Rose remembered her sister as a very obedient and quiet little girl. She never let people worry about her, and her voice would always come out gently.
That was why she was truly fond of obedient children. Star was one of them.
Thinking of her precious sister made Rose’s heart ache.
After all, it triggered a very painful memory inside her. Her sister died horribly in her arms and she wasn’t able to do anything. It was a dark past that she would never be able to heal from.
“Rose, are you okay? What’s wrong?” Gabrielle called out to Rose several times, but she didn’t respond. It was worrisome.
“Oh, sorry… I was just thinking of something. I’m okay. You don’t have to worry about everything. I’ll take care of Star, so go and enjoy the festival with your family.” Rose assured.
“Okay, Rose. I trust that you will. It’s reassuring to have you take care of Star. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to call Sophie.” Gabrielle smiled.
“Star is quite an adorable child. It’s better than facing a wooden face. If you didn’t come back, I would have to deal with that sourpuss every day and ruin my appetite,” Rose replied, giggling.
When Star came along, Rose finally had someone to accompany her. Every time they played together, Rose would feel very happy. Without Star, she would have to see Dr. Maniac’s annoying face all the time. She was really going to explode.
Maniac could tell Rose was hinting at him. This woman’s mouth was so mean and he’d never miss all her harsh words directed at
