Chapter 81 Friends At Last

• GENESIS
• Sleep was far from me, no matter how hard I tried to. I kept rolling from one side of the bed to the other, forcing myself to close my eyes but no matter how tightly I shut my eyes, sleep never came. So, I gave up and just decided to read a book. I still had some that I had not finished and since I was completely jobless at that point, I picked a book. Flipping to the page I stopped at my last read, I continued. The mansion was very quiet, just like it always was during the night and for some reason my thoughts went back to terrible nights I had. Flashes of a man with a knife walking into my room popped into my mind and I quickly shut the book. I stared at the door and got up from where I had sat. Turning towards it, I made sure the door was locked, then I went back to the bed. I picked up the book again and continued from where I stopped.
• The words seemed to be smaller and the sentences suddenly did not make sense to me. I had to read one paragraph twice because I was simply not understanding anymore. It was all Jordan’s fault. I shut the book and groaned loudly before lying down on my back. I was still so angry at him and myself. If he was back, I would no longer feel so unsafe or angry and I would not think of him the way I was, but because he decided to show me that he was nothing but a pretentious bastard, my mind could not rest. But it was still so painful, it hurt a lot because I had hoped for too much. I started flying before I even learnt how to walk and this was what I got, I crashed hard against a wall and it was more hurtful.
