I'm Sorry!
Rebecca finally reached the unconscious people lying on the ground. She went to the guy's side and looked at him with hatred blazing in her eyes.
She drew her dagger about to stab the guy's heart, but she heard a tiny voice whispering in her ears. 'Child, you promised me not to kill the guy!'
Damn! That was Granny's voice!
She groaned, and the dagger disappeared from her hand.
She released a deep sigh. She retraced her step and went back to the house. She went to Granny's room and checked if she was already awake. Granny was still sleeping soundly in her bed. She exited the room and went to the kitchen to prepare food for Granny and the guests.
Forty-five minutes later.
Outside the house.
Zero opened his eyes, followed by Nini.
They sit upright, looked at each other, and roamed their eyes around the area.
Zero's face erupted in happiness. "We're free! We're safe! We finally left that dreadful place!" he told his companion.
