[Eddsworld] Txl au (English version)

☁ Rage

Edd's P.o.v

A few days pass, nothing much happens, Tord came to me to apologise, and Tom is still lockeup up in his room

Today was a peaceful day, Tom even come hang out on the sofa with us while Tord showered, we laughed a bit, but of couse, Tom went back to his room when Tord returned, i don't blame him

I noticed Tom was a bit- apathetic, not expressing much amotion, but anyways, i think that's normal of him

It's already a calm night, i can even hear some crickets outside, that makes me feel comfort, knowing that most of that heavy mood that once took place, is gone now, at least it's not as bad as before

Is it weird for me to think that Tom's breakdown actually helped him a lot?

Putting myself in his shoes, it must feel nice to feel welcomed and have people acknowledge your worth after years of- nothing

But it may also feel terrible to feel like you can't reciprocate it for still being quite shaken

I mean, he does reciprocate, but he doesn't feel like he's doing it enough

I don't blame him for being rude some times, it's normal, tension messes with us, and some times we can't help but snap and act a certain way and-

Ah, why am i thinking about this again?

Forget about it

Thinking about this, i sent Tom a message a while ago, but i don't think he saw it yet

Hm...

I send another message and it stays at "not read"

Ok, maybe he's busy, i'll go there to check

I make my way to his room and knock on the door, to no answer

I put my ear to the door to see if i hear the shower, but i hear nothing

I decide to get in anyways, knowing he rarely remembers to lock the door

I get in and he's not there

— Tom? — I pause — TOM!?

 I scream, walking around the house, but i can't find him anywhere

I panic

— Edd? What happened? — Matt comes to me

— For the love of god, did you see Tom anywhere?

— Actually, no

I start panting, putting my hands in my head

— Hey, Edd, relax!

— T-There's no way i can relax! Tom's not inside, it's dark out there, he left his phone in his room! where the fuck could he be??

— Calm down Edd, maybe he went out to grab something

— Matt, It's dark, and it's early, and he wouldn't even leave the house if it was a sunny day! what in the world would he be doing outside, right now, and without his phone?
