Chapter 31 – The Angel in Heaven Avenue (Sky‘s POV) 

Elenita raised her eyebrows when I entered the kitchen, not expecting me to come since she had just brought the coffee I requested from her. 

“Maybe just a little sugar?” I told her, pushing the cup of coffee to her. 

She scoffed at me, taking the cup and tasting the coffee. “How would I know what Angela added in that coffee?” She sighed as she rose to her feet, taking another cup to prepare my coffee. “When I taught her how to make your coffee, she did the same way I did. Maybe, you‘re looking for her, not the coffee, Sky.” “I‘m not sure about that,” I massaged my nape, feeling tired after a week of Dad‘s absence at work. I was hoping he would ask me about her and why there was no need to sign the divorce papers, but he didn‘t. When I told her she ran away from me, he only guffawed as if he found humor in what I had said. 

“Elenita?” An adorable face of my sister peeked into the kitchen. She was already in her pajamas but seemed not ready to sleep. She walked in my direction and raised her arms when she saw me. I carried her and had her sit on the kitchen island. 

“Why are you still awake?” Elenita asked, sighing. “Don’t tell me you also hope Angela would do something for you.” She twitched her lips, only now that I noticed she was holding a white feather and her small bag of colors. My forehead creased, trying to remember where I saw the feather she was twisting in her fingers. 

“Uh–huh! She did not return my red color pen,” Her lips pouting as she told Elenita. 

She nodded. “We really need to report her to the police.” 

I bet Olivia and I had the same reaction, raising our eyebrows and looking at Elenita with a question on our faces as we thought about what else was missing in the house.

“Then, let‘s get it from her,” Olivia’s eyes sparkled with her bright idea. Elenita scoffed. “Easier said than done, dear,” she said, glancing at me. “Even your powerful brother can‘t find her.” I sneered at her while brewing my own coffee. “I’m not looking for her.” “Ah!” She
