I truly did. Even before she came, I had reflected on my mistakes and desired to be strong hearted. I didn't want to be seen as someone foolish and easy enough to trash out. I wanted to be quite smart.
Evelyn let out a smile and stood with a small bow. "That's all I'd want to say. I should be leaving now, I can't stay for long. Next time we meet I hope you would be healthy and happy, Almira."
Happy? Would that even be possible? Here was indeed a wolf den for me, happiness hardly comes by when surrounded with people who has nothing but wicked wants for me.
But I must be healthy. I shouldn't allow anyone to make me unwell.
Evelyn left, causing me to return back to boredom. I drank the soup she brought and breathed out heavily.
Although a little bitter, I'd calm my nerves.
It caused me to feel drowsy and not able to resist it, I took a long nap, one that surprisingly lasted till the next morning.
