[Please note: We're still in Hora's POV - when they were finally discussing the matter Hora came for…]
"No," I shook my head profusely, "that's impossible. How in the world could Sena be involved in all this? What do you mean disruption? I-It's impossible. Sena was just living normally and not—"
"We're still not a hundred percent sure. That's why I sent Silky there to observe for now. So in case something happens again, we can take appropriate actions."
"But you didn't sign her papers. And what do you mean by appropriate actions? Is that something that will harm Sena?"
"No! Not harm her. We will never! That's why we're not reporting it to Fatum Praeses or they WILL take action immediately. That's also why I didn't sign her papers. Right now, she's under a concealment magic—her identity at least. She will appear as Silky to those who know her, which means you and Sena, but she will appear as another person in front of other people. We just tweaked the papers a bit, with the least amount of breaking the rules."
"H-haahh…" I breathed deeply, trembling. "T-that's good if nothing is happening to Sena. But I still don't understand. Why do you think that it's her who caused the disruption? It could have been another person or I don't know. Just someone else, not her."
Aunt Vora held both of my trembling hands, trying to calm me down.
"Do you remember the time when you were both children, you visited here, saw my tarot cards, and begged me to read your fortunes?"

Furrowing my eyebrows, I thought hard and yes, we did do that in our childhood. But she said good things for our future. There was nothing… bad, right?
"Yes, I remember."
"Back then, since you were still both young, there was something about Senara's future that I didn't tell you both. And when I heard the news that it didn't happen, that's when I thought that it might be her that's causing the disruption."
"And… what is that future you didn't tell us?"
Badump! Badump! Badump!
Fear and worry crept into my heart once more. Who was I kidding? If she didn't tell us about it because we were children, then it must be something bad, right? Tsk.
"It's—haah… It's about her father," Aunt Vora confessed. "He wasn't supposed to… survive up to this year. H-He was supposed to… p-pass on last year."
"WHAT?!"
'Please, somebody tell me this is all a nightmare. Mr. Lee was supposed to die last year? Why in the world would he—'
Then, it suddenly hit me. "That" event where Sena didn't tell me while it was happening because she was so scared. "That" event that made her depressed for months. The event about those scammers that threatened her dad just to get their land!
A moment of deep silence passed by. Verrill and Aunt Hora kept on patting my back and rubbing my hands, trying to calm me down. But my mind was elsewhere.
If what Aunt Vora said was true… then, last year… Sena would have lost her dad. She would be devastated… She loved her dad so much. And not only that. Without Mr. Lee, her mom would have a really hard time managing the business. No—there wouldn't be any business to manage since Sena said they wanted to take all. Not just the land, they also forced Mr. Lee to invest in a losing business. If so, then Sena's family would suffer severely. I'm not even sure if they would be able to support themselves financially. We could offer help but Sena's not the type to just accept free help.

All in all… Sena and her family would be living a miserable life. And being in our country where the eldest child always ended up being the bread-winner of the family, Sena… would have to stop school and look for a job to support her family. If she still somehow managed to study and work at the same time, that would take a toll on her body. And she's not the healthiest person around.
"S-So basically… Sena was supposed to suffer," I mumbled through my thoughts, "severely. Losing her dad and dealing with the aftermath."
Aunt Vora sighed. "… Yes. But it didn't happen! And that's really great! But—"
"But she's disrupting the balance right now?" I scoffed, pissed off by the whole situation. Tears formed in the corner of my eyes once again.
"Hora…"
"So you mean, this… haaah… this 'fate' and 'destiny' or whatever it's called, it's supposed to give her a shitty life! In order not to disrupt this frigging world balance, she's supposed to suffer?! Hah! How amazing! What did Sena do to 'fate' for her to have such bad luck?"
Deep rage burned into my heart. I couldn't control it. I'm sooooo angry! And frustrated! Just because something deviated from the path of that motherfudger fate, ARGGGH!!!
"Hora, please calm down, my dear."
"NO! How can I calm down? It's as if the world is telling her to live a miserable life! Is Sena not allowed to be happy? W-Why is her fate supposed to be like that? She's so kind, understanding, lovable, and every nice thing!"
Alas, all the tears I'd been holding back fell like a continuous stream from my eyes.
"No no no no! She doesn't deserve that!"
Aunt Vora stood up and embraced me tight.
"Ssshh… it's okay, Hora. None of that is happening, okay? Please, calm down," she whispered kindly to my ears.
But my heart and mind was a mess. With a trembling body, I wailed all my heartache to my beloved aunt. I just couldn't accept it. Not Sena you darn fate and destiny! Don't you dare!
"My dear," Aunt Vora whispered to my ears again. "Do not mistake that we are against your friend, okay? The reason I'm telling you all this is because I know that you care a lot about her. And we do, too. So we're gonna do our best okay? But I'll need you to be strong and brave. And I need your help on this. Can I count on you?"
Nodding my head multiple times, I expressed my agreement.
"Tell me what I need to do. I'll do my best to carry it out."
"That's good."
"For Sena."
"For Senara."
