Rian's POV
I was awake. I didn't knew what had happened to me. I tried to open my eyes they were very hard to open as if some kind of weight was put on it. Even after waking up from sleep I was still tired and I have no idea why I was feeling like this. I tried to sit up straights but as I was trying I felt a sharp pain in my head. I felt like someone was breaking my head. While I was trying to figure out what happened to me the door of my room suddenly opened and my sister walked in with a bowl. I had no energy to even ask her anything so I just lie down on my bed again. I guess she noticed that I was trying to get up as she hurried towards me and sat beside me while placing the bowl on the side lamp
Ling- omg! finally you woke up. You looked horrible just lying down
She said something but I can hear only half of it, maybe something like finally woke up, I wanted to ask her more but right now I wanted to eat something, I couldn't take it anymore cause I don't even know for how long I was sleeping. So I put all of my energy in telling her that but that also came out as whisper. I hate this so much cause the only reason of my this pathetic condition is a person who I barely know but not totally him it is also my fault that I trusted him and was over excited and hate being so weak like some sick patient who is lying on a deathbed.
Rian- Ling, Food
Even after this much of trying I was able to speak two freaking words. After I asked her for food it seemed that she already know that I would say that to her , she help me to sit up against the headboard and started to fed me something from the bowl. At first I was not able to taste anything but then after few bites I was able to smell it. She was talking to me about random things and also how I got sick, then after sometime she told me something which was unexpected for me.
Ling- oh btw I totally forgot about it. Your friend what's his name .. Leo, he came to visit you
After hearing that I almost chocked on my food cause first he told me that he was forced and then coming to meet me I was shocked or maybe confused
Rian- W-why he came?
Ling- he told that he wanted to talk to you but since you were unconscious he just visited you and left
I was not able to process anything but then this thought came in my mind that maybe he was again forced to visit me maybe his father got to know about what he did maybe and then again forced him to visit me. A soft and sad chuckle left my mouth by this thought. I was done eating but and didn't wanted to sleep to was just sitting there were no thoughts in my mind like it was empty. Ling left the room and then entered again after sometime ig she left to put the bowl back. When she came again she sat next to me and suddenly hold my hand.
Ling - Now tell me what's wrong what happened yesterday, I already gave you enough time to process
I was shocked, though I knew that she would immediately understand what is wrong with me cause she was the one who was with me my whole god damn life, she was their with me in my crises but I didn't wanted to tell this thing.
Rian- N-no nothing is wrong
Ling- Rian, you think I am fool
Rian- yes
Ling- shut up! You think, I won't notice anything. I know you from inside also. Its about that Leo right
Rian- h-how do you know
Ling- Means it is
Rian- no its not that
Ling- Come on spit up
Rian- I told you na its nothing
Ling- Then tell me why are you sick, why you have fever. I know that something happened so you stayed in water crying so you got fever and you didn't eat anything so you fainted
I was shocked at this moment. What she said was unexpectedly expected. Now I don't even any excuses to tell her cause all she said was so damn true. I gave up and started to tell her everything. Some tears also left my eyes while telling her. She was always patient and listen to carefully and even give me the best solution and I thing that's why I am still alive or I would have been already dead.
Ling- That brat! How he dare to come here after doing all this to my baby
Rian- Ling
Ling- ok ok I was just trying to chill down the atmosphere. Anyways, from analyzing what you said I think that there is something else also like misunderstands maybe.
Rian - so what do you want me to do go to him and beg him (angry)
Ling- chill, I didn't said anything like that. I think you should ignore him cause if he regrets it he will eventually explain.
Rian- hm ok I think. Anyways I am not going to papa's office now. I even have to go to school.
Ling- oh ya I totally forgot about it, when is it?
Rian- maybe next week
Next week
Leo's POV
It is already been a week since that incident and since I visited him. For the last whole week I am thinking about how to apologize to Rian. I have not visited him afterwards, I didn't even tried to contact him I feel like a Coward. I don't even have idea how I am going to meet him cause now I can't ask to come to visit after what I did, I didn't even have the courage to go to his home and so now I am sitting in my house praying to god to meet him. Sometimes I even don't get what I am doing, like right now I can hear voices in my mind continuously repeating a same word
"Coward"
"Coward"
"Coward"
I was in my own thoughts when someone shake me vigorously. So much that I was about to fall from my seat. When I looked behind it was Scorp. I was not in the mood to talk to anyone I wanted some alone time to maybe blame myself.
Scorp- Leo! Are you even listening to me
Leo- Are you gone mad why are you shaking me you can call me softly
Scorp- my dear brother I did it I called you softly for like ten times not, you were not listening is that my fault
Leo- Anyways what do you want
Scorp- nothing I was here to tell you that tomorrow we have to go to school , so be ready
Leo- ok
Scorp- Enjoy your time alone like a coward I am going
Next day
Rian's POV
It was the day when I will restart my old life, waking up, going to learn, coming, painting dinner and sleeping. First I thought that my daily life was so boring nothing to do and following same activities everyday but now that I had or my life had fun I don't want it anymore my old daily boing life is better. With that thought I was ready and went down to have breakfast. The breakfast was good with my family on dinning I was laughing. From few days I noticed that my father now is even more open to us and even joke around, I am so happy about it and also kind off maybe confused. I was going to my school walking down the road with the cold breeze hitting so hard. It was winter and ig it will start to snow after some days, I really like snow but I catch cold immediately so I don't play anymore which is sad. A cold breeze made me come back to reality and I also noticed that my nose was as cold as ice which for some reason made me smile, ik it would be red now. I was enjoying and going while being in my own world but then I suddenly bumped into someone and before realizing/processing what happened my ass was already kissing ground ngl but the road was even more cold. I was about to say sorry to one whom I bumped into, I got up but when I saw the face I was so shocked or even a bit angry it was Leo. I was about to leave but then he hold my hand and made me face him. I was not in the mood to talk to him and even my sis told to ignore him so I tried to free myself from his grip.
Leo- Rian , listen
I didn't listen to him. Actually I would have listened but the place and time was not right so I didn't wanted to even see him. I was finally smiling I didn't want him to ruin him by saying anything
Rian- Leave me, you are a coward I don't want to see you, I maybe childish and playful but I can also be angry and sad.
I was not ready to listen so instead I lashed out at him and I quickly left from their without listening to him. I quickly wanted to be in school so I can't see him.
At school
I came to school as fast as I could and I hope I won't see him here. I was in my own thoughts and walking , I was finding A seat for me to sit and I got one. Usually I would like to talk and make friends but today I sat on a empty seat and was minding my own business, then I saw a similar figure walking towards me it was Leo again but now I ignored him and to boil my blood even more he SAT NEXT TO ME why?
