The Ferocious

part 6

[Adrian POV]
-Kitchen (Morning)-
.
I was chopping the ingredients in the kitchen. Everyday I will cook for her since she's agreed to stay with me.. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and sometimes supper. It's devastating knowing that all this time I've hurt her because of something she didn't do. I really don't deserve her. I-I'm a monster. Didn't aware that my finger was on the chop board, I accidentally cut it a little. Blood gushed out as I snapped out from my deep thoughts. I quickly turn on the pipe and let the blood run through with the water.

Dried my hands, I was about to leave the kitchen but my movement went halt. Evelyn enter the kitchen with the same emotionless face, not a single smile ever plastered on her pretty face. All of those were gone. Because of me.

"Umm.. you wanna eat?" The simple words were hard for me every time I faced her. The guilty feeling arose. And yeah.. being ignored. Again.

[Author POV]

Evelyn walked towards the refrigerator and pulled the handle.

As she found an apple, she grabbed it and faced Ian.

"I'm sorry b-babe" Adrian whispered.

He looked down.

"I-I know I've mistreated you bun. But p-please.. s-stop ignoring me…" He fell on his knees and let out the tears streaming down his cheeks.

He was crying hard. His eyes were swollen. His lips trembled.

"I-I'm sorry love.. p-please speak to me.. p-pleasee" He couldn't brace himself from breaking down in front of his love. He kept bending down until his forehead touched the cold floor. "P-pleasee"

Evelyn stood there while crossing her arm on her chest. She glanced at the broken Ian. It didn't affect her. She walked out from the kitchen leaving him.

As Ian didn't hear anything. He slowly got up and realized that he's alone. Evelyn was not there anymore.

[Evelyn POV]

I sat on the couch and pulled my knees together. I balled myself. After a few minutes, A tremendous sound hit my ears. Perhaps it's Ian, punching something.. mybe. I sighed heavily.

As I was munching my apple, I saw Ian walking towards me wearing his bunny smile with another poker face, act like nothing happened before.

"Hey! Let's eat together! Here!" It's my favorite dish. A pasta. My stomach growls indicating it wants to be filled.  I grabbed the pasta from his hands and ate a few spoons. After I finished, I stood up and went directly into my bedroom.

[A weeks later]
.
Time flew, still the same atmosphere. Nothing new. But.. this time Ian allowed me to go outside. H-he said that he trusted me. It's hard to believe but.. let's just grab the opportunity to go out.

It's been a while since my last time wearing these kinds of clothes. A loose knitwear cardigan with a scarf covering my neck. I looked in the mirror for the last time before I walked out of the house.

On my way towards the crossing I pass many other shops. They were mainly shops selling clothes, shoes and watches. It's still the same store and shop along the way. The Ice Cream truck caught my eyes. I hop joyfully towards the truck and point to the specific ice cream pic on the counter indicating that 'I want this please!' Within a sec, the workers handed me my chocolate mint ice cream.
.

My legs went towards the playground. My childhood self will always spend her time here. I sat on the swing and watched the sunset.

I thought that if I'm watching this, it'll calm myself. But then I started to feel uneasy. Without wasting any moments, I walked back to Ian’s mansion.
