Melting Ice

Mira was standing beside Silja without saying a word. While Silja was in her own world of dreams.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door followed by the heavy sound of footsteps entering the main chamber.

Silja turned her head and found her brother standing not far away.

"Brother..," Silja stood up from her bed.

"I want to talk to you," Benjamin walked further in.

Silja looked at him for a moment with complicated expressions on her face before she looked at the maids.

Mira understood and led everyone out.

"Come sit here," Silja walked towards the chair and sat down.

After they talked last time things became a bit awkward between them.

Her heart was feeling heavy but she didn't let that show on her face because she knew that if that happened their relationship would worsen.

Benjamin was feeling guilty about the way he had behaved with her.
