...Red rose petals that fall on the blood. That's how I love you....
...No matter the drops of blood, that resembles your red. Its beautiful meaning will not diminish....
Edward.
Cup cake was glared at. Birthday gift that he got directly for the first time. His father always left him to the secretary. There was no special celebration for him. The girl in the school was just giggling, so noisy, putting a gift on her desk.
But this gift from Rachel? He was silent, a smile on his face.
"He was just a lump of meat that happened to be able to walk. It doesn't matter in my life." That was what was in Edward's brain right now, picking up that slightly crushed cup cake. The tamm? It's not important to him.
"Rachel, let's go to the room and light a candle." He said with a smile, a child who can smile sincerely.
"Emmm!" Rachel nodded, smilingly following him.
"My sweet edward! When you grow up, you won't be a serial killer like in a novel. Holy hooch! How mature and good is this child! Even harsh words can't!" Inner Rachel, wanted to scream out the taste. Change the nature and nature of his beloved character.
Walk following him, step by step.
Till.
Brak!
Tamtam who was emotionally throwing an ashtray, but slightly missed almost on Rachel's shoulder."You're just a waiter! And the other bastard! How dare you to me!" his yell.
Ashtray that fell on the floor. A smile on Edward's face. The boy laughed and picked up an ashtray. The atmosphere was silent for a moment, for some reason Tamtam gulped his saliva roughly.
"The debt must be paid sooner or later." Edward said the words with blood flowing from his temple. Due to the collision of the corner of the table that previously experienced. But strangely as the blood flowed, the corners of his lips were still raised.
"E... Edward let's go to the room, treat your wounds. Remember you can swear or speak harsh words. But you can't hold a grudge." Sweet words from Rachel. He was answered with a nod by Edward.
While inexplicably Tamtam trembled, gulping a rough saliva. Maybe an instinct to survive. He hurt Edward, but somehow himself was scared.

"Rachel, this is painful..." Edward said when Rachel treated her temple.
"How sweet! May I pinch your cheek!" Rachel said, her little hand that had just treated Edward's wound, starting to pinchew her cheek slowly. It feels really supple and soft. It's insane! There's no way this kid grew up to be a psychopath.
"Lay down!" Edward dropped himself on the bed. Followed by Rachel.
"We are friends. Friends will not leave each other. So you can't leave me at all!" Said the 10-year-old boy, hugging the 8-year-old tightly.
Rachel nodded."We're friends, friends don't leave friends. Unless you already have a partner to live with."
"So friends have a time limit to be together?" question from Edward. Rachel hugged him patting his back. Hoping to appease the antagonist who has this bad childhood life.
Rachel nodded, saying no according to her age. Remember that! She is only a novel reader who can somehow get caught up in the world of the novel she once read."It does have limits. One day you will find the person you love like a prince to find a beautiful princess. I'm the same, when I grow up I'll find one."
The boy simply fell silent, tightening his embrace. No words were spoken by him.

Herself a kara, it's good not to be left in the orphanage. So the thing to do right now, as a full-planning side character is, stick at the feet of the antagonist (Edward).
It had been two months that he had been trapped in this strange novel world for him. The novel is set in the modern world. But remembering the novel's story should have started when Alira (the female lead) worked. So today, it is still an era where technology has not been so advanced.
Never mind a smart phone, even a cafe does not exist. Therefore to get education allowance, luxury as a servant, a lot of pocket money. Er, wrong! It means saving the lives of the many people Edward will kill in the future, as well as for Edward's happy childhood. He had to contact Edward's father, who lived abroad.
Telling how Edward gets violence from his fat and greedy aunt and uncle. Carrying a pile of savings money that is actually not much. He was given Edward's father's international phone number. He went to the wartel (telecommunication stall, similar to a public telephone. But do not use coins, pay as per call).
He began to open one of the rooms. His hand moved quickly pressing the number impatiently.
"Good afternoon, who is it?" question from someone from across the street.
"I'm Edward's servant! Can I talk to the big master!?" the tanya was quick, gulping at the spitty staring at the fast running balance.
"Wait a minute." The words spoken by the secretary. Until the voice of another man was heard.
"What's wrong?" A truly charismatic voice. But then again, the running balance left the boy dumbfounded.
"Master! This is my servant Edward! Young master got beat up! Beated! I even asked you to say I want a new car! Though his new car was used by his father and mother Tamtam!" Super lightning quick quick short sentence from Rachel, turn off the call quickly. Breathe in deeply. Want to cry it feels, the money stacked up leaving only 700 rupiah. Just for a fucking international call.
"My money!" rachel cried in the end. Crazy one! How expensive is communication in this day and age. Quickly wipe away her own tears."It can't be like this. It's called investing! After Edward's success, as a little leech attached to the antagonist's foot, I'll be a fat leech."
That's what Rachel had in mind. A smile on his face. Already able to accept himself transmigrating into this parallel world. All he has to do is live well. Making the antagonist he bought successful, match him with the female lead.
After that, he can live happily ever after. Although he is not sure, because Rachel in the original novel story is only contained in a few lines of sentence. He died of severe illness during Edward's teenage years.
But her and Rachel in the novel are different. Rachel in the novel is only a shy servant child, whereas she is a leech attached to the young master. Moreover, he in his previous life was a candidate for a doctor.
A smile on his face. He paid using a lot of dime on the wartel keeper. Then bring it to Edward.

While elsewhere.
Edward smiled from the balcony when a neighbor happened to pass by, while Tamtam was eating a doughnut on a swing. Blowing a special whistle, a whistle that makes no sound.
Surprisingly anj*ng who happened to pass by was disturbed. Run towards Tamtam without barking.
"Agghhhh! Pain help me!" shouted Tamtam, when the anj*ng attacked him.
"Errgh!"
"Errgh!"
Two servants try to save Tamtam. Hit the anj*Ng using a wooden beam.
However, a scratch, a bite. How many stitches will Tamtam receive! I don't know the kid just cried being put in the car. To be taken to the hospital.
Edward was silent. Still sitting on the balcony of his room, his face smiled as the gentle breeze greeted. A special whistle whose voice can only be heard anj*ng or bat, that's what he just sounded.
"You can touch me. But not to touch Rachel..."
