Finding my Truly (sequel)

Chapter 7: Will you be my friend?

I am currently packing my things in the guest room and it's making me tired already. I haven't even told Aunt yet and she is coming back tomorrow

Just great. I sigh

I moved into Ares's house yesterday as per his demand. We haven't seen each other since he confessed he liked my cooking. Maybe he isn't used to being humbled.

I go outside my room and I wander around the house for a while.

I go towards Ares's study to see him staring sadly up at a picture in his hand making me wonder what's wrong with him is he missing someone?

He must have sensed my presence because he lifts his eyes from the frame and stares at me, "What are you doing here?" he asks me with a slight frown.

Maybe coming here wasn't the right time.

I nod with a small smile to ease the tension, "Yeah I am just getting settled in." I say and he just stares at me.

"Great to know that to know Luna," I say what he was supposed to say after

He throws me and glare and puts the frame down on his desk walking towards me, "You need to stay out of my space." he says making me feel like I did something wrong.

"I am sorry if I did something wrong I just saw that you looked down and I just wanted to ask if you are okay," I told him truthfully with a mere smile.

He rolls his eyes, "I never asked you to be my babysitter, Luna, so don't fucking check on me know your boundaries," he snaps making me want to cry.

Why does he have to be rude if I crossed boundaries I am sorry but there is no need to be rude about it.

I swallow down the tears and smile slightly at him, "I am sorry if I crossed my boundaries Mr. Walker I did not mean to.," I say looking at him, "It's just in my nature to ask people if they are okay when see they seem sad." I whisper

For a moment something softens in his eyes but is quickly covers it up with an angry expression, "I pay you to fucking work not to be all in my space." he says making me want to give him a reality check, "You not my therapist and I don't need you know my problems

I walk towards him tired of being the nice person, "If you think that you are the only one in the world who's going through something then you are mistaken Ares," I say and he is taken back by tone, "There are many people out in this world that is going through something who I really wish I can help but here I am stuck working for an arrogant man who lacks basic human decency."

He seems taken aback from what I said.

"I will stay out of your way from now on," I say looking down on the floor and walking out.

Ares pov

I am taken aback by what Luna just said. Never have I ever met a woman who stood up to me like that, not my sister, Kylie, or even Rhea.

I shouldn't have said what I said but I was so caught up in my emotions that I took it out on Luna.

Luna humbled me. I walk towards my desk and put the picture frame away.

It was a picture of Rhea and I when we were younger.

There are just moments I miss her and today was a moment but then Luna came waltzing in with all smiles making question about how can someone be so happy all the time.
