Chapter 30: Intrusion?
When Myra and her grandma came back from shopping, Myra's feet hurt. She had been made to try on different clothes, and by the time she was done, she couldn't even lift a finger. She had tried on countless clothes. In as much as she enjoyed accompanying bet grandma shopping, deep down, she was traumatized. But since her grandma did that to show just how much she loved her, Myra knew better than to complain. As soon as they disembarked from the car, she quickly bade her grandma goodbye with the excuse that she was going upstairs to freshen up. In reality, although she felt that she was sticky and sweaty, her main aim was to sleep for a bit. She was very tired. She believed that a good rest could make her feel better. Grandma looked a Myra's back as she seemed to be fleeing and smiled helplessly. She knew she had overdone it , but she didn't feel guilty. I mean, who wouldn't want to buy clothes for their granddaughter, especially such a cute granddaughter? Grandma believed that Myra would get used to it someday. She just had to take it a step at a time until Myra fully confirmed to her antics.

As soon as Myra arrived in her room, she immediately took off her clothes and rushed into the bathroom. Even though it was cold outside, she didn't mind it. She believed that only a cold shower would do the magic. With that thought in kind, she turned on the shower and let the cold water cascade down her body, caressing every inch of her skin. She felt so refreshed. The water was addictive and Myra didn't have plans to leave the bathroom anytime soon. She fully immersed herself and relished in the coolness of the water without thinking about anything. It was as if she was meditating. Hence, she didn't allow herself to think about anything distracting. Suddenly, she sneezed. Only then did she remember that she was allergic to cold. She didn't want to fall sick again , so she turned off the shower and wrapped a towel around herself before exiting the bathroom.

She changed into comfortable home clothes from the closet, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief. For some reason, she felt her injured arm hurt a little. She immediately took out her meds before swallowing them. She hated medicine, but she had to get better. After all, she had to participate in the research competition when schools opened. She also applied some moisturizer on her skin for the very first time after the product was bought. That's because she felt beat and worn out that her skin felt dry. Only after she had done what was expected did she breathe a sigh of relief. Now, she could nap peacefully. She was sure no one would disturb her. Her grandparents always made sure of that. With this thought in mind, she made her way to the bed. Suddenly, her eyes caught sight of something. Curious, she went ahead and picked it up to check. It was an earring. Just one earring. Myra looked at it and contemplated for a while, with her brows furrowed. Whose earring was it? Did it belong to one of the maids who helped her clean her room, or was there another foreign intrusion?
