Chapter 21

Aella smiled as she stepped inside of their house. A lot of memories entered her mind. She put down her things on the floor and opened the closed windows to allow the winds to enter the window.

As soon as she opened the window, she saw the flowers that she was used to water every morning. Their neighbors.

Aella looked at the girls. Febbie, Lyndsey and Barbara came home with her.

"You're house is cute and cozy." Febbie said as she sat at the living room and her eyes roamed around. Lyndsey and Barbara also observed the inside of the house.

Their house is a little bit bigger than Kai's house. It has

"Welcome to our house. You're free to roam around of our house." Aella's mother welcomed the girls.

"Mom, where is Kaella?" Aella asked her mother.

"She is with your aunt Mellie. She will be here now any moment. I will just cooked our lunch." Her mother said and went to the kitchen.

Aella slowly recovered physically but her mental state is still wounded. Nightmares are visiting her every night in the infirmary. Sometimes Kai is included and it became her fear.

There is no day that she didn't think about Kai. How is he? Is he well? How is he treated by her father? If he also think about her. Aella regrated that she let Kai go to his father. It's her fault. She instructed him to get his father's trust.

After lunch the ladies took a nap inside their room and good thing her little sister came home and she wasn't get bored. Her sister is talkative to the point that she don't have a chance to talk.

Kaella is also a wicked kid and she learned that her sister likes to asked the fishermen to take her with them so that she could get a fish too. Kaella told her that their mom scolded her whenever she would sneak out to fish with the fishermen.

"Kaella, you need to ask our mother permission whenever you want to go fish. Have you tried the river near us? They also have fish." Aella said to her sister.

"But mom won't let me and I don't know about the river having a fish on it. So, why bother to get her permission, mom won't let go anyway. She would say, Kaella no fishing for you." Kaella said to her. Aella wants to laugh when her mom's eyes widened at what Kaella said. Her sister even acted like their mother.

"Kaella, it's not right though. You'll give mom a heart attack." Aella said to Kaella and tried not to laugh at her sister.

Four Days passed after they went home. The ladies did go back to the city for their work and Aella let them go because that is what she want for the girls. To have their freedom. Keiran full filled her wish before she went home. Febbie said she will find a work and an apartment for the mean time.

She remembered that was a maid on Keiran's mansion and after Keiran discovered Febbie's secret, they never talked again to each other. This information was told by Febbie. Aella feels sad for Febbie. She knows that Febbie likes Keiran.

The attack of Richart's group is also continued and Aella is confused why they aren't attacking her village. She has an idea why. It's who? Richart don't want to attack her mother's village?

About her mother, they never had a serious talk. Aella never opened up the information she discovered about her mother. It's like she was still hurt and don't want to hear the truth from her mother.

Aella and her sister is currently beside of the river. Trying to catch a fish. It's been an hour since they started and but they're unfortunate. Not even a single fish was put on their basket.
