303.

I AM ROSSELLA EVERHART ROSSELLA I watched through the window on the second floor of the family villa, observing how my twin sister practiced over and over to take my place.

Abitter laugh curled on my lips, followed by the sharp taste of iron rising up my throat, tearing through me.

Ipressed the handkerchief to my mouth as a violent cough wracked my body.

It felt like all my organs were turning to mush, dying slowly and agonizingly.

It was my punishment.

I knew it.

I was the one who stole her life in the first place.

Ilooked at the delicate handkerchief, now stained with a grotesque splash of blood, my lifeless eyes darkened by the shadow of death.

I remembered those days.

Now more than ever.

And the weight of remorse crushed my soul.

My father had spent almost all his savings, obsessed with purchasing land for sale in that faraway duchy, claiming it was time to move up in the world.

When [arrived and saw his investment a swamp and an old forestI felt nothing but disappointment.

"Fool! The best decision I ever made was buying this land next to the Dukes territory! Rossella, you cant imagine, daughter, you cant imagine what I discovered! We will be rich, we will be nobles!" he shouted euphorically, laughing like amadman.
