All Chapters of Vampire of the New World: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

“She’s beautiful!” exclaimed Nadi as she held her doll in front of her. The yellow and orange flowers encircled her doll’s head and she was amazed at how it looked.Flora smiled as she remembered her old past time when she was a girl herself. She continued to make a bracelet and another crown for Nadi who was amazed at how her mother was able to transform the stems and flowers into something that she could wear. She giggled as her mother placed the crown over her head and attached the bracelet of flowers around her wrist.“Now you look like a princess!” exclaimed Flora.Nadi clapped her hands with glee before picking up her doll with an identical crown of flowers over its head.“How does Kay like her crown, Princess?” asked Flora.Nadi placed the doll’s mouth to her ear before replying, &l

Flora had not expected Rosa to ask her a question about drinking wine. In the past few days that she had worked with Rosa in the kitchen, the old cook would only talk about their tasks and the dishes that they were going to prepare. Flora also found it quite unusual for Rosa to suddenly open up about giving up alcohol altogether and to say something about her sister was even more uncharacteristic of her.Rosa stayed quiet after revealing to Flora that she had not drunk alcohol since her sister died, leaving Flora to think about what the cook said. Flora started to wonder why Rosa began by asking her if she drank wine. She could not recall Pablo talking about alcohol as being forbidden at work, but Flora assumed that that was a rule. Flora did not drink alcohol, but she does not think of it as entirely evil. She knew that alcoholi

Flora loaded the first batch of dirty laundry onto the washing machine. The laundry area was filled with the alternating hum of the machine and the slopping water. She went to the next laundry basket and resumed segregating the clothes systematically. She remembered Maya’s instructions not to get the clothes mixed up and decided to just load the clothes per basket. It was tedious and would occupy more of her time, but she could not let the same mistake happen again. She wondered who would be in charge of the housekeeping since Maya had gone and guessed that Pablo would probably get someone from Cardena to replace her.Flora looked at her daughter who seemed to be content playing at the corner by herself. She had propped her doll on a chair and had crowned her with some of the plants that she had picked from the vegetable patch. She remembered how Nadi used sanaria previously, but now she had to content herself with stems and leaves from discarded vegetables. Then, she r

Flora walked towards Nadi’s bed and stared at the doll that was propped against her daughter’s pillow. Flora had not observed it before, but the doll had a letter ‘K’ patched on its chest, which was why Nadi insisted in calling it Kay. The doll Flora was holding had a different pattern on its chest.Flora felt her heart beat faster as she picked Kay from Nadi’s pillow and replaced it with Nadi’s own doll. Flora looked at the doll she was holding and wondered what to do with it. Is it possible that the doll was owned by Emil’s daughter? Flora thought. Still holding the doll, Flora decided to place it in a paper bag. She resolved to give it back to Emil the following morning. Then, with her head still filled with thoughts about Kay and Emil’s daughter, Flora finally got to bed and slept.The next morning, Flora woke up feeling well-rested and eager to start the day. She sat up in bed and looked at Nadi who was

Flora closed the door gently, seeing Rosa’s back as the old cook hunched over the kitchen table. Rosa rested her elbows on the kitchen and buried her face in her hands. Flora could not help but feel sorry for the old cook who had probably not experienced such a shouting match with any of her maids in which she had been the one to lose. To have been shouted at and outranked by someone who only just a few days ago had been at the receiving end of Rosa’s tirades would have made the old woman humiliated and defeated. Flora herself did not know how she should feel about the whole incident. She did feel sorry for the old cook, but she also felt that Eva might have been too harsh and disrespectful towards Rosa. Eva had been vindictive and relished the experience of getting back at the cook who had been quite strict and equally harsh towards her. Then, Flora remembered how much work needed to be done to prepare the breakfast for the household and she was concerned a
