26: My Only Friend

Chapter 26

-Miracle Astor-

"Your brothers invited you to have dinner together with them, Miss Mira." Dana tells me, but I only shook my head.

I sat on my window nook, my knees pulled to my chest while I was looking at the stars in the dark sky outside.

This scene kind of feels deja vu.

I don't really want to see anyone right now, especially after everything that happened. Gabriel, Damion, and Dana are the only people I want to see and talk to. No one else but them.

Although I'm still deeply saddened with the thought of Damion wanting to send me away to get rid of me.

But at least I'll still have Gabriel, right?

"Okay, I understand if you don't want to, my sweet miss. I'll just bring your dinner here in your room."

It's quite funny to think that a month before they don't even want to see my face at the dining table and now all of them are actually inviting me to have dinner with them.

I think right now it is I who don't want to see their faces.

But....

"Are they going to be mad?" I asked in a small voice while still staring at the stars with sadness.

When I was a little girl I always dreamed of this very moment when my big brothers would finally invite me to have dinner with them so that we can eat together once again as a family. But right now I really couldn't bring myself to face the twins and Corbin. Everything they have cruelly done to me for the past eight years are all coming back to me all at once. And it hurts so much. It's like a bandaged that's been ripped open in an unhealed wound.

"No one is mad at you, Miss Mira, believe it or not and I couldn't believe that I'm actually saying this myself, but those boys are really worried about you." Dana told me in her usual calming voice.

"Why are they worried just now though?" I frowned deeply and Dana gave no answer.

They didn't care when they were the ones hurting me, but when they found out that I was being hurt by other people they suddenly care. That's funny. What does that make them?

My hands grabbed my head and I groaned both emotionally and mentally in pain.

I want Gaby's hug so bad right now.

I want to call him so that I can hear his voice, but I don't want to be that much of a bother. He's spending time with his father for goodness' sake.

"I will get your dinner---

"No, thank you, Dana. I'm quite full right now. I just want to rest." I buried my face in my hands.

I was smiling and laughing with Gabriel a little while ago, his words and actions made my heart feel at ease. And now that I'm back to my this mansion where I was born and raised, back with my brothers, I'm miserable than ever.

What they say is true I guess. Sometimes home is not a place, but a person.

Dana already left minutes ago and I stayed in that position for a while overthinking everything that's out of my control once again. That might be the only thing I do best it seems.

Few minutes later I finally had enough in this position. I just suddenly got bored and curious of what my brothers might be talking about in the dining room. Perhaps I could just take a peak and listen to their conversation for a little bit?

I sigh to myself, putting on my soft bunny slippers, before going out of my bedroom to do just that.

Now I'm standing just behind the door to the dining room, it seems they just finished dinner and the twins just left to only God knows where. It was only Damion and Corbin inside now. and still sitting there. But by the looks of it, it's as if both of them didn't really touch the food on their plate.
