Not long after, the old lady came back with a bowl of porridge in her hands.

When she saw that Melissa is already awake as well, she smiled and kindly said,

"Oh, it seems like you\'re also awake now. Wait a bit, I\'ll bring you a bowl of porridge as well."

Walking towards Vanessa, she placed the porridge on the table beside the bed.

"Eat this while it\'s still hot. This is good for your body, you\'ll recover immediately if you eat well."

The old lady said with a kind smile on her face.

She turned her head at Melissa on the other bed and said, "As for you, wait a bit, I\'ll go get yours now."

The old lady left the room for the second time and everything became quiet again.

The silence remained for a while before Melissa hesitantly opened her mouth.

"Uhm, Young Lady…"

"What?"

"Uhhh, who was that old lady just now?*

When she asked that, Melissa\'s eyes were going back and forth between Vanessa on a nearby bed and at the door where the old lady just left.

Vanessa seems to not have heard Melissa\'s question as she remained still and didn\'t answer.

"Uhmm-"

When she was about to ask again, Vanessa finally opened her mouth and plainly replied,

"I don\'t know."

"Ah- what?"

Melissa was not sure if she heard correctly so she turned to Vanessa with a confused look.

Sighing, Vanessa slowly picked up the porridge on the table and felt the heat still emanating from the newly made food.

"I said I don\'t know who that old lady is."

After saying that, with a spoon, she brought some porridge into her mouth and ate it.

At the same time, Vanessa\'s words finally synced into Melissa\'s head.

She immediately reacted, "Young Lady, no! Don\'t eat foods made by strangers, what if it was poisoned!"

Hearing her words, Vanessa\'s movements paused and she stared at Melissa with tired eyes.

Letting out another sigh, she said, "If that old lady really wants to poison us, she would have already done so when we were unconscious."

Shaking her head, Vanessa stopped paying attention to the dazed Melissa and continued eating her food.

After a while, the old lady came back with another bowl of porridge in her hands.

She gently placed it near Melissa and caringly said, "Here, eat this and get stronger, okay?"

Melissa turned her eyes at the old lady with confusion and some other emotions in her eyes.

Seeing that, the old lady looked at her concernedly and asked, "What\'s the matter, why aren\'t you eating? Don\'t you like the food?"

Melissa hurriedly shook her head.

In her heart, Melissa for some reason felt warm.

This is the first time she felt such genuine concern being shown towards her.

Now she feels bad for even thinking that the old lady might have put poison on the food earlier.

Picking up the spoon, Melissa ate some of the porridge and closed her eyes.

\'It\'s so warm…\'

Just like that, the two demon kids ate the food while the old lady watched them with a warm smile on her face.

The room was silent, but it was not awkward.

If anything else it feels more like… home.

After that, the old woman and the young demons got to know each other.

Vanessa and Melissa learned that the old woman was called Teresa.

Teresa is 78 years old, her husband died more than 50 years ago and after that she never loved anyone again.

Because of that, she doesn\'t have any children and grew old alone.

Teresa also told them how she met the two of them.

​ What happened was, when Teresa was on her way home from the church, she heard a loud sound come from a nearby alley.

When she took a look at it, she found the two there, lying on the ground, unconscious.

Seeing two young girls like that, Teresa\'s kind heart didn\'t allow her to just leave them like that.

And so, seeing that the two look like \'abandoned childs\', Teresa, with her old body, carried the two unconscious kids to her house.

When she got back home, Teresa tried looking for any identification but failed in the end.

Finally, she decided to just take care of them first and ask them when they wake up.

After hearing all of that, the two kids, even though they were demons who, felt the kindness in the heart of Teresa.

A few days passed and the young demons recovered in no time.

But since they don\'t know where they can go, the two haven\'t left Teresa\'s house yet.

And when Teresa ask them about their families, they made up a story that the kind old woman believed without hesitation.

Because of that, she let the two stay with her since she doesn\'t have a family anyway.

And so, as the days goes by, the closer the three got to each other.

It arrived to the point that, in their heart, they already considered each other as family.

…

"We were raised by that old lady, that\'s why towards humans. I care for them instead of being hostile like other demons."

Vanessa said with a reminiscent look in her eyes.

Sighing, she turned her eyes to Nathan,

"Let\'s continue the story later, Melissa is already here. Let\'s enjoy a relaxing tea time for a while."

Exactly at that moment, Melissa came in with a tray containing a tea set and all kinds of sweets and pastries.

After arranging everything on the table, Melissa bowed a little and left the garden.

Watching the fading back or Melissa, Vanessa emotionally said, "To some extent, I can even say that Melissa is a sister of mine."

"She was someone I grew up with under the care of Grandma Teresa. I know those days were treasured by not just me, but also her."

Nathan looked at her and sighed, "You childhood seems so chaotic and peaceful at the same time."

Just as they were talking, the ground suddenly started shaking.

"An earthquake?"
