When the atmosphere around Naomi becomes quieter, Jason takes her to their cabin. During their way, they walked close to volleyball court, forge, and armoury. Jason noticed the way she was looking at the camp, knowing she would need a little bit of time to get used to this. By her eyes, he could see curious but also tell that she was having a talk with her own things. He completely understood it. Taking a look at the fact that she didn't know anyone here, and now she got to know that her father is a God and she has an older brother by 8 years was for sure a lot to take. He was curious by her story, but he decided to not asking questions until they reached out to cabin 1.
Jason Pov :
We were standing now in front of the doors to our cabin. I waited with opening them until she stopped looking up at every detail of the building. After a moment, I spoke :
- I see you quite like it
~ Naomi looked at me and nodded ~
I hold the doors for her to walk first. When we were inside, I let her choose the bed. After she decided which would be hers, she sat on it and looked at me with still the same shy expression on her face.
- Are you alright? ~ I asked in care way, looking at her face and bandages on her knees ~
- I fell over when I was running in the forest. ~ she said quietly.
- Why were you running in the forest if you don't mind me ask?
- I-I...~ she looked at him with some sad expression on her face.
~ Hey, hey, it's okay, you don't have to tell me yet. ~ I said with understanding, look at my face, and knelt in front of her to be on her level.
- I...I was running from my foster family, I wasn't feeling comfortable there
- That's completely understandable. Well, the most important thing is that Naila found you
~ Naomi nodded. ~
-Look I know that you were having probably get through hell to be here. There are a lot of trust issues with it, but I want you to know that I will do everything to make you feel safe and cared for. I know that it sounds weird cause we have already met up, and now the whole fact that we are siblings is crazy. But I will do my best to prove that I'm worth your trust and that you can talk about anything with me. ~ I said honestly and pulled one hand on her shoulder. ~
- Thank you, I appreciate it. ~ she said with a small smile on her face.
- No problem little one. ~ I also smiled at her. ~
- You seem to be a good person.
- Well I'm trying my best
It was a moment of quiet until she spoke again :
- You know about trust issues...I'm having them because my stepfather k-killed my...mother when I was six and when my grandparents didn't wanted to take care of me I felt completely left. The municipal authorities tried to push me into some new houses but as I already told you, I was running away from them after maximum 3 months because it was something that for me was forced. So since this time I used to push my feelings away and just trying to survive...~ she said and some tears showed in her eyes. I immediately pulled her into hug and whispered some words to her ear.
After a moment I spoke to her still didn't pushing away from embrace :
- It's okey. Now you are in place where we all get each other backs and I promise I won't let anything happen to you. That pain that you had to get through it's not fair. You are just a kid and you shouldn't have experience it. But from today this pain gonna change. I'm not saying that will always be perfect but you are not alone now, alright? You can count on me even in smallest situations. I want to let you grow up as you should have this chance before. I understand that we can't always forget the past but whenever you will thinking of it, please come to me. I really know how it's like to be left on your own without family in young age.
- R-Really...? ~ Naomi asked whispering
- I truly do, but this will be story for another time, alright? Now let's just focus on making you feel rest and experience the camp, okey? ~ I asked softly. ~
- Okey. ~ she said snuggling into me. I gently get up from my knee and sat on the bed next her. She than snuggled again and I hold her tight against my chest. After a moment Naomi slowly started stopping crying but she was looking very tired. I suggested her to take a nap. When she agreed I pulled the blanket on her and shifted myself to be in more comfortable position for both of us. ~☆☆☆
Fourth chapter, 837 words.
Here take some of first moments of our most important duo in this story. I wasn't sure if it was a good idea that Noami started to opening up to him so quickly cause in the description of this book I told you that she is having those trust issues very seriously. But let's be honest. Who wouldn't take chance to told Jason about his own problems? And well fact that she seems to trust him easily doesn't means that everyone will have that way, right? Anyway. I hope you enjoy it and I have open arms for any comments 🙌
