Daphne Rosen POV

He looked up to me he stopped eating and stared at me with concern evident in his eyes

He took my hand
" Daph you okay" he gently asked

As I nodded

He stayed a bit silent

Nervous level kicked in too . As I tried to blink off those memories

Living in orphanage can be hell
Or maybe it was just for me and Lara

I gulped again , took a long breath but in vain I can't take it off , maybe I need some more time get over this

Godd it's been years and this still haunts me

" I am sorry daph " he asked , his eyes never leaving mine

As he got up from his seat and sat on his knees beside my chair

" It's okay , it's nothing" I smiled

And I was successfull in hiding my tears

" No I messed up our time I am sorry "

He caressed my cheek

I needed air I need some time alone but he was soo comforting

No I don't wanna break down infront of him

I wanna cry , I wanna cry soo hard

" Ehh I...." I stuttered
Ohh shit no no no

Lump formed in my throat , I am milli seconds away from crying

No..........

" I'll be back " I said as I got up

I walked soo fast towards my room as I heard divon screaming my name behind

But I was fast , I strode and closed my door , and locked it

I silently cried , I shouldn't make any noise , I told myself that , as tears pooled down , I sat on my back rested on the door as I sat their , my knees facing to me as I wrapped hands around my knees , dipping my head down I was choking silently , I don't want him to hear it .

I heard divon calling me other side of the door , I felt him sit down on the other side , as he called my name
Apologising me , it wasn't his fault

It was me who was weak

" Daphne please open the door , please let me in " his voice filled with worry , fear , guilt and hurt

I closed my mouth using my hand as I held back a chok , I didn't wanted to cry loud

I wanted to be strong , strong enough to live the past

I know I can't forget it , but I should try to live with it

I remembered Lara's voice as she said me one day , her voice ringed in my head
' don't let your past effect your future self , don't forget what happened but try to live with it , you can't change your past but you can make a better future , let it go'

Then my nerves calmed down , as my racing memories stopped , my muscles relaxed

I heard Divons voice again

" Daphne please let me in " it was filled with pain

I wiped off my tears as I took three long breaths , yeah everything is fine now , I am okay , I am more than just being a cry baby over the past

Their are many people who faced worst than me , but they are happy , they have moved on

I can do this too
Yes

I took some time to calm myself down

As I took another minute to unlock the door , so he could come in

I closed my eyes and opened the door

As within no time he grabbed me as took me in his comforting embrace

I can feel his hard breathing

" Daphne oh my " he sighed as he held me closer
And pulled me closer as if it is possible

Numerous apologise left his lips as didn't let me go

" It's okay we won't talk about this now " he said

I wrapped my arms around him
