Time flew by.

Persephone seemed to have it all—a world that appeared perfect to everyone around her. However, beneath the

surface, her life was far from smooth sailing.

Persephone was independent-minded from a young age. Her parents would be frequently summoned to the school

due to her behavior since primary school.

Despite their high social status, Zuko and Lina had to comply with the teachers' instructions. Persephone had

received her share of lessons after returning home.

Quick to learn, she cleverly avoided involving her parents when teachers wanted to meet them. Her support system

extended beyond her biological parents to include Toph, Arya, Chris, and Lena. Occasionally, Cordelia, Zephyr,

Linda, and Nicholas would join the mix.

Persephone had even managed to enlist the presence of Daniel from Cumulus City with just a phone call.

As a teenager, Persephone's thoughts took a more peculiar turn. Bursting with curiosity and a rebellious spirit, she

defied her parents, especially her mother. The clashes between mother and daughter created chaos at home.

However, as she grew older, a transformation occurred.

She unexpectedly became quiet, shedding the mischievousness of her youth and the rebellious nature of her

teenage years. No longer entertaining peculiar thoughts, she embraced maturity and tranquility.

In her free time, she read, painted, and played the piano, exuding both courtesy and intimidation.

This transformation had been triggered by a profound loss at the age of 16—her best friend.

After completing her university studies, she would often find herself seated by the window, gazing into the distance

and reminiscing about the day she first met her best friend.

Back then.

Persephone was just a kindergartener, and her brother was merely a year old. The occasion was a visit to Cumulus

City with her father to see Maisie's twins. While the adults engaged in conversation and laughter inside the house,

she sneaked out, driven by boredom.

When she encountered Greta Wiley, a girl from Cumulus City, they instantly connected. Sharing the same age and

interests, they joyfully played in the courtyard and ran under the sun. Persephone discovered that Greta's mother

worked as a maid for the Kinglakes, struggling to settle her husband's gambling debts with money earned through

sweat and tears.

Unfortunately, Greta grew up in an abusive household, enduring her father's anger whenever he lost money,

leaving her with visible bruises.

During her brief stay in Cumulus City, Persephone spent every day with Greta, forming an unbreakable bond.

Reluctant to part ways, Zuko eventually brought her back to Centrolis.

From that point onward, Persephone had a constant companion in Greta, who proved to be loyal and caring.

The Hamertons welcomed her warmly, and Persephone never treated her as merely a maid. The two girls grew up

together, attending school side by side, sharing secrets, and remaining inseparable even during Persephone's

rebellious years.

However, the happiness abruptly ended when Persephone turned 16. Like a car breaking down, her life took an

unexpected turn—Greta went missing.

She vanished without a trace as if erased from existence. Despite exhaustive efforts by the Hamertons to find her,

investigations revealed she had been kidnapped and likely taken to the border.

Unfortunately, the search reached a dead end, leading them to reluctantly abandon it.

Persephone later discovered the painful truth—Greta's own parents were responsible for her abduction.

Burdened by another gambling debt, they intended to trade Greta to settle it. Greta's mother, weakened and

unable to protect her child, succumbed to her husband's wishes. Even the Hamertons couldn't intervene, as Greta's

biological parents insisted on taking her back.

Greta was taken away effortlessly, leaving Persephone devastated.

Despite the passage of many years, Persephone never gave up hope of finding her friend.

Lost in her thoughts one day, a knock on her door brought her back to reality.

The door opened to reveal a familiar face wearing a big, silly smile. "Sis!" Persephone glanced at him and smiled.
