"Half-Baked Ambition!"
Half.. bake?..
I look at her, suprised visible in my face
"Weak! You experience luxury and became weak! Half baked ambition! Half baked strength!" She blurted out
"You're not the sister I know! You're not!"
She pants,looking at me with disappointed before turning around, "My magic says you're Haru Vanerus, But I know. That's no longer you."
"I'll give you a clue, You've been trying to puzzle the pieces aren't you? Our Father. Remember him." She glares, putting the cloak again before stepping into the darkness
I dropped into my knees, not stopping the tears to flow.. Holly.. i'm scared.. is she.. leaving me?.. no..
My back was on the fountain, my arms wrapping around my knees, What should I do.. I bit my lip, Did I really become weak?
A coat came to my back, I look up, "..Leilaly" I murmured,she had came afterall
"Let's go home, M'lady" Leilaly smiled warmly, wrapping her arms around me, I couldn't help but bury my head to her shoulders..
Leilaly had made the excuse and exchange goodbyes to the nobles and the Emperor on my behalf as I stayed in the carriage, I don't wanna face them just yet
I crossed my arms, leaning on the carriage window. Father. My father.
I only got a glimpse of him back when I was six, when he visited, he had this stern look and unwavering determination in his eyes
I never know his name, no one knew either, and it was unknown whether Holly is my full blood sister or half.. But I was certain that my mother is meeting a person in the Border, everyone says so..
I paused.. border of.. Marfester.. The Emperor.. Crown prince.. The Duke..
I gasps, could it be.. Reillana's Father.. the Duke... Is who my mother was meeting?!
"Then.. I'm his daughter?"
It's possible.. I mean.. it really is, I don't see a reason why it may not..
My hand reaching out to my lips, Duke? Marfester?... I was aware of the situation between the four of them.. but.. this?.. how come...
"M'lady?" Leilaly says opening the carriage door, "Ah.. right. Let's leave right away" I said, sighing.
I didn't even notice myself, I dozed off the carriage.
I woke up in the middle of the trip as I heard Leilaly mumbling
"Stop the carriage." She said, knocking on the wall twice, "Lei. Are you sure about this?" The coachman say
As the carriage stop, she look over me again, she looks so annoyed.., it's bothering me.
She stand up, opening the carriage door and stepping out. "Tell her I left before we reach the Estate"
"Lei-"
"Please!. I can't with this girl anymore, she made me suffer under her care and now acting all kind and all- it's too much." She grit her teeth before turning around
I pretend to be asleep, Leilaly leaving? Why? What is she talking about that I made her suffer?
