When Fate Decided to Play its Part

CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN:

Silver hair and Silver Eyes

--

Afternoon that day.

A door opened violently that it banged against the wall. The loud noise took the attention of the medical staffs on the floor and the near by patients. They all took a curious peek to see what’s going on. They didn’t dare to go near, and just watched as a woman, wearing a sophisticated dress, barged inside a familiar room. Even though they only saw her back, they can guess that she was pretty and gorgeous.

Her features were that from rich peoples, but what differentiate her from other rich people was her hair.

It was silvery. Like the moon’s hue and color. It shone like metal against the fluorescent light on the ceiling.

The woman entered the room, and no one knows what happened after that.

But all the witnesses left wondering; who was that patient inside that room? She was visited by people with high statuses in a matter of day.

They were curious, but none tried to ask because they might offend whoever is inside that room. Who knows what will happen next?

Becca was in the middle of peeling the apple for Althea when someone suddenly barged in in their room. The two inside ceremoniously stopped what they are doing and turned to the door. When Althea saw the familiar silver hair and silver eyes, the small smile on her face vanished and her tired but cheerful aura was suddenly replaced by cold air.

Becca and Althea were just talking about small things, it was solemn and peaceful. The air was light and easy, so when it went down, Becca noticed it.
