chapter 24

(Don't forget to vote and comment love🖤 )

I looked around the room.

There was big bed in the middle with gray

beddings, a table next to it, grey carpets and a TV mounted to the wall.

There was a large window that had an ocean view. A door to a walk in closet, and another one to the bathroom.

I sat on the window bed bench looking at the window.

It was window seat, soft and fluffy, with pillows..

I wasn't a fan of beaches like that. I always preferred the countryside. But somehow the view of the ocean comforted me.

I took one of the pillows and hugged it tightly. I leaned against the glass door still staring at the ocean.

The ocean was calm, the waters moving. It just looked so peaceful it warmed my cold heart.

I felt a little bit of joy and peace. Just from the skies and the waters.

It was still daytime so the sun was up.

I sat there for about two hours alone when the door opened and Sin walked in.

He had a tray with him.

I watched him as he came and sat on the

window seat next to mine.

He put it on a stool next to me.

The tray had food and the medication he was given for me..

There was a glass of mango juice for me today..

Also he had my diary and pen that he gave to me.

He quietly fed me. After, he gave me the

medication. The pills to swallow and the one I had to drink.

He then gave me the glass. I took it with my right hand.

He got up with the tray taking back the plate and the medication. Me still with my drink in hand.

I'll sip that slowly.

I heard him lock the door as he left.

I mango juice was cold and it felt a little

comforting too. Today wasn't as bad as I

expected.

The whole day, I was in the bedroom alone. I had no idea where Sin was, but I guessed somewhere around the house.

The whole time, he didn't say anything to me.

I just stayed in the bedroom alone.

I wrote down carefully what happened in my diary.

I had left it at the the night after my failed

rescue.

I wrote down going to the motel and my

attempt to take my life. Then at the hospital.

Then the night long drive to an open field where a helicopter brought us to an island.

I then closed the diary as I started looking at the ocean again.

At night, he brought me food again and

medicine again.

When i finished my food in silence, I decided to make my request.

"Can i please take a shower? I feel dirty."

"Sure." He answered.

He went into the bathroom I guess to check if the heater was working, then came back with a towel in his hand.

I took it and went to the bathroom.

"Don't get your wound wet!" He called after me.

After closing the door, I took off my dress and put it in a basket.

There was a shower inside glass walls. I opened the door and got in. I looked around and there was body wash two loofahs, one black and one

white.

I guessed the black one was his so I took the white one.

I used my right hand to wash myself slowly.

Finally, I had a decent shower.

With hot water!

I scrubbed my whole body making sure to keep my bandages dry.

After a whole 40 minute shower, I came out of the bathroom.

This felt so much better.

I walked out of the shower and went to the sink.

I looked at my face in the mirror and what i saw shocked even me.

I looked so pale. Like a ghost.

My eyes looked so hollow and sunken. My skin looked so dry, maybe from not being moisturized. I didn't have any lotion at the cabin. But thankfully, i saw bottles of lotion on the shelf next to the mirror.

I found other towels on the sink cabinets and I used one to dry my hair.

Then, I saw two brushes, still sealed in the box.

One was blue, the other was pink.

I decided the pink one was mine.

There was tooth paste next to them.

I brushed my teeth while staring at the mirror.

I really thought my mouth would stink at this point. All those days without brushing it.

I brushed my teeth and tongue thoroughly.

I also flossed and used mouth wash.

I had to get my entire mouth clean again.

I smelled my own breathe and I was satisfied.

I went to the bedroom in my towel.

It was a little short and I felt so self conscious when I saw Sin was still in the room.

When he saw me, he got up from the bed

holding a white dress shirt in his hand.

"Here!" He said pushing his hand to me. I walked over to him and took the shirt.

I guessed it was for me to wear.

I wasn't going to change infront of him so I

waited for him leave but what he did instead was turn around and face the wall.

I paused for a moment looking at him but he kept his head and body facing the wall.

He had his back on me. He couldn't see me like that.

I decided to quickly change into the shirt.

I had no undergarments so this was all I was going to wear.

The shirt was obviously his, it even smelt like him.

It was quite big and even with the hands. So long too it reached close to my knees.

I buttoned the shirt quickly just in case Sin

turned around.

When I was done, I stood there awkwardly for three minutes.

"Are you done?" He asked.

"Yes... Yes i am."I said. He then turned around.

He looked at me for a few seconds before

getting up and leaving..

I felt sleepy so I decided to get under the duvet.

The moment I got in bed, the door opened and Sin came back.

I knew what he came for so I prepared myself.

That night, he took me again on the bed.

And after he was done, instead of leaving, he was sleeping next to me.

I looked at him confused as he turned off the lights.

I did not move an inch as I listened to Sin breathing next to me.

This felt so awkward. Why would he sleep in the same bed as me? For the whole night?

And he dozed off almost immediately while I had to get myself comfortable having him in the same bed with me.

It took me forever to even close my eyes and sleep. It took me hours for my tense body to relax.

We weren't close enough to each other for our bodies to touch but we were close enough for me to hear him breathing.
