Seira leaned on the cold solid wall. She can feel her heart pounding, ringing in her ears. She had no idea if it was from her running like she was in a marathon or from what happened inside the forest. Those flowers stuck to her mind. She didn't have the time to listen to the servant waiting for her outside the forest as her mind was preoccupied.
The eyes of Bella and Almira were saying the same thing back there. She knew it. But she had no courage, no, she didn't want to voice the word out nor thought explicitly of it. There's no way. No.
But she felt her heart sink when even herself, she sounded desperate convincing herself of that possibility.
She dropped her stare on her shaking hands. Cold sweats beads on her forehead.
With a deep inhale of air that seemed to leave her out for a while, she knocked on the wooden door before letting herself in. She peeked her head out and saw Ms. Cora standing in the middle of her small room.
