(ON HOLD) BEFORE I MET HIM

Chapter 11(Xavier's insult)

I got back to my room safe and sound-Yeah I will use that word safe and sound, I did not meet Xavier that might be pissed off with a thing I wouldn't know, and Xander that will give me that cold look.

I stayed in my room with different thoughts running through my head, the tears came willingly and I just have to let it down. and cried till I fell asleep. I woke up feeling weak, I drank the water in the bottle, then sat down looking at the window. The sun is settling down already.

I remember those days when the sun sets to rest, my mum and I will stay on the balcony, looking at the sky while she is plaiting my hair or she is telling me a story.

I have never felt genuinely happy in the last eight years, I thought sadly.

I don't know how long am going to stay here but there's a deal now if luke is down am free! I just have to be praying and I know mum is praying for me as well so they can get hold of Luke. They just have to get him.

I am dying out of boredom I don't even have anyone to talk to or stuff.

Yeah!The maid

Although we are not on good terms she is still someone I can still access, I know she wants to be friends with me but in my situation, I get pissed at the tiniest thing. I which everyone could understand what I am passing through.

I feel like dying every day, I just want to die, I am tired. There is no way I could die. I looked at myself in the mirror and my appearance was more worst than when I was still at home.

I waited to check the time, till I lost count of time, I came back to reality and it was 5 already, the maid will have been in the kitchen preparing for dinner.

This is a perfect time.

I quickly wore my slippers and left the room back to the kitchen hoping to see her there but unfortunately, I met Xavier there.

Shit! Of all people why must it be this psycho, I thought biting my lips hard.

"Any problem young lady," He said taking me back to reality.

"Oh yeah..No..I am fine," I said nervously.
"Huh" Was all he said.

I took a deep breath down, Ava you can do this. I walked passed him going to get the door that leads to the balcony when he stopped me.

"To where young miss?" He said in sarcasm

Can't this guy just overlook anything I do here? I gave him that irritating look  "I wanna talk to the maid" I told him rolling my eyes.

"It seems you are fond of rolling your eyes every damn time", he said scoffing.

I Ignored him, trying to walk past me when he stopped me, I demand an answer from you any fucking time I asked you a question".

Why do they not like being snubbed, like his brother?

"Okay Xavier or whatever your name is please, pretty please can you just ignore me and just let go of my arm?" I said not ready to argue with him.

"Wow!  pretty cool, I could see your joblessness makes you run your mouth uncountably." He said.

Okay, what did I say to deserve that reply from him? I don't think he is mentally stable. I will need to be avoiding him as of now.

Then he looked at me as if he could see my soul,

"Okay, Xavier or whatever your name is please, pretty please can you just ignore me or let go of my arm," he said mimicking my voice.

I was angry and surprised, I looked at him like I should cut off his head from his neck.

"What about if you will be on the bed then you say this," he said licking his lips, trying to seduce me.

What was this not the man that was running his mouth at me the other time trying to seduce me now?

Amazing? There are a lot of Buggers in this place.

I scoffed "Well, that can never happen in your dreams," I said with confidence.

Of course well it can't happen because what the hell will I be doing with a lowlife like you, you don't even worth staying in my dreams" Bitch stay focused!

OMG!!! My heart just broke into pieces.  Did he just say that? I wasn't expecting that, my eyes sprinkled with tears...I was just too hurt.

"Freya I'm off, come to my room when you are done," he said leaving the kitchen and not minding if I am hurt or not.

"Okay, Xavier" I heard Freya's voice.

Ohh, she is even listening to me all this while.

Perfect!.

I held back my tears In case I meet any guards on the way I dragged my feet out of the kitchen, I was just too hurt. This is just too much for me, why me?

I have never been called a lowlife in my life,
I am held as a hostage here even if I am released my life is still in danger, I felt this world is against me.

The hot tears came down running on me freely, I couldn't even stop it. I entered my room and sat on the small chair facing the dressing mirror.

I looked at myself, touching my face, Ava Baker you don't deserve this life. You've always been a happy and cheerful girl, even if when life throws a stone at me, I will use my love and dreams to turn them into flowers of discovery.

I looked at myself for a long time that I lost the track of time, I sighed deeply.

The last tears I am holding fell and I whispered, "Mom I miss you" in a low and painfully voice, coupled with a forceful smile.

My mental health is at stake!
