(Author’s POV)
"I don’t know what really happened between you and Nora, but~ ... it is just that .... you guys have been like ...... how should I put it .... crib mates? Yeah, crib mates, together since the beginning. You have been so much together. So, I just find it sad that you guys aren’t talking to each other," Yelena expressed her heartfelt view on the situation.
Myra bit her bottom lip, in order to stifle her tears, her eyes had gotten slightly moist. She got emotional as she heard these words. From the past year, she hadn’t talked to Nora nor has she even mentioned about her to anybody, not to Yelena, not to her parents or Wendy, not to anyone.
She thought she had already left her past behind, that Nora’s name didn’t affect her anymore. That she was just a fragment of her past which she has left behind in Damona. But, boy ... how wrong was she.
The air turned heavy and sulky, morose as Yelena could sense the sudden shift in Myra’s mood. She didn’t say another word, just patted Myra’s shoulder softly and said, "It is getting late, maybe we should return back to your home now."
Myra just nodded in response absentmindedly as they both walked back to Myra’s house. The walk was silent but not tranquil, neither of them spoke anything on their way back home. But their minds were racing with numerous thoughts, the worries of their own.
After entering the house, they were going upstairs to their respective rooms. Just then Sandra came out of hers and asked, while rubbing her groggy eyes, "Did you two go on a night walk?"
"Yes, mom," Myra answered, her voice low, a bit weary.
Sandra sensed it. She tried to lighten the mood, "A walk after dinner is good for one’s digestion. From tomorrow on, can I join you both?"
"Why are you being all formal, Aunt Sandra? Of course, you can come with us," Yelena answered, her tone light. "But what are you doing? I thought you and Uncle had already gone to bed."
"Ohh~ ... we ran out of water, so I came to get a refill. Do you both need anything? Should I bring warm turmeric milk for you?" Sandra asked affectionately.
"Thanks for asking, Aunt. But I am going to hit the sack now," Yelena replied while yawning.
Myra also declined politely, "Mom, you must have been exhausted after a long day of work. You should rest as well, good night."
"Are you sure you both need anything?" Sandra asked again.
