Xavier's P.O.V
The echoes of the door slamming filled the room as I walked into my living room. Without a care in the world or the frame that was threatening to fall, I stormed upstairs into my room because it was time to reflect. It was time to seriously think about everything and anything, to open up the closed casket of thoughts, let it engulf me and to filter out my priorities in life. Because right now I am a mess. Sometimes, I even puzzle myself. Even I know I have done some harsh things in my life, but, I can't for the love of everything that is holy, understand why I am acting like this.
I locked the door of my room and sat in front of it. Clutching my head and closing my eyes, I thought about Erica and how I reacted towards her. The funny yet frustrating thing was that she didn't do anything wrong, she was merely being polite to me but I was too angry to be thankful, so I took it out on her. I don't tolerate my employees being rude to each other, however, here I am doing the exact same thing.
This is just useless. No matter how much I try to hate her, to avoid her or try to deceive myself, I always end up feeling something for her and every time I see her that 'something' increases. It is just so confusing. Here I am vowing my allegiance and my love for Sapphire, yet I'm thinking about a person I met at a restaurant. That day seems so long ago. But then, Erica isn't just a person, she is like my princess. That isn't a good enough excuse for my behaviour towards her but I can't help it. Her resemblance infuriates me even more at times, it's not her fault but I can't help it either... I just can't. But no, it was wrong of me to shout at her regardless of my personal life and I need to apologize to her for my behaviour somehow. But how?
I smiled knowing how I was going to ask for her forgiveness, yet somehow nervous.

ERICA P.O.V.
Roner truly knows how to cheer someone up, after being bellowed by Xavier and that crazy encounter with Liz, I went to him. He proposed that we go to dinner in which I instantly said yes! There is no attraction there, I mean yes, he is hot but I only see him as a friend. There also was the fact that I was hungry, but I really needed someone to talk to since Liz walked out on me. Why is everyone acting weird today? Speaking of Liz, funny how I haven't seen her all day, usually I would see her on my floor scurrying around doing errands. But, after her little slip-up, it was as if she never even existed or worked for Xavier.
I forced Roner to go to an Indian restaurant, I needed comforting and not him, so I wanted food that was to my liking. He didn't exactly like the choice, constantly whining, but I wouldn't be deterred.
As we entered the restaurant Roner thought it was time to whine again, "Well, what's so special about Indian food Erica?" He spoke dejectedly.
"Everything!!" I squealed. What was there not to like? From the spices to the soothing lassi, from the tangy achaar to the colours of the curries. Okay forget being poetic, the food just tastes so darn good.
"You, young lady, need to see a psychiatrist"
"Why?" I just love my food, it's not a crime.
"Because you're crazy! " he laughed.
I laughed with him.
"I mean how can your mood change so fast? You practically wanted to kill Xavier, and now your so happy about eating Indian food." He looked confused.
"Well Roner, my friend" I placed my hands on his shoulders, "Let's just say I'm bipolar, but in a good way, just don't talk about that ba- I mean Xavier." The thought of him was already boiling my blood.
