For Love
Execution
() : thinking
"" : flashback / sarcasm
Azron
You despicable woman.
Today was the day of the crazy woman's execution.
Audience
Kill her! Kill the villainess.
Although her head was down, she could recognize that voice.
It was her best friend sobbing.
Belle
She's finally caught?
Azron
Don't worry my sweet Belle, she won't hurt you again.
She was actually a villainess.
And she did actually hurt Belle.
Yuriana
( Honestly , what did I expect? )
Yuriana
( It was bound to happen. )
Yuriana had manipulated, gaslighted, and even kidnapped Belle.
And it wasn't Belle alone.
Executor
Now, let us recall Yuriana Cryteare's crimes.
Executor
Kidnapping , drugging , destruction of property.
Executor
Poisoning , stealing , ownership of deadly weapons.
Executor
Murder , torture , and arson.
Executor
Blackmail , threatening , and maybe more we don't know of.
Yuriana laughed a little.
Yuriana
No... it's nothing.
She really didn't know why she laughed.
She regretted her actions.
But again, it was deserved.
She had never hurt her loved ones physically, only the people who hurt them.
She had murdered everyone who even tried to inflict pain to her close friends or family.
But also, she had killed a few innocent people out of misunderstandings.
Azron
It's alright Belle, she can't get you.
She kidnapped Belle and locked her in a huge mansion that was on a remote island.
But it wasn't long before she was found and asked to be a witness.
She blackmailed Selena, and forced her to stay inside the house everyday.
She spied on her and gaslighted her into believing that she was the only one who can keep her safe.
But when Selena realized that all this was wrong, she asked to be a witness against Yuriana.
She threatened him, spied on him, drugged him.
She killed every girl that got too close to him.
But his last straw was when Yuriana killed his little sister.
That was the time he knew he had to speak up about her behavior.
She drugged Aria, used a poison to make her mute.
She destroyed some of Aria's jewlery, and even family photos.
She sent an assassin after Aria's abusive ex boyfriend and had him killed.
Rowan, Aria's new boyfriend, had read Aria's diary where she talked about all this, so he decided he would get her justice.
Yuriana even hurt her own mother.
By using her mom's affair against her, she used many of her assets to carry out her evil schemes.
But when Reina's husband died, she had no reason to continue doing Yuriana's bidding.
And so, she reported her own daughter.
Yuriana was a true villainess.
Azron walked closer to Yuriana.
Azron
What are your last words?
Yuriana
You're so nice to spare an evil woman like me some words.
Azron's eyes were filled with hatred.
Azron
Just finish before I end your life right this second.
Yuriana
I won't say I'm innocent but, just know.
And once she finished that sentence, she lost her neck.
Encounter
Yuriana was on a fluffy but familiar bed.
She looked around a little before she got convinced.
Yuriana
What a shame, I was ready for death.
She got up and cracked her back.
Then, someone came in her room.
Cossette
Breakfast is ready.
Cossette was one of the people that Yuriana ruined in her past life.
Yuriana had loved her so much to the point that she made her a duke's daughter.
But soon enough, Cossette got more famous than Yuriana because she was gorgeous.
Cossette took advantage of her fame and spread rumors and embarrassing secrets about Yuriana.
So, Yuriana decided to starve Cossette to death in her basement.
Cossette
That's fine, I'll tell your family.
Cossette
I don't recall.. Maybe check your calendar.
Once Cossette left the room, Yuriana ran to search for her calendar.
Yuriana
( Six years into the past !? )
Yuriana
( I haven't even met Evan ! )
Yuriana
Maybe it's for the best I don't.
She walked over to her mirror.
Yuriana
( I look the same. )
Yuriana
( I guess it's true that I never age. )
After a bit, she heard a knock on the door.
Suddenly, memories of what Yuriana did to Belle flooded her brain.
Yuriana
What are you.. doing here?
Belle
Your maid told me you didn't eat breakfast.
Belle
I was a little worried.
Yuriana was happy that Belle cared , but then she didn't want what happened before to happen again.
Yuriana
Mhm. I'm just not hungry.
Yuriana
If you want to eat don't wait for me.
Yuriana gave her a cold look.
Belle
If you want to talk I'm here.
Yuriana
( Hm, I wonder if I should say hello to my family? )
She quickly wore a pretty green dress and went downstairs.
Leon
Why did you not come down for breakfast?
Yuriana
( Mom looks okay. )
Yuriana
( This must be before my father became an abusive man, then. )
Reina
S-So! What do you guys want for lunch?
Leon
Sweetheart, did I not tell you we have chefs to make us food now?
Reina
Ah.. I'm still not used to royalty life!
Leon and Reina both laughed.
It was nice to see them as a happy couple for once.
Yuriana
So, how is Selena?
Reina
Her therapists still can't diagnose her.. but one thinks it's depression.
Yuriana
( What a smart guy. Selena was indeed diagnosed with depression, but that's later on in the future. )
Yuriana
I'll go out to a bakery right now.
Yuriana
Tell Selena I said hi.
Leon
Would you like to take your guards with you?
Leon
( Why is she being cold? )
Yuriana went outside for the first time without any guards.
Yuriana
( I'd rather die again than have 'him' escort me. )
The guard that usually escorts her was a son of a count.
He usually flirted with her and gave her bad vibes.
Suya
Hello! How may I help you?
She sat down on a seat beside the window.
Yuriana
I'd like a lemon tart, please.
Suya
Of course, your majesty.
The bakery owner hurried to make the order.
Yuriana
( Oh how I missed when people treated me as a normal human being. )
Suya
Your lemon tart is ready!
When Yuriana ate, she felt a sense of deja-vu.
Yuriana
Just like the old days.
While Yuriana was walking back to her house.
Azron
We should maybe.. meet up sometime?
Yuriana felt jealousy like she did in her past life.
But she chose to ignore it.
She was afraid to hurt people the same way she did before.
Belle
I really hope you don't misunderstand.. I don't even know who this guy is.
Belle
We hung out a little bit.
Yuriana
Misunderstand what?
Yuriana
Why should I care?
Belle
( Why is she acting so different? )
Belle
( She would be jealous if I talk to anyone. )
Then she straightened her back and walked away.
A Happy Birthday
It's been one week since Yuriana went back to the past.
Although it's not obvious, she feels lots of fear in her heart.
She tried to ignore all her best friends and family, afraid to hurt them again.
It was her mom's birthday.
Cossette
Miss, are you going to get her presents?
Cossette
( She never orders just two. )
Cossette
What are you planning on getting her?
Yuriana
A fancy dress and..
Yuriana
( Suya was a magnificent chef. But nobody knew about her skills until a year after now. )
Yuriana
Can you bake me a huge cake?
Suya
How huge are we talking?
This shocked everyone in the bakery.
Cossette
Miss.. we can't order that!
Yuriana
Hm? But I know she can do it.
Suya
( Why would she order that from me? )
Yuriana
I'll pay you with nine golden coins.
Yuriana
Make it vanilla flavored with strawberry icing, you know what to do.
Cossette
*Whispering* Is there a reason behind this choice?..
Yuriana
( I just want her to have a happy birthday. )
Looking at the huge cake felt like a fantasy.
Reina
You really outdid it this year Yuriana.
Yuriana
I have something else.
Yuriana snapped her fingers, and then dozens of maids came in with multiple dresses.
Cossette
Weren't you going to buy just one?
Yuriana
I changed my mind.
Yuriana laughed at her mother's surprised expression.
This was truly different from her past life.
Reina
"Thank you my daughter.."
"Reina smiled, knowing that she already had enough jewlery."
Yuriana
"Are you not happy with the jewlery?"
Yuriana
"I can get another set."
Reina
"Please Yuriana, I just want to be left alone."
Yuriana
"I'll tell dad about the affair if you don't tell me what you want."
Yuriana
"Do you want another black eye from him today?"
Yuriana
"That's what I thought."
Yuriana
"Maids! Get me the red diamond."
Yuriana
( Such a horrible person I was. )
Reina
Thank you, my daughter. This is really a happy birthday.
Then suddenly, her dad walked in.
Reina
Honey, Yuriana got me these.
Leon
...I got her a dress too.
Leon
( But they can't compare to this. )
Reina
My darling, I'd love to see it.
Leon
But you already have such pretty ones.
Reina
Nonsense! Anything I get from you is better than the biggest gem in the world.
A few maids entered, bringing a gorgeous light green and yellow dress.
It was laced with pearls and white jewls.
And it wasn't showing too much skin.
Though it wasn't as high quality as Yuriana's gifts, it's beauty touched Reina's heart.
Reina
This is so beautiful.
She kissed him on the cheek.
Yuriana
( I'm right here.. )
