The Start of A War

Tolkien

Everything was a blur.

After Jace's Dad told us the truth about her mother (who turned out to be the enemy), Jun convinced us to go out to celebrate Jace's birthday.

With everything else that happened, we didn't even noticed it was already the tenth of November. The twins still looked like they were trying to take in the things they just heard, but they agreed with Jun's plan.

Although Jace promised her dad that she wouldn't go after Alice McKinley, she stayed quiet and remained by the window with her laptop after her father left. I knew that it was more of a shock for her, knowing her own mother tried to get rid of her while she was still in her womb. And still trying to until now.

After a bit of thinking and talking, Aeron and Elli seemed to accept what they learned about their Aunt, and they were more determined to confirm everything with their mother.
