Her eyes were green and some of her hair was gray in the color but most likely blonde when she was a teen.
Alicia got close, and Karstum started talking.
"Alicia, this is "Cindirel" she works with a good and capable home service company in the Glavorias Town, She and her other friend named "Aliana" will be here to clean the around and do work chores, I wanted you to meet them, But Aliana is not here for the moment."
Alicia listened her father nodded as she looked at Cindirel.
Cindirel smiled, and Alicia started talking.
"Hi, Lady Alicia, as your father said, I will help with the matters of cooking and cleaning. Nice to meet you."
Alicia smiled too and answered.
"Thank you, Cindirel, but please you do not have to use "Lady," just Alicia is fine
When Karstum heard the words of he laughed a little and looked at Cindirel, Cindirel too smiled and thought.
"She is not like other rich girls. This is a good thing to know. Aliana will feel good in this place."
Five to ten minutes later, another woman entered the house.
Her hair was black and her age was pretty young for a housekeeper, most likely between the ages of 25 to 30.
She was tall and had fair skin, not too beautiful, but still attractive.
Her eyes were black, and she had a similar character like "Alicia".
She started walking towards to group and first looked at Karstum and then Alicia; she nodded in the matter of welcoming them and started speaking.
"Hi, Mister Karstum and Lady Cindirel, I am called Aliana. I will help "Cindirel" in the matter of house chores. Nice to meet both of you."
Karstum nodded and started talking.
"You are young, It is good, I am sure you will have a good relationship with Alicia, But I have to say, I am tired and would like to sleep, Please start with basic cleaning and morning breakfast, Allison I suppose you are going to sleep too?"
As Karstum finished his words, he looks at Alicia and asks a question.
Alicia, who was silent until now, nods and starts talking after looking at Aliana.
"Nice to meet you too, Aliana, but I would like you to address me directly as "Alicia" I do not prefer "Lady" and yes, I am going to sleep too. Thank you for everything."
Alicia started walking towards her room. As she was on the stairs, she heard some words from her father.
"Do not in any circumstances give this key to Alicia, This is the key of the basement of this manor."
Alicia furrowed her brows but did not think about it for the moment as she feels tired from all the things that happened, her mother's funeral and moving to another place at the same time taken a toll on her.
She enters her room and took her clothes off and lied down on her new bed, sleeping quickly.
-
Karstum gave the key to the basement of the manor, which official name of the manor is "Niras Manor", he went to the second floor and started walking towards his room, He did not want to show it but he still not in a good and messed up because of loss of his wife.
He and his wife had a healthy marriage for over 18 years.
It could say that they belonged to each other and had dreams about how they will live in the future.
Karstum is only 40 right now.
When he married Feelina, he was only a young man at 22. It would be no wrong to say they grew up together.
As Karstum took his clothes off and laid down, He whispered within his mind, likely giving a promise to his beloved deceased wife.
"I will try everything to give a good life to Alicia and not giving her a chance to enter the world of yours."
As Karstum whispered to himself, he closed his eyes and entered a deep sleep.
-
Five hours later, sunlight entered from the window behind Alicia as she opened her eyes.
The First thing that came to her mind was the reality of her mother and she is dead,
When people lose someone they close to they can not understand how serious is death is and how to deal with the pain of losing.
Alicia gathered herself up and got up from her bed and started wearing a basic black t-shirt and black sweatpants.
"I have to stay strong for my father."
She thought and left the room, going straight towards the bathroom. She washed her face with warm water and looked at herself from the mirror.
"There is a new life in front of you, Alicia, enjoy it"
She said to herself as she knew that giving herself more problems and thinking about her mother will only make her sadder about the situation and give herself more problematic thoughts about her future.
