"Then we are the same, I also like all types of tea. But there are some teas that I really like throughout my life, it's black tea. One of the teas that is quite unique from the manufacturing process. Compared to green tea, black tea has to go through a different process. longer before it can be enjoyed. Black tea leaves are usually harvested, left to wither, ground, oxidized, and dried. The oxidation process is what distinguishes it from other types of tea. When going through this process, the tea leaves react with oxygen, resulting in the color of the leaves changing to dark brown or black".

"Uniquely, the best tea in the world is known as red tea in China. Not only found in China, black tea is also produced in India and Sri Lanka. Assam, Darjeeling, and Caylon Tea are some of the best black tea producers from these countries".

".When you taste it, the taste of black tea is quite strong and bold, a bit like coffee. Naturally, if the type of black tea is considered to have the most caffeine content".

"But I don't drink black tea very often, because that kind of tea reminds me of my husband. to this day I always remember everything he said about the types of tea. You know what I mean?." Grandma Lecy statement made me a little smile.

Because basically, I don't understand why she explained about the tea making process. One of the waiters started pouring tea into one of our glasses, I just kept quiet and watched all the waiter's movements with a flat gaze.

"Let's have a drink." grandmother Lecy told me to drink first, I noticed the glass she had not lifted. should i drink first?

I raised the glass in my hand, then glanced briefly at that glass where still steaming hot tea. I brought my lips to the edge of the glass and began to slowly sip the tea.

then I glanced at Grandma Lecy and began to lower the glass again from my hand, only then did Grandma Lecy Raise her glass and drink with a graceful motion.

I'm just silent, I don't know, what should i say right now. I think all of this feels strange and unpleasant, Grandma Lecy and I are not close in a relationship. she also looks very fierce and mysterious, I'm afraid to make a mistake on her. I could end my life if I made even small mistakes.

"Aren't you afraid I'm poisoned?" One question that is quite strange I heard from her lips.

"No, why should I be afraid? Don't you want me to give birth to a successor fro this family ?? Especially now that I'm waiting to get pregnant." I said quietly, I said a little boldly. maybe.. i am just confident.

"You're smart, you know we can't kill you right now, But later." Grandma Lecy was so honest, I just nodded my head and looked out at the lake.

Some of the maids had already left, and the bodyguards were already standing a little further away from us. Grandma Lecy's gaze was very sharp towards me, I was confused why she kept staring at me without stopping?

"If you're really pregnant, give us a little boy and stay as far away from this place as possible. I'll make sure you live comfortably out there, after my grandson is born. If you're stubborn about staying in this mansion. you will die without anyone knowing it. your corpse may be thrown into the sea and eaten by sea animals." Once again Grandma Lecy was telling the truth, but I didn't know or looked horribly at her.

Even though she's said pretty scary things.

"But I don't intend to go far, I've been in this country since I was a kid and I've loved the country I live in. Why should I go? Just because I'm afraid to die? Everyone will die in time, maybe I will live forever to old age and got senile. We don't know anything, do we?" I took another sip of the still warm tea, drinking it almost to the brim. My hands also casually took one of the snacks, Chocolate cake cut into small squares. I picked it up with one of the small forks, chewing it slowly as it entered my mouth.

Very sweet, taste quite good but...

I choked when there were almonds in the cake. I hastily poured the tea and drank it again. but unfortunately my lips burned because of the heat.

"Shit!!" Unintentionally I cursed softly, I patted my chest and took out a small almond and chewed it to swallow again. because there's no way I can take out the food that's in my mouth, in front of Grandma Lecy.

I sighed softly, I almost died from choking on almonds.

I looked at Grandma Lecy who just laughed and shook her head in surprise. sHe also ate the chocolate cake in front of her with her mouth chewing slowly.

"You see? I'm fine when I eat this chocolate cake, you know why? Because I know that there are nuts inside that chocolate hiding. So I already know when to eat it, so I won't be choking like you. you're different, you might say that death no one knows. But you forget, you forget where you are. You forget that in this mansion is a place you never know, you don't know where the traps will be. You're in pain and can even get you brutally killed. You forget that this Mansion is different from any other place you frequent".

The people in here have their own goals and intentions, you won't understand if I explain. I just want you to be careful and don't fall into the trap. Do you understand?" Asked Grandma Lecy, I who heard this Finally just nodded.

"And one more thing, never trust to anyone. Even if I offer you hot tea. It doesn't mean we are close, just look at how the Tea I gave you now burns your tongue and leaves a hot and blistering taste." Grandma Lecy words were quite scary. I can only silence hearing all the things he said.

Whatever she said was indeed quite reasonable and mysterious. ah.. my little brain can't even think that seriously.

"Thanks for reminding me, at least now I'll be more careful." I said slowly.

"You really have to be more careful since you came and set foot here. Wherever you hide, this place will always see you. Whatever you say, this place will hear it. You can't move or talk in secret. clearly seen and heard." sHe said, And this time her face turned more serious.

I don't know if what Granny Lecy said was a form of warning? or a form of threat? They both tasted the same.
