It was the next day Anastia was still lost in her dream like state.
Her body laying there on bed.
After a while, the Pope enters the room and he opened the curtains of the window.
The sunlight entered the room and brightened it which caused her peaceful state of sleep to end.
She slowly sat on the bed.Her hair all messed up,She turned her head and faced him.
She was still sleepy.Maybe Pope founded it adorable.He handed a basket,
"It's dawn,time to work Anastsia good girl!."
Anastia responded real quick,Her words sharp as knife:
"Don't call me a good girl.You don't have the right to do so"
She snatched the basket from his hand and gave him a sode glare.Pope sighed and turned around to leave ,
As he was gone she stared at the basket.
Her mind was all lost in thoughts,She spoke:
"Good people always goes to hell.All the divine justice is myth.."
She shook her head and decided to focus on task on hand.She stretched her arms and went to washroom to fresh up.
Later, as the day unfolds.
Anastia restless day started,She gathered woods from the forest.Gave feed to rabbits goats etc.She did her duty with dignity and focus, The atmosphere was gloomy and dull,just like those in stories books.
Their house was nestled deep in the forest. No one else lived nearby.Despite all this she never questioned Pope.She lived like an obedient child.
Both were strangers in their own place .There was also a tree nearby their cabin.It had apples growing,All of them were red as wine and juicy.But she was restricted from eating them.
At times, She would often find Pope staring at the tree for hours or reading a book nearby it.She wasn't freaked out by his habits as she was used to it.
Finally at last, her work was finished.She sat on the corner of the cabin to rest, her breath was heavy.As eyes met the blue lively sky.
There were eagles flying there,Her eyes continue to stare at the depth of the sky.
Suddenly her mind replayed a vivid memory where she seemed questioning Pope,
She was only 4 at that time when she asked him at dinner,
"What is a town..?"
As she was young and curious ,It was normal for her as a child to raise such questions.Pope didn't reply and instantly said,
"An illusion of freedom led by slavery.
A dangerous place for souls.."
Her memories were most of time vivid.She had very few interactin with Pope,She didn't even know who he was.
Just she could say,
"A person maybe :)?"
