Stupid Trick

"So, that's pretty much everything that went down," Fleicie said, taking a deep breath, waiting for the inevitable loud scream that was coming.

But she received none of that, only the stupefied gaze of Mrs. Doublenun.

"You! I...," Mrs. Doublenun struggled to say, yet no words came out. The only thing she could do was approach Fleicie and give her a very deep hug.

"I'll just say, you should be careful, Fleicie. Your father's spirit would watch over you..." She said, something she herself knew would have no doubt surprised her.

But what could she say? The little lady had already left her home, ignoring her uncle's advice, one of the people closest to her.

It was more than clear she had resolved her heart to leaving the place and embarking on the journey.

Right now, she was too far beyond saving, and any advice against it would do nothing but be counterproductive. On that note, all she could do was pray for her to be okay.
