I'm watching

Chapter 28

I took a deep breath, I wanted to throw the painting across the room. I didn't want him to see it. It was a mix of dark colors in the center fading into grey. It showed how I felt like, the dark colors representing the hopelessness, taking over inside. I screamed and threw it at the door, breaking the frame. I stomped across the room and ripped it to pieces. I hated him and I hated what he had done to me. I wanted to go home. I fell down on my knees, tears slowly dripping onto the floor. I heard his footsteps coming closer, I didn't care. He hammered the door open, I stumbled back, surprised by the power he had opened the door with. I looked up at him, he looked scared and worried. "Sorry if I scared you" My voice trembling, sounding louder than it should, breaking the silence. He looked at me with relief in his eyes. "It's okay-" He looked around the room, paint all over the place, my ruined painting laying before my feet- "What happened?" He sounded shocked, I couldn't blame him. It looked like a tornado had been in here. "Oh... Uhm, I got a little bit annoyed" I whispered looking down, ashamed of what I had done. I waited for a reaction, there was completely silent. His laughter disrupting the moment, I looked up taken by surprise of his reaction. I tried to keep it in, but I couldn't contain myself and I started laughing with him. It was real laughter, I sounded like I used to. I sounded like a teen with no problems in life except at school. My laughter quickly turned into sobs, I was crying, again! I had lost count of how many times I had been crying since I got here. He kneeled down beside me, laying his arms around me pulling me closer into a hug. I resisted in the beginning, but in the end, I stopped. It felt nice, I could forget what had happened for a few seconds. My eyes slowly became heavy and I surrendered myself to the sleep, I would need it later.
