They couldn’t figure out if she was an enemy or a plotter but she definitely was a witch. In no time, Mir and Vinasaka found themselves chopping wood for her.
“Yes, that’s good boys! Put your muscles to good use and help out this old woman,” she said, proud at her own judgement.
Vinasaka frowned at her remark, “Old woman you say?”
The woman walked towards him and smacked him hard on his head, “At least i am older than you for sure!”
“Yes yes, you old hag.” He said the words without looking up and thus almost missed the fire that started burning in her eyes and in a moment could eat him up.
Mir found it really strange as to how frank and free the woman was with them, especially Vinasaka, the youngest prince of the Heart kingdom. At a corner of his mind, he was disappointed by the fact that he couldn’t treat Vinasaka with the same frankness as he is being treated now and on the other hand, he was curious to find out how she would react once she found out who Vinasaka was.
