Chapter 440. I Beg For Your Forgiveness

Duncan’s POV

[Flashback]

‘Duncan, i told you to take care of your sister,’ Mom scolds gently after I tell her Apphia has run away after I refused to share my new toys with her. I would give her, but she destroys them, and when I scold her, she cries and runs into the forest. Mom scolds me… Even though she says she doesn’t have favorites and loves us equally, I know Apphia is her favorite. However, it’s alright because Apphia is a girl and needs Mommy more than I do. I’m a big boy. I just turned ten!

“I went looking for her, but I got hungry and came back. I’m sorry, Mom,” I tell her. She smiles- my mom is the most beautiful mommy ever, but I love her smile more. She holds my hand; her hand is very soft. We go in search of my sister. We find little Apphia soon; she is playing alone at the lake. Her skin seems to glow more than ever in the afternoon sun.

“Apphia,” Mom calls, but my baby sister doesn’t turn to look at us. However, the glow around her dims
