Stranger in my room

For the next few days, avoiding Axel became a full-time job.If he was in the kitchen, I stayed upstairs. If he sat in the living room to watch TV, I never left my room. At night, it was even worse. I found myself tiptoeing down the hallway like a burglar in my own house, holding my breath every time a floorboard creaked, just to get a glass of water from the kitchen or take a quick walk outside to breathe.By Thursday night, I was exhausted.It was past midnight when I finally snuck back inside from a quick walk in the backyard.

It was empty, save for Aaron, who was in the corner near the weight racks in his grey tank shirt and black shorts, balancing on his injured foot on a mat.I walked over as quietly as I could. "I knew I’d find you here."Aaron glanced up from his mat, a sheepish grin breaking across his face. "Look who it is.
