ELOWEN

"Mrs Sylvarn," a firm hand shook me gently and I flickered my eyes open slowly, taking in the environment.

I was still in my chair but my head was laid over the table.

I must have fallen asleep at work.

I raised my hand to my face, cleaning my eyes as I sat up.

"Sandra?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Why are you here so early?" I asked as I glanced at the table clock in front of me.

"And why are you dressed like that?" She chuckled, pointing at the calendar on my table.

"Today's Saturday, ma'am." She explained, her hand hovering over today's date on the calendar.

Today was Saturday, a Saturday that was my birthday. I sighed, rubbing my temples in frustration.

I had completely forgotten, throwing myself into work for days straight, desperate to avoid making the final decision about Ryan.

"I came to get my glasses, I left them here yesterday." She added, her hand returning to her side. I stretched and shot up from my chair.

"Okay, see you Monday." I waved my hand dismissively, gat

    ELOWEN"Ryan..." I muttered into his clothes, tears threatening to roll down my cheeks. He pulled back, searching my eyes intently."How did you know about it?" I asked, my voice wavering. "Celeste told me." He whispered, pulling me back into a warm hug."I'm sorry, Gattina," he muttered, caressing my hair softly. I liked this, this contact, his warmth, his touch, his soft voice, everything...I never realised how much I had missed him."Why didn't you tell me?" He asked, his hair still entangled in my hair, stroking it softly."I... I didn't know how to," I managed, sighing. He pulled away, his hands firmly holding my shoulders as he leaned in slightly."You were mad...or I thought you were mad and I didn't know what to do or say to you..." I trailed, lowering my eyes to my hands.He raised his hand to my chin, lifting my head so my gaze met his. "Why would you think that?" He asked, tucking a loose hair behind my ear. "Well, that night, you walked off and hadn't said anything to m

    RYAN"Where is she?" I paused, my voice thick with a mix of anger and frustration. I had noticed her absent nights at home and I only took it as she was avoiding me or back to Owen as I suspected.But I was wrong, she was too scared to come home and I had done anything to help. I didn't even bother asking her how she had been doing.I was so stupid to have let my ego and pride get the most of me."I asked where is she?!" I repeated, my voice increasing, my hands rolling into fists by my sides. Celeste flinched, but stayed perfectly still in the exact position."Don't go yelling at me, Ryan," she fired back, folding her hands over my chest dramatically."Why didn't she tell me?" I asked, a wave of guilt washing over me."Oh, Ryan," she started, her face a mixture of sadness and something that looked like pity. "I don't know what happened between you too," she started, pushing herself off the doorway."She thinks you don't want to talk to her." She continued, shaking her head slowly. "

    RYAN"You... you'll go?" I stretched, the pain in my ribs causing a groan to escape from my lips as I lifted myself off the ground."Of course, what makes you think I'll throw an opportunity to go to Greece away?" I asked, dusting off my clothes and lowered to pick up the tickets on the floor."Plus it seems like it's something you really put your time into." I added, handing her the envelope. I searched her eyes intently, looking for any sign of hesitation.My instincts were telling me it's Celeste who talked her into this Nd I didn't want to be a decision she didn't make herself. Knowing Celeste, she was too persuasive for anyone to resist."I didn't, actually, I wasn't really the one who..." She stammered and I gasped quietly, my heart sinking in disappointment."Gattina?" I called out, exchanging glances between the envelope and her face. She raised her gaze to mine, her eyes searching mine."Here." I sighed, passing her the envelope. My eyes lingered on her face, I waited for a s

    ELOWEN"She hang up on me?" I asked, pulling the phone away from my ear, tapping my feet on the ground impatiently. Lilith is too self-centred to take out time to possibly stalk me. She didn't have the motive to do it, at least not physically. She didn't care enough about my life to do so."You're not rethinking it, are you?" Celeste asked from the doorway, peering into my room. I tucked my phone under my pillow, hesitating with my hands hovering over the tickets."I don't think I can do this Celeste." I whined, burying my head in my palms. "Here we go again," she started, crossing her hand over her chest."What's holding you back?" She asked, her voice softer this time. "What if he says no?" I muttered, fiddling with my fingers."Ryan would never say no to you." She stated firmly and my eyes snapped up to her, my eyes searching her face. "What makes you say that?" I asked, lowering my eyes to the tickets as I felt my cheeks burn with the warmth from her words."I just know it, he w

    LILITH"Hey Marcus," I flashed him a small, soft smile as I took the chair before, lowering myself into it."Well, you look much better, happier even." He teased, running a visual sweep over my face."What happened to the Lilith I used to know, what have you done with her?" He joked, chuckling as he squinted his hands in suspicion.I leaned in closer, my voice reducing to a conspiratorial level, "Between you and I, she's in the dumpster behind the McDonald's four blocks away from here." I chuckled, throwing him a playful punch on the arm."Of course, I'm Lilith." I assured him, raising the menu to block his face, pretending to look through it."Could you stop looking at me that way?" I chuckled, tucking a loose hair behind my ear. "I'm so sorry, it's really hard not to." She rubbed the back of his head nervously, his eyes darting to every corner in the room except me."Did you already order something?" I asked, shutting the menu and lowering it back to the table."Yes, I did," he beam

    ELOWEN"Jesus, Elowen!" I heard a familiar voice as the lights flickered on and I paused with the knife tightly gripped in my right hand."It's me, Celeste!" Celeste yelled, raising her hands in defeat and my muscles softened as I lowered the knife in my hand and carefully avoided the glass cup on the floor."What the hell?" She furrowed her eyebrows as she strode into the kitchen, her eyes fixed on the shattered glass on the floor."What has got you on tight on defense on a Friday evening?" She teased, leaning against the counter. I reached for another glass cup and emptied the rest of the liquid into it, lifting it to my mouth with my slightly trembling fingers as I tried to stabilise my heartbeart that was going crazy against my ribs."Is something wrong?" She added, searching my face."No, nothing is wrong, I'm just a bit tired that's all." I answered immediately, swallowing a huge gulp of water."You're back from work early today, which ic unlike you, from what I have sent so far
