The Spider's Curse

Unveiled

Everything happened so fast, in just one night...it changed everything, the way her own insights from what was happening, little did she know it was never even the whole story

It didn't even come to her expectation that he'll end up crying in her arms

Not out in despair

But in fear

The way he looked at the well, was something so sinister to her

She guided the terrified Wybie back to the house, closing his room shut, Coraline sighed in relief now that Mrs. Lovat haven't opened the door and witness her Grandson's state

She better let him rest for today....

______________________________________

She is unable to knock

Her nervousness swarmed her inside, her hands clutched tightly, having the urge to knock on his door and shifted back in reluctance, having second thoughts if talking right at this moment was even the best opportunity

To her guilt, Coraline stepped back, moving away from the door when a voice suddenly stopped her

"Coraline I know it's you...it's okay, you can come in...."

Damn, he caught her

breathing in regret, she reached the doorknob hands shaking from the memories that was still fresh from last night, it woild have been one of the those memories that she may not ever forget in her life

Coraline finally opened the door, wearing the brightest smile on her face, she noticed that Wybie was already up sitting on his bed leaning against the wall as his arms rested at the edge of the window, the black cat was already beside the him, sharing the part to comfort his caretaker, he nudged his black on the thick blankets that wrapped around them, Coraline smiled in gratitude as towards her feline friend as it nodded its head in return

She took a step after closing the door shut, however before she could even manage to reach to him, her eyes couldn't help but to stare at the mirror beside her, some shards were no longer attached to each other and large cracks could be seen, it was no longer usable from the start and from the looks of it...the pattern of it's cracks, it wasn't an accident

"How are you feeling Wybie?" She asked eventhough she knew what was the answer just to fill in the silence between them

He nodded his head and scratched the feline's head "I'm...alright..for now.. but...my head keeps pounding like hell, it's driving me crazy..."

"I see..." she whispered and stared back at the mirror in curiosity as tp what happened to it when Wyborn sensed her frequent glances towards the particular material

"You want to know what happened to it?"

"I...I don't know..."

"I punched it.."

Her eyes grew wide towards his answer

Now that explains why it looks like it was smashed

Quickly whipping her head to look at him, Wyborn sadly revealed his bandaged arm that she had once treated before it was still badly wounded

But from the current state right now, it was healing, as much to her relief

She bit her lip and closed her eyes as she tried to restrain herself from asking him the main question

He's not ready yet...

Maybe some other time...

Or so she thought she could hold it in
