Chapter Eight

Astraea Apartment

Emotions are the gateway to life and the heart is the soul!

Darkness consumed the surrounding as the hours passed over. The city rush was coming to end after a long day. László stood under the shower washing the blood off his body and closing his eyes. The wound over his shoulder was covered with a waterproof patch to protect it. He sighed moving his hand through his hair wiping the water away and turning the water off.

Bang!! Bang!!

Astraea lays down on the couch as the event played through her mind. Her eyes open slowly as she looks around. Everything felt vacant and devoid of feeling. The feeling of doom day overwhelmed her. Slowly getting up she sat on the bed looking around. She was in her apartment living room. The blanket covered her along with László coat. Something didn't feel right when an hour ago the event replayed through her mind.

Everything around suffocated her sooner than she thought. The sight of blood, body, and death hit her conscious and subconscious mind and heart. Her lung lost oxygen unable to breathe when she felt a cool hand on her cheeks.

"Ria!! Look at me!" László asked looking into her blue orbs and moving her blond hair away from her face.

"Breath!" He asked and she followed. He gestured to her actions and her breathing calmly.

László was dressed in a white shirt and black pants after showering. When he walked into the room he found Astraea almost having a panic attack. He already knew everything she faced was already too much for her innocence. He moved her hair away from her face he looked at her tears beaming eyes.

"It's okay!!" He rubbed her back holding her up in his arms and pulled her up on his lap pulling in a hug and rubbing her back.

"Everything is Fine!" László hugged her tightly keeping his chin on her shoulder and rubbing her back as she ascend over and he held her up.

Her chest meets up with his board one thumping against the other. His hands rubbed the back of her head calming her down. Hours passed like when he felt her relaxed body against his.

László gently moved his head away watching her sleeping against holding him tightly. He relaxed against the couch holding the blanket covering them.

Ring!!! Ring!!

His phone beeped slowly against the table. His hands reached the table holding it and finding his mother's text.

Call Me ASAP!!!

He grabbed his cell scrolled and tapped the cell and dial Zale's Number.

"Get inside along with some outfits, my laptop, and chef" László ordered in his thick Italian accent and hang up the call holding Astraea while she snuggle clutching to his shirt shifting her head right from left. László gazed at selling as Astraea shifts to a comfortable position.
