After leaving Charles in his car, Elena went inside the clinic. She was on the verge of crying. There was a heaviness in her heart.
She was upset knowing that there were lots of things she didn’t know yet about the people she truly cared for. She didn’t know what to believe anymore.
She just wanted to know the truth. She was always kept in the dark, clueless about what was happening to the people who became important to her.
She was living far away from her parents. Charles, Elle, Dr. Clara, and Phantom were the people whom she considered as her second family here.
Two years ago, she was hurt and became sad when Charles and Elle suddenly disappeared. She had no news about their whereabouts. She was wondering if they were living a good life.
Charles came back and she was so happy to see him once again. She learned from him that her sis Elle died two years ago but he didn’t tell her all the details. She was heartbroken when she learned that two years after.
Then not long ago, she realized her true feelings toward Charles. She mustered up her courage to confess to him. But everything didn’t end up very well.
He didn’t accept nor reject her feelings. Instead of answering her directly, the most depressing part was he told her that he was a bad guy and he killed someone.
She was quite shocked. She didn’t know if he told her that to scare her or it’s another way of sending her away because he couldn’t reciprocate her love for him.
If it’s the truth then she became confused. She didn’t know how to react because she never imagined that the Charles she knew was capable of doing that crime.
Now, her mind was in shambles. She had complicated feelings she couldn’t figure out. She loved him but she didn’t know if she could accept the fact that he had killed someone. But for what reason? He didn’t even exert effort to explain or defend himself.
Elena was lost in her thoughts when she bumped into Elle. She just finished talking with James.
“Elena?”
When she heard that familiar voice, Elena snapped back from her wandering thoughts. She turned to that person only to see Elle already smiling at her.
“Sis Elle?”
After saying that, Elena pounced on her, embracing her tightly. It’s been a long time since the last time they saw each other.
She was glad to see her alive. She thought she would never see her again. The tears she was trying to hold a while ago just poured down from the corners of her eyes.
“Sis Elle, I m-missed you… so much!” Elena mumbled with her trembling voice.
Elle just giggled after seeing her crybaby sister, Elena. She was stroking her back, comforting her.
“Me too. I missed you. I’m so glad to know that you are about to fulfill your dream of becoming a doctor. I’m so happy and I’m so proud of you.”
“Sis, where have you been? What happened to you?” Elena asked her after breaking their hug.
“Come, let’s sit down first, then I will tell you.” Elle pulled her going to the vacant bench inside the clinic. Then the two of them sat down.
“Elena, I’m sorry if I didn’t tell you about my real identity and my true relationship with Charles and Sir Tom. I knew that you already learned some secrets about Charles. We kept a lot of things from you because we didn’t want you to be involved with our dark sides.” Elle explained to her.
“I hope you can forgive us. Charles and I truly care about you. We want you to be happy and live simply, away from our dangerous world. We are not good but we are not also evil. We committed crimes but it was part of our dark past.”
“Elena, I am Catseye, the infamous assassin. And Charles is my partner. I know I couldn’t justify our action by telling you that we only killed bad people and we killed for a reason. We are still sinners but we are trying our best to have a new life and have a fresh start.”
Elena was just silent, listening to her as she tried to absorb every information Elle was telling her right now.
“Please, don’t judge Charles. He’s a person with a good heart. I hope his past won’t be the cause for you to stop loving him. But I can understand if you can’t fully accept him.”
“You know??” Elena couldn’t help but ask her.
Elle nodded at her with a smile. “Yes, he told me everything. Just give him time as well as yourself. He is also trying to figure out his feelings for you.”
“But I can tell you one thing Just like me, Charles was afraid, afraid that you would hate him because of his past. That’s how I felt before when Erick didn’t know about my real identity. But I am thankful and so lucky that despite that Erick still loves me.”
“But don’t get the wrong idea dear. I’m not telling you to follow Erick and do the same thing. You and Erick are different. You will find the answer here.” Elle pointed her chest where her heart was beating.
Elena wiped her tears using her bare hands and nodded at her. “I understand, sis Elle. Thank you for telling me this for entrusting to me your secrets.”
Elle patted Elena’s head. “You’re my little sister. I should have told you sooner. Forgive me.”
After listening to Elle, the heavy feelings that were weighing her heart a while ago had been lifted.
Elle also told her what happened to her two years ago the reason why everyone thought she died. She also told her about her real identity as Ma Belle Elleise Falcon.
She told her the tragedy that happened to her family 18 years ago. That was the reason she became an assassin. They spent half-day talking about her past.
Elena listened to her attentively. At the end of their conversation, Elle also informed her about her pregnancy. She couldn’t help but share with her the joy of becoming a mother.
Elena congratulated her. She volunteered to be her personal nurse to take care of her and her baby.
