Song
I was silent for a few moments. I looked at my trembling hands. I couldn't believe what Mrs Lilly had just told me. Was this a nightmare? When would they leave me alone?
Could there be a person so vile as to hurt a woman and her daughter?
-Are you all right, sweetheart? Would you like some water? - Said Mrs Lilly as she turned to look at the door to speak to Alex.
-I'm fine. I'm just surprised.- I said, trying to regain the courage I had lost a few years ago.
-Be careful, even though I only told you one thing your mother told me. You still have to be aware of what is going on around you. If you want to know more, you will have to investigate, with the little I have told you. I would love to help you more, but your mother was very secretive about this. - Through her glasses, I could see the sincerity of her words. After all, Mrs Lilly always wanted to protect me from whatever was lurking around me.
