Two weeks later, Carolline Ruiz embarked on her journey to the Countryside. The day before her departure, Emily Hill held Carolline and cried uncontrollably. From the moment Carolline was born, the mother and daughter had never been apart for such a long period - a whole half year.
Besides, if something unexpected happens, it would be longer than half a year.
Henry Ruiz just gave Carolline some precautions and didn't say much. Going to the countryside was a good experience for young people, and also a valuable life lesson. Naturally, he didn't oppose it.
The place Carolline was assigned to was not as good as a big city, but it was not the best or worst of the dozen villages. It was acceptable.
After Emily finished crying, she brought out the huge travel bag she had prepared for some days. Carolline was dumbfounded by its size, worried that it would make her stand out.
