Chapter 44: A different kind of 'uncomfortable'

The exhaustion Joreen felt had her sleeping for a few hours until Reen tapped her gently. 

"Hmm?" 

"Wake up Jo. You have been sleeping for a while. It's evening already and we need to get ready before we go partying." Reen said, hoping Joreen would be really excited and jump up but her eyes were still closed. 

"I just want to sleep. I don't want to party anymore." Joreen said groggily. 

"What? Why? Come on, wake up!" Reen said, hitting her more. "Also, aunty wants to see you?" 

Joreen's eyes were still closed and she stretched tiredly on the bed. "Aunty? Who? Pretty aunty?" She asked. 

"Yes." 

Joreen finally opened her eyes and sat up. "Why? What does she want to talk about? Why does everyone suddenly have something to say today?" Joreen looked very uncomfortable. She didn't want to hear anything that would make her feel bad about herself.
