"You're finally here, sweetie."
I was startled when I just walked into the room and heard a voice from behind. Terrence walked over with a tray of two cups of hot chocolate.
He made me sit across from him and I obeyed without the slightest suspicion. Terrence smiled and asked a few small questions as usual after which he told me to drink the chocolate while it was still drinkable.
I nodded and took the cup and took a sip. There was a big awkwardness between the two of us. There was no conversation only the ticking of the clock could be heard, but moments later Terrence asked something about Giselle.
I was stunned. "Are you accusing me?"
"I'm not accusing you, but you look so weird with your frien
"Why are you covering my eyes with a handkerchief," I moaned with fumbling hands even though one of my hands was also being held by Terrence. I can feel the breeze blowing my bangs and hair, Terrence occasionally chuckles and tells me to walk slowly because of the many thorns below. Stupid! If you don't want to get hurt why are you covering my eyes with this handkerchief? I continued walking in short strides, holding Terrence's hand tightly and wondering where Terrence would take me this afternoon. Almost three minutes we walked, Terrence immediately untied the handkerchief. I blinked a few times and found a table beautifully set amidst a bed of roses. No wonder the aroma is so fragrant.
With a little struggle, Terrence opened the iron barrier covering the safe box behind the painting in my room. We have almost sixteen minutes trying to open the barrier iron and we can’t open it yet. Terrence’s finger turned white because he forcing to bend the barrier iron and it worried me that he would get hurt by the barrier iron. Because as long as I remember, all barrier iron in my house was made of silver.“I’ll reach Judith to bring a welder,” Terrence said in desperate voice.Yet not long after that, I remember that there a crowbar in the basement. Mom safe it just in case. I asked Terrence for went to basement and took a crowbar. Then we came back to my room for opened the barrier iron of the safe box.With the same little struggling pulled the barrier iron, we can do it and we can opened the safe box with several password. Mom tell me several minute a go that the password of the safe box is date of my birthday
“Does Mrs. Gregory want a peanut biscuit or ginger biscuit?” asked Marry.I shook my head and said thank you for once again. Then I said that I wanted to visit mom and I told her to make porridge for mom.Marry nodded then left me. I let out a deep sigh, then I walked into the other hallway to visit mom who was still chatting with the mom of Terrence.I opened the door slowly. I saw mom alone, I asked where Terrence’ mom and mom said that she had gone after putting a ginger biscuit jar on a nightstand. Mom said that Terrence’s mom would go to make some healty meal for her even thought she didn’t ask for anything at that time.I nodded slowly.“Mom, can I ask about something” I asked then..Mom paused for a moment then she took my hand. “What’s that, sweety?”“Erm… I want to ask about a necklace in the maroon box, mom.”“You
After dinner, Terrence took me to a library. I don’t know why Terrence suddenly took me to the library.I asked again a little later. Terrence had lowered a book, and the bookshelf opened. I was stunned for a moment.“There are many books of knowledge of ancient things here,” said Terrence. “Perhaps you will gain a lot of knowledge about the book here.”“But mom said earlier that I am indeed a descendant of the Crescent Scarlet Kingdom.” I sighed.Terrence nodded. “And maybe you won’t understand what I mean, will you?”“I really don’t understand,” I whispered.Terrence smiled and then pulled my hand into the room. Apparently, in the room there are many historical relics. And there was a mannequin box from a large and wide building. I recognized the building as the Crescent Scarlet
“Looks like you just discussed something important with your mom, honey.” Terrence served me a cup of coffee.He sat next to me without saying a word. I’m waiting for a reply from Tamara. I asked about it and it was discovered that she had known about it for a long time. I'm the only one who doesn't know.Terrence glanced at me. “What’s wrong with you? Why are you suddenly being this quiet?”“I’m still thinking about what mom said, and apparently Tamara already knows this,” I said.Terrence sighed. “So now what are you going to do?”“I don’t know. Mom asked me to immediately meet them. I have little courage to go there.” I took a deep breath and put my phone limply on the table. I hug my feet now.“You should dare to go there. Your blood is related to them, and if they don’t believe, you can do a DNA test,” Terrence said.“That’s not
When I heard a loud roar of a car stop in front of Terrence’s house, I was stunned. After showering, I put a towel on my head. I looked out the window, pensive, as I saw the many cars parked in Terrence’s driveway.Looks like Terrence has another meeting today.I let out a small sigh and grabbed my water bottle.Today I’m really nervous and need a lot of fluids.Mom had warned me to take vitamins or eat the fruit she had brought. But I haven’t touched it at all.I was nervous about the news from the letter I sent through Judith the other day. I’ve told myself that everything will be fine. My grandfather loved mom very much and there was no way he could have the heart to refuse a letter from me.When the door opened, I was more surprised. Mom came in with a big smile on her face. He was happy. It seemed. I don’t know what made her so happy this af
“I don’t understand why since Crysie ran away with Damien you’ve become like this.” Grandfather sighed for a moment then glanced at Terrence’s father who looked so shy in front of him. “Master forgive us for coming with nothing and making a bit of a fuss.”“N-no Mr Thomas, we are not bothered at all. We value you as our parents because you are the king of Crescent Scarlet.”“If you don’t mind the day after tomorrow I invite you to attend Crescent Scarlet. This is a special dinner to welcome the return of Crysie da Katherina.”I rolled my eyes nervously. “But Grandpa, why—”“Ssh… invite the Tamara family too to go to Crescent Scarlet. I miss her so much and I also want to meet my great-grandchildren,” he whispered.I glanced at mom who was standing behind me with a gl
Today is where we will go to the Scarlet Crescent. Attended a dinner event hosted by Grandpa. I took Terrence's hand awkwardly as I entered the area of the large and imposing building. Terrence rubbed my hand and said that everything would be fine.I understand that, but I'm also scared.We were led into a room that was so magnificent with some beautiful and luxurious gold ornaments. We are welcome to sit down. A moment later Grandpa greeted us all with a warm hug.He kissed both of my cheeks."You really do look like your mother, Katherina." Grandpa complimented me then he hugged Tamara, then Angel who must be still confused about where he is now.I watched one by one the people in the luxurio
