36 A Confrontation

Sara Anderson gazed at Nora's back, curiosity evident in her eyes. If she believed in concepts like rebirth, she might have been convinced that Nora had undergone some sort of transformation. However, not subscribing to such beliefs, she could only ponder what had caused her sister's profound change.

Nora had always been someone who followed orders. From an early age, Sara had understood that all she had to do was cry and blame Nora for not listening to her, and her older sister would do everything for her. And if she did not, then their mother would make her do it, whether she wanted to or not. At times, she had even feared that her mother might do the same to her if she had a younger sister. However, she gradually came to realize that her mother wasn't just biased against Nora; she actually harbored hatred towards her. Whenever she troubled her older sister, Sara was rewarded for it.
