I spent last night thinking about all that Levi told me, barely getting any sleep.

I just don't understand.

I killed my parents.

"You were five." Nyx says trying to comfort me, it isn't working.

That isn't an excuse. I killed my parents. I deliberately ended their lives, and the White Doves....

The White Doves....

No wonder they treated me terribly. No wonder they hate me.

I am a danger to their society.

I am not one of them.

I am a monster. A monster that killed it's parents.

They were right.

My eyes water, then I feel a hot slap on my cheek.

"ERIS! ERIS!"

I turn to the voice, Liv, I frown at her and abruptly get up feeling the burning sensation on my face. "What was that for!!!" I yell at the girl; she rolls her pale blue eyes.

"I was talking to you when you rudely ignored me." She pouts and crosses her arms.

"Oh, sorry." I apologize shrugging, "I've had some things on my mind."

Liv gets up and goes towards the cell bars, she sighs then looks at me, "Eris," She begins, "You've been acting weird these days...Like you're hiding something."

Time to lie.

"I've just been having THOSE days." I lie, she stares at me confused and I give her a look. I can basically see the gears turning in her brain. "I'm on my days." I quickly say before she bursts a vein. "O... OH!" She exclaims in realization, "Well, you could've just told me that was what was going on. I was really worried."

I shrug and Liv smiles. "Anyways," she continues, "I'm going to the castle. Ajax said he has some sort of surprise for me." I nod and Liv leaves.

I decide to go outside and search for Levi, to apologize for yesterday, it was really rude how I left him. 

I search around for a while unable to find my friend, until I feel a small tap on my shoulder, when I turn around, I realize it's Levi. "I was looking for you." I say and he gives me a small smile, "Well, here I am. Are you feeling better now? About everything?" 

I smile and give him a hug; he hugs back without hesitating. "I'm sorry I ran off yesterday," I whisper, "It was very rude. It's just..."

"You were overwhelmed, I know." He says releasing me from the hug, I nod and wipe some small tears from my eyes. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you about your parents so soon." Levi frowns and I shake my head, "Don't apologize, it was me who begged for the truth and..I'm kind of happy I know now, I feel relieved."

Levi nods, "If it makes you feel better, your parents don't blame you for what happened, they're not angry." 

"They don't?"

"Yes," he replies, "I've spoken to them."

A small smile spreads across my lips, happiness. I am happy. Happy and relieved.

"I need to go help with construction," Levi says grasping my attention, "I'll see you later."

I wave goodbye and he leaves, soon after, Ava walks up to me. "I've been looking for you everywhere!" The brunette tells me grabbing my wrist, "Come! We need to get to the farm."

Ava and I quickly walk to the farm, once we arrive Gretta grabs me by the collar, "Where have you been!?" She asks me, with her signature scowl. "I..erm..Got lost." I lie, Gretta doesn't believe me, as she should. "You're a lying rat." She sneers, I can smell her tuna breath.
