Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 7
On hearing that Clara was not her mother, my blood dried up
I did not wait for anyone to tell me to calm down
The calmness came naturally
So many things were running in my mind
I tried to walk to the bed, but my strength failed me
“Clara is not your mother? How?”
“Yes. She is not my mother. That was why I wanted you to promise me…”
“Who are you then?” I interrupted
She had so many things to tell me, but maybe it was not yet time
I made my way to the bed
I stared at her and could see the guilt on her face
She wanted to tell me more, but she was too afraid to continue
“I’m taking a risk to tell you this. I hope you’ll forgive me!”
“Forgive you on what?”
“Brother, do I mean anything to you?”
On hearing that question, I knew there were more to hear.
So I pretended to be undisturbed. I managed to respond to her question
“Yes. You mean a lot to me. What is it you have to tell me, Nora?”
She looked back and then moved to the bed and sat by my side
She held my hands and whispered another bombshell to my ears: “Clara has a mission here, and whatever her mission is, we must work together to stop it”
That was another missile fired at me by that young girl
Clara’s mission was no longer interested to me
My mission was to find out who Nora was
‘If I must unravel Clara’s mission, then I must unravel Nora’s mission first’, I thought
“Forget about her mission for now. Who are you and what is your relationship with Clara?”
“This is not a better place to do this. My mother could be listening to us. You know how she behaves”, she said
