149 After hell broke- Part 7 (2/2)
”You know you don't have to do it,” Nicholas spoke standing next to her.
”I know,” she nodded her head, ”But I think I need a closure to all of this.”
When the door gates opened to the slave establishment, they stepped inside, ”I need to talk to the head guard about something. Why don't you go ahead? I will be close by,” Heidi began walking through the building, walking through the corridors where slaves were locked in each cell. She, who had been walking in the slave clothes before now walked in an expensive dress through the same corridors she did three weeks ago. After she came to the cell with a familiar face, her sister, Nora jumped on her feet to stand near the bars.
”Oh my God, sister! You are finally here!” Nora cried, tears already filling up her eyes at the thought that she was finally being rescued, ”I am so glad to finally be able to see you.”
”How have you been?” asked Heidi in concern.
”I-I don't know. This place, this place is not right. Please take me out of here soon. I wanted to talk to you sooner but the lord didn't let me. Nobody lets me here too,” she wailed.
”Don't worry, Nora. Life will get better soon,” she consoled Nora.
”Thank you! Thank you! I knew you would come here for me,” her sister wiped her tears out.
”I have meaning to come here,” Heidi stated. She looked at the state her sister was in, the tattered clothes she wore and the bruises that had begun to form on her forehead and her left arm. She never wished something like this to happen to her sister but after she found out from Nicholas that her sister had sent men to kill her and had instead killed a maid at the Meyers mansion, that was the last straw.
”Where are the guards? How long is it going to take for them to come to open the damn lock. People here are really stupid and brash. I mean they do anything here,” Nora's mood had already begun to brighten up at the lone of leaving the establishment.
”I am sorry, Nora,” Heidi apologized to get a puzzled look from her sister, ”I didn't come here to take you with me.”
”What...?” Nora whispered, ”What do you mean by that?! We are sisters, you are supposed to help me out of here!”
”If you truly thought of us as sisters this day would have never come. You dug your own grave, Nora,” Heidi took a step back when Nora tried to put her arm out in between the iron bars.
”Heidi, please!! Don't do this to me. Please don't leave me here! I will really die!” falling on the ground, her sister sobbed, ”No!”
”I hope you enjoy these walls until someone feels you're worth buying. Better you than I, right sister?” Heidi smiled repeating the words Nora had used on her, the smile holding sadness before she turned a deaf ear to the pleas of her sister and walked away from the cell and the establishment.
