CXXIII
"Why are you leaving?" Amaira sadly asked as tears flew down her face. She was crying because her best friend said he had to go away.
She would miss him terribly, even Doctor Jace and Aunt Cathy. She had grown up with them by her side. She had considered them family, but now, she watched them pack up their things.
She was on her way home from the playground. She was surprised that Kiev did not show up from their playtime. So, she decided to drop by his house to check on her friend.
"Because I am sick," Kiev answered his friend. "Remember that I kept passing out. Dad said we have to go to this place with Uncle Adam so I can get better."
He did not understand much about the conversation he overheard, but he believed it had something to do with him. They had not said much about his condition, but he could sense it was worrying all of them.
