Chapter 9:- finding light…. (Miette)

It has been around 1 hour since Reo left in the cellar.

(God, I wanted to go with him. It's not like I like his company now. He is still an asshole who's always mean to me but... there is a different comfort in h-

I'm not gonna continue that stupid thought.)

I tried to divert my mind but the only memory that came to my mind was of Reo and I hugging. Why did I even do that? It was so impulsive and I didn't even realize that I was sitting on his lap.

I-it felt nice...

(Ahhhhhhhh! I will go insane at this point... Fuck it! I will go after him.)

I decided to descend the cellar. I was really scared of closed spaces and of the dark but I still tried to go after him.

(Why did he even go down there? He could have just ignored it.)

I grabbed a torch from where he took one. There were many of all sorts and it was kind of suspicious. So many torches weren't needed in an ordinary household.

I descended and looked for a bulb to light up.
