part 44 you are special

You are special

As I sat there, my heart racing and my mind reeling from Rebass' unexpected outburst, I couldn't help but wonder what was really going on in his mind. One moment he was cold and distant, the next he was fiercely protective and concerned for my well-being. It was a side of him I had never seen before, and it both frightened and intrigued me.

I stole a glance at Uncle, who seemed to be purposely avoiding getting involved in the situation. He was content to let Rebass take charge, even though he was technically the older and more experienced of the two. I couldn't help but feel a little betrayed by Uncle's lack of support, but I knew that Rebass' concerns were valid.

When Rebass finally calmed down and asked me why I had gone to my aunt's house alone, I hesitated before admitting that it was my fault. I knew deep down that I shouldn't have gone by myself, especially after what had happened to Refyus. But I was determined to find Uncle Jake, and I couldn't wait for anyone else to help me.

Rebass' reaction to my explanation was intense, to say the least. He slammed his hand on the table and raised his voice, causing me to jump in my seat.
But as quickly as his anger flared up, he seemed to rein it in and tried to reason with me in a more calm manner. His concern for my safety was evident, and I couldn't help but feel a warmth spreading through me at the thought of someone caring so deeply for me.

After a moment of tense silence, Rebass closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to regain his composure.

Rebass: Blezi, I am talking to you. Tell me why you made the decision to go alone, knowing the risks.

I hesitated, unsure of how to respond. I know that I had made a mistake, but I also knew that Rebass's anger would not solve anything.

Blezi: I went to lady Ophelia's because I thought she might know where Uncle Jake is. I had to try something.

John's expression softened slightly, but his concern was still evident. "And you think you will find him this way? What if he's gone, Blezi? What if you never find him?"

Blezi; Rebass, you barely come home. How was I supposed to tell you that I am going out? And how did I know that you would agree to come with me? Anyways, it's my mission to find him so don't worry about it"

I replied, trying to reassure him.
Frustrated, he grabbed my hand and said, "Come with me." He dragged me outside.

Blezi: wait, where are we going? Let me go.

He dragged me outside of the house and pointed to the empty streets.

"Do you see this? you won't find him here. do you know how big this world is. what if he is dead? what if you never recognize him after so many years? you are saying you will find him, even you know there is 1 percent chances from 100 that he will be alive. but still you are willing to do it. just because your stupid prince have told you to do."

Blezi: Behave Rebass. he is your future king.

Rebass: not my king. I am not from this kingdom. my kingdom has destroyed years ago.

I saw him getting angry but I knew he was right. there is no way I will find uncle Jake in this world. but the way Rebass was was concern about me giving me hard time to concentrate.

"Rebass." I wasn't able to speak. the load of word and pressure was enough to break a single wall and I am a human how can I take it. I start crying. my tears were coming none stop. "oh now you are crying." he said that and then he pull me close to him and hugged me. as I was trying to speak between my tears "I am sorry." he pat my head

Rebass: it's okay it's okay.

Blezi: I know you're right. I know you're always right. But what should I do? I feel like I'm losing. People won't believe me without solid proof, and I feel like I'm putting my life on the line. Rebass, I'm scared.

"Hey, hey. I believe in you," he said, holding my arms and making me look into his fiery red eyes. "I believe everything you say, and I'm with you. You don't need to worry. I won't let anyone hurt you again. Blezi, you're special. Do you know that?"

"Special?" I echoed, surprised by his words.

"Yes, you're special and unique. You stood up for yourself when no one else would support you. You're doing your best, and I believe in you. You just need to be more careful, blezi you are important for me" he encouraged, touching my cheeks gently.

His words brought a sense of comfort and reassurance. I felt a warm flutter in my chest as I gazed into his eyes, his presence calming my racing thoughts. The way he held me made me feel safe and protected, and I couldn't help but lean into his embrace.

His reassurance brought a sense of peace to my troubled heart, and I nodded in silent gratitude. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Are you okay now? Should we head home?"

I agreed, and we made our way back to the comfort of our shared space. Before I could retreat to my room, Rebass stopped me, a sheepish look on his face.

"I... I just want to apologize for my earlier behavior," he said, his voice filled with regret. "I didn't mean to get angry. I just... I'm sorry."

I shook my head, placing a hand on his arm.

"It's okay," I reassured him. "I understand. Thank you for always being there for me."

We shared a smile, a silent understanding passing between us. With a light heart, I bid him goodnight and entered my room, I saw Rose fast asleep, her face serene and peaceful in slumber. Despite her quirky sleeping position and loud snoring, I couldn't help but smile at her innocence. I sat by her bedside, admiring her gentle features.

Blezi: do you know Rose? your brother is so caring. your so lucky to have him as your big brother.

I whispered to her sleeping form. With a content smile, I retreated to my own bed and let sleep claim me.
