CHAPTER 56
After asking the council about the address of my family, I went off to head the place they tell me. It is a very good thing that they have their address, because if not, I will struggle looking for them in just half of a day. I should not stay long because I will goo back to my home as soon as possible.
But if I will took long, I will cancel all of my appointments and meetings and move it the next day. This is about my family and they matter the most. Yes, it has been so many years but my love for them never left me. Even if I don't feel them anymore, my heart still wants to be with them. I longed for them.

My sisters were here already because Faye called them to go down. I miss them. I automatically embraced them while crying. I cried because of joy that finally, I saw them again. And the other reason of my tears is the thought of my mother passing away.I did not expect it. She has died three years ago but the news did not even reach to me? Why is that? Does Simon know this? If he does, why did not he tell it to me?"How are you?" I asked my sister's and looked at them. They were silent and was like shy to look at me."We were fine, Astra. We should ask you that. How are you? Are you doing alright? Where do you even live?" Faye faced me. I sighed and shook my head. They see, I am fine. I am asking them because they live here with no parents.

"Hey, wake up."I opened my eyes when I felt a hand on my shoulders. It was Faye who is trying to wake me up from sleeping. I looked outside the window and automatically rise up upon seeing the dark skies lurking the place.How fast the time flies. It is already evening?"Sorry, what time is it already?" I asked Faye as I stood up and started to stretch my arms."Six in the evening."Oh, nice. Six is the right time for me to prepare the foods. But why did she wake me up, though? Does she need something?"You need something? Why did you wake me up?" I yawned and started to walk towards the door."I woke you up because duh?

Expecting is the thing we should avoid to keep our heart safe from pain. For us not to be disappointed, let us stop imagining things that will never happen.I subtly let out a small and light sigh before I looked up the stars. They were twinkling, and they look so happy the way they shines. Everyone of them were apart, that they have quite far distance. And that just means that we can shine alone. That we all do not have a companion to see the light and be the light. It will be our choice if we chooses to be the source of light to whom who only see darkness.I chewed my food and shook my head. Why am I thinking this? I mean, I am not even sad nor feeling lo
