"Never trust others too much, remember the devil was once an angel"
**********
Its been 20 years since she was left at the front door of a priest, a nice man who lived with two others who were his gardener and his cook, Mr Everette and Ms Caroline.
The priest, Mr Percy has also giving her the best way of life he could ever give to anyone, he taught her the way of God also training her in some area In the cathedral.
As time goes on Erica grew more beautiful, with curling brown hair, beautiful bright eyes, nice body ,having a cute and charming smile
She gave the priest so much joy with everything she did.
Returning from her day job, she was feeling tired and hungry, "hope something has been made by Ms Caro." She taught to herself she walked into the kitchen hearing someone speaking at the back yard
She walked slowly until she got the clear view of Ms Caro looking sideways as she answered the phone, without noticing her presence.
"Hello? Yes?" Ms Caro said in a hushed voice as though she had something to hide. "Of course I know you've found her parents....of course I know everything you baffon! We can't let her parents get to her!.......of course I know what would happen if she gets the black stone, I'm not a moron, I know the legend like the back of my palms".
She said with much venom, that Erica could feel it from the door.
"Well, if she happens to get her tiny goody-two-shoe hands on that stone, then we'd just kill the damn brat!!!" She whispered yelled to the person at the other end of the phone.
Erica felt really frightened at this point. "Who did Ms Caro want to kill, and why did she have so much hate and anger directed to that person"
She heard her saying her goodbyes on the phone and she panicked. She ran as fast as she could out of the house to an unknown destination she just needed to get away from her
She ran and ran, letting her own feet carry her to wherever they would, as people kept staring at her as if she had lost it.
She might have seen someone calling all but she didn't really care.
She had to get away
She couldn't believe the person she lived with was actually a murderer. She didn't know when she got to the cathedral, but she was grateful to her subconsciousness for bringing here there.
She ran straight into Mr Everette the gardener at the cathedral
"Come my child what's the problem?" For he had already seen her from afar running, she knew she had to lie cause she can't trust any just yet till she finds out who they were and why she felt they wanted her dead.
"Oh Mr Everette I forgot my pouch, and I came to get it" it hurts her that she had to lie which was one rare thing in her.
But what choice does she have "are you sure my child? Seems to me something is after you" he looked over her shoulder to be convinced that no one was after her.
"No! Nothing... not...not at all" she stuttered trying to catch her breathe.
"Oh how I wished he would stop asking questions" she taught silently, "OK if you say so" He said as he watched her storm off, deep down he was convinced that something is after her, although he knew everything about her.
But he couldn't tell her for he feared of her safety "could it be she now knows? oh, that couldn't be" he taught to himself as he walked out of the cathedral.
