Mark's POV

Usually Eduardo tells Jon something and once in a while punches him in the face and he would just forget about what happened the day before and turn back to his goofy and happy self, but this time Eduado was way more aggressive towards him. This left me worried and made me feel really bad for Jon, I just hoped that this incident wouldn't left a negative impact on him. But yet again, he is the silly and happy Jon that we have known for years and we know that he had already went through a lot and was still able to maintain his happiness so I guessed that he should be his positive self Tomorrow.

I decided to go to the kitchen to check on him and what I saw was horrendous. He already had a lot of bruises on his arms and a black eye from what I could see. I could only see the parts of his body that weren't covered in clothing, but I was sure that he had way more bruses forming in other areas on his body underneath his clothes. This sight made me nauseous, what Eduardo did was so horrible, he can be a monster at times but this tops it all off.

I walked towards Jon who was now slowly standing up but struggling at fully getting onto his feet. Finally I reached him and was able to give him a hand to pull him up. At this point I saw him limping on one foot, he might be in a lot of pain. Also his face was still stained with tears, he looked tired, sad and hurt.

I offered to clean up the foamy mess by myself, but Jon shook his head and croaked out that he can do this by himself and that he deserved to clean this up since he was the one responsible for this. His voice had cracks in it and his eyes were darted down to the floor, he seemed to avoid any eye contact with me. This was strange, since he had never done this before but still I was holding on to the thought that he is going to be his cheerful self again at the end of this day.

I let him do what he wanted to do and was about to go to my room when I decided to tell him one last thing "Jon, you know that Eduardo didn't meant what he said. He was an asshole for what he did, but those were only his impulses that made him snap at you. We all love you, don't you ever forget this." I said as kind as possible in the hopes to see him smile. But he didn't smiled, he just looked in my direction and kept his gaze down with a frown on his face.

I hated seeing him this way, but I felt like that everything that I would have said to him wouldn't bring up his mood. So I went upstairs and left him behind, I gave him some space so that he could clear his mind. I thought that I did a good thing by leaving him alone, but deep down I slightly felt that what I did wasn't the right choice after all.

Jon's POV

Finally I was left alone. I would have loved to have Mark stay here with me for a little longer to at least not be alone with my thoughts, but on the other hand I can not stand listening to him lying to me. He doesn't love me and neither does Eduardo, they both probably want me gone and looking back at every Mistake I ever made I could understand them. If I were them I would have wanted me gone as well, I am not worthy enough to even exist or to even be the roommate of anyone.

I sighed and cleaned up what was left of the mess and luckily the Maschine had stopped leaking out the foam. After I cleaned up the kitchen I took a glance in the Maschine and even there the dishes were coated with foam. I washed them manually with water, dried them up and put them in their right place. The problem here was that I couldn't see through the foam what I was pulling out. So when I got with my right hand into the Maschine I grabbed some sharp knifes and while doing this I gripped them on the blades so that I accidentally cut myself.
