บท 65: First Gift Call of Duty

Rio, unaware of Artemis's thoughts, was busy chatting with Amelia. He took out a simple folded paper from his pockets, and held up a single earring, beautifully crafted with a golden color metal and a shimmering green jewel at its center.

However, Amelia's innocent surprise was evident when she noticed that it was only meant for one ear. Confusion flickered across her face as she tried to make sense of it. She looked at Rio with a questioning expression, wondering why there was only one earring.

Rio took out the other earring but instead of placing it in her hands like before, he extended his hand towards Artemis. Artemis took the earring which had the similar designs as the other, but this one had a red jewel in it, instead of a green one.

"The other one is for Mother." Rio said, as he looked at Amelia's face. He smiled when he watched Amelia's doubting face turning into an angry face. 

"You always do this, brother. It was my gift, not mother's."
