Burning. Her hands were burning. The hot burn crawled under her skin which made her hold back a sob.
Papa sent her to her room and told her not to come out for the rest of the afternoon. The scene was shown in front of all of Valtis's nobles.
He was so embarrassed that he lashed out on her, not yelling at Mila, who looked shell-shocked, or her new stepmother, who was hiding her grin with a fan.
She never understood this situation.
She never understood why Mila threw hot tea all over her.
She never understood why her stepmother lied to her father
She never understood why her father was so mad at her.
All she knew was that she was burning all over. She had burn marks on her arms and hands.
No one came to see her. Maybe Roger but her memory is all foggy.
She was crying a lot. She remembered that much.
