Satiana’s Decision (2)
"Sati, I want to ask you. Would you like to come with me?" I asked while looking into her eyes. "I want to take you away with me, out of that palace."
Satiana was silent in surprise. Maybe she didn't expect me to ask her to come with me when I escape the palace.
"I would love to go with you big sis." Satiana's eyes sparkled with life. "I am happy that someone other than big brother Gladi loves me as family." Tears started to go down from Satiana's cheeks.
"Oh Sati." I felt touched with Satiana's expression. I hugged her in my arms and patted her head. "I am happy to have a little sister like you."
Satiana was sobbing in my arms and calmed down after a while. I took out my handkerchief and wiped her tears away.
"Now, now. We don't want your eyes to swell from crying, would we?" I was also holding my tears back. These were tears of joy. I was feeling Satiana's happiness. "We would be arriving soon. Let's freshen you up." I smiled at her.
