Trial Of Love
/ Trial Of Love Chapter 410 - My Beloved Sister
On top of a tree, Elizabeth examines the area like a hawk. She watches every corner for a sign of this secret palace. As she stood high above, some memories of the place flashed into her mind. She could only bitterly smile for the memory was vivid and not clear but the feeling was real.
"I must have been here before then…" She mumbled bitterly as she felt pain within for not remembering such a mysterious place.
She continued to watch around and let her mind recall memories of the place. For deep down, she was sure she'd been to the palace before.
"Girlie!"
Elizabeth turned around to find where the voice came from.
"Girlie, over here!" Jo shouted who was above a tree as well a few feet away from hers. "I don't see the palace at all."
Elizabeth rolled her eyes in disappointment. She was expecting the boy to report to her with good news yet he too ended up with nothing. As she gaze around the forest more, she took a deep breath before deciding to head down and give up.
"Girlie, what should we do?" Jo shouted aloud when he noticed her climbing down the tree.
"What else…" She replied desperately that the boy's brain will answer it's own ridiculous question.
"Are you heading down already?" He answered her with another nonsensical question.
Elizabeth looked up at him as her brow knit together as she frowned annoyingly at him for he kept asking such nonsense questions.
"Oh, I see… I'll head down too." Jo responded embarrassedly realizing that the girl seems to be not in the mood and wonders why.
As Elizabeth slowly made her way down the tree, a sudden thought struck her, causing her to lose balance and slide down, leading her to fall to the ground…
"Girlie!!!" Jo shouted when he saw Elizabeth stumbling down the tree and falling flat to the ground.
"Ah-"
The young girl was staring at the tree she just fell from as every inch of her body was in pain.
"Ah-" she cried.
"That was stupid." A voice said from behind her.
"Shut up!" The girl shouted furiously as she tried to move but her body was in too much pain, "Aw!"
"Hha, stupid girl. What were you thinking?"
"Get lost!" She annoyedly spoke as her tone became more angerier.
The image of the boy became clear as he stood right in front of the girl. His shadowed cover the face of the girl from the sun as she had a clearer vision of him. He smiled seeing how much pain the girl was in. He had this mocking face and wished to tease the girl more…
"If you have nothing else to do get lost!" She yelled coldly at him.
"You do know, it's almost sundown soon." He responded.
The girl did not say anything and continued to frowned…
"Should I help you?" He suggested with a teaseful smile.
"Hmm… I don't need your help at all."
"Fine then, have it your way."
The boy left without another word causing the girl to be fl.u.s.tered and surprised that the young boy just left her in such a state.
"Did he really just leave?" She mumbled to herself.
She wished to check but her body has turned numb from all the pain. Just lifting her finger was so hard and the pain was like electrifying her whole body. The jolting feeling was making her tears fall for no reason.
Not long did the young boy's words come into reality. Soon the sun had bid it farewell and the moon stood high above. As the moon rises, the place turned dark and the wind became colder. As the wind blew, the tree branches made a cracking sound making such an eerie feeling…
"Damn it!" She cried annoyed that she couldn't move at all.
As time passed, the wind became even more stronger and her surroundings became even more creepier. Soon, owls and other animals made it way causing such a frightening scene…
The young girl who acted tough girl soon turned pale not because of the coldness but because of her surroundings. She has no fear of the dark nor wild animals but was frightened of something beyond our imagination.
"Who's there?" She shouted shakily frightened of the sudden sound she heard.
The girl's face became even more paler when no one responded. Yet, she could hear brunched crunching and cracking. She would it was caused by the footstep of either an animal or a man.
As the sound of the footstep came closer and soon vanished. It made her wonder…
"Who's there?"
Yet again no one answered…
Soon tears fell down the girl's face, she was so frightened and was shivering.
"Scott, where are you?" She cried for help yet no one answered.
"Scott."
"Pleeaase…"
She continued to cry, yet no one came for her.
As her vision started to fade, she noticed a bright light heading her way. She also heard footsteps of not only one but a few.
"Silly girl." Scott who came with a few men came to bring the girl home.
"Young Miss."
"Miss Liz."
The servants all panic since they have been searching for her.
"Get lost!" Scott shouted as he went closer to the girl causing everyone from making a single move.
Servants: "Young Master?"
Scott went ahead and picked up the girl. He wrapped her tightly in her arms. "Silly girl, why are you crying?"
"Hmm, I wasn't crying because I was scared." She responded.
"Then, what's this?" He wiped off the tear stain on her face.
"Fine, I was scared." She sneezed after being out in the cold for too long.
"Of what?" He curiously inquired.
"Hmm…" She averted her face and buried herself in his chest.
He realized what she was frightened of and chuckled. He said nothing and carried her away. "Silly girl, why are you so frightened of when the Reaper is by your side."
"Let's go home…" She muttered and ignored what he said.
He chuckled lightly seeing the girl just ignored him, "Fine, let's go home."
"Scott, thank you." She yawned.
"For what?" He wondered as he watched her make her way to dreamland.
"For… For staying by my side." She mumbled as she yawned once more.
"What are you talking about?" He was dumbfounded as to what she meant.
"You never left me didn't you…" Her sleepy face looked up at him as she smiled brightly like the moon.
Scott was taken aback and over the moon by her smile. She was so beautiful in his eyes despite her pale and bluish lips.
"Go to sleep." He responded.
"I know you like me, you only act mean in front of others so I can stand on my own. But, by the end of the day, you'll always be there for me."
"Liz, you talk too much, you should have stayed with the old man instead." He complained yet deep down he was embarrassed of all the words the girl said.
She giggled away and yawned, "Thanks Big Brother…"
Scott turned his face away from her and a slight smile formed on his face. As he looked back on the girl she was already fast asleep.
"Sleep well my beloved sister."
As a flash of bright light shine another voice echoed from behind.
"Girlie, wake up!"
"Girlie, are you alright?"
"Wake up!"
Elizabeth woke up from her slight coma. She was bewildered by what just happened. She looked at Jo clueless unsure of everything.
"Girlie, hey, are you alright?" Jo shook her to face him as he question her again, "Are you alright?"
Elizabeth tried to recall what happened, as her mind replayed the events that happened recently, she reached the point of her falling down at the same time a familiar situation happened
"I know the way." She spoke as she got up without explaining to Jo how she felt.
"Hey, girlie?" Jo was shocked to see her running and followed instead.
"Hey, wait!"
Elizabeth did not stop and continue running, as she passed through the different bushes and trees, memories of her past too flashed in front of her. The place looked like an abandoned forest but what she was seeing was different. She was seeing it as a beautiful well maintained forest covered with various beautiful flowers.
"Girlie, where are you going?"
Jo was out of breath when he finally reached the girl, as he came closer to her, he grabbed her and vented out. "Girlie, hey…"
Before he could finish what he was about to say, he was taken aback by the beautiful building standing in front of them.
"You've been here." He mumbled.
She said nothing but only nodded once in answering him. She walked closer to the front staircase of the front door. Every step she made was like a familiar feeling. Her memories flash so happily as she recalled joyful memories of the place.
"Big Brother, I'm home."
