– Bisca - PoV –
All these years, I was worried about how you were, did you eat well, did you properly take care of yourself?
The day you ran away,
It seemed like a normal morning, I didn't sleep the whole night thinking if I go away will you be able to take care of yourself, who will cook you breakfast, your lunch, your dinner, who will make your hair, what will you do if a sudden storm came, who will hold you to make sure that you were safe.
I can't get these thoughts out of my mind, since the day I met you,
15 years ago, I was 7 and my mother first took me to the Walien household. She wanted me to watch and learn and I followed her with sparkles in my eyes.
I helped my mother in the kitchen and helped her cook a sweet dessert. She was smiling so beautifully when she was making that Apple pie that I was stunned for a moment.
'Mother, did you really like apple pie so much?' I peeked into the oven and it was the same as usual she makes for me,
"What?" giggling, she gently caressed and pulled my cheek, "why do you think so?"
'Well, you were grinning and humming for a while, when you were making that Apple pie, why so?' I freed my cheeks from her hands and rubbed them,
"Hmmm, why am I so happy? Well, why don't you see it with me?" She patted my head and after a short while, while the pie was ready, my mother pulled out the tray and slice the pie. I prepared the tray and garnished it with rose petals as she taught me.
"Oh, I have an idea! Why don't you come with me?" My mother picked up the tray and told me to follow her, I held her skirt and slowly walked with her to a room.
"Can you open the door for me?" She looked at me and, I opened the door, I entered the room and saw a beautiful lady reading a book on the bed.
"How are you now, milady?" My mother smiled and put the try beside her,
"Cassy! What's this apple pie?" The lady brightened up as soon as he saw my mother,
I galloped behind my mother peeked at her,
"Hmm? Who is this little kitten? Is this Bisca?!" She looked at mother and my mother nodded,
"Come on introduce yourself, she is lady Miola, the mistress of this house." My mother patted my back and I walked forward.
I slowly stepped forward and bowed to greet her,
'Good morning, my name is Bisca Geroms, it is a pleasure to meet you.'
"Ha! So cute! Come here you adorable thing!" She grabbed my cheeks and then snuggled me, then I realized she was having a baby!
I saw her belly and my heart raced with curiosity,
'Um- lady? Are you? Are you going to give birth?!' Without realizing I caressed her belly,
"Bisca! It's rude! I am sorry milady!" My mother shouted at me in low voice, while she was preparing her a plate of pie,
"It's fine! It's fine!" The lady shrugged and patted my head, "I am surprised, aren't you smart for a small kid, I still remember you were this small when I first saw you, I visited you home, and your mother often brought you here, but really how much you have grown in two years! Where were you! Harris missed you so much!"
'I was at grandma's home, I went to school there, but she is gone now so…' I teared up a bit and she wiped my tears,
"Hey don't cry now, you see since you loved your grandma so much, God was envious, so he called your grandma up in heaven, to know will you still love grandma if she is not with you?"
'But the lady isn't everyone supposed to die?' They never taught me this in school….
She gasped and averted her eyes and my mother broke a small laugh,
"Damn you are smart! Ah well anyway,
Um-
Ah-
Now, what should I say?
Yes!" She grabbed my hand put it on her belly,
"You see here, a small girl is waiting to see you."
'Really?' I gasped,
"Yes! So can you promise me one thing, when she comes here will you be her big sister?" She looked at me and I was so happy at that moment that I was at a loss for words, I nodded and she hugged me again,
"Ah, you are so cute!, Yup I decided you live here too!"
"But lady!" My mother suddenly looked tense,
"No buts! I heard your landlord is rude to you! There is no need to live there anymore! Of course, we don't have many rooms but we can accommodate you and this small kitten!" The lady giggled,
"Tell me Bisca, don't you want to look after you, little sister?"
'Yes!'
That's how I ended up in their house. I lived there and helped my mother with small chores, but most of my time was spent in Lady Miola's room.
I also saw him for the first time there, a boy who spent most of the time on the ground training to become a strong night, she sometimes sat close to the window and watched him training with a smile on her face.
A month passed and Lady Miola went to the hospital. I was waiting eagerly in the kitchen making her favorite apple for her return. Then I heard the door opening. I wanted to meet her but my pie wasn't ready. I thought I would surprise her with it so I waited…
When it was ready, I hurriedly made the plate and ran into her room, but she wasn't there. Then I heard a baby crying. I ran outside and saw a carriage in front of the door. I dashed outside, balancing my tray.
I stepped outside and saw, Lord and young master with my mother, and some of the villagers around too, they were looking at the carriage in front of them, she must be there!
Slowly walking toward the carriage, I raised my tray in front of it,
'Lady Miola! Congratulations!' There was nobody in the carriage but a person sleeping with a blanket covering their face. She must be tired!
I thought and moved from there and then I saw my mother looking at me, with tears flowing down her eyes.
Not just her, everybody was crying, I was looking at them without a clue what was going on, then again I heard a baby cry,
It was in the arm of my mother, covered in a soft cloth, I walked to my mother and pulled her skirt, a stinging anxiety was aching my chest, I don't want to go through that again!
'Mother? Why are all of you crying?' I smiled thinking they were just happy to see the child,
"Bisca! What are you?..." She wiped her tears and crouched to me, the baby was still crying and I saw her for the first time, small and soft. She looked so fragile like she would break with the small graze of wind. She was moving her hand while crying and I patted her head.
"Bisca, you want to hold her?" My mother looked at me with her swollen eyes and I nodded,
She slowly gave me the baby and gangly brought her close to my chest. She was so light and fluffy I almost thought she would slip by hand.
"Bisca, now you have to look after her." She hugged me with her gently,
'But- what about Miola? How can I?'
"She is no longer with us, she left us after giving birth to her, she told me, she wanted you to look after her…"
Suddenly her memories came before my eyes,
She was there on her bed, with me reading one of her fairytale books to the baby she looked at me and said,
"You know Bisca, I can feel the baby happy inside me!"
And my mother's voice reached my ears again, "You don't need to worry, I will help-"
'I will!' I shouted, 'I will protect and take care of her! So when you go to bid her farewell, tell her that I will look after her until she becomes a splendid woman like her!'
( present time )
That day I found someone that I wanted to cherish my whole life, time passed by, no matter what the time was I was beside her when she laughed or cried when she was scared or excited I was there to see her growth.
Little by little, I realized there was also someone who cherished me the same as I cherish Lady Jane. Time flowed like a river, and I found love and family in the same place. I felt happiest in the world.
Though once again I lost something precious and then again, I didn't break because I still had you, but if anything were to happen to you, I would lose everything.
I looked at lady Jane smiling looking at that boy Rise, I can't tell how happy I am, I pray for your happiness lady Jane, I am happy.
