Life Beyond the Doors

Chapter 23 : Disappearance

Marlin stood there not understanding what to think or do. More like she's scared by the fact what more is gonna come ?

She was more in a dire situation because she think what if she has to go originally to there she belonged and leave her precious family for good.

"No, I don't even want to believe it . I wont accept it.    No, no....please." She collapsed right in-front of the door which was half opened. She can still see the garden where she ran.

From a certain distance the house can be seen too.

"Judging by her parents and Loren's reaction it seems like they don't know anything about this or they would have confronted her about this thing ...", she thought.

Marlin took a deep breathe-

"Its still not over yet. I still have hopes...", she really hoped its all a lie that she doesn't have to go back to that shitty place .

But she cant actually wish for it to all end because she also has her dear person there and that is -

Her grandma.

Well now hesitating wont bring in any solution for now. It seems like there is no error in this world so i have to check out the original world.

Marlin then stood up determined not to let anything bother her . She took a breathe again then slide through the door then she closed it . Her worrisome face was still there. She looked here and there.

She then went near the home .

"Marlin....?", a voice came from behind her.

As she looked back in rush she saw Dina ; her youngest sister calling out to her . While Marlin was opening her mouth to answer she came running towards Marlin which startled her of course .

She grabbed her hair while making a total mess, "You trash, where you were since yesterday? Did you plan to escape from this place ..? As if !", she said angrily.

".....yesterday?", Marlin was shocked.

Dina added and said, "Yes, you idiot. You even forgot when you escaped . We have looked everywhere for you but we couldn't find you except checking the garden. Looks like you were hiding here all along?"

"Dina, at least release me, it's hurting a lot. Release me so that i can explain...", Marlin sobbed.

It was painful that she still holds her hair tightly in her grasp. She wasn't letting it go while she said.

Dina shouted, "Why should i ...? For you sister-

"Marlin?!", Madame Rosalia came rushing in.

"?"

"Wow, what a bother . I already am dealing with a troublesome person already now another stepped in ugh", Marlin thought while being pissed.

"Have some patience, Marlin", she said to herself.

Madame Rosalia had a scowl face . After seeing her mother ; Dina released her in a haste. She doesn't want to show her unsightly self but she knows very well what her mom would do .

As expected she was right.

After Madame Rosalia came towards her . Marlin wasn't mentally prepared what she was about to expected . That was a harsh thing to accept.

                                     *slaps*

Marlin was shocked from the action.
