Surprise at Night
The day turned to twilight. The sky outside was dark orange. Lisa decided to return to her boarding house which she had left for a long time. All the way to the nearest busway stop, her mind was trapped in a flash of painful sentences that Bella and her mother said to her. The memory felt like a bullet that pierced Lisa's heart and put a gaping hole in her chest.
As long as she lived with her younger sister, this was the first time she felt hurt knowing that the girl did something beyond mean to her just because of a trivial matter. Since childhood, Bella had always been spoiled by Kumala, so it was always her duty to protect Bella from danger ever since they were kids. Seeing her sister distrust her good intentions made Lisa's heart even more shattered.
Her heart was beating fast thinking about the harsh and painful sentences that had escaped Bella's lips earlier in the house. During her trip back to the boarding house by busway, her heart still couldn't be calm.
