Bab 243: STANDING TALL

[MUSIC RECOMMENDATION: EYE OF THE TIGER ~ SURVIVOR]

Axilla, after spending a great time with Lady Hash, finally allowed the woman to rest. It was already mid-afternoon; she had lost track of time yet she still couldn't get enough. After helping the woman tuck properly in bed, she left to find Kayla. Cortez had left very early in the morning and he was not yet back; she was worried he was still mad at her for the way she reacted the other night.

"But Lady Hash said he won't be angry." She bit her lower lip gently, searching for Kayla all around the place. When she didn't see her, Axilla decided to stay in the flower garden all by herself.

"Cortez really loves flowers; I wish to know about them just like him." She muttered to herself, touching each flower gently, avoiding to rip them out. She paused in her movement when she remembered the figure she had seen earlier.
