An odd discovery.
Ever since Theo discovered the fate of the old Sahalla, every time he saw any middle-aged one, he just couldn't stop thinking about it.
He just couldn't.
'Why's this even a thing?' At first, he thought it was a joke, no, he wanted it to be a joke. But it was anything but a joke…
He also had to keep a straight face while carrying his stick around all day, even when going to the bathroom or the bedroom. And he had to hold it with a hand too.
Moreover, Johrain followed him all day long. Even when Emily was around.
And actually, why was Emily not around? Theo hadn't seen her for quite some time now. Almost making him worry- 'Just what is she plotting this time?' Needless to say, he was scared of his sister's plans almost as much as he was worried about his mother's.
"When would this fruit be ready?"
Theo walked along the sides of the terrace.
There wasn't much to do but wait.
