Beautiful dream

"I would like to return to my manor now," Aylin stated with conviction and the lady behind her could not refute her for a moment. 

Elena stared at Aylin's back, stunned by the confidence she had in her. A day ago, she was devastated and broken. Now, she seemed to be prepared for a battle. Something in her had changed. But Elena could not make out what. Aylin seemed to be herself but not at the same time.

"You are still sick, Aylin. Please stay until you recuperate, at least." Elena tried to stop her by using her illness. This way, she could delay Aylin's departure for a few days and then think of a plan. 

Aylin's house held a lot of dreadful memories. Even Elena, who in no way was related to the people who had died, was fearful to stay at the manor. So, she was reluctant to send the young lady to the unfortunate and terrifying house.
