Why
The whole house is scattered and their mama is lying helpless with blood oozing out of her body while Wynstar was just at the corner too weak to move but still alive.
Kyra stood in place, skin as pale as paper shocked looking like a statue with her hand over her mouth and Kiara is crying running to her mama and screaming.
"MAMA MAMA MAMA WAKE UP" Kiara screamed shaking her mother's body vigorously.
"I know you are not dead just talk to me please" she cried harder.
Kiara placed her head on her mother's chest to check the heart beat and she got nothing. She checked the pulse and still nothing. The knowledge that her mother was dead and she couldn't be saved no matter the medical attention caused her to wail even more.
Tears at the verge of Kyra's eyes threatening to come out, but she tries her best to be strong and does the best but the hardest thing in this type of situation, NO PANICKING AND QUICK THINKING- 'who will do this to mama, what do they want from her, will they come for me and my sister too' she thought still in the same position she was when they first saw her mama lying helpless.
"Kyra what will we do mama is dead, MAMA IS DEAD," Kiara asked her sister still crying seriously
'What will we do?' Kyra thought
'Run, what if the people who killed mama are out for you and your sister' her subconscious tells her
'Very true' she thought.
Wynstar!
'Wynstar, where is Wynstar' she thought, it was finally registering in her brain that Wynstar was at the other corner very weak.
She walked over to Wynstar and saw that she had an injury on her left hind limb.
'an injury can't make her this weak she is a strong, maybe she was given something' she thought
The tiger was too strong for a common injury to make her weak. Of a certain age was given something.
She calmed down and walked to her mama's room and collected some of the herbs that work really quickly. The herbs are still fresh, it looked like she collected them not to long. She walked to the kitchen and took water and a bowl and squeezed out the liquid from the herb.
Her mama usually used the herb for them if they were weak saying it is magical, though Kyra doesn't believe in magic but she knows that it works.
She gave Wynstar to drink and she gulped it down in a jiffy. She then rubbed the washed herb on the wound and tore from the edge of her dress to tie around the wounded leg carefully.
'How can she be so calm when we just lost mama, she's busy taking care of Wynstar like she doesn't care that mama is gone' Kiara thought still crying so hard, with her eyes puffed out and her whole body pale as paper.
A few minutes later Wynstar was already strong. This is why their mama called the herb magical. Kyra was only waiting for Wynstar to heal so they can leave the place -she has already collected money from her mama's room, her mama saved a lot of money and the ones she and Kiara had saved up, but go where, she had been thinking.
Kyra doesn't want to cry especially because of her sister, if she is weak what will her sister do? She has to be strong for her.
'I must find those who killed my mother and avenge her death' Kyra said a silent promise to herself.
"Kiara we leave now" Kyra said talking to Kiara and Wynstar got up understanding her.
"Why?" is all Kiara asks her sister in confusion. But that why meant many things- why are you acting like you don't care, why are you not weeping or I'm I the only one who loves mama, why are you not affected by her death, why are you taking care of Wynstar at a point like this or is she all that matters, why are you keeping a straight face, why is your heart made of stone are you even human, why, why, why.
Kyra knowing her sister knows exactly what she meant and just sighed.
"See mama is gone and honestly there's nothing any of us can do, ok? I had to tend to Wynstar's injury so we can leave this place they might be out for us I mean the people who killed her, we have to run, hide and find out who killed mama and I'm being like this for you if I join you in weeping and wailing I wouldn't have thought of that and how would it be if I'm weeping with you who will take care of you, I'm supposed to be your backbone, I'm your older sister" Kyra said looking at her sister with lots of emotions dancing in her glistening emerald eyes (you can see that she's holding the tears in with the way her eyes are shiny) , and Kiara can't help but wonder when did Kyra turn to this serious person, she's always so playful how did she get to reason all of this and be so strong.
"Ok sis" Kiara said still sobbing. Kyra left and came back with two hoods in her hand, a big bag with which she kept a few clothes, a few foodstuffs and fruits, a few other things they might need too and all the money they had -the money was enough for them for now so now they had to think strategically- and a leech and collar they had bought for Wynstar that they don't really use much. Now they have good use of it.
They wore the hoods over their heads and with that, they left the house with nowhere to go.
It was early March so it was cold outside, good thing they wore thick hoods. Winter just passed so the cold is still lingering.
"Where do we go sis" Kiara asked her sister, she has now stopped crying -but looking at her you'll know right away that she had been crying.
Her eyes were puffed out and they were red.
"Honestly I don't know" Kyra said and Kiara sighed in frustration.
"I think I know where we can stay for now" Kyra informed Kiara who had lost all hope.
"Where"
"Remember that small cottage we go to play in, in the woods when we were younger" Kyra said.
"Yes I do remember" Kiara says trying to figure out what her sister is planning.
"We could clean it up and use it, I have a lock and a key we could use to lock it when we go out and there is also a bolt at the back of the door inside the house to lock it when we are inside, it's big enough for all three of us to stay in" Kyra said to Kiara.
"Ok good idea, let us go there then" Kiara said with a slight sad smile on her face that didn't even reach her eyes.
'At least she smiled' Kyra thought and smiled inwardly.
With that they left for the woods.
They got into the cottage and open the door - which makes a loud noise indicating that the house is very old and has not been used of recent.
The cottage was very dirty and scattered, with cobwebs at every freaking corner of the house.
'Good thing I brought soap and there are a few cleaning tools here, we are going to do a lot of cleaning' Kyra thought and sighed.
"I brought soap and there are some cleaning tools over there, so we will clean this place we can't stay here like this, ok?" Kyra tells Kiara
"Thank you sis .... for thinking out of the box and for trying to make sure I'm ok when you aren't yourself, thank you for thinking wisely when I was busy being a cry baby, you are the best sister anyone could ever wish for, I love you so much" Kiara said and rushed to her sister to hug her while sobbing again.
"It's ok and I love you" Kyra says hugging her back and patting her reassuringly.
With that they cleaned and mopped the whole house dusted the mattress and placed a sheet over it, there were a few dishes in the kitchen they washed them sparkling clean and arranged their foodstuffs in the kitchen cabinets and their clothes in the room.
There was a well outside the cottage, so they drew water out of it to bathe.
Soon the night came, and since they were exhausted mentally, emotionally and physically they couldn't go hunting for dinner they just boiled some rice they came with and drank water from the well. Wynstar had already eaten the day before and tigers don't need to eat every day.
One big meal can sustain them for a considerable amount of days.
"You are lucky you are an animal, you didn't get to do any work" Kiara huffed at Wynstar folding her arms over her chest and Wynstar just bowed her head like she was sad she couldn't help and Kyra just giggled sadly.
Poor Wynstar.
