Sally's POV"Why did you help him? Is this not what you want?" Grandma said, her voice was shaking.One of the many men came back with the big red first aid kit and put it right next to me."Leave." I opened the lid. I disinfected my hands before wearing rubber gloves. I correctly identified the bullet first and asked my grandmother to put her hand under the bullet, preventing it from moving further.Quickly put the yellow liquid on his skin and I continued to stab the scalpel into his flesh as I dug the bullet out of his chest. When the bullet was out, I sewed the wound I created and disinfected it. The bullet wound, too, I wiped the blood, stitched it, put a little more alcohol against the infection on top, and covered it with palm-sized gauze.I walked away to check my work, not bad. However, my expression was still serene, to answer my grandmother. "I just helped because you said he was your soul mate." Taking off my gloves, I threw them away before going straight to my room."Sa

Sally's POVThe neighborhood also looks as friendly as the people here. Not that I'm saying my town is scary and full of cold people, no. Only when you were born and raised there, everything you see becomes dull.My grandparents here are an important person. The houses here are also quite large, with two floors. I am not saying that I am a rich child, but both sides of my grandparents are well-off. I can see people coming in and out of their homes.I put the cloth bag back on my shoulder and walked in to see the couple smiling at their guests. But, shortly after, the smile widened when they found out I was standing at the entrance."Hey!" I smiled brightly before they pulled me into a hug. Both seemed surprised at the visit they even mentioned it."I'm surprised they let you come here without anyone following you." My grandmother mocked.I shrugged and giggled. "They are going to Paris and they need more servants. Plus, I can take care of myself.""I was once again surprised. I think

Sally's POVThat doesn't make any sense. My eyebrows raised in suspicion as my eyes glanced down at the red cup in their hands. Now, that makes sense, they're drunk.The girls followed where I was looking, holding their cups. They laugh. "Oh, no. We're not drunk. I promise." Nila said, raising one hand next to her head. And they both started laughing again. They are drunk."Okay, maybe, a little." She grinned like a Cheshire cat. "Come with us. We're having our little secret party in the woods. Plus, your grandparents are still talking to the town's Mayor, and it won't end until the next sunrise."I glanced at the crowd. I discovered my grandparents were still talking. I guess she's right, it's better to go than rot in boredom.“We will take good care of you, and I promise to take you home.” She smiled. I doubt my safety in her hands or anyone's for a real matter, except my grandparents, of course. But, what could go wrong? I'm drunk, I like the sound of it. I need to relax for once i

Sally's POVMy grandmother placed a steaming cup in front of me. I don't know what they did, but it tasted great and even smelled good. Unlike the dishes my grandparents made, they tasted so bitter that I wanted to vomit what I ate last night.Immediately, the pounding headache I felt a few minutes ago, now miraculously disappeared. "What are you guys doing here?""That's a secret we'll never tell." My grandmother winked.I pretended to be injured. “Even your niece doesn't speak?”"Oh, of course, I'll tell you because you're the only grandchild I have and we also need someone to continue this legacy of ours, you know."And so the woman continued to tell me each ingredient of the drink, and she called it "Savior""Why 'savior'?"She clicked her tongue. "Because a hangover is a pain, and it would save us all a lot if we didn't have the effect afterward."When the cup is empty, my head feels so much better, and clearer, I can think properly."So did you ask Nila, what was in the drink sh

Sally's POVI wasn't sure if I wanted to eat something or just buy some snacks at the nearby grocery store. And I decided on the second option, which would then lead to me having dinner with the rest of the family.Meanwhile, I bought a tuna sandwich, fries, a can of soda, and a bottle of water to fill my empty stomach. My next destination will be the gazebo.I was feeling a little excited on my way because I hadn't been there in a long time. And on the journey, I decided to turn on my phone.The moment the widget works, the ping sound of the notification rings non-stop. What surprised me was the number of missed calls I received from Athena and a few unknown numbers.The unknown numbers upset me to the core, it was so suspicious. The only people who can contact me at this number are my grandparents Donne, grandparents on my mother's side, and Athena.No one else has access to contact me through this number but only the people I mentioned.Athena won't give my phone number to anyone b
