People at the doorstep- Part 2

Back in the room, Madeline sat next to Beth, holding her sister's hand as Beth cried for something she had no clue of. Her sister hadn't seen the creature of death, which was why it made Madeline wonder if Beth was scared to die right now. 

"Raphael said until the third one doesn't appear, you are still safe. The creature cannot take you away with it, Beth," Madeline consoled her sister. 

Beth sniffed. After Calhoun had left the room, she felt the heavyweight she had been carrying on her shoulders had finally started to break down along with her, leaving her in tears by thinking of her past actions. She was too ashamed to speak about it, and she didn't know if her sister would ever forgive her for the other things, which Calhoun had not brought up with her. 

Madeline patted her sister's back, "Nothing will happen to you. You heard what Calhoun said. He will not let any harm befall on you."
