Dylan decides to reach for Gibbs out of his boredom. But the door bell rings and the rebortic voice announced that it's his mother. The door opens automatically and she came in, watching her son sitting on kitchen counter alone. The darkness of house with pin drop silence hurts her deeply. Pain shows on her face as she sits besides Dylan. He neither greets her nor he acknowledged her presence. She touch his face kindly and softly as if she put pressure he would disappears.
"Dylan..." she says in a voice that breaks every sensible person' heart.
"How long you plan to stay angry with me? Dylan... She has already dead... She is gone... But why... Why are you doing this.... To us... To yourself... Dylan we do want to protect her that's why we brought Lena here with us, to our family... She is gone for forever already.. I've lost her but I don't want to lost you too.. It hurts Dylan.. Deep down it hurts a lot.. "
His mother keep saying things that no one say.. She keep crying...
Dylan opens his eyes and look at the woman in front of him. At first she didn't acknowledge her death at all. She has gone thin and weak.
" Mother.... You don't have to say this. " Dylan grab her cold hand in his both hands with gratitude.
" You did your best to raise us mommy." upon hearing this she brust into tears. It was exactly a word that Dylan never says to her but Lena always called her mommy.
" Up high in Heaven, Lena won't want you to resent your self."
Perhaps it was effect of wine that cause him to say these words as if her death never affects him.
"Dylan I'm sorry.. If it wasn't for me she might never have to go there.. Then you after her."
Now she was saying thing that recalls that night's incident that none other dare to say in front of Dylan.
Dylan feel pain. Something inside of him start to panic. His mother didn't say more but grab his arm and leans on his shoulder.
" Whenever I come here Dyaln. I see her in you. I see her smiling in this house." and she stand up. Before going out of house she say
"Come home sometime, they are missing you." and she left.
Dylan didn't say anything nor did he move. Very soon the house again like silent water that never make any sound. Dylan find himself in a state that resents the silent house. He again pick the second bottle of collection and start to drink it. The panic inside of him worsen and arose to it's peak as he drink the last glass of wine. The house hunted him. It hunted him the most.. The panic hunted him. The silent house hunts him. The lavender pot in kitchen hunted him. But what cause then to become hunted to him... Perhaps memories..
The sound of car moving outside his door fill the house and it make the house less hunted to him. Ho changed into black colour clothes and come out. His destination for tonight is house of Gibbs again. Just across the Crossroad a little bit away from headquarters.
