Two Rivers Isle cheesy buldak

This was the worst idea ever - and Matteo was going along with it.

Ines gawked at her brother, brown eyes wide and mouth agape. Did she want to see the ocean? What if they had another home too? No! she began to say, her voice pitched, and she set her little jaw in a defiant clench. Iseul spoke before she could say anything more, but her words fell on deaf ears. Why would it be so hard to live here? They'd done it all their lives! If mama and papa could take care of four pups, then surely Iseul could take care of two.

I want to stay, Ines said. Mama and papa had given them the isle. They had left them here. By staying, she spoke on their authority. What did Matteo or Iseul's word have against that? Mama and papa would've taken us too, if they din't think you could proc - protest - agh, if they din't think you were good 'nuff.

To protect the Isle. To take care of them.

She didn't want to see the ocean if it meant she had to live there. And they had no other home but this.
