The Woman From Hell

I fell asleep while thinking of my flight at night but found it hard to sleep and ended up tossing and turning. I only managed to catch a few winks before the sky turned dark.

When I woke up, my alarm rang.

I brought my luggage that I had packed the night before down. Petra and Grayson were already waiting for me.

"Wanda, why don't you go up and look at the children one more time?" Petra pulled up my hand and patted it. She looked sorry.

Although Grayson said nothing while standing at the side, I could tell he was worried about me from his face.

I turned back around and looked toward the children's room but shook my head in the end. "It's okay. I'd better not. I'm afraid I'll be even more unwilling to leave if I do that. I'm sorry to trouble you guys for the rest after this." "Silly child, we'd take care of them even if you said nothing. Come back as soon as you can."

"I know. The taxi I called for is here. You don't need to send me."

Dragging my luggage, I went out and did not look back. I did not even dare look at their expressions at this moment.

The driver immediately started driving the moment I got into the car.

From the corner of my eye, I could see Petra and Grayson waving to me at the back.

I could no longer hold myself together then, and my tears started pouring.

Along the way, bits and pieces from the past filled my mind, but I was more worried about Theo's situation.

We soon arrived at the airport.

Neil was at the entrance waiting for me. He seemed to have gotten here very early. "You're early." I got out of the car and saw him help me with my luggage as I greeted him casually.

There was a faint smile on his face. "Of course. I can only make my report once I personally send you off."

Before entering the airport, I turned back to look at the sky.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

I would not be able to see Whaldorf City's sky for a month.

"It's almost time. Let's not delay and head in," Neil urged me heartlessly.

I did not reply and just followed him into the airport.

I did not have to wait long in the waiting room when it was time. Neil gave me the ticket. "Check the ticket."

"You can rest assured and make your report now." My tone was slightly mocking as I accepted the ticket in his hand and went to line up to check-in.

After that, I glanced at Neil who was outside. He was taking a photo probably to send as proof.

I stopped looking at him and immediately proceeded my way forward.

Finally, I arrived.

I stretched when the plane touched down, my waist and back feeling sore.

I had already found accomodation in advance and immediately headed over once I was out of the airport.

According to Nibel's request, I could

not receive any news about Theo

when I got here. I did gardening every day and would occasionally.go out for walks. Life was still

considered rather comfortable.

I did not need to work or worry about anything else. I felt blissful as long as I enjoyed every day happily.

When I dreamt at midnight, I would

always dream of my children, my friends, and. Theo. I could not help but want to cry every time then. I would fall asleep with tears pouring down my face and then wake up during the day to repeat the same thing.

Just like that, days passed.

"Did you guys hear? Arthur will be coming here to shoot a movie."

"Really? Where? I want to go look. Who knows, I might be able to get his autograph?"

When I was out shopping, I heard a few individuals chattering to themselves at the side. Young people sure do love chasing stars.

I smiled and continued picking out some vegetables for dinner.

Every day was rather boring,

however. Going to watch the filming location did not sound like a bad idea either. I walked up to them and asked, "Excuse me, I heard you guys saying that they're filming a movie. May I know where it is?"

"At the beach near the market. You like Arthur too, yes? I love him to bits. We can go together."
