"You know to something's we need to find answers ourselves " Winston sayes vaguely . " So you mean you are not telling me ? " I ask him . " That's one way to say . " I feel like he wants to end this conversation and wants me to act up on it but I don't what to do , why is Leo using me and why does he think like that of my parents . I want the answers to that but winston has already ended the conversation .

" You know something's aren't supposed to be told but found " " You are now just saying the same thing in another language . " " Ok just tell me what you will do now I'll help . " Why does he want to help me I want to ask but I know I'll be met with the same answers as you helped with the carriage .

" Ok now tell me how do I prove my parents innocent to Leo . " " Judge needs proof to inspect the case properly . " " What proof should I give him ? " " Well i don't know , maybe find your parents ? " I stop at this maybe winston doesn't know that my parents are dead or he is just trying to get answers out of me . " They are not anymore " " oh ... So what now ? How to prove their innocence ? " I think about this and almost forget that I'm still in his arms .

I'm back in my room , I get inside the washroom and look at myself in the mirror , I need to get a grip , many things have happened but they are not just somethings I would have done , Defora has changed me so much that I can't explain it . I take out my earrings and take a hot bath and my shoulders relax . Some weight lifts off my shoulders when I take a hot bath . I imagine what next I'll do . What plan to execute and most importantly how did my parents come into the frame of my marriage ? I get out of the bath and put on a robe . My hair is all wet and use and soft towels to dry them off . While drying my mind spines back to Winston holding me perfectly in his arms like its a daily routine , his hair raked through my hair to calm me down and it was the best feeling ever like I could stay forever in that position .

I walked out of my bathroom and lied on my bed for the first time in years , my mind was unsettled by my thoughts usually sleeping helped me in that case but today sleep was no word in my dictionary. But I'm the daughter of Camille so ofcourse I'm wise and witty and the plan I'm going to execute is not what Leo is expecting .
