After a few seconds of lamenting and slightly feeling blue [1] for her situation she physically shook her head trying to disperse the depressing thoughts.
She locked their door and walked inside. Their house was tiny so upon entering the very short hallway you will immediately see their living room.
But before she could even see anything she was suddenly hugged who she believes to be her sister Sophia as she was not able to see her face clearly she knew it was her. However regardless of the warmth from the hug, Sophia's body was trembling very hard.
Startled, she instinctively hugged her sister in return making the bag she just took off fall unceremoniously on the floor.
Her sister was not one to show her love in words or action but sometimes her eyes that was as beautiful as diamonds would warm up looking at them. Just like how their mother lovingly looks at them. Reen was immediately alerted by this unusual behavior [2].
"W-what happened?" pulling her out the embrace looking at her sister's beautiful face.
Her sister was a very beautiful woman accompanied by her cool and stern persona making her even more pleasing to the eyes.
Her jet black hair that she inherited from their father and chocolate brown eyes inherited from their mother made her the beauty she could see now. The abandonment of their father was a huge impact on her sister. She changed from her playful and wild self into this cool and stern persona.
But now her beautiful short hair was disheveled and face covered in tears and a splash of something red. Whip slashes, bruises black and blue [3] could be seen on her exposed pale arms, legs and face.
Reen was totally shock, unable to control herself tears started pouring from her eyes. She was afraid yet angry seeing these. She didn't know whom to vent these mix emotions too so she could only cry in frustration.
"Wha-"
"Close your eyes and cover your ears don't make a single sound."
Before she could say anything more her sister resolutely said in her stern voice deprived of any emotion. As though the one heavily battered woman in front her was someone else but Reen could feel her pain with her short intakes of breath and occasional twitching.
More tears poured out her face seeing her sister like this. Despite the injuries she still pretended to be fine which broke her heart even more. Despite her cool and stern personality, Reen, her brother and mother knew deep inside how warm hearted she was.
Before she could say anything more, rapid steps could be heard from behind Sophia.
Before she could say anything else her sister hurriedly shielded her behind her. Before them was a 3 group of big burly men in black suits some of them had scratches, bite marks and even one of them had a black bruise near his eye [4]
A young woman who had average looks yet had a seducing auro excuding from her body slowly descended from the stairs, besides her was an old man who had similar qualities with the sisters.
