Chapter 83

Alanna arrived home and her father still wasn't there. She was grateful that he was still at work and not able to see how sad she was. That meant she would have hours to change the expression on her face.

She went to her room, took a new bath to relax and lay down on her bed, wearing a bathrobe.

Alanna ended up falling asleep and, this time, she dreamed of Morana. Waking up to her father's knocking on the door, Alanna completely forgot what she had dreamed of, other than that the witch was in it.

"How was the interview?" he asked, through the door.

"I didn't pass." She replied, opening the door.

Gosh… I'm sorry, Lana."

"It's all right. I love the bookstore." She shrugged.

"Want to go out for something to eat? Or order a delivery?"

"Hmmm, delivery. I'm not really in the mood to go out."

"It's all right. Japanese?" Sebastian asked and Alanna nodded.
