PORTERS STREET, 17.

THE NEXT MORNING,

Alondra woke up with a severe headache... She went to the bathroom to shower up and get ready for work.

There's a lot to do at work. Also, she had to go to Summerville with Alina, admission is still in progress and they can't risk missing this chance.

She came downstairs and met her biggest shock.Alina was already dressed waiting for her. "Good morning," She greeted her courteously as she stood up on her feet.

She questioned Alondra about her look, Alondra on the other hand debated whether to complement her or let this one slide.

The last time she gave her a complement it was a disaster... And that's exactly what she's trying to prevent...for the first time in forever they've now started to agree on something. This feels unfamiliar.

She glanced at her from her to toe and then gave out an unexpected comment. "Official, you look official" she told her. Confusion was scattered on her face...she didn't get what Alondra was trying to say.

Alondra noticed it and then used another method to make her understand.

Oh, I guess you didn't hear me right. I said... You...look...official. Alondra repeated as she  demonstrated with her hand.

Her strategy worked. Alina smiled at her. Alondra could swallow all the saliva left in her mouth. She smiled at her for the first time and that too genuinely. This calls for a celebration 😂.

If she's to compare the old Alina to the girl in her presence,the gab will be too wide for the old one. Her way of doing things have taken up a new phase.

This includes her way of dressing, eating (she remembers the first time she was given a fork,it was a total blast 😂she used it to comb her hair instead of using it to eat), the hair is still messy though she took off those weird scrunchies and jewelry from it.

She kept them in a small suck and hid it drawer. One strange thing about her is her bracelet,she  never goes anywhere without wearing it. Honestly,she has never took it off.

Whenever she feels troubled,she hold it tightly as if hugging it. Alondra was engrossed in finding out the mystery behind that bracelet.

She had taken a close look when Alina falls asleep. There was nothing interesting about it, except for an old traditional style of weaving...it's made from straw with a name attached to it. Well she'd referred to it as a name since she had no idea about it.

She's starting to mingle with the new environment and that's one great achievement.

Her excitement ceased when reality hit her. She was elated by Alina's sudden change of mind to study in Summerville yet she never found out the motive behind this decision.

The topic of Alina's education ended in an argument each time it's being brought up. The last time almost got her raising her hand at her.

The girl had changed since she returned from wherever she went. All of a sudden she's interested in school. The atmosphere of trouble spreaded like a disease which could get worse if not controlled and that's a perfect description for Alina.

"A detective doesn't let her guards down, she's capable and reliable enough to find answers to every hidden mystery." Whatever it is,she will definitely figure it out.
