After the attack at the palace last night, Daulla and Das spent their time together and got closer than they already were.

Waking up the next day, she tried to show her n.a.k.e.d body to Das. When Das was about to touch her, Lier came in and took him to the bathroom.

After Lier and Das were done with the bath, Daulla was all alone in the palace.

Everyone was at the cemetery, while Daulla started fixing Das' bed.

"I can't believe this is really happening"

'The King died and…' she placed her hand on the c.h.e.s.t and said, "I died too"

'I have no idea why or how I am alive'.

'It feels like fate. Like the god is favoring me'.

'I have died two times, and still came back'.

She took a deep breath and said, "In this third life, I will do my best to love Lil Das and make him happy"

'He has already given me more happiness than I could have ever thought of'.

After fixing the bed, she started cleaning the room.

The flower petals were all over the room, scattered as if they had fallen from the trees.

She took a basket in her hand and started picking up all the flowers.

As she was picking up the flowers, she smelled one of them and said, "Even though the smell is added to them, the fake will stay fake"

'Lil Das loves trees and nature. I wanted to make this as realistic as I could. So that he could make love with his girlfriend. But…' she glanced around the room and said, "Who would have imagined this would happen"

'I am sure Lil Das was also disappointed.

'I still remember how excited he was for last night. He tried various ways to make me jealous by saying that, but I never got jealous'.

She formed a bitter smile on her face and thought, 'Though I was jealous. The Lil Das I love was going to make love with some other girl, I didn't want that'

"I was kind of happy that he couldn't make love with his girlfriend. Even though I am just a maid… I am jealous. In fact, I should be grateful to his girlfriend that she is sharing him with Lady Lier and me. No other girl would have done that. And here I am, getting happy because he couldn't make love with his girlfriend"

'I am so selfish. Even thirty-five years ago, my selfishness hurt that boy, the only boy who had the guts to confess to me and make me fall in love with me'.

"I wonder if that was love, because the feeling I am having right now is much more stronger than that time"

'If I had accepted that boy's confession, then maybe I would have had a son and a daughter, a family like Ange. But if that had happened, I wouldn't be able to love Lil Das'.

"Whatever happens, happens for the best, huh?"

I wonder if that's true.

"The King died, and that's definitely not a good thing"

'Ever since Queen Layla died, he has always been paranoid about getting attacked. He made sure no one ever hurt his family or friends, but…' a tear fell down from her eyes as she said, "He died in an attack", and wiped it.

'Ange must be sad, and I can't do anything to comfort her'.

She took a deep breath and said, "I may not be Daulla now, but I am still here, at least from the outside".

She got up and put the basket on the bed, and left the room.

She walked into the empty hallway and stopped in front of Angela's room. She took some deep breaths and entered the room. She glanced around and sat on the bed.

"This is too cruel"

'I can't even go to the king's funeral'.

She waited for ten minutes, but Angela didn't return.

"Should I go out and find her?"

"No," she shook her head and said, "I must stay here"

Even though she said that she couldn't hold herself back and stood from the bed.

She walked to the door and opened it a little, peeking her head out of the door, and glancing around.

"It's been nearly thirty minutes since the funeral ended, and Ange isn't here"

'I don't see Lil Das and Lady Lier, as well as Lady Lirole anywhere."

'She closed the door and walked to the bed to sit on it.

'The maids are coming back, but they aren't here'

"Should I go and check on them myself?"

She was getting worried more than nervous.

She clearly understands the pain they are going through, after all, she has been going through the same pain.

'I must not show my weak side to anyone, not even Lil Das'.

"Though I showed many of my embarrassing sides to him. I hope he doesn't think I am weird. I even made some bold moves on him, even though he was sad and lost"

After the event last night, she was happy enough to make a move on Das. It was her third time coming back from dying, she didn't want to miss this chance.

Her face was going red in embarrassment after remembering what she did last night.

"Idiot Daulla, why did you have to say those things to him. You were acting like some kind of cheap girl"

She did think she would have never imagined. That was something she always wanted to do with him, but there were many blocking on her way. But now, she is finally free.

Free from her duty as a head maid, free from her duty as the head of the security team, free from all her bonding. She is finally a free girl, and she wants to live now, like any other girl.

Her age may have been of an old woman, but after spending ten years in the slumber, her personality has been changed to how she was when she was a teenager.

It was hard for everyone, including the King and Angela, to accept her after she woke up from the ten years long slumber. 

Daulla didn't interact with anyone, not even Angela, her childhood friend whom she thought of as more than a sister. She was confused, shocked, and in pain. Didn't want to know what happened to her, and why or how this happened to her. Why was she alive, or what's wrong with her body?

She looked so ugly that she didn't want to show her face to anyone, nor wanted to look in a mirror. And after knowing that Das had forgotten all about her, she wanted to die.

There were times when Angela doubted whether she was the same Daulla she once knew, or not. But all doubts were clear once she started interacting with them.

After spending some time with Angela and Lirole, Daulla was back to her usual self. But there were some changes in her personality.

When she was in high school, she was Angela's bodyguard. And after waking up from slumber, she kept acting like Angela's bodyguard, until Angela told her she isn't her bodyguard anymore.

It wasn't like she had forgotten everything; she had just lost her sense of thinking and processing all her memories and thoughts.

After around two months, her condition got better. But there was something different, she had a system inside her.

She tried to tell Angela and the King about it, but they brushed it off, thinking she might still be mentally unstable.

They weren't blaming her or anything, and just to confirm what Daulla was saying, they did the full body check-up on Daulla and found nothing unusual.

Daulla knew it was something she couldn't prove until she found out that her wounds were healing faster than before.

He said that if this got out in public, her life could be in danger. And that's what happened last night. She was killed because she had the system.

No one knows if she won't be attacked again, now that she doesn't have a system. But there is one thing she knows for sure, and that is to rely on Das.

She knows about Das' system and her condition. She wants to help him in every possible way she can, but--

Creak~

Daulla was fixing the shelf as the door opened and Angela walked in. 

Ruined makeup, tear marks all over her face, messy hair, messy clothes, Angela walked in.

After entering the room, her gaze automatically fell on the person near the shelf, on Daulla.

Angela wiped her tears and sat on the bed.

Daulla slowly walked to Angela and stood in front of her.

Noticing Daulla was standing in front of her, Angela got up and sat on the chair.

Angela had no idea that the girl was Daulla, not Sherley.

She thought Daulla was here to clean the room.

Daulla took a deep breath and walked to the chair Angela was sitting on.

Tears kept falling from Angela's eyes. No matter how hard she wiped, no matter how many times she wiped, the tears never stopped.

Daulla gulped down and slowly opened her mouth.

"A--"

"Can you give me a glass of water?", said Angela.

Daulla nodded and walked to the table in front of the bed. She picked up the jug and a glass.

After filling the glass, she walked to Angela and gave her the glass.

Daulla once again opened her mouth to say something, but seeing Angela drinking water as if she hasn't drank in days, she closed her mouth and waited for Angela to finish drinking the water.

After drinking the water, Angela gave the glass to Daulla saying, "Can you pat me?"

Tears fell down from Daulla's eyes, and she hugged Angela.
