The atmosphere was just good but when Linda and Ami looked at the two taken photos, they realised how far things had changed. the smiles soon started to fade slowly but surely, and the reason was quite simple; of all the students at Ox university, Roline was the only person who never looked down at Tinah because she understood her simplicity."I say whatever I feel, love me or hate me!"
those were the only words the Tinah of those times used to say when other students laughed upon how she idolised Roline but she never gave up because Roline herself never ignored her. she always greeted her and sometimes talked her out of the "heires" nickname that she had given her but now, things had changed to the extent where Roline referred to her as "sister" and she called her Roline without any fear or hesitation. Christina thought through all this at that very moment before a smile made its way on face. "may I have a look at the photos?" the ChristinTinah combination asked the now quiet friends.
"yeah, here... look how you gave off the older sisters" look while Roline gave a off that feeling of a spoilt little girl in front of elders.. haha! Ami said as she tried to hide the fact that they had truly looked down at Christina back then and awhile back but now, Roline had given them a hint that Christina was part of her, so they had to mend their broken wings if they wanted to fly higher within the Han house hold and in Roline"s life, too. the practical speech and Ami"s way to freeze the situation that had gone stale soon ended with the maids taking Linda and Ami to their prepared rooms, as Roline run up the stairs with Christina going after her because Roline complained about the soldier look on Christina"s face in the photo.
things were to remain as they were planned if only Ami didn"t complain about the room she was given to sleep into. it was nearing midnight when Roline received a text from Ami who was just few rooms to her right. given the hugeness of the house, Ami was unable to fall asleep so she sent a message to Roline, [ am sorry Roline but I can"t fall asleep, there"s an empty room near Linda"s. do you mind transferring me into that one? am in the last room on your room"s right]
Roline:[are you in the last, last room?]
Ami:[yeah] Ami answered but even Roline knew how scary it was because the room was next to a long hallway heading to the balcony on the second floor, and if by accident someone walks through it when you have slept there, you would feel like one in a horror movie, acting a chilling scene with ghosts coming for you in dark corridor.
Roline thought this scene out and she felt her hair stand straight. she run towards the mentioned room in a hurry and she knocked, "open door, am here." Ami opened the door with caution written allover her face but she relaxed when she saw Roline. Roline had called one of the maids to get another room ready for Ami and the maid came back with "am done, you can now move to the room next to young miss". and she left after Roline nodded to her that she understood but she later froze, she called the little maid with a voice lauder than the one she had used few seconds back, " how long have you been here?!" Roline asked with annoynce evident on her face, the maid looked confused but she still didn"t say a thing but the later continued to ask even more confusing questions.
"have you touched anything? did you change anything?" but the maid didn"t answer which some what angered Roline at that particular moment. "don"t play dumb with me, if you touched or changed anything, pack your things and go!, make sure I never see you ever again! leave!
and leave right now!
