The Slave Trade
Cold winds were blowing in Mazic these days.
Hannah, Miri, and Ami were taking care of Evelyn. Dan didn't favor Evelyn going outside the chambers for the next few days as the shoulder on her wound had become grave and hence should be protected from the winds.
Hence the three girls just had to look for some games and other things with which they could keep busy.
However, as time passed, Hannah, Miri, and Ami seemed to realize that Evelyn could see what they were trying to do…especially when she confessed one fine morning.
"You don't need to do so much for me."
Evelyn said to Ami who was feeding her. The three girls had paused when they heard her words.
When Evelyn saw them so silent, she sighed and said
"I know what you are trying to do but I am fine."
Or if she isn't then she will be. She just needed some time…thought Evelyn.
