Emilie's P.O.V.

I stared at the girl in front of me with wide eyes. Who was she? Why was she here?

She stood up and held out her hand.

"Hello! I am Cyra, and you?" She spoke in a really sweet and cute voice, which was heartwarming, although it also reminded me a bit of Leonora's voice. Her big brown eyes sparkled in the sun, making them seem golden.

"I'm Emilie. You've got a very pretty name. But.... why are you here? Do you live here?"

She smiled brightly and jumped down from the swing.

"Because of the swing! Mom said I shouldn't come here but we don't have a swing a home and so I come here because the lady that lives here said I could so I come here and have fun. But now the lady's gone and I don't know if I can but she didn't say anything when she left with the other lady so I still come here."

"Wait," I interrupted her, "the lady went away with another lady? Who are they? Where did they go?"

She thought for a moment before answering. "I don't know, but Theon knows. Theon's my brother! He's so nice and he always knows everything! Do you know the lady? I like the older lady, she's really nice to me! And she always gives me sweets when she sees me, and she tells me to grow up all pretty and nice which is what I want to do! I want to be as pretty as my mom! And as nice as Theon because he's the nicest person ever! And he's my big brother so I love him, even if sometimes he teases me and steals my dolls or something. But then he always gives them back to me, and he gives me a candy so that I can forgive him faster! The other lady, the young one, never gave me candy though. She isn't very nice. I don't like her," she made a disgusted face and I had to stop myself from chuckling, she was so adorable, "Theon says there was another girl before but I don't know because if she was here then I won't remember her because Theon said that she left when I was a baby. Do you know the lady that went away as well? And are they your friends?" She pointed behind me and I turned around to see Shania and Hiroki.

I smiled back at her. "Yes they're my friends. Cyra, do you think I could talk with your brother? He seems like such an awesome person, I'd really like to meet him."

This brought a huge smile on her face. "Of course! I'm sure Theon we'll be really happy to meet you! Follow me!" And she ran away, leaving us with no other choice but to follow her.

She went into her house and held the door open for us, chatting excitedly with a teenage boy. He seemed to be around 15 years old and he looked a lot like his sister. When he turned to us, I could see that he had the same eyes as her. I didn't have much time to examine his features before he pushed Cyra inside the house and walked to us.

"Hello, my name is Theon. Cyra told me that you wanted to talk to me?"

"Yes," I spoke before Shania could open her mouth, "we're curious about where the two women in the house over there went. They took my girlfriend with them."

Theon looked quite shocked at what I told him and then he paled, as if he had just realized something.

Hi there lovelies!💖

I hope you enjoyed this chapter! What do you think of Cyra and Theon? I personally think that Cyra is the cutest😍

What do you think Theon knows that made him react that way?

Facts about the names:
~ they both come from the Greek, even if Cyra could also be Persian
~ Theon means 'godly'
~ Cyra means 'sun', 'throne' or 'lord' but the important meaning here is 'sun'
~ Cyra's pronounced SEER-a
~ The 'e' in Theon is pronounced like a Spanish 'e' (kinda like the 'ea' in 'head' for example) and the 'th' is 'f'

Have a nice day/night/evening!💖
