CHAPTER 31: Problem

  Athena

  I have walked into the kitchen for the first time since I was brought into this mansion, however, only to distract myself from the thoughts that only roamed around Sebastian. The encounter I had with him early this morning was still unnerving me in some manner and the last thing I wanted was to let the fear be alive within me once again.

  I prepared the cookie dough, my eyes absentmindedly focused on the scenery outside the window, it allowed me to look at the beautiful garden outside but that eye-catching view did not help me forget. I absentmindedly began drifting into the thoughts of Sebastian once again.

  Was it worth it to keep fighting or all of it was directing me to turn into a whole different person whose heart will be as cold as Sebastian's?

  No. I was not going to give up.

  What will giving up reward me? Nothing but regrets and a life that might be without pain but that wouldn't hold any meaning as well.
