THE LONG MEETING XV

When Eva and Maya stepped into the hall a few minutes later, the murmurings in the hall stopped immediately as if put on a pause. The attention of all was drawn to the little Eva still in Maya's arms clutching a cute baby doll.

Freya smiled as she saw the both walk toward her. She nodded empathetically at Eva whom she caught at intervals staring down at her doll with longing eyes.

This must be another favourite doll of hers. Freya thought before stretching her hand so that Eva would deposit the doll in there.

She made a mental note to get the girl a bunch of dolls during one of these days since she will be staying in the county and attending college. Aiden still needed to be a professor to be on lookout for the cave of baresis. It was important to their people.

"Thanks a lot, Eva. I will buy a finer one soon." She promised, staring at a nodding Eva keenly.
