An encounter

Aina pov: I love my new self, I mean my wolf. It has brought more advantages to my life. I could sneak out at the odd hour of the night to visit the river Aibe for swimming. I could spend hours swimming in the warm waters and hurriedly return home in wolf form. I have been awake for over an hour now, and I refused to leave my bed. I lay there thinking of what to do today. "Aina! Aina!!." My aunt called. I quickly climbed down from my bed and walked to the Parlor. I don't like aunt Ella seeing me in bed when it is already morning. "Guten Morgen(good morning)." I greeted my aunt who was busy setting the dishes on the table. " Hello my dear, how was your night?" She replied "Fine." I walked back to my room to get my toothbrush, I walked into the toilet to brush my teeth. I could smell the aroma coming out of our breakfast. Aunt Ella prepared Käsespätzle(pasta). I joined aunt Ella at the dining table. Silence prevailed for about five minutes while we ate until my aunt interrupted the silence and told me that she had been transferred to work at Asklepios Klinik. A private hospital is located on the far side of my city. This knowledge gave my soul a sense of liberation. She informed me that she would only be returning to her house on weekends. I now understand that I can go anywhere and do whatever I choose. " behave yourself, I know you are a good girl." She tapped my shoulder and took our plates to the kitchen. Before Aunt Ella told me about her new transfer, she worked at a hospital very close to our house. Sometimes, if she didn't have any chance of passing out of our house that night,she would call me on the phone to come and inform me to meet her in the hospital. She was so afraid of living me alone in the house. Now things have changed, I have now grown up, am 21, and will be clocking 22 in less than six months' time. My aunt knew that too. I have also just finished medical school and I am still waiting for The German Institute of Medical Documentation and Information (DIMDI) medical organization to license my certificate. "You will work with Gabriella Maxi." My aunt said, I felt like vomiting as my ear heard the world. My aunt just said this is Me, who was very happy a minute ago. Now my facial expression suddenly changed as I heard the information. As she broke the news to me, I wished she could have seen how I was feeling. I can do nothing except comply with her. After about fifteen minutes' drive, we arrived at Gabriella fast food restaurant. A two-storey building painted in ash color, gabby kitchen was written boldly on top of the building and fluorescent light was shown from it, igniting the environment. The air was thick with the scent of fried food and sweet syrup, and the sound of sizzling grills and chattering customers filled my ears. The walls were adorned with neon signs and colorful posters advertising the latest promotions and deals. Behind the counter, a team of workers clad in uniform aprons and hats scurried back and forth, assembling orders and calling out to each other in a frenzied chorus. The seating area was a maze of plastic tables and chairs, filled with families and teenagers hunched over their trays, eagerly devouring their meals. A row of soda fountains hummed in the corner, dispensing an endless stream of sugary beverages. Despite the frenetic energy of the restaurant, there was a sense of order in the chaos. The workers moved with practiced efficiency, their hands deftly wrapping burgers and pouring drinks with a well-rehearsed rhythm. As I stood amid the bustling restaurant, I couldn't help but marvel at the sheer volume of customers that flowed in and out every day. This was the epitome of fast food culture, a place where speed and convenience reign supreme, and where people could indulge in their favorite guilty pleasures with little more than a few dollars and a few minutes to spare. " Elliana." A chubby woman said, she hugged my aunt and they both laughed. I think this is what Gabriella's aunt was talking about. " This is my niece." Aunt Ella stood at my back and used her hand to push me forward to meet the chubby lady. "Hi, sweetheart. Call me Gabby." She declared while flashing a confident grin. I follow her as we went through the restaurant, and she shows me everything. " Excuse me dear," Gabby said, as she walked up to the second floor. I could hear her screaming at someone. I think it will be one of her workers like that. "I'm sorry dear, it's my son who is still asleep in bed ." She tried to explain. I looked up and saw a young man climbing down the stairs. His hair was blond like his mum's, his eyes were diamond shaped and it was surrounded by eyebrows that are almost joined together on both sides. " Jonas met Aina, she is part of our family now." Gabby tried to introduce me to her son. He doesn't even look at me. He just passed us both and walked downstairs. " I am sorry about that."Gabby apologized. " And where are you going, young man?" Gabby asked. Her son was about to walk out of the restaurant. " Jonas!!." Gabby screamed his name as the door shut in front of us. She quickly sat on one of the chairs in her restaurant, breathing heavily as she gasped for hair. ******* My aunt and I both walked back home. As we walked back home, she told me to behave morally inclined and to be of good behavior. She told me to shun any voice in me and follow my heart. How did she know that some voice sometimes spoke to me? I think they think aunt Ella knew about me and she was not telling me. The night fast approached, and I could hear aunt Ella snoring. Now is the best time for me to sneak out and pay the Elbe once again. I quickly transformed into my wolf form, running through the streets. As I ran I saw some dogs, backing at me. At the speed of light, I approached the river Elbe. As I put off my clothes. I saw a lady. That lady was naked. I could see blood dripping from her neck. "Ma, you are hurt," I said. I boldly walked toward the woman, but she just kept staring at me with her cold reddish eyes. Cold shivers across my back. I was afraid, but my wolf was not afraid. It just seems to be like the lady I just saw now. I tried to touch the lady on her face, but to my surprise, my hand touched the air instead of her face. I think I have just seen a ghost. I retreated in fear and walked to the back of the bank of the river to get my clothes. I bent down to pick up my clothes and as I looked up, I was very surprised that the same lady was in front of me. 'What do you want?" I asked in fear. "Vengeance! vengeance! Vengeance!!!." She said in an ominous voice. Staring at my eyes without blinking hers.
