Bab 174: Chapter 51

While being busy with preparations all day, the night already came. Heaven stared at herself in the mirror while Kate brushed her hair. She was exhausted, yet her mind was flooded with many thoughts and questions. Her heart felt heavy after what happened with Zarin. Did she do the right thing by telling him the truth? Was he alright now? 

He was impulsive, so she worried that he would get himself into trouble. But she could not go back to him now after saying goodbye. Both of them needed distance from each other. It was necessary. 

Still, rationalizing things did not take away the heavy feeling in her heart. Tonight she needed her mother. Only a mother's love could heal all wounds. 

She dressed for sleep, covered herself with a cloak and made her way to her parents' quarters. In the hall she came across her father. 

"Heaven, what brings you here?" He asked. 

"I thought of stealing mother from you tonight." Heaven smiled.
