CHAPTER 51: CROWN of a MISTRESS?
Theo did not leave after lunch but stayed and chatted with the older woman. I locked myself in the bedroom, but mama knocked on me. I couldn't say no when she asked me to send Theo downstairs. I want to reason he is not a small kid anymore to lead him until by the door. But of course, I can't show this rudeness in front of mama.
Silence indeed can be deafening. No one attempts to say a word when we are inside the lift. Gladly this only took a short time, and we arrived at the ground floor.
"I'm going now, Nik."
Theo said when we reached the lounge of this apartment building.
"Okay."
But Theo hasn't left yet; it seems there's something he wanted to say.
"Nik, I know you're still mad at me. Even you won't forgive me, but I'm sorry if I lost control when we were in the hospital."
