Chapter Thirty Three

I took my time eating my breakfast, didn't know how much time had passed and I still wasn't done with the food.

After eating I cleared the table, washed the plates, and went back up to my room. Luckily for me, there was a tv in the room and so I stayed glued to it. I watched a couple of soap operas.

A knock came on the door and I went to answer it. It was Mar and I let him come inside.

"I know you want to tell me I told you so. I was wrong to have left your house"

"I came to check up on you, haven't seen you since yesterday"

My cheeks reddened I was too fast. I could have waited for him to say something first before jumping to a conclusion.

"Do you mind if I join you?"

"You don't need to ask me if you should sit"

He joined me on the bed. The room suddenly felt so small with him in it. And the silence was too loud. And then he spoke up.

"Listen Arya I'm not trying to cage you up or something, I just want to protect you"

"Why?"

"Because you need it"
