Early in the morning Night woke up and realized that she had slept in Fina's house and she was still sleeping quietly after troubling her a lot last night, Fina was crying and singing all night until she finally got to sleep.
Night didn't have the luxury to continue sleeping as she still had to visit her grandmother from the country side, knowing that she got up and went to freshen up.
Since it was still early she decided to prepare something for them especially Fina who would definitely wake up with headache and exhaustion
She was not planning to babysit her so instead she called Grape who was not living so far and asked her to take care of Fina.
Night got ready to leave but Fina was still sleeping so she knew she might extend her rest until noon.
Leaving a message for her Night left the house around 9 am and started her journey to the West side of the city J where her grandmother was living,
It had been few months now since she had last visited her.
Thinking about the time she had spent with her, Night was reminded about something.

Flashback!
Six months ago.
Opening her eyes she was greeted by white ceiling, her butterfly like eyelashes blinked several times to adjust to the light and realized that it was already past morning.
She had overslept! groaning tiredly her head was pounding a lot and she was feeling dizzy, looking around she realized it was not her house, where was she?...
but before even asking herself a soft caring voice was heard coming from the door side.
" Dear you are awake....how are you feeling?.. I have prepared health soup for you" It was the voice of an old woman she respect a lot.
" Grandmother why are you here?" Night asked with a shy smile as she was embarrassed with the state she was in and she got to see her.
" Look at you. ... how can a lady drink like that... you are not even aware where you slept last night" Grandma Lili said while serving the soup.
" I...."Night then didn't know what to say, she did it again! she got lost in her agony and wasted herself.
Grandma had talked to her about drinking, it was dangerous especially after having many enemies around her, what if they take advantage of her situation and end up hurting her while she was helpless.
" Starry Night remember what I told you last time and what did you do?" The once friendly grandma now sound strick as she serve her soup.
That stupid assistant of hers! why did she have to bring her to her grandmother? the lady can be willful sometimes and there is nothing she could do about it when she is like that, her strict side was scary.
" I...It won't happen again" Night had said softly hiding her face with her messed up hairs not to meet the old woman's intimidating gaze.
" won't happen again!, Night do you know?.. last night the security cameras caught two cars following you sneakily, good thing Grape was wise enough to bring you to my house what if your enemies got hold of you in that state what would have happened?" the old woman asked with a mixture of worry and warning.
" Night I respected your decision not to inherit any of my wealth even when I can't have any of my unfilial children take it, fine but I expected you to at least take care of yourself well when you left the mansion that was what you promised! then what are you doing risking your life like this?" she asked and the confident lady didn't have an answer and only lowered her head.
" It looks like you can't take care of yourself let this old woman find someone to take care of you" she said firmly to the young lady's surprise, she immediately rise her face and looked at her Grandmother with puzzled expression on her face.
" Someone to ..take care... what do you mean yaya?" sudden panic found her as she thought of the possibility of... no!!! her mind screamed in horror as she didn't dare think it was what she meant by that someone.
" Yes...you need to get married Night you are already twenty seven how long are you going to stay like this?" Grandma asked.
" But..." Night didn't see any problem with her single life she was okay with how her life was.
" No buts you have already shown me how bad you are at taking care of yourself and I can't watch you waste your life like that ...so trust this old woman I will definitely find a good man for you" She said excitedly to her surprise as if she was just looking for a reason to put her plan into action,
but before she could refute the old woman wave her hand and concluded leaving her with no option.
Sigh!.

End of flashback!
Now that she was going back to the old woman what was she going to say to her?, the marriage she had worked hard to arrange for her, she had broken it and she could no longer keep it.
The life she had dreamed for her to live she couldn't realize it and all hopes she had for her were futile.
Will she understand?.
