Assassin From Hell

~12.The Reason Why~

Ten minutes later and my two bags have been packed along with some of the things Father has given me to complete the mission. My small bags sat at the foot of my now old bed as I waited for White to guide me to my new room.

He said ten minutes. It had been ten minutes and thirty seconds and he isn't here. Sighing, I started to bring my bags with me outside the room. When I pulled the door open, there stood White, at a mid knocking position.

"Wow. I didn't expect girls to be out this early," he remarked surprised.

"Well I'm not like normal girls," I retorted to him.

White murmured something that I was not able to catch. "What," I asked him.

Dodging my question, he quietly directed, "Follow me to your new room." Then he walked along the halls in a long pace.

Passing through many corridors and another flight of stairs later and we arrived into a hallway that may be our rooms. This small hallway only has two room. One door on each side and a center path way leading off to somewhere else with dark wooden brown doors blocking the path. White stopped right next to a door and waited for me to catch up to him.

I arrived next to him which gave him to the cue to start to speaking. "This is you room," he grunted. "There were no other available rooms with anything up to standards so you're now sleeping across my room." He gestured to his room door, "Don't get the feeling that I actually care about you because I don't. I never said that I did so don't ask me for anything. Oh and you are not allowed in that room over there." He pointed towards the set of wooden doors. "Now if you need anything, ask Teresa but other than that, enjoy your room," he sarcastically remarked.

Then he headed towards the dark wooden doors and disappeared through them. The layer of dust touched my hand when I grasped the door knob. Not minding it at all, I turned the knob to face what the room ahead of me had.

The room in front of me was three times as big than the one I had before. The bed had lilac purple and white sheets with a black bed frame that raises the bed to be a couple inches above my hips. The room also had another dresser with a long vanity mirror that were both painted a dark brown to match the door. There was a book case, another bathroom, a couch with a coffee table also in the room. What really stood out was that there was a balcony added to my room. It was pretty opened spaced  and it had a perfect view of the woods in front of it so I wasn't going to complain.

   Scanning my surroundings, which were pretty openly spaced around, I started to train for a while. I started to stretch my sore legs and began.

   Leaving the mystery girl behind me, I made my way into the room past our rooms.

   What was I thinking? Letting her stay in the room right next to me and I hardly know her goddamn name. In fact, I don't even know anything about her so why would I let her move in right next to me? I need to stay focussed.

   It can never happen again. Last time, I was left broken, waiting for someone to piece me together since I didn't have the ability to do it myself but of course, nobody was there to do it. Teresa tried but there's only so much she could do so I was left there to sulk and pick myself up. The pain was very unbearable, leaving emotional and physical weakness everywhere. It was to a point where I couldn't even handle my gang for a while. If I get to close, I'll just end up the same way like last time, probably worse.

   As I quietly shut the door behind me, I started to think about the events leading up to this point.

   What is happening to me? Why am I wanting to get close to a woman I hardly know?

   I shook my head and looked in front of me. In front of me, is the reason I can't get close to anyone anymore.

   "I promise I won't let this happen again," I whispered as one tear slid down my face.

   So what or who is he talking to? Hmm.

   Well guys it's Christmas Eve so I hope you guys are spending time with family or with people you care about. If not then try to stay happy around this time of the year. :)

   How was it?
