CHAPTER 28
"No, my dear, Aeverie. Not physical hurt. I am hurt here in my heart."
"Oh, it is a matter of the heart, umm."
"No," Era answered frankly.
"No?" Era nodded. "Why?" Aeverie questioned out of curiosity.
"Because I feel burdened and it hurts."
"I am so sorry, my queen but I do not understand. Please can you help break this topic to the best of my understanding?
"As you wish. First, I would like to ask, do you know why or... never mind." She turned around again, waiting to think this true so she does not seem like she was accusing.
"Your majesty, what is it? You can ask us anything and we would be truthful about it. Trust me on that."
BINGO!
Saying that Era smiled briefly and moved forward to hold Aeverie's hand in hers. "That's good then. I can feel relieved now."
The second Aeverie said that she had wondered what in heaven's name had made her say such words. It was now she realized that Era just succeeded in making her fall into her trap.
