Several small clouds drifted through the sky. When one of them passed before the moon, the world's filter changed. First, my hands were silver and the ground was black. Then my hands were black and the ground silver. So we switched, as I walked, from negative to positive to negative, as the clouds passed before the moon.
I was all alone by myself and it was kinda peaceful to me, without any boundaries and chaos around me I feel free but only one thing was missing in my life Azelaic.
I knew, deep down from inside he was watching the same moon as I am. And
he was still missing me as much as I am missing him right now.
" Aisling, Wait for me!" I heard Emily's voice from behind which made me stop. I saw her running towards me.
" What happened?" I asked her. She stops to catch her breath.
" Where are you going? You shouldn't suppose be wandering around this time of the night," she said.
" I don't want to go back there I would rather want to stay in here than go back there where everyone is accusing me of something which I never did."
" Not, me I didn't accuse you of anything trust me. And Benny is just angry because he cares about Jasper... He couldn't see him like that. I apologize on their behalf of him. He doesn't mean what he said to you." she said. And I thought where did Jasper go? And what about the aunt?
" You shouldn't come here. They need you before aunt finds out about it."
" Don't worry about ma'am. Ray, Benny, and jagger have everything under control and please come back with me before ma'am found out that you are missing."
" What about Jasper? where is he? and what happened to him? have you asked him Why he attacked me."
" He doesn't want to talk about it and we didn't force him to tell us. He wanted to stay alone. And don't be afraid of him. He won't do that ever again."
I don't know whether I should go with her or not. I knew, deep down in my heart if I go back I would be in danger again but despite knowing it I choose to go with her because everywhere I go it's always dangerous for me. I am not safe anywhere.
I know, and this is not the right time for me to go back. I need to show some patience or else I need to forget about it everything, including meeting azelaic. I made up my mind about what I needed to do.
A week later
It's been a week since I saw, Caden and Cassy. I am extremely missing them and each time I ask Aunt that I need to call them. She makes excuses so I couldn't contact them.
It felt like I am a prisoner. A prisoner who doesn't allow to go out or interact with others outside. My aunt never let me go outside and I spent most of my time in the house cleaning this massive place.
Or spent the most time in the library. I believe Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.
And like everyone else, Jasper and I never talked to each other again after that incident. We are just avoiding having a conversation about that day and I guess, we should forget about it.
Benny still thinks it was all my fault that this happened. He convinced Ray and jagger to his side to not talk to me and they are avoiding me but only, Emily talked to me. She is really sweet and she shared everything with me.
And she is the only one who understands me and feels what I am feeling. I am so thankful for her to be so understanding and loving.
I was sitting on the bed, doing my bandage. I nudged the old bandages in the corner toward me. Once I had them in my hands, I unwound them to their full length.
The door swings open and Emily steps through the door.
" Aisling?... she look down at me and continued, " What are you doing? and what happened to you?
She saw some bandages on my bed and I have told her that I just hurt myself.
" When did this happen? and Why didn't you tell me about this before."
" Don't worry, I am fine. It's already started to heal."
She moved towards me and told me to let her check her wound. I did as she did say.
" Oh, I don't think, it's healing rather getting worse but you don't need to be worried about it. I can help you," she said and I don't understand what she meant by it.
She told me to straighten my leg and I straightened my leg on the bed and she closed her eyes.
All of the sudden, her hands begin to glow like a sun so bright and vibrant, so vivid and ablaze with warm colors... I was so surprised to see her and found myself in a state of shock.
She placed her hand on my wounded knee and all my pain was gone.
