Capítulo 60: Broken Link

¬ HILN

I stared hard at her. She stood straight, prim and proper like she was of royalty, a stance I had never seen her take. Gone were the braids I used to weave in her hair, replaced by a cascade of straight light blue hair that tumbled down her shoulders and waist. They fell short of her ankles, where the frayed edges of her fitted white dress came to an end.

She was considerably taller.

This was Melody...

My heart quivered. She wasn't human. She had never been.

Neither was Strome.

Nor my mother.

Not even myself!

And possibly, not my father…

Father… my eyes watered and I rushed towards Melody. Her widened white eyes and startled step back betrayed her surprise. She certainly hadn't anticipated my sudden approach. Regardless of it all, it hurt that I wasn't about to hit the 'Melody' I knew.
