Chapter 47

Sarah ’s POV:

The sky in front of me was clear. Winter was at its peak. And contrasting with lush green me down the whole view was refreshing. Away from the noise and restlessness of the city. It was peaceful. But was it giving my heart the calmness I was craving for? I didn’t know. I snuck out just to free myself from my silly thoughts. But here I was doing exactly what I had planned to avoid.

Overthinking.

“Is the tea not good, my dear?” I almost flinched, at her voice. Distracting my sight from the window, I forced a smile on my lips.

“It’s good.”

She sighed, and her eyes went in the direction where I was previously staring at.

“Winters always make us a bit silent. Maybe, they encourage us to ponder about nature, life and things within it.”

I took a sip of the herbal tea, and the scent of cinnamon felt good.
