The girl have been hiding in his room for two days. They really get to know each other a bit not deep. He gave his shirt for her to change which is somewhat fit for her and they spend many special moments together. In short they liked each other company

On a fine evening as it slowly started to drizzle with a gentle cool breeze where everyone where running inside to hide from the rain. Nick asked her

"Do you wanna eat something? "

She noded her head with a spark eagerly

"Have you ever eaten an apple pie? "Asked Nick

The girl again noded her head left and right indicating no

" So today...... . let me tell you what is an apple pie and how to make one" Said Nick

Nick guided her to the kitchen just near the bed it's very small room

"Do you know? I loveee apple pie 'cause my grandmother used to make when I was young. "

Saying this Nick reminded of his days with his grandmother and stunned with the nostalgic memories. Then when he came back to reality

"One more important thing is that apple pie is the symbol of comfort and I'm really feel very comfortable with you . 'cause you listen to me, you are nice to me..... So I'm going to make an apple pie for you"

Nick said with a spark and gave a little smile whole heartedly. She stared at him and started to admired him.

Nick per- heated the oven and on a plate he pressed the flour against the side and bottom of it and took a bowl and started to mix apple, brown sugar, cinnamon, butter and placed it over the layer of floor and covered it with another layer of floor and placed it in the oven. After making apple pie.

They both sat near the window and ate the pie watching the outside view , as the leaves dances and blush in the drizzle. She was happy with the pie and felt walking on the cloud nine with Nick. Nick said her many stories about his past and childhood and he showed her his childhood photos saying stories behind each photos. They spend the time happily until the moment he saw the photo of the man, his father's friend who abused him, he was halted in tears and the happiness in his face vanished , the girl held him with warmth without uttering a word or asking him the reason behind his tears

Nick held her with his two arms tightly and started to cry mourning
" I can't express this discomfort to anyone 'cause everyone will laugh at me and none of them will understand my feeling. How could someone hear the trauma feeling of a boy everyone will laugh at me" Nick broken
Nick sat up and started as the girl sat near him

"One day when I was 5 my parents let me to stay in my uncle's house, he was my father's friend"

Treas rolled down as he closed his knees and hugged them

"He forced me to watch shitty things and did... And he..... " He was totally broken into tears. She held him and comforted.

"I tried to say it to my mom but... But I couldn't " Nick shattered into pieces.
He yelled and cried heavily. The girl rubbed his shoulder and comforted him and said

"It's alright, I'm right her with you Nick" The same sweet voice he heard in his dream.
