"I have a relative that I can rely on. I only took Irene here because she was frail, and maybe it's because of the fresh air here, but she has indeed grown much healthier after staying here for over a year. I beg that you don't expose our whereabouts to others." The old woman compensated the church for looking after Irene, and she had stayed in the church to help them with their chores, and the nuns had great respect for her.

"Grandma, I want to pee," she looked up and said, before running off.
The old woman did not give it much thought and continued to talk to the nuns.
"Ever since Rose left, Irene's been depressed. I don't want her to remain here to experience that loss over and over again. Besides, she is old enough to go to school now, but I want to send her to a school and have her live a normal life like other children her age," the old woman said.
The nun agreed kindly, "Irene is an intelligent child. With the right education, she will accomplish great things in the future." "Thank you, sister. If she truly accomplishes anything in the future, I will make sure that she comes back to visit." "She will always be welcomed here, accomplished or not. This will forever be her home." Shortly after, Irene returned from the washroom and her grandmother told her to hug the nuns goodbye.
After that, they left.

Once the old woman and Irene reached the bottom, the driver immediately got out of the car.
The old man helped Irene into the car, and Irene suppressed her tears as she stared at the scenery before her. "Where are we going, Grandma?" "We will go find Madam first. Once we see her, she will arrange the rest!" the old woman said as the driver started the car. Soon, the hill faded into the distance.
Tears rolled down Irene's cheeks as she stared out the window. She had a feeling that she might not return ever again. She did not know who 'Madam was, and neither did she' care as long as her grandmother was there to take care of her, nothing else mattered. However, she was still reluctant to leave the church and part with her friends Though she was not close to everyone, she had spent the past year with them, and she did not know what awaited her once she left. sŵUsing the excuse to use the washroom, she found another nun and obtained Avery's contact number; that way, she could reach out to Rose through Avery in the future.
She was worried that Rose might not know that she had left the church, and if Rose returned to the church only to find out that Irene was gone, Rose would be devastated.
Irene wanted to remain best friends with Rose forever.
"Irene, don't cry." The old man's heart ached at the sight of the little girl crying. "You are not like other children and are destined to bear with things that you shouldn't have to." "I don't understand what you are saying, Grandma. That sounds so complicated." Irene snuffled and wiped her tears dry. "So what if I'm not like other kids? Rose is the sway as well, and I had a lot of fun playing with her." "Someone is trying to kill you. You have to be a good girl if you want to live. Rose isn't like you because no one's trying to kill her. My poor Irene... All I want is for you to grow up healthy." "Grandma, who wants to kill me?" Irene felt chills running down her spine.
