“You don’t have to leave the convent sister, it’s really not a safe place out there” Hera’s sister, Christina spoke out as she handed the folded clothes to Hera who received it with gratitude.
Christina had no idea why her sister has insisted on leaving the convent in search of a job. She has heard wild and creepy stories from the other sisters about the illicit things people do out there. The list is endless so she had come to a conclusion that the convent is the safest place for her to be.
It was almost like Hera was walking away from paradise straight into the lion’s den. She had tried to tell her otherwise but the girl is adamant and would not listen. Hera had always been stubborn so there’s no surprise there.
Sometimes she wishes that her parents were alive. They wouldn’t have let them indulge in something as preposterous as this but they were orphans who found grace with God through the sisters that were sent to come to their rescue and now twenty years later, Hera is going back there into the wild.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“I know that you’re scared but I promise that I will be fine.” Came Hera’s reply “I want to find a better place for both of us. That has always been the plan and I’m grateful that the sisters are supporting me in this as well. Can’t you trust me just once?” Her voice came out soft and smooth that Christina found herself nodding in affirmation.
Hera has a way of talking calmly even in the midst of problems that you most definitely would be swayed.
“I trust you but I’m going to miss you a lot. What if something bad happens to you? What if you don’t come back for me?” Christina’s voice came out trembling. She had always been the weakest one when it came to both of them.
Hera knew how much Christina loved her. They always had each other’s back for the longest of time and she knows that leaving would crush her but she doesn’t have a choice. She doesn’t want to grow up in the convent for the rest of her life. She wants to have her own business and be very successful one day but that would never happen if she’s locked up in here forever.
She had her life already mapped out. Firstly, she’s going to secure a job and save up enough to get her own apartment in the city and after that, she’d train herself through college so that she would graduate and find a better job.
But none of this would happen if she doesn’t leave. It’s a huge risk that she’s willing to take but what she didn’t expect was the news crushing her little sister.
She opened her arms and a crying Christina walked into them, engulfing her in an embrace.
“I will come back for you my little bunny and that’s a promise I intend to keep. They have already accepted me for the job and I’m certain that everything will be okay” She assured her with a smile.
Weeks ago, Hera was able to apply for the position of a housekeeper through an agency in the big city and she’s supposed to resume today but she was able to plead with the agency to start tomorrow, hence her packing.
Christina nodded a reply.
There’s no changing Hera’s mind when she’s made a decision so she has no other choice but to accept. Even the sisters has given their blessings so nothing’s stopping her from going.
“Thank you, now please help me pack”
“Of course” Christina forced a smile before proceeding to pick up the clothes that was scattered on the bed and into the box.
