denying the truth

.・゜゜・　　・゜゜・．

It was around eight in the morning. You were just sitting next to Wilhemina until she woke up. You didn't sleep a second. Then you saw her eyelids part, revealing those breath-taking brown eyes of hers.

-"Good morning Wilhemina. How is your leg?"

-"Better. It still hurts a bit but it will be fine soon."

-"Now you should talk about what happened yesterday. I gave you time, and rest. I expect the truth from you."

-"Alright. I will not avoid the truth because you will find out anyways. The cube Ms. Mead gave you had sedatives inside. It made you sleep for a long time. Ms. Mead and I planned everything out but she decided to turn on me. Before she did, we made a 'party' everyone had to attend and we gave them poisoned apples. By this time you were passed out in my room, they were all dead of poison..."

-"You also just tried to seduce me in your room is that right too? I just ask one simple question; Why?"

-"For us. We would have enough food to live a few more years, just the two of us, and Ms. Mead doesn't eat anyways. She was a robot created in my ex-company."

-"Wilhemina this was not the only way for our happiness, for god's sake! The cooperative might have found a different solution...! There are also other outposts, and they might be starting to build a new generation. Why, why did you build a wall inside your head once again, a wall that's telling you we will have to die here? Why? We could of had it all. All."

-"I'm sorry..."

-"No. There is no coming back from what you've done. I just want to tell you how much I loved you. I killed for you without regrets. I, with my own hands cleaned up your mess in the hallway, after taking care of YOUR injury and putting you to bed peacefully. Are you aware of the amount of lives you've taken, just to feel a little pleasure? All those people had feelings, hopes, dreams. Why do you think to yourself you are so incredibly superior to take it away from them? I have shown you enough mercy."

You saw her eyes fill up with tears but you didn't care;

-"(Y/n) do you think with time we could..."

-"No. I don't want any further contact with you other than treating your injury until it heals."

She started sobbing, but you just left and went to the kitchen. You took one cube and brought it to Wilhemina's room. You knocked on the doors;

-"I'm coming in. Here, Ms. Venable, I will put your breakfast here. You should eat. It will make your injury heal faster."-she was laying on the bed, her back turned to you. You tapped her shoulder but she didn't react, so you left.

Days passed like this. You would just bring in new cubes and see she still hasn't eaten the last one you brought. It was tearing you apart, watching her like this. But she truly was a horrible person.

One day you brought in a cube but you just couldn't watch her like this anymore;

-"Wilhemina, please eat. I beg you. You will die if you continue like this. I still care about you so, so much. I want your injury to heal so you can move around normally again."

-"You do? You care?"

-"Yes. I do."

-"I would feel better if you feed me. If that's okay."

-"Is that the only way you will eat?"

-"I think so..."

-"Alright then."

It looked like something blossomed inside her when you agreed to do it. She sat up on the bed she spent most of her days in.

You took a fork and fed her. Her brown eyes were staring right at you.

-"Look Mina! You ate the full cube! I am so proud."

-"Thank you for your help, (y/n)"

-"I see you haven't been taking care of yourself... How many days didn't you get out of bed?"

-"Many. I stopped counting."

-"I can help you wash up only because you are injured."

-"Would-would you really? Thank you..."

You got Mina in a bathtub and filled it with warm water and bubbles. It smelled like lavender.

-"Is the water alright to you?"

-"It's just the right temperature. Do you think you could massage my back like that one time? It really hurts these days..."

-"Okay, I will do it for you."

You massaged her back and she closed her eyes, she told you she liked it.

-"Does your back feel better?"

-"Yeah, it does but..."-she took your hand and put it in between her thighs.

-"Wilhemina I can't do this. I'm so sorry."-you just said as you pulled your hand away.

Wilhemina didn't say anything but her eyes filled with tears. Her head was down the whole time. She was horribly quiet as well, she wasn't a type to talk a lot usually but now she was just... silent.

-"Come on Mina, don't be embarrassed, I will act as if this never happened if you are more comfortable."- you said to her while she was still just laying in a warm bubble bath.

-"Okay... I'm sorry."

-"No need to be. It's fine. How is your leg?"

-"It's-fine, I suppose. It stings a little."

-"That's normal during the recovery."

Mina just nodded and looked away. You cut off the awkward silence;

-"Do you want me to wash your hair now?"

-"Mhm. I would love that."

You grabbed the purple shampoo and opened it, it smelled amazing;

-"This smells wonderful, Wilhemina!"

-"Violets. You like the smell as well!?"

-"I really do!"

Wilhemina just softly chuckled. You took a bit of shampoo in your hand and started massaging it into her hair.

-"Mina, is your red hair natural?"

-"Yes, silly. Of course it is. Where do you think I would be keeping the dye for the whole time we've spent in the outpost?"

-"You are right, I'm dumb. Your hair is just beautiful, by the way. I am going to wash the shampoo off now, you should close your eyes!"

-"Alright."-she did just as you said.

When you were done you wiped the water off her eyes with your thumbs and she revealed those beautiful brown opals she had. They almost left you gazing, it was just like seeing her, for the first time, again.

You pulled away somehow and just grabbed the conditioner and rubbed it into her reddish locks. After washing it away you had to go through the most embarrassing part of all; washing her body. You wished to find an excuse so she could do it herself but there was no excuse. She couldn't stand herself, of course she needed help that you didn't offer for days because you were acting stupidly childish.

"Mina, I will help you stand up, then just hold my shoulders to keep balance while I wash you up."

-"Okay..."
