All Chapters of The rightful place: Awakening: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Next morning Mia woke up and saw again empty place next to her. She rushed to put the warm clothes on. She could hear the fire burning and warmth coming from it.While putting the thick jacket on her, she could see big snowflakes falling down trough the window.Coming to the hallway she could feel coldness hitting her and understood how warm that room was. But the smell of food led her to the next room, where Clara set up the gas cooker.Clara turned her head to Mia's direction and smiled. "Good Morning."Mia could see whole meal prepared on the side and looked at Clara in wonder. "Why?" They didn't need so much food.Clara smiled. "I will prepare in advance some food and freeze. We have many fruits and vegetables that are perishable and we can prepare them now for later. Next couple of days I plan to do that."Even tho they had a full pantry, she still had so many vegetables that will turn bad in a few days if she doesn't use it, or freeze

Clara saw him pulling a young girl and pushed her towards Clara. "This is a newcomer as well. She could help you. I am not able to take care of her."The girl was literally swung her way and fell down. Clara helped her up and saw her wincing a bit as she held her body. Her eyes narrowed as she saw bruises on the girls' body. "You hit her?"Her eyes icily turned towards Alex and he sighed. "I do not enter their apartments. I found out about her when they left. This idiot held her inside, but now since he won't be living with me, he realized he had not enough food, so he tried trading her. I gave him food for her and was thinking that you might need two more hands to help out."Her eyes turned to the young man and saw him greedily looking at her body and smirked. "If you continue staring, you might stay without your family jewels. I'm not like this child." Her voice was threatening low, but he confidently went forward."Take me as well in. I am good in bed

Clara was standing by the table and vacuuming vegetables into the special bags. Mia had basket next to her and before putting the bags inside, she wrote what is it inside and the dates.Tessa saw even Mina sitting with Ian and slowly putting seeds aside for later, while she chirped and laughed. She stood up and came in two steps to the table."Is there anything I could do?" She felt bad about leaving them alone and sleeping too long."Go to the other room and bring me one more box of vegetables. Mia will bring these down to freezer. You can help her with that after the other two baskets are full." She pointed at the two empty baskets and Tessa rushed to the other room to do as she has been told to do.Mia could hear her outside and opened the door. ''Come in. I will bring one more. Then we can go down together.''Tessa nodded and saw Clara vacuuming more and more bags with vegetables. The two kids were putting the cut vegetables into bags and she w

Clara opened it and freezing wind hit her body. With a shake, she inhaled and smelled clean air and winter."What is it? Its freezing cold, hurry up!" She yelled and her voice resounded in the quiet street."Do you have enough coal?" The snow stopped falling, but temperatures dropped quite a bit."I could always use more, but its impossible now. Look how deep the snow is." She pointed at the street that had few feet deep snow."Don't worry about it. We will bring you some coal in a bit, go down." He waved and closed the window and Clara did the same.She could see kids faces being excited so she chuckled. "Fine. Put the snow gear on and help me clean the entryway to our home. Later I'll let you all play a bit outside if possible."If they clean up enough snow they could go out and play from time to time. The snow was pearl white as there was no dust and dirt in the air.As they came down they saw few men with shovels making their way

Clara looked at the beautiful plants with a huge smile. It was still the middle of winter. Luckily snow fell just sporadically.She turned the heating on and had ovens, so the temperature in the fifth level was quite high. After watching many videos she changed a few things and made new planting racks. Tables filled with sprouting tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers and so on.The green vegetables they had already for a while and even five chickens that she successfully incubated under the warm light. Thinking about that these were actually from real farmers, that she found in the nearby delicacy store.But a few dozen were eaten as she could see they were empty inside. From two dozen of eggs only about dozen could be tried to cultivate. Luckily she really could get five tiny yellow chicks.She made a garden for them and let them nibble on green waste. Once a day children would clean their box and put together with other green waste.She put the waste int
