บท 113: Endorsed

"Why?" Ellie asked in incredulity. "Is this because of what my brother said? It's just a child's dream. He's been having these dreams since my parents died. I believe it's because he's scared and misses them. It's not something you should take seriously."

"I guess you don't know your brother as much as I know him." Storm stated, finding her words ignorant.

"What do you mean by that? You only came to know him a few days ago. I've been with him since the day he was born. How can you know him better than I do?"

"Just do as I said. Stay away from rivers and pools from now on. Understood?" Storm asked, leaving her question unanswered.

*Can I ask a question?"

"Answer me first."

"Yes. I will not go close to any river or pool. Understood." Ellie affirmed.

"Good. What's your question?"

"Promise to answer honestly."

"No." Storm refused.

"Then it's useless asking if you won't answer."
