Chapter 49

Soon, we reached our destination in front of a huge pair of doors. My heartbeat accelerated as I knew Velma was waiting for me inside. I grabbed Andre's arm tightly. To reassure me, he put his hand over mine, sending the warmth he can't convey with words.

I need more time but time can't be borrowed.

Andre pushed the door as an amused smile painted on his lips. He must be mocking me in his mind. I am glad I learnt Anais talked to her in the past. I mustn't show I wasn't her. I am not used to meeting big people. The first time I met the moon goddess, I was so overwhelmed that I forgot the words I intended to say. I was lucky she wasn't a bad person. She smiled at me warmly.
