It was a large monastery, standing on the banks of the Hudson River, in a quiet and beautiful woodland park. According to Alyssa, many components of this medieval-style monastery seemed to come from distant France.

The building was rebuilt after a journey across the ocean and has a long history.

However, when Tia followed Alyssa here, she didn't feel as much vicissitudes of life as it should have had - it can be seen that this monastery is quite well maintained, and almost every corner can be seen

I saw many traces of exquisite and heart-warming life.

The floor tiles in the vestibule have been scrubbed spotlessly, a faint fragrance lingers in the quiet church, potted plants of different heights but all green are placed at regular intervals in the corridor, and in the garden behind there are fountains tinkling and a hundred flowers blooming.

More importantly, there are many people living here, and everyone is smiling all the time. No matter what time it is, no matter who they meet, they can release unlimited kindness to each other.

On the first day that Alyssa brought her here, Tia completely fell in love with it.

Unfortunately, it was only the first day.

"You heard me right? This place...is simply heaven."

That night, Tia, who had just had a sumptuous dinner with everyone in the cafeteria, was walking in the corridor of the atrium with Alyssa. From time to time, people who lived in the monastery passed by them.

Although we haven’t gotten to know them all yet, we always get warm smiles from each other.

"Um."

Although Tia has always been introverted, she has never had a few complete conversations with anyone until now. At this time, she has adapted to exchanging smiles with the residents here. On one side, she smiled slightly with a young man in front of her.

While nodding in greeting, he gently responded to Alyssa beside him who had just spoken.

"I heard that a group of friends who are in a similar situation to us will come from the north the day after tomorrow. At that time, the courtyard will hold a very lively party for those of us who have just joined the 'big family' - if there can be people at the party

A nice roasted turkey will be great!"

Alyssa beside her didn't seem to care too much about what Tia was thinking. She was just talking casually, painting an unusually warm and beautiful picture word by word. But Tia listened.

As he looked at it, he couldn't help but start to secretly imagine following her words.

Yes, even today’s ordinary daily life experience is already so wonderful, so how exciting and unforgettable will that “even more dreamy party” that Alyssa calls?

"Oh, we're here." Suddenly, Alyssa next to her reached out to hold Tia, who was still walking forward, and then pointed to the stairs beside her, "Do you remember? What Ms. Marin said just now, from here

Up there is the guest room... let’s go up!”

It was getting late, and the red clouds in the distant sky had dimmed a lot. But at some point, the hanging basin in the corridor in the courtyard started to sway with flames, so that there was not much drowsiness in the field of vision.

Not long after, Alyssa, who had led Tia to the corridor on the second floor, pointed to a door on one side and said to Tia:

"This is the room - I have been living here for the past few days. Besides me, there is a roommate who is a few years older than you. She is also a friendly and kind girl. You can relax and don't worry about anything. It's easy.

Get along."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to turn the doorknob and gently pushed the door open.

Speaking of which, Tia has actually noticed today that none of the doors in this monastery seem to be locked, and there are even no doors at all in some places. It seems to be silently telling everyone that everything here is wrong.

People are fortified, and every inch of space can be shared with everyone without any barriers.

"Oh, look! Your gifts have also been sent here... Let me help you sort them out! Next, I think we will definitely live here for a long time... Well, in fact

I have never thought about leaving again, the outside world... will never belong to us."

Speaking of this, Alyssa seemed to have thought of some not-so-happy things again, and her original warm smile faded slightly. But soon, she became happy again, and hugged her kindly and intimately.

Hug Tia's slightly thin shoulders.

"Come on! Honey, clean up quickly. We can't cause any trouble to Britt - she usually goes to hang out in the back garden after dinner, but it's time to come back."

"Oh, okay."

After hearing this, Tia immediately stopped thinking about which of the people she had just met in the cafeteria was the roommate named "Brit", and quickly started to work.

And not long after, just like Alyssa said, an older girl about eighteen years old also opened the door and walked in from the outside.

As soon as they met, the other party looked at Tia and showed a bright and warm smile - Tia quickly remembered that although she was a little far away from the other party at the dinner table, the other party's smile was still there.

Everyone loves to laugh, and here she is still attracting attention. She is a big sister with a cheerful personality and an infectious smile.

To be honest, Tia originally thought that she would never be able to adapt to getting along with this type of person, but now it seems that is not the case.

"Miss Prince, I heard that there will be new roommates moving in today, so I have dried your bedding in advance. The sun is very bright today, and I think they must all be fragrant. I hope I can bring them to you.

Have a sweet dream!”

Britt said this kindly, enthusiastically, but politely, and always maintained a just right distance from Tia, so as not to bring unnecessary pressure to the other party.

"Thank you... thank you."

Tia still doesn't know how to talk to others, but it can be seen that at this moment she has the desire to express her inner feelings to others more actively.

At that time, she even felt that it might be a good choice to get along with others seriously.

After a while, when Britt and Alyssa returned to the room, they helped Tia tidy up and then washed up happily together, and the night finally fell.

Tia got into bed and huddled in the quilt that was indeed fluffy and warm, with a fragrant sunshine, listening to Alyssa on the lower bunk telling her and Britt across the way about a sailor, Wang Yang, as usual.

The story about the treasure on the isolated island made me fall asleep with a smile before I knew it.

Then when I woke up, the whole world was left with only coldness, dampness, fear and hesitation.
