Chapter 11
I have been sitting here in the wide garden for several hours while watching the stars in the sky. I'm thinking so much today that I think my brain is going to explode, because I never thought that my life would be like this, when I was a child my only dream in life was to be with my family, even a simple life was fine with me. Since dad became addicted to gambling, our family gradually lost happiness. If he hadn't been addicted to gambling I wouldn't be in this situation now, I was too hasty in my decision. But if I don't have anyone to imitate because I don't have a choice, I would rather be the one to suffer than my sister.
I will never be able to forgive my dad because of this decision he made, I can't fully imagine that he will be able to pay us his debts. Who would be a fool to think of paying their daughter for his debts? He is so useless. I will never forgive him.
I stopped thinking when I heard some rustling from a distance. I couldn't see what it was because that part was dark because there was no light.
Out of curiosity, I slowly stood up and walked toward that place. As I continued to walk, my heart beat faster.
I was close to that place but I was suddenly stopped when someone grabbed one of my hands.
"It's getting dark, let's go inside." I slowly looked up.
Thorm...
I just nodded and he walked in first. I saw Florine and Tyron on the sofa as if they were talking about something important. Both Thorm and I went up to the room speechless.
If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Xenon and Mrs. Xenon are already in their rooms.
After Thorm and I entered the room, he immediately went to his cabinet to get things.
"Would you mind... If I sleep here?" He asked, "I mean here." He added and pointed to the floor.
"What do you want me to say? This is your house isn't it?"
He laughs. "We'll the answer is yes or no maám," he replied.
"Yes, of course, you have bought me so you have the right to control me." I smiled bitterly and looked at him after letting go of that word.
I didn't wait for him to respond. I immediately went to my things and pretended to be doing something.
"I'm just going to take a bath," he said. I just nodded. After he left the room, I decided to take a shower. I took a shower for a few minutes and immediately changed into the bathroom.
When I came out of the bathroom, I immediately saw Thorm lying on the floor. He was lying on a white bed on the floor and he was now wearing a white shirt. I slowly turned my eyes to his arm, the shape of the muscles in his arm is very big and beautiful. His hair was also falling because it was still a little wet. He's so hot.
Unexpectedly, our eyes meet. I immediately turned my eyes to somewhere.
"Are you comfortable sleeping on the floor?" I asked. I sat on the right side of the bed while drying my hair.
"Yes, I'm okay," he answered.
Later on, I decided to turn off the lampshade and lay down on the bed. I know even though I didn't see Thorm is still awake, I try to force myself to sleep but I can't.
"Rebeca are you still awake?" My body started to freeze because of Thorm's voice. I think he heard the sounds coming from the bed 'cause I was still moving.
"Yes, I can't sleep," I replied.
"I know you're upset because of what happened lately." I kept staring at the ceiling. I didn't expect to hear that question from him. I know that he noticed my frustration after I found out about the situation earlier.
I can't believe that I sold myself just like that and I can't take it anymore that I probably have a share with my future husband who wouldn't be surprised by the revelations that are happening, my life is like a telenovela right now. But what else can I do, I already sell my body to this man I should respect all he wants.
"You don't have to be sorry, you bought my whole being so don't be sorry to me," I replied.
I waited for him to answer but I didn't hear another word from him.
I kept staring at the ceiling, there were many questions I wanted to ask him but he seemed tired and needed to rest. In my reflection, I was also gradually overtaken by sleepiness.
*****
I woke up on my own when I heard the sound of water dripping on the floor, I immediately got up and rubbed my eyes. That sound is coming from the bathroom, someone is taking a bath. I decided to get up and fix my bed and less than a minute later I heard the bathroom door open, I slowly turned my head and I saw Thorm, he was not wearing any shirt only the white towel around his waist is the only thing he's wearing right now, he's busy drying his hair using a small white towel, I don't know why my eyes slowly turned down into his beautiful and shapely muscles in his stomach, his body is very attractive, even if any woman stares at him, they will not be able to take their eyes away because of his body.
"Oh, you're awaken." I stopped looking at him and simply turned my eyes in another direction so he wouldn't think I was watching him.
"Yeah, I just woke up," I replied simply.
"That's right, they're already calling mom downstairs, saying we're going to have breakfast."
"I'm just going to take a shower, I'll be next," I promised and he nodded, I immediately went to the bathroom because my knees felt weak because of his naked body. I spent a few minutes in the bathroom before I finished taking a shower. I immediately got dressed and energetically went downstairs, but the enthusiasm in my eyes gradually disappeared when I saw Thorm and Florine sitting next to each other in the dining room, I slowly went to the table and greeted Mrs. and Ms. Xenon before sitting next to Tyron who now frowned and looked like he doesn't want to be next to him because his eyebrows almost next to each other. I started eating without even looking at Florine and Thorm's behavior.
"I heard that ham is your favorite, taste this. I cooked it and you will like it." I couldn't stop looking when suddenly Florine spoke, I saw her pointing the fork at Thorm and she was about to stab Thorm. Out of nowhere Thorm and I suddenly met eyes, a few seconds passed before he finally ate the ham, he was no answer and I continued with my food, I didn't know what was happening to me now as if something happened in my chest, I suddenly felt annoyed and sad.
A-Am I jealous?
