A New Life (YamixOC and SetoxJoey)

Chapter 33

⚠️trigger warning⚠️
SAKURA POV

A few days pass and I refused to leave my room. I've been having my meals brought to me but I barely ate. I basically just stayed in bed watching tv, texting people occasionally so they know I'm okay.

Yami has come everyday and has tried to get me to leave my room, but I just felt safe in my room, not to mention I was enjoying the quiet

There was a small knock on my door and it opens a crack.

"Hey sakura" said Joey "I'm just coming to see if you're okay."

I look at him with tired eyes. "I'm ok daddy Joey" I said softly.

"You sure?" He asked "we haven't seen you since Sunday"

I just nod as I turn my attention back to the glowing screen.

I hear Joey sigh and the sound of footsteps that abruptly stop as he sees what I'm assuming was the untouched food from breakfast that morning.

"Have ya not been eating?" He asked

I shrug. "Just haven't been hungry"

I feel the bed dip down next to me as he crawls in next to me and he wraps his arms around me tightly.

"Please take care of yourself Sakura" he said "we're all worried about you." He then kisses my temple and gets back up. "We're heading out to the store for a bit if you wanna come, if not we'll be back later"

⚠️⚠️trigger starts here ⚠️⚠️

I just nod and he walks out, shutting the door behind him. Once he's gone I get up and head into my bathroom and pull out a small box as well as the first aid kit from underneath my sink.

I pull my pajama pants down to show just my thighs and I open the small box, pulling out a small razor. I place the blade on my thigh and start making cuts, each one for making everyone worry, for James finding me, for thinking running away from him in the first place, for being a burden. I continue to make the cuts till I think I've punished myself enough and I put the blade back in the box.

⚠️ end trigger ⚠️

I pull out my gauze and antibiotic ointment to clean and dress my thighs. I pull my pants back up and I put away the box and the medical supplies, wincing from the bandages rubbing my cuts. Looking at myself in the mirror i notice that I have begun to lose weight, and dark bags are visible under my eyes from not sleeping much due to the nightmares and the stress.

'I look like a mess' I thought to myself.

The sound of my phone ringing pulls me away from my reflection and I walk back into my room and pick up the small device. Seeing 'my pharaoh' on the screen I answer.

"Hello" I said, wincing at how groggy my voice sounded.

"Hello love" said Yami. "How are you doing today?"

"I'm fine" I replied as I sit on the edge of my bed.

"Have you eaten?"

I look at the still full plate on my nightstand. "Yeah I ate" I lied

"Good" he said "do you have any plans for the day?"

"No, I'm just going what I've been doing the last few days"

"In that case how would you like me to bring over everyone?" He asked "you might enjoy the company"

I contemplate telling him no but I soon realize that has right. Despite having Seto and the others here I've been kinda lonely lately.
