To rebuild our home

Mark's POV

"How can you say this?! Do you really think that you have taught him something good by making him stay in his room like a coward, by making him probably afraid of you! He doesn't deserve this, all he did was trying to help us! You were always his role model, so try to appreciating him more! I wasn't very kind to him in the past as well, but I would have never gone as far as you did today!" I yelled at him.

"Oh, shut it. He is going to be fine, I don't see why you are making such a fuzz about this." Eduardo told me in a calm manner before shoving up more food in his mouth and chewing at it in enjoyment. "It's always the same with you Eduardo. You just wait for him to get happy again and make a mistake so that you could break him down again. I surely hope that your actions aren't going to leave scars inside of him, but after what happened today I am not so sure about his well-being. One day you are going to crush him with your abuse and then you will know what regret feels like." I stated and saw a shift in his face, he furrowed his brows and looked down at his plate in anger and stubbornness.

I didn't expected an answer from him and I knew that this wouldn't evoke any regret about his actions towards Jon. Also I didn't expected him to accept that what he did was wrong. Eduardo is stubborn and in moments like this not really worth talking to. Once he has an opinion to a certain topic there is no way in proving him otherwise. He always thinks that he is in the right, when in reality he most of the times isn't.

"My 'abuse' yeah right, I am not abusing him, I am only punishing him for the shit that he does. And also as I said he will be fine tomorrow. Let him cry the troubles from today out and tomorrow we are going to see him as the Jon that we have known for years. I mean even after the thing from the hospital he hasn't changed a bit, so why would he suddenly change or be broken or whatever by what happened today? And now let me eat in peace, will ya?" He stated in a matter of fact way and tried to end the conversation with this statement.

This was it, I didn't tried convincing him of anything right now but still I was somehow underwelmth by the way he reacted. If he won't accept the truth then so it might be. Still my worry for Jon hasn't left as I ate my now half cold food.

Jon's POV

I saw Eduardo, he stood in front of me and was a little taller than usual or I was a little smaller then usual, I really couldn't tell. We were in the kitchen I was breathing heavily as I saw signs of anger flashing in his eyes. His brows were furrowed and his hands were clenched into fists. He walked towards me and this time I backed away from him further. I didn't even looked back, because I was afraid that when I left him out of the sight he would get quicker to me.

He had now a wide sadistic smile on his face and just a moment later I knew why. I hit a wall, I couldn't back away from him anymore. I was in a corner. My surrounding seemed to cave in on me and the lights of the kitchen seemed to flicker. I was afraid, this wasn't like the last time. Everything seemed so surreal.

I felt my heart as it was beating fast and although I didn't questioned if this was really happening right now, I instead questioned what I did wrong this time. I spoke my thought out, I questioned what I had done to Eduardo, but this only made him angrier.

I felt as if I was getting smaller and he was getting bigger once he had reached me. He grabbed me on my shirt collar as I protected my face with my hands. He holded me up into the air just to let me drop back to the floor on my back. I yelped out in pain, but this made him only crack out an evil smirk at me.

He didn't felt any sympathy for me, he only felt contentment from abusing me. Then he finally took the opportunity of me being on my back on the ground just to kick me down on my stomach with his right foot. I could hear laughter escaping his mouth while I let out a horrendous scream. After this he went on for my neck and strangled me like there was no tomorrow and in those split seconds were I felt like I was sure that I was going to die, I cracked a smile on my face because now I would finally stop being a burden for him and Mark, I thought that I could finally rest in peace.
