I trembled. I couldn't utter a word as I stared at the person in front of me.

Backflashes flashed through my mind as I stared at my sister. She wasn't dead. She never was. Because she was standing right in front of me, staring at me, reaching out.

My eyes brimmed with tears. I didn't feel like she was a stranger at all, despite not seeing her for so long. Suddenly, I spotted a strand of silver hair in my sister's hair. I blinked, squinting. What?

Jessica.

However, as I glanced up to meet Julia's eyes once again, I realized not only did she share the same features as me, but also Julia.

"You look like Jessica," I unconsciously murmured.

Really, Amanda? You haven't seen your sister in years, and that's the first thing you say to her?!

Jessica's smile faded slightly and her eyes dimmed. Her smile looked sad all of a sudden. 

She sat down on a bench and I joined her.

Then she said something that shook me to the core: "I am Jessica."

My heart shattered. "So you mean.... You're not my sister......... but Jessica." I felt like my heart was attacked. H-how....

I truly thought she was my sister...

The woman standing in front of me, looked out of the window. The cabin was so quiet. No explosions could be heard.

"I am your sister," she said. 

I gasped. "How can you be two people?" I blurted out, shocked. I didn't know what to think.

The woman took a deep breath. "I am Julia Kite, sister of Amanda Kite, and five years ago I changed my name to Jessica and dyed my color hair to silver."

"What?! Why?" 

I didn't understand.

"I should start from the beginning of the story, or else everything will be confusing," Julia said, tugging on her shirt. "But first you should know something, I am your stalker."

"...!"

When I first saw Julia, I had already suspected Julia as the stalker, but then that thought was quickly forgotten.

"But why? Why would you stalk your own sister?" 

"Because I needed to protect you. Protect you from the emperor." She looked at her hands. "Protect you from my beloved."

Wait. My sister still likes Cedric after five years? 

Julia seemed to read my mind. "Yes, I still love him. Deeply. But... I don't know if he feels the same way anymore...." Julia looked teary as she looked down. But then she looked up, trying to hide her sadness in a fake smile. "I should start the story."

Julia began talking, "Theo probably already told you most of the story, so I'll tell you the story from my point of view: On the day I met Cedric, I got kidnapped at midnight. When I opened my eyes I found myself in a cabin. That cabin was bigger than this one."

Julia stopped talking to gesture at the cabin before continuing, "I was faced with a man with a messy, cookie-crumb-filled beard. He was bald and he was looking at me with hearts in his eyes."

Julia shivered at the thought. Her words sent a shiver down my spine. 

"'What a beautiful lady', he had said," Julia said, lowering her voice. "Then he used his filthy hands to lift my chin, inspecting me. He told me that I was in a forest and underground."
