Author's note:

Hey! sorry for not updating sooner as I said I would. I got malaria and was bed-ridden for more than a week :)

As I finally reach the duchy Darlene comes running to me, clearly worried about where I have been. I can't let anyone know about what actually happened. Wouldn't want to attract any unnecessary attention now would I?. I go straight to my room and slump on the bed. The orange ray of sunshine coming on my bed made me relax. I stare at the ceiling as I wonder why everything is going haywire. Do I really have divine powers? Why is Alexander behaving this way? what happened to Emma before the "incident at the pond"?. I know for a fact that there is more to it than Darlene is letting me know. Can I really trust her?. She seems to care for me but to what extent is it real?. Why have I barely seem Emma's family yet?. According to the book  they had a good relationship.

It really is relief that I have the knowledge and talents of Emma but it is scary that I have no memories. It would be easier for me if the characters would act the way they did in the book. Alexander would have happily given me the annulment and I could have lived a happy life away from the main characters. Is this the ripple effect?. Did my small change in actions caused all these changes?. After the temple incident Alexander must have hired the subordinate by now. As I stared at the ceiling I noticed a small line in it, as if it was a false ceiling. I climb the headrest but it wasn't enough.

 The ceiling was quite high so I dragged the chair of her dressing table and put it on the bed. The chair was damn heavy but somehow I managed to do it. I climbed on the chair while as the chair shaked. The bed was really an unsturdy chair to put a chair on. I touch the spot on the ceiling. I didn't know what to do so I just punched it and it worked. A book fell on my head, a heavy one. I cursed under my breath as I managed to get of the chair without breaking any boned. I quickly put the chair back before anyone notices anything. 

The hole on ceiling... I'll find a way to fix that later. I grab the hardcover book. Was It Emma's?. I sit on the floor as I run my hand across the cover. It was covered in some blood stains, tiny drops. I opened it to see delicate old pages. The first page was the date I woke up in Emma's body, strange... I continue reading it. After about 20 pages the entry starts with the same date but a different entry. It continues in the same pattern. The letters with which the pages were filled with were unfamilliar to me. Whose is this?. My gut feeling says its Emma since I don't think anyone else could come and hide such a thing without being noticed. Why is it that I can only read the date but not the entry?. It's been a week since I woke up in Emma's body and the dates are one week ago, but why are the pages and ink so old?. Why is the book covered in blood stains?. Why was it hidden in her ceiling?. What language is this?. Could this book answer as to why everything is a mess?
