บท 151: Explain It To Me

Saddened and scared, with sweaty palms and laden minds, Kathy and Sandra returned to the palace. At the back of Kathy's mind, she hoped she would run into Zuri on the way to the palace or even while there. But as they kept on walking, looking all around them, Kathy and Sandra didn't find Zuri or even anyone who resembled her.

"Did Prince Jaden's human slave return?" Sandra asked one of the servants she bumped into upon entering the main building.

The servants shook her head and continued on to where she was going.

Kathy heard what Sandra asked and bit down on her bottom lip. She had not told Sandra what the men she met said to her -- and that was because Kathy didn't totally believe what they had said. But the more she thought about it, the more disturbed she became.

"I saw one man with Zuri's hair ruffle," Kathy said in a low voice.

Sandra had just returned from asking another person about Zuri, so she wasn't paying attention to what Kathy said.
