“I need to check up on Jessy.” She suddenly said after a while, moving hurriedly out of the bed.
I moved with super human speed so I was at her side immediately because just as I expected the moment she got out of the bed she staggered and if it were not for my frame already holding her up she would have been coming in contact with the floor.
“I told you Freya, you have to rest more. You don’t feel well enough to be able to move around just yet. Jessy is alright, I promise. Just rest a little.” I coaxed gently.
Guiding her back onto the bed and tucking her in again, I placed a gentle kiss on the top of her forehead and when I pulled away to find tears streaming down her eyes, it broke my heart even more.
“What’s the problem Freya? Why are you crying?”
“It’s my fault. It’s my fault that this is happening with Jessy.”
“No, you can’t say that. You had nothing to do with this and there wasn’t much you could do to stop it anyway. You didn’t know this was going to happen.” I said.
“But I did! All the signs were there, I saw her come and go and do all of these things right before my very eyes and I didn’t say a word about it, I kept letting it go, I didn’t want to pay it any attention, and now look at it, I’m going to lose my only child just loo-”
“Hey, hey, Freya look at me.” I called out when she began to get a little hysterical, the sound of my voice seemed to calm her down because she stopped talking and looked straight at me.
I wiped the tears streaming down her face with my fingers and remained quiet for a few seconds hoping to give her a little time to relax before I spoke again.
“Now calm down and tell me everything. This is about Emilia right?” I asked and she nodded her head.
“Good. Now calm down and tell me everything. From the very beginning.” I said and Freya took a deep breath before she began talking.
“From the very first time that we both came to live here, I just knew that she would be trouble for me, but the moment I noticed something was really off with her was the first time that w–we, you know.” She said, her cheeks turning crimson.
I knew exactly what Freya was referring to and even the situation was not enough to stop the chuckle that came out of my lips. Which was a good thing because Freya smiled a little.
“Well after we did that and I was going to my room that morning, I saw her coming out of the kitchen and it was obvious that she had been outside in the garden, her clothes and fingers were stained and she was very hostile but that wasn’t just it. When she turned around to leave I saw something stick out of her pockets, I couldn’t figure out what it was at the time but now the picture is clearer. It was plants of some sorts.”
Freya paused and the faraway look in her eyes let me know that she was transported to that day again. There were more tears rolling down her face at this point and no matter how often I wiped at them, more just kept pouring down her face.
“After that day, it was one thing or another. It was your pictures next, I’m not sure what she was trying to achieve from that but I believe that she had been the one to plant it there. Then another time I found the garden gate open and when I went to lock it was to find her scrunchie outside of it.

Two weeks after the scrunchie had been in my cupboards, I found her in my room rummaging through my drawers until she found the hair band and when she did and I threatened to report her to you she threatened me back, told me to watch my back because I was the most vulnerable in this house. She threatened Jessy too and Goddess knows that after she left, I set out to come tell you about my findings but I got distracted. And then at the festival too. I saw her.”

“Wait, what? You saw Emilia at the Solace? Why didn’t you say anything? I would have dealt with her right away, if I had known that she were there.” I interrupted, feeling my blood boil even faster beneath my skin. Freya was already shaking her head at my words.
“That was the exact reason I didn’t tell you. Our night was just beginning and maybe I was being selfish but I knew that the moment I told you about her, Our night would come to an end and the entire experience would be over. Jessy was making new friends, we were having a good time, I didn’t want her to ruin it for us. I didn’t know it would result to this, I’m so sorry.” Freya said, bursting into another fresh bout of tears.
