270 Brewing Storm

Like a nuclear bomb that was dropped from the sky into the mind of October, a resounding sound so loud and destructive overwhelmed her mind. Her mind was in chaos then blanked out. Her eyes stared blankly at Grandpa He as she tried to process this information.

'Mo-mom…poisoned…mur-dered?' She thought, reiterating the key points.

She was still young back then, so naïve and carefree to see the disgusting and warped faces of all people. How can she have the mind to notice such thing? No. This is just an excuse, an excuse she can think of as a way of dodging the fault from her. She was there by her mother's side and yet she was not able to see anything amiss.

'What kind of a fool I was?!' October felt cold and empty. Even if it was just a thought, she knew that 'he' was involved. Just the thought of him made her shudder.
