Traveling to the Unseen Realm
55. Anastasia...?

After promising to help Maureen, Ranvier returned to his room. He laid his body down because he was so tired. Shortly thereafter, Ranvier fell asleep.

Ranvier woke up the next day with a fresher body. After finishing breakfast, Ranvier and Decker and Joshua leave home for college.

On the way Ranvier remembered that one of the books he had borrowed from the library was left behind.

" So how Vier, this is far from home, you know," said Joshua riled.

" I went back alone, Lo both continued to campus..," said Ranvier.

" She...?" ask Decker.

" Gapapa, just relax. Instead of the three of us being late, I'd better take the book and both of you go straight to campus. No need to wait for me." said Ranvier with a smile.

" Why don't you just go back to the book tomorrow...?" ask Decker.

" It's not good, I promised you a book today with Miss Cherry. He said that this book has a lot to look for. The length of the queue is on the waiting list..," said Ranvier.

" Oh that. Yes it is up to you,." said Joshua resigned.

" We were first, Vier." said Decker.

" Ok..," said Ranvier as he turned his body to walk towards the house.

While walking down the sidewalk, Ranvier saw a woman dressed in shabby clothes being chased by several men and women. The woman in shabby clothes looked panicked and frightened.

Ranvier tried to pull over as the shabby-clothed woman ran towards him. But unfortunately the woman in shabby clothes actually fell down right in front of Ranvier.

Feeling pity, Ranvier helped the woman stand up.

" Are you all right, Miss...?" asked Ranvier carefully.

" A... I'm doing fine. To. please find Al... Albert. Bi.. said to her, A... I'm at my Tante's house" said the shabbily-dressed woman stammering.

Ranvier frowned as he felt that the woman before him had a relationship with Albert, the son of the deceased Mauren.

" Who is this Miss and what is Miss's relationship with Albert...? " ask Ranvier.

The woman opened her mouth and was ready to answer Ranvier's question. But the loud voices of the people back there scared him. He just ran away from Ranvier.

" Anastasya wait !. Don't run you...!" said a roaring-looking man who flashed in front of Ranvier.

Ranvier rounded his eyes when he heard Anastasya's name. He was sure that the woman was Anastasya the bride-to-be whom Albert would marry.

" Anastasya is alive. So the church fire of that time." Ranvier's murmur was interrupted when a woman patted his arm.

" Whatever Anastasya said just now, just ignore it. The woman was g*la and she had just escaped from the Mental Hospital..," said the woman in thick conversation.

" Yes Madam. I also do not understand what he said because it sounded vague and disjointed..," said Ranvier trying to convince.

" good. Thank you young man.," said the thick-mouthed woman as she gently patted Ranvier's cheek.

After patting Ranvier's cheek, the woman with a thick lipstick appears to blink one eye and run towards Anastasya's blur.

Ranvier snorted in annoyance then rubbed his cheek that the thickly agitated woman had touched with the back of his hand. It seems Ranvier does not like to be touched by the flirtatious woman.

" Good morning Ranvier. Is there anything left behind?, it seems that you are in a hurry.

" Good morning Mrs Maureen. Madam was right, the library book I borrowed was left in the room. Though I promise to return the book today," said Ranvier as he rushed into the house.

" The young man. Whatever is on their minds. The book period that is their daily handle can be missed..," muttered Madam Maureen with a smile.

Shortly thereafter Ranvier returned while putting the book into the bag. At that time he again remembered the figure of Anastasya who he had met on the road.

" Mrs Maureen...!" call Ranvier.

" Yes, what's up ?. Do you also want to order a special menu for dinner like Joshua...? " ask Maureen as she steps closer to Ranvier.

" That's not the Madam. Mmm.., I just met a beautiful woman dressed in shabbiness. Her name was Anastasya.., "said Ranvier carefully but was able to make Madame Maureen surprised.

" Anastasya, many people use the name Ranvier. Two or three blocks from here there is also a woman named Anastasya. The name is indeed a market here.," said Mrs Maureen with a smile.

Although his lips smiled, but Ranvier knew that the woman in front of him was sad because he remembered his son and daughter-in-law.

" Mrs is right. I forgot a lot of Anastasya's names here. Moreover, Anastasya whom I met earlier was like a mad man. Her clothes were disheveled, her curly hair was also tangled, pale-skinned and there was a mole as big as a corn grain under her left eye." Ranvier said casually.

Ranvier's words this time made Madam Maureen's eyes widen. He raised his head to look at Ranvier.

" You saw him ?. How do you know his name is Anastasya...? " ask Maureen as she blocks Ranvier's arms.

" The flirtatious woman with thick, cream-haired hair said. There is a big man with a big face who is also chasing Anastasya earlier..," said Ranvier while frowning.

" Women with thick, cream-haired lips. That's Mrs Blair. He's Anastasya's Tante. Are you sure the woman you met was named Anastasya. Tell me what they did to Anastasya...!" maureen said impatiently.

" Patience Mistress. We better sit there first huh..," Ranvier took with him while bringing Madame Maureen to a chair on the porch of the house.

" Please tell me now Vier..," Madame Maureen's pinta almost cried.

Then Ranvier recounted what he saw and heard including Anastasya and Aunt Anastasya's words to him.

" Anastasya was admitted to the Mental Hospital...?" ask Mrs Maureen in disbelief.

" Yes, that said the thickly mingled woman Madam..," Ranvier said quickly.

" They're so evil. They must have done something to Anastasya to make the girl go*la and be treated at the Mental Hospital..," Maureen said, shedding tears.

" So is it now certain that the girl in shabby clothes is Anastasya, the woman who became his bride Albert...?" asked Ranvier carefully.

" Yes Vier. I'm sure it's him. Anastasya's family was arrogant. They didn't agree Anastasya married Albert because we weren't rich. Anastasya and Albert love each other. That's why I don't approve of their marriage either. I know what the ending will be if Albert continues to marry Anastasya..," said Mrs Maureen sadly.

" Classical problem but why should it end tragically Madam..," said Ranvier.

" I don't understand Vier either. I suspect there's something odd about Albert's death report. And I must be able to uncover the truth and imprison the people who have made Albert die." Maureen said.

Ranvier nodded his head in understanding. In his heart he intends to help Madame Maureen later.
