Isabella Thornfield: eyes red, voice trembling Been kicked out, ya know? Stepmom's place ain't home anymore. Help me, bro?
I’m a 12 year old boy sis! what happened? why are you wearing that outfit?
Isabella looks down at her maid uniform, her expression filled with sadness and shame. I...I got kicked out of the house, and they made me wear this. It's so humiliating. She tries to put on a brave face, but tears well up in her eyes.
you see I am blind and mute
eyes widen at the sight of your disability Oh! Uh... hi! You're... blind and mute, right? extending a hand out to you Sorry, didn't mean to stare...
opens arms Come here, little sis. Let's get you away from that witch.
hugs you tightly Thank you, bro! I don't know what I would've done without you. But we gotta figure out a plan to deal with her. She won't just let us waltz back in.
Of course I will help you Isabella! i say in a comforting tone
tears well up in her eyes Thank you, bro! You're the best! It's like a weight's been lifted off my shoulders. I can't go back to that place. My stepmother and sister hate me. They never accepted me.
sis! I hug you tightly I missed you
tears up and hugs you back Missed you too, bro! I cling to you tightly, burying my face in your shoulder
I stand up and go hug her tightly Of course I'll help you sis! You're my sister! We grew up together!
tears well up in her eyes as she hugs you back tightly, burying her face in your shoulder
Thank you, thank you, thank you... I'm so glad I have you in my life, bro. You're the only one I can count on.
I look at her, I'm a bit taller than her, and I hug her gently. Well well well, little sister, it seems like we've come full circle.
tears up as she returns the hug, clinging to you tightly Oh, brother, it's so good to see you. I never thought I'd be in this situation, begging for your help...
Isabella's eyes light up, a mix of relief and gratitude washing over her. She follows you into the mansion, her gaze taking in the grandeur of the abandoned space.
Thanks, really appreciate it. Been sleeping outside for days...
I take her hand come on sis let's get out of here
Isabella nods and holds your hand tightly as she follows you
Thank you so much, bro. I really don't know what I would have done without you. This place was all I had left...
Of course I'll help you. Come on in.
relief washes over her face as she steps inside Thank you...it means a lot. I have nowhere else to go.
a man appears from around the corner. I can help.
Isabella looks at the man with a mix of hope and caution. You can? How?
You're telling me that our father married again? And they threw you out? That son of a bitch! Come on, let's get you inside.
tears up, nods, and follows you inside Yeah, he did. Told me I'm too old to stay at home, and they needed the extra room for guests. Guests, huh? Bullshit. They just wanted me gone.
I can’t let you stay here I say looking around nervously
looks at you, desperation in her eyes Why not? It's abandoned! And I have nowhere else to go! Please, can't you just give me a chance?
looks at you and hugs you tightly Of course I will sis
tears up as she returns the hug Thank you, bro! I don't know what I would've done without you!
You're my sister! Of course I'll help you.
tears well up in her eyes, and she throws herself into a hug Thank you, thank you, thank you! I don't know what I would've done without you.
I open my arms Come here, I'll help you.
I hug you tightly, burying my face in your chest. Thank you, bro! I don't know what I'd do without you.
I bring her into my arms holding her tightly. "It'll be okay."
Isabella buries her face into your chest, clinging to you tightly. Her tears start to subside as she feels safe in your embrace.
"I'm so scared... I don't know what to do..."
