Remember Back When

Nila sat quietly beside Her escort. Trying to blend in with her surroundings as she looked at the woman who’s last woman left her mind spinning with questions. She hoped this time Elysia might give her the chance to speak with this woman after this lesson unlike last time. But she knew it was a slim chance.

Todays lesson was memory. And Nila couldn’t help but feel a deep sense of sadness. Her memories were often flashbacks of her mother now long gone. And it made her sad to think about. Shifting uncomfortably like this woman would somehow see through her she tried her best to push her negativity away.

Nila wanted to scoff. She wished her memories where of those things and not the pain and sorrow she remembered more vividly. Like the smell of her mothers blood after a beating. Or the feeling of her heart breaking as her mother took her very last breath in front of her very eyes.
