Noah
I used my fingers to clean my eyes as I sat in Rose's room. I made no attempt to leave the palace that morning, I had to protect Rose at all cost, even if my mother didn't want to.
I was reminded about Ashely and throughout the night, I called severally but she never picked up and I hit my leg Again the chair I was sitting on as I expected Daniel to be back by now.
What was he doing? I wondered.
I heard Rose stir in her sleep and I edged closer to her, pulling the chair along. My eyes traveled down to the bandages on her arms and chills ran down my spine as I began to wonder, why she did that to herself.
She opened her eyes finally and I reclined in my seat as I watched her sit up and yawn.
"Do you want to die? Is that what you wish for, Roselina?" I asked as I looked into her eye.
She turned her gaze away from me and muttered, "I was just tired."
