Reaching Out

An hour earlier…

Lora stood there seeing the things that had been the source of her pain all along.

She saw the scene from her childhood. It was Lisa's birthday party.

She had heard the people who were planning to harm Lisa. And what she did?

She ran away in fear, threw her friend to the ground…

She was the worst….only if she could have gathered her courage earlier. Only if she could have informed her mother earlier…

"Don't worry, Lora. You are a brave girl….everything will be alright.." Those were her mother's words when she finally told her what had happened. 

Her mother contacted Lisa's mother. Everything was going to be fine now...

She felt relieved….

"But you knew you were too late…" the voice of her reflection rang behind her.

Right, she was late…..Lisa's mother passed away shortly after….

It was from her illness…

"Do you really believe that? Did she looked ill to you?" The reflection asked with an amused tone.
