Chapter 26 Grandma

Ryna told the driver to stop near a big gate. She gave the driver money and came into the house, opening the door. There was a big room in sight with many paintings hanging.

It was a beautiful sight to see. Beside the area has been closed for some time the things were still carefully placed at their place. There can't be seen an ounce of dust. Looks like someone has taken care of the room from time to time. The paintings in the room were made with very carefulness, like the soul has been poured, making them. There were paintings from an eagle to an angel.

The eagle was in front and was very eye-catching with its golden feathers outlined its wings. Seeing it, the eagle was really suitable to be called the 'King of Birds'. Its beak was sharp just like its claws.

Beside it was a painting of an angel, but it was a fallen angel because of its black colour. It has beautiful black hair flowing with a lonely smile on its lips. It's black wings till now have some signs of white outlined on it. It was giving an aura of darkness.

Coming at the corner of the room, there was a photo column. In the middle of the column there was a painting of a little girl and a boy with his back looking of the same age as her playing in the garden. Beside them were two women sitting with a kind and sweet smile on their face.

The lady with a kind smile knitting embroidery was her grandmother. And the one sitting beside her talking with my grandmother was my mother. And the girl who was playing in the picture was me. She was running behind the butterflies. She looked about six-seven years old. And the boy....

She wrinkled her eyebrows as she tried her best again to remember him. She was trying from last few years from her previous life to her rebirth. She never found out until today....at the end "Who was the Boy?"

She remembered her grandma was really a kind lady. She had the talent of embroidery. Maybe the talent of fashion designing she has was an inheritance from her. She was really good at it. Beside the photo column on a table there was a box placed there. She took the box and opened it with her fingerprint. Inside it there was a key placed properly in there.

Ryna took the key in her hand. Keeping the box safely back in its place. She then went from there into the second room. The second one was a bedroom. There was a family picture placed at the top of the bed. The room was equally decorated beautifully as the previous one.

Ryna came near the cupboard. She opened the cupboard with the key. In the cupboard there were in sight was many dresses. Looking at them, all the dresses were branded and in trend. There was a speciality about the dresses they were designed in such a way it does not seem like they will ever be outdated.

Looking at the dress, Ryna touched all the dresses. The fibre was as smooth and good as she remembered. This all dresses were a gift to her from her grandmother, as she said before her grandmother had really the talent for fashion designing.

She then looked towards the small locker in it and opened it with the password. When the locker was opened, she took out a little wooden box from it. The wooden box had carvings made of golden and silver on it. It was looking both from ancient times and beautiful at the same time.

She opened it to find a beautiful ring laying inside. It was shining in bright white colour just like its colour. It was made from diamond. But what differentiate it from other diamond rings was its beautiful design made around the diamond holding the diamond like a queen's crown.

"FLASHBACK,"

There was a huge party ball going into a mansion. The lights of it were outshining the last few meters of the area. It was a huge ball to see. The whole mansion was covered with decoration and in golden light, looking like a palace. The voice of a sweet melody was flowing out from the mansion outshining its gracious presence.

This mansion was Li's house. There was a huge party going on in it, celebrating the only young miss fifth birthday.

In the huge hall there was a little girl was cutting cake. She was wearing a pink dress with a tiara on her head, fully representing a cute little princess. Beside her was a young couple and standing helping her to cut the cake.

Finally, when the cake cutting ceremony was over, everyone started giving her presents. The little girl was not excited as the children age of her should be when receiving gifts.

She was searching for her grandma.

"Mom, Dad, where is grandma?" The little girl, Ryna said with her cute little voice.

"Baby, your grandma was feeling a little ill so she has gone in her room." Her mother replied with concern in her eyes.

"Mom, what happened to grandma? Why she has been ill for some days now? She doesn't even play with me anymore," Little Ryna said with her crying voice.

"Oh, why is our little miss crying?" Suddenly the head Buttler came and said, coaxing Ryna.

He has taken care of her since she was born.

He just passed away last year.

"Henry.. Henry see grandma is not playing with Ryna anymore," Ryna said with her little crying voice.

"Oh! Sweet miss, I had come to take you to your grandma. see she is waiting for you in her room. Does young miss want to go?" The head Buttler said with his coaxing voice.

"Really? Grandma called me? Henry, take me there please.." Ryna said excited to meet her grandma.

Some time later...

Ryna ran towards her grandma, that was sitting in the chair knitting something in her hands. It was her habit she never leave herself free after grandpa's death. Just after his death, she started feeling lonely and getting ill often. Maybe because not to remember him, she caught this habit...

"Grandma," Little Ryna said cheerfully to her grandma almost reaching her laps.

"Oh my Angel, finally you are here. Grandma was waiting for you." Her grandma said, taking her in her laps.

Ryna giggled, coming in her grandma's lap.

"Happy Birthday Angel" Finally her Grandma said, picking up a wooden box from the nearby table and giving her.

Ryna happily received the gift and kissed her grandma, giggling all just like a child.

Her Grandma smiled and said, "Take care of it"

Maybe it was the last smile she has seen on her grandma...
