Unlike those books Ella read, Esther was not Ella's half sister or step-sister. She was her biological sister. They grew up together and their memories were filled with nothing but good times of their childhood.
Since young, Esther was the one who would give her the better toy and keep the broken one for herself. At one point, things had changed a little but Ella never thought of it as a big deal. She always believed that the world could turn its back on her, Esther never would.
Even after living and dying once, Ella could not figure out where it all went wrong. Then, how could her stupid self have known about it in her previous life?
Seeing Ella standing in a daze, more tears rolled down Ruby's cheeks. Strands of her long red hair clung to her damp face.
