Chapter 26
Julia took Rebecca to her small apartment where she stayed alone and did a decent job in the popular
company.
Due to her parent’s home being so far from her working place. She started to stay in this rented
apartment.
There are two rooms with a living area and an attached bathroom which is too good for a single living
person.
After they entered the apartment. Julia gives Rebecca her clothes and lets her change the wet clothes first before adjusting themselves on the small couch.
“What a devil your stepfamily!!!” Julia started crushing them in anger after hearing the whole story from Rebecca. She never thought, after many years they become ruder and more evil like this.
She could never imagine how Rebecca stayed with them the whole of these years. But now as her friend, she will help her in every way.
“Rebecca! Now don’t go anywhere! Just stay here with me!” Julia announced which made Rebecca shocked and her expression wasn’t missed by Julia.
“I’m serious, Rebecca! You can stay here!” She held her hand.
Rebecca’s tears rolled down her cheeks. She is truly grateful for her words.
“Thank you, Julia! I don’t know how I’ll pay you!” Rebecca weeping becomes deep.
“Don’t be silly! There is nothing to pay! I know if you are at my place, you will do the same!” Julia warmly
smiles.
Rebecca nodded her head lightly to agree with her words.
“Now, let’s eat something! I’m so hungry!” Julia declared with a loud voice rubbing her stomach.
Rebecca’s lips curled up to see her action.
Julia cooked hot shrimp noodles for both of them while Rebecca tried to look at her su.soundings to be familiar with them.

Julia’s life is just like any normal girl’s. She comes from a happy family. She has many friends in her school and college. Now she’s working as an intern in one of the biggest private sector companies.
On the other side, Rebecca doesn’t have many things to share about. After her mom died, everything is just like a bad dream.
The next morning, Rebecca woke up late. By then Julia had already left for her job and put a small note
on the table for her which is just beside the bed.
Rebecca read it and then got up to do house chores. She did everything at a fast speed and then took a
shower.
She thought of cooking something for herself in the afternoon. As Julia is not going to come before night.
“Tring…Tring…!”
When she was preparing a meal, the doorbell ring sound came to her ears.
She comes out of the kitchen and opens the door. She saw an old woman in her sixty–plus age standing
with a bowl of fruits in her hand.
“Hello dear! Where is Julia?” The old lady’s voice is gentle and sweet.
“Hello mam, She went to the office early in the morning!” Rebecca warmly smiled.
“Ohh I think I came late!” The old lady responded.
“Can you tell me who you are? I never saw you before.” The old lady smiled.
“Mam, I’m Julia’s childhood friend!” Rebecca explained.
“Ohh I see!” This time the old lady’s smile became wide.
“I just live next door. This is some fruit which is sent by my village! I thought about sharing this with her!” She explains.
Rebecca looked at the fruits and smiled.
“Now you are here, then both friends share and eat together!” She put the bowl in her hands.
“Thank you, mam! Rebecca thanked her.
“Dear, just call me aunt from now on!” She looked at Rebecca with motherly love.

“Alright!” Rebecca nodded with a generous smile.
She put the bowl on the table and thought of eating oranges for lunch. And for dinner, she will make something delicious for her friend as gratitude.
She peels one of the oranges and starts eating but suddenly her stomach feels unwell and she runs towards the bathroom closing her mouth with one hand.
After vomiting, she came out and washed her face.
The whole day she feels not so well. It’s like she doesn’t have the energy to do anything.
She went to the room and thought about sleeping.
She doesn’t know how much time passed but when she heard Julia’s voice she opened her eyes and found out it was already night.
She has never slept like this before but in a few days. She started to feel weak, which is not great news.
Julia advises her to go to the hospital for a health check–up, to which Rebecca agreed and told her friend that she will go two days later because the next morning there is going to be a result announced for her
final exam.
“Are you sure? You want to go alone! I mean there would be your step–sister and as I remember, she is not a good call!” Julia looked at Rebecca with a serious face.
Julia is worried about her which she knows very well but she can’t hide every time like this. Now she’s ready to face her stepfamily.
“Julia, don’t worry I can handle her! There is nothing more between us as a family so, now I’m not going to listen to her rude words!” Rebecca smiled, which was just as bright as before.
Julia felt a little astonished to see her change too fast. but she was happy and proud to see her like this confident.
“That’s great! I hope you can deal with that bitch! If you can’t just call me!” Julia gives her a phone which she had extra with her.
“Thank you!” Rebecca took the phone and went to the door.
Julia thought it was a good thing for Rebecca that she was now ready to fight for her. On the other side, For this freedom, Rebecca collected her courage for a long time.
Now she doesn’t have anything to do with her stepfamily. That night when she walked out of the home, she already knew that. It’s just she’s adjusting her emotions these days.
