Sometimes, crying is the only way your eyes speak when your mouth just can’t explain how broken your heart is. I closed my phone and lay on bed. I looked up before sighing.
Devie came out again earlier, it's a good thing Theo didn't come today because something bad might happen to him and I might have another problem. Fortunately, I hid all the locks in the house so that Devie could not get out. It's hard, it's good to be prepared.
I lay for a few seconds while just staring at where. Nothing enters my mind. I can’t think of things I should think about. I read a journal earlier— Article for responsibilities and obligations as a person for others.
Life is colorful when you have a problem to face and you have a solution to do. Acting to fill tasks and obligations that must be maintained. Responsibilities to follow and dreams to reach. Activities that give meaning to a person’s life, like a color in a book. Signs and lessons to be improved.
I closed my eyes tightly, as if those words were repeated in my hearing until my heart and mind reached. Does this mean, my life is meaningless? I have no problem in living as normal and ordinary as others are given a solution. For me, there is no solution to my problem. What is my problem? It's big, so big.
First, I have no obligation because I have nothing else to do. Just eat, sleep and wake up. Work? Yes, it's just right for my day-to-day expenses.
Second, I have no responsibility because I have no partner in life. I have no family or relatives, friends or close acquaintances. I don’t have to be responsible to others so I’m avoiding right? That's why everyone avoids me too.
Third, I have no dreams. Yes I will admit I dreamed before but it all disappeared like a bubble. Eased as if erased and vanished like ashes because my dreams were replaced by a dark world.
I sighed loudly. "My life in this world doesn't really have any meaning so what's my value? Why am I still alive? Tsk."
I shook my head nonchalantly before closed my eyes firmly. I calmed myself down when I felt eyes staring at me. I quickly opened my two eyes before immediately turning to the open door. It's Theo.
"Don't you know how to knock?" I asked him, but he just stared at me as if i was a puzzle that was very difficult to build. I approached him before pushing him out causing him to look shaky. I secretly noticed, he was really weird. I closed the door and quietly followed him down.
"What are you doing here again? I thought, you're going to stop me at last."
He chuckled before messing my hair. "You wish, it's not gonna happen." I hope so, it's like I'm a statue of what I thought.
"Is there any problem?" I swallowed before shaking. I feel like a tree that walks because I walk very straight. I haven't been able to move on from what I thought. Why was that the answer in my mind? Isn't the conversation I'll just let him go until he's bored but why does it seem like something has changed? Weird.
"Tsk.. Tsk.. I just disappeared for a while then you were now like that. I might think differently of that." He suddenly said.
"What is that again?" He frowned when I asked him but he just shrugged his shoulder.
"We're going somewhere." I was blown away by the juice I was drinking because of what he said.
"Where else are we going?"
"Well, it's a secret." I close my eyes tightly, I thought Janna and Devie were more annoying—But no! The man in front of me is even more annoying! His name is Theo Zenick Ares! A man answered no if it was not a secret.
"Okay, I'm not coming. It's just you, you know my condition, don't you?" I passed him but he immediately grabbed my arm so I stopped and faced him.
"You're coming."
"Are you crazy? What if something bad happens and I can hurt someone or worst kill. Can you stop me Isn't it? You said you knew something about mental condition —So, you should know I'm a dangerous person. "
"Yeah, I know but your wrong too. You're not dangerous because I know you won't lose—"
"You're wrong, I've been losing a long time Theo. I have accepted my condition for a long time." He was stunned by what I said, I saw the sadness pass in his eyes before blinking.
I glanced at my arm he was still holding, I slowly removed it before turning my back on him. He called me but I did not say a word and just kept walking until I reached the stairs.
When I closed the bedroom door, I immediately sat down in front of the study table. I took a rope with a ribbon to tie in my hair. I turned on the aircon before taking out the low grade glass only. I'll just read like I always do.
It was only a few minutes ago but I heard knocking from outside. I ignored that and continued reading. But that person was just naughty because it made the knocking even louder. Annoyed, I put down the book I was holding before glancing at the door. I think I knew who is it.
"Hope, open the door!" He hissed, looking disgusted as well. I put the mirror I was wearing back in the pouch.
"Please Hope, talk to me!" I shook my head before deciding to just open the door.
"What's your problem mister?" I asked in bored way.
He stared at my face for a while before looking down. "Come with me, promise. There's no one where we're going."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Well, I chose the place so I know no one is there."
"How can you be sure?"
"Tsk, just come with me." He was still struggling as his eyes pleaded.
"I'm not going out—"
"Hope, I won't leave you. I'll take care of you, don't worry I won't hurt you." I know, I blinked before secretly sighing! Why does my mind suddenly respond to him!? What's going on? And because of that I lost my attention he said.
"Hope! Hey, what are you going to do?" I looked at him before sighing.
"That's not the problem, it's me. I don't want to hurt any people Theo. I don't want to have a problem. There are things we don't expect." I bowed while saying that.
He was silent so I thought he was going to give up but I was wrong because he took my hands and lifted them. I looked up at him. "I trust you Hope, I know you can. Come with me please... Do I still have to beg you?"
I sighed. "Fine! Tsk, you really don't want to stop me ah!?"
He finally smiled then kissed my forehead. "Go, change your clothes. This one, I won't let you hide your face. I'll take care of you, when we're out."
I couldn't answer and just turned around, holding to my chest. The speed of it's pulse, as expected was not due to my personalities. This is because the man did nothing but to do whatever he want that I just let.
"What the.. I don't want to, I won't do it." But when did Theo follow me? I don't know, it's not really the case."Hurry up, don't wore it." I shook my head."You take care of that, I'm not going.""Damn, let's go." He said as if compelled. Stunned, I followed him, bending down as I followed him until we came to an abandoned place.He quietly removed the cover of a car, a motor. I was amazed because of its luster and I can see that he take care of it because you can't see any dirt or scratches.The color of the motor is black and neon which makes it even more beautiful and awesome —eye catcher too. "Hope, meet my bestfriend.. Neo.""Does he have a name?" I whispered while still looking at his motor in amazement. He smiled and nodded and imitated me to touch his motor."Hmm, you'll see. I take good care of my motor. I love Neo more than my life."
"Hey, cheer up!" I said softly to him.We were still walking here above the bridge. There were also people walking like us and happily bonding. Mostly lovers. It was nice when we were passing by now, there were many lanterns shining around.Candles of different colors as the flow of the river below makes our hearing more beautiful and calming. I looked at the one next to me, I don't know where we are going.I can't ask him because he is in deep thought. Secret, I gasped. He still seems to be thinking about what happened earlier."Where are we going Theo?" I said softly as I watched our path. Finally, I got his attention."Hmm?" I imitated him as well."What 'hmm?" His smile slipped on his lips so I didn't feel like it, he really wanted to like me when I was pissed."You're cute.""I'm not cute.""So adorable too, can you
"Where I am?" I asked myself as I looked around."You shameless woman! The strength of your loon to fool me!" That voice! Dad! I immediately felt the trembling of my body. The trembling of my chest grew stronger at the same time as dad came down with mom. Even if the faces were blurred they are but I know they are my parents."Ahh! Shan! Let go of me!" I wanted to run but my legs seemed to be statuesque. My body didn't want to follow my wishes. Stop! I don't want this! Why am I here! I sighed when I saw dad dragging mom down the stairs."M-Mom... Mom.." I felt weak, my fist clenched especially when dad suddenly left mom who was now lying on the floor due to falling down the stairs. Dad went to a room, when I was young—That's my room! My eyes widened, I can't! I don't want to! I don't want to be here anymore! I was caught in my ear when I heard the very cry of my younger self."You child! Come here! Hurry
I just stared at him as he continued to treat my wounds. He slowly cleaned it while staring at me as if just a little mistake would hurt me.I secretly swallowed, as if something had touched my heart with what he was doing. I feel warmth and care that made my heart beat so fast. I shook my head before removing his grip on my arm."You don't have to do that." I said softly as I glanced at my reddened and fresh wounds."Let me heal your wounds Hope." Gently but firmly he said but I just shook my head."Don't, you don't have to." I stood up on the bed but I also sat up immediately when he gently pulled my arm without injury.I looked at him badly. When he saw what I looked like he sat down next to me. He sighed. "Tsk, don't scold me. Okay? Just leave me alone and let me do this.""Okay!" I let him heal my wound, even though I could feel the electricity flowing through each w
We are now watching a movie here in the living room, after the scene we had earlier in the room he invited me to watch. We were silent as we sat here on the sofa.I don’t know if I’ll laugh at him or be embarrassed because of his reaction after I got out there was priceless. He couldn't look at me and then the tip of his ear was red on both sides.I just raised an eyebrow at him so as not to show my embarrassment. I asked him why he entered the room but he answered because he was worried. I asked him why but he just didn't answer before coming down and invited me here in the living room.I shook my head before glanced at him. I was blown away when I couldn't get any more popcorn in the glass bowl between us.I looked at the bowl but there was really nothing left. I secretly sniffed, I want more. But I don't know how to make popcorn. I just stared at the container before frowning for a long time.
When I opened my eyes, I feel the sunlight hitting my face. I immediately stood up and opened the balcony, the curtain that covered it. I yawned loudly before looking at the sky and the views outside.I can see here the big houses, and the parks. Birds chasing the sky and above all the breeze of nature. I immediately went to the bathroom and took a shower. I brushed first as usual before coming out of the robe. I opened the closet before choosing clothes to wear, I was secretly shaken by my clothes here.Concentrated dark color and concentrated shirt, jacket, jeans and leggings. I chose a black shirt and black jeans before putting on my underwear then looked in the mirror. As usual I just combed my hair a little before going down, I was stunned not to hear the noise I was used to hearing.I was out of breath, of course. Theo hasn't come back yet, how many days has he been gone? I was shaken before heading to th
I looked again at the telephone next to the table. To my recollection, Theo customized that in case there was an emergency here at home so he could be called. Right, I might use it.I slowly stood up and held the phone then sighed, the question is will anyone answer? This is automatic, the person you call will immediately know that the caller is from Quinn residence.Everyone knows the last name Quinn, I don’t know why but I know they know it. Not because they admire or look up to the last name Quinn—It's because they were mad at that surname. I don't know whay, It's not that I like to go out. It's also not my nature to bring things up.I don't care what they say, even me I don't want to think because I don't want to have any more problems. I was shaken before taking a deep breath. Simultaneously with the ringing of my stomach was also the ringing of the phone I was holding."Aww, I'm really hu
"What's your name?" I suddenly asked because we've been talking here but I still don't know his name.He stopped wearing his helmet and then looked at me with a smile. "Jordan ma'am." His forehead furrowed. I turned to him."Hope is my name, not ma'am." He laughed before shaking his head."I prefer ma'am, Hope." I shrugged before drinking the water."If you say so..""I'm leaving ma'am, later my bosses will be looking for me." I glanced at the wall clock, it's been an hour and we've been talking for more than a minute."Yes, I don't even know the time. I'll bring you to the gate." I said that he didn't refuse.As we walked, I couldn't help but laugh and rejoice at what he was telling me. Its all about his antics and his family. The fun he had while telling the story, I couldn't help but be jealous. I wish I was lik
