Lara couldn't believe what she was seeing, it was like staring in the mirror of her own clear reflection, Bethany stood up as soon as she saw Lara approaching her," Lara, I'm glad you're finally here." Bethany gave her hug," Bethany, who..who is she? and why does she look exactly like me?" Lara asked in utter shock," Lara, this..is Luna, our sister.. your twin sister." Bethany said, Alex was also confused and curious about this woman who looked exactly like his little wife, but his facial expression was as calm as the river in the cold night, Luna smirked standing up and approached Lara standing in front her," I thought people were exaggerating of the fact that I was you, but now I understand why.. you and I look exactly the same, sister." Luna said, Lara took a step back creating some space between them," how is it possible? my parents never told me anything about having a twin sister, they never mentioned it once." Lara said firmly, Luna laughed out softly tilting her head," as much I hate reliving my past, I have no choice.. once upon a time, a long..long time ago, Mrs Bella gave birth to two little cute angels, which is you and I, your mother wasn't ready to raise two kid while they were not financially stable, so she had to give up one of us, and I was the unlucky one, they left me in the hospital and went away, not thinking how I will survive or where I will end up at, I stayed in the hospital for three good day and nights, till one day..a couple that came from South Korea came looking for a baby to adopt, that was when I left that place, they raised me, took care of me and loved me like their own daughter, but the more I grew up, the more I could see how different I was from them, kids at school would bully me, tell me how ugly I was, and that I was actually adopted, I went to my parents and asked them if what the kids at school said were actually the truth, but they denied it..at the age of 16, I began my research, and I found out where I was born, I called the hospital but they refused to disclose their personal information, so I hucked their system, I found out the person who gave birth to me, I took the information I need and continued doing some research, when I turned 18 I ran away from home in Korea, and traveled to New York City, I took a taxi and it dropped me to the address I gave the driver, I still remember how my heart was racing inside my chest, just as I was about to ring on that doorbell, I saw how happy they were, celebrating your birthday, while you blew those candles, how they got you that big beautiful piano as a gift because you loved music, just like I did, I was so broken, shuttered, I asked myself how did I get so unlucky since birth, to be honest with you Lara, I hated you, I wanted to destroy you, to get whatever belonged to you, your family, your friends, your life, I blamed you for everything that happened to me, and I hated the fact that I had to share a face with you, but all that died down, I thought I shouldn't hold a grudge on you and make peace with my sister, and my little sister and brother, that's why I'm here." Luna smiled sweetly, all the things she just said made Lara feel bad, pity and scared, and angry at her parents, the fact that they hid all this, so much to her and felt no need to tell her anything, she didn't know what to say to Luna, she just couldn't believe she was standing in front of her twin sister, her own live reflection, she had different emotions building up inside of her, she didn't know whether to embrace her or not, to trust her or not, all this was just too much for her to huddle, Kay narrowed his eyes at Luna crossing his arms over his chest," you mentioned Queen Bianca's name earlier, what's up with that?" he asked, Luna sneered falling on the couch lazily," Queen Bianca huh, where do I start from? you see, after I left Lara's house, all I could do was run in tears, I didn't want to look back, I didn't even know where I was going but I just kept on running, not till my legs gave in, that I didn't see a car coming my way, it ran me over and I fell unconscious, when I opened my eyes I was in a dark room, she sweetly smiled at me helping me seat on my back, she gave me something to eat and took care of me, she was the only one who cared, she asked me if I could keep a secret, and if I would freak out, but I kept my ground and nodded, she asked me if I believe in fairytale, magic and fairy creatures, I said no, but I would like to see one one day, she chuckled softly, stretching her hand, and a wonder of beautiful different lights like dust appeared on the palm of her hand, at first I could not believe my eyes, she showed me more and that helped me forget the pain I was feeling at the moment, she promised me something very special, but ended up breaking that promise when she realized I was barren, that I could never be a mother." Luna teared up staring at Alex who was quietly standing beside Lara without any sign of emotion in his cold Blue eyes, so she continued," I begged her to keep her promise but she stood her ground, instead, she gave me a little glass bottle of green liquid, she told me she can't keep her promise but she will surely do something special for me, to stay young forever, to possess great power, power of light, I told her I don't need power, I don't need to stay young forever, I only craved for one thing, and that was the promise she failed to keep, but I still accepted the deal, I took the liquid and went back to Japan, my home.. you see Lara, Blood is thicker than water, we are family, and I am here to get back my family, you, Bethany, Evan and I, I want the family that our parents took away from me, I want my sister back." Luna said standing up, and embraced Lara in a tight hug, Lara hugged her back tearing up," and you shall have it sister, I am here for you, all of us." Lara said opening her hand for one more hug, Bethany throw herself in both her sister's arms, Alex stared at Luna closely, he did not trust her a bit, she must have a motive for coming back in Lara's life after so many years.
