Without waiting for her answer, the older female slid into the spot beside her. "Long ago, there was a young maiden, She lived with her mother, her father, and her younger brother, in a small village. She was a bright girl, with a smile that lit up the entire village and eyes

that sparkled like stars. People loved her, and everyone wished that their own daughter was just like her.

"However, fate dealt her a rough hand, making her love the one she wasn't supposed to. She suffered due to that love, but was willing to continue loving him despite the pain. She gave her all to him, hoping he'd understand and love her back "Sadly, his eyes didn't see her, but rather, they saw another. And so, she cried and cried, wishing her lover would change

"One day, when she had finally decided to move on and forget her love, he appeared in front of her and asked for a second chance." There was a pause in the story that Leonica found she had been paying attention to.

The warmth of her touch was a comfort to her, as well as a guiding light and the smile that stretched her lips was sincere.

"Thank you." She muttered, blinking back beads of tears.

Grace mirrored her smile and hesitantly pulled her in for a hug. Patting her bad, she said. "Anytime Dear, anytime."

He was pissed, angered and hurt all at the same time, a terrible mix of emotions that had given him an even more terrible idea. But it was too late to think of it that way by the time he was standing face to face with the visitor room of Oslo female prison. With his identity, getting inside the area was an easy feat. Now, as he stood, waiting for his guest, he couldn't help but question himself..
