help him build a castle out of bricks and rocks they threw at him. Hades is gentle and loyal and faithful to Persephone. And I want someone to treat me like that." She let out a soft sigh. Silence surrounds us.

She suddenly screamed in high-pitched voice, "Isn't fairytale-like! I've read a novel about a badboy being a gentle boy to his baby and---waaaahhhh! I want to be treated that way too! I'm so embarrassed!" She panicked while covering her face. I supressed my laugh. But can't contain it so I laughed. S-She's so cute!

"So dreamy, Agape. I want someone like Persephone too who can digest someone like Hades despite being the underworld King." Fafa Kirk blurted out all of a sudden. He gained our attention. Why does it mean by that?

"Mine's Hera. A kind of girl who will fight my mistresses." Vaspe said cooly, with a smirk, he shrugged. Tsk.

"Mine's Aphrodite. Goddess of love, beauty and sex!" TOASTED BIRD, YOU PERV!

"Mine is Adonis! Waaaahhhh~ The muscles and gorgeous god." I said dreamily with twinkling eyes. Who will be my Adonis? When will I meet my Adonis? I'm not getting any younger already. I want a man~!

"What about you, Kat?" I asked.

"Any decent man." Decent, eh?

"Elaborate the word 'decent' more. Knowing you? Your standards are higher than Mt. Everest!" Gosh.

"Whatever. I'll marry whoever I want and I think is deserving enough to have me. Duh?" Hmmmp. So mean!

"Alright. Let's talk about our ideal girl and ideal man! So, Kat wants a decent man. Mine will be, uhhhm, loyal and faithful. And of course, someone who will treat me like a Princess. Hihihihi." I can't wait any longer! I want to see my Mr. Right already!

"What about you, Agape? What's your ideal type?" Fafa Vaspe asked. We nailed our eyes on her. Rather on THEM. That caught her off guard. She was busy eating and was about ti feed Fafa Kirk if only we didn't looked at them. Gotcha, love birds! Hihihihihi.

"H-Huh? M-Me?" Her eyes widening in embarrassment and she looks so cute. Fafa Kirk bite the food already after waiting for seconds and chew it really slow. He's even lazy to chew? Seriously?

"But I want a man that can appreciate me and everything that I will do for him. And also, me myself is enough." She answered with a wide smile and---KYAAAAAAHHH! I'm feeling giddy!

"What about you, Rosseu?" Hmmm, me?

"A simple and decent man with respect. That's all. I won't ask for more. For me, it will be a blessing. Especially if he's a daks. Wieee!"

"Pervert." They commented with glaring eyes. Well, except for Baby Agape who's supporting me. Hmmmp. I love Agape so much!

"What about you, boys?" Ha! I need to know! Why? Nothing. Who knows if it was just me, Fafa Kirk's soulmate? Ehe. Hihihihihihi.

"A classy and understanding one." Fafa Xeref. Awts! Classy! Wait! Am I even classy?

"A fashion Queen. Because I'm the Fashion King." Yes, you are. So remove that shades of yours because it's already night not day!

"Hmmmmm... A woman that can ride me---I mean, my pranks and jokes. A woman who has a sexy, Coca-Cola body and watermelons~!" He even licked his lips and he literally looked a maniac addict. Gross!

"Since we're talking about relationships, let's make scenes for each other and let's see how we will give it a solution. Hmmm, let's start from you, Katerina." I presented. She heaved a breath and started thinking.

"So, for the boys. Since y'all are flirts, let's say that your girl was impregnanted by other man. What will you do?" W-Woah! That's a kinda sensitive one, huh. But I'll take the challenge!

"Kick her away from my life. I don't like cheaters. She may be became my world once but since she shattered it, I will find a better one." Fafa Kirk answered amusing me. Oh my god, he's already gorgeous and he's brainy too! A MAN LIKE RAMPAGE KIRK PLEASE.

"I will kill the father, the mother, and the son so they can live happily ever after." Vaspe answered. We looked at him poker faced. We heard sniffs.

"Hughes... Why are so mean? The baby...is innocent. It's an angel. Why are you... Why are you... Why will you kill it! Uwaaaaah!"

"D-DON'T CRY!" Holy---crap! Agape!

"You made her cry for the third time, Vaspe Calypso Gryer." Fafa Kirk drawled boredly to Fafa Vaspe who's now panicking. Pfft! He looks so tensed!

"Fine, fine, fine. I will let the baby live and after it was born, I will kill them. Happy?" Oh my god, he's a killer! So bad! So evil! Criminal! Waaahhh!

"Hmmmm... I think I'll still accept her. I love her, you know. But if I have no choice, then I'll let her be with her other guy. I'll just found someone new. Hahahahahaha!" Whatever, Toasted Bird. Tss.

"Uhhh, for the girls, what about..." he looked up. He doesn't have a mind yet he's thinking. Magic.

"You caught your boyfriend cheating. What will you do?" Why does our topic is al about 'cheating'? Seriously, guys?

"I will kick his ass out of my life and shame the girl." Granny.

"I'll beat him to pulp!" Ha! There's no way in hell he won't receive a beating! If I can't, my father can!

"Mine is different." Oh, here goes the sweet child.

"My Mom once said that if you love someone, you should accept all of his or her flaws. My Mom loves my Dad so much. She says to me that Dad looks so perfect in her eyes. That, everything he did seems so magical. My Mom's love for Dad is everlasting. And I want to be like Mom. Even a devil deserves a girl that will accept him and love him despite all of his flaws." Her smile widened even more. It was proven that she's so soft and kind. Inside and out. Just, look at her. Her kindness even reached the devil. How I wish she won't end up to a devil.

"You're a bad boy's ideal then." Katerina broke the silence and licked her lips, "Bad boys are assed-devils. But I don't want you to end up with one."

I nodded to agree, "That's right! All of your suitors should pass through us first to ensure your happiness and! that there will be no heartbreaks!" She was moved and reached to hug me. What a baby she is.

"Your future man will be the luckiest man ever. Beats me." Fafa Kirk commented and gulped the beer straight. Ours are wine only. Unfair, right? Hmmmmp.

It's already past 10 when we all made up our minds and decided to sleep. We didn't woke the resting couple and clean all of our mess.

DADDY VASPE IS THE ONE WHO WASHED THE DISHES.

And we, girls, are so amazed! I never had the chance to hold a bubbly sponge and wash any kind of kitchen wares. But Fafa Vaspe is doing it like a professional dishwasher! Every wares are clean. No grease left behind. He's an ideal guy! Get a man who could do the dishes!

"Wooooooow! This room is full of arts!" I gasped in astonishment. Murals are imprinted on her walls. Her vases looks so antique too with amazing carvings. Even though I can't understand the pictures, it was awesome. This is what art really means!

"Kyaaaaah! Even your bed is so---fancy!" Wow, she might be really RICH! Her canopy bed is so COOL! Like, really! The curtains are made from the most delicate silk. Her bed is so soft as cotton. If feels like you'll sink. The four posts are made in mahogany, with traces of gold in patterns. It has an ancient-modern vibe. Amazing...

"So, this is the perks of being a daughter of a rich-assed Greek. Marvelous." Granny smirked as she busily looked around. I saw a door. My instincts are telling me to go there. So I did. I was surprised of what's before me.

"H-Huge!" Oh my god! Is this a paradise! A walk-in-closet!

"A-Ahahahahahaha. That's my closet." She said, embarrassed, as she scratch her clear-skinned face. I almost drool because of the fancy dresses. The shoe racks are sorted by type accordingly: boots, heels, sandals, and more! There were glass tables in the middle full of jewelries and bags! And her gowns... Is this Barbie's closet!

"I want to move in here. This is...heaven." Granny and I drooled with sparkling eyes. All of them are sparkly~ *Q* So sparkly that it makes me cry in awe. I can't take my feels.

"Can we have a trade, Savanna? I want some of your things~" I used my puppy eyes on her and wrapped my arms around her arm. She chuckled sweetly.

"Sure." One word. Only one word. And that made me and Granny go insane. Holy sheet! She's so amaziiiiing! She's the best! The BEST! The perfect friend! Waaaahhh! I'm so blessed!

"But first, we need to sleep already. You don't want us to be late, right?" She reminded and hitted us. Hmmmp, fine.

We changed into our nightgowns, but Agape's wearing a cute Panda onesie. Before we could sleep, we even took pictures. Like, duh? Friendship goals is this.

"Good night, Besties." She chanted. I turned around to face her. I rested my head on her. My human pillow! Uwu, she's so soft!

"Good night too, Bestie." Granny and I greeted back and closed my eyes. A smile formed in my lips.

I want another sleepover like this.
