Ryu had carried Owen to his room.
" Are you okay?" He asked her as he knelt down in front of her. Owen looked at him with her eyes swollen and red as she asked him." Did I do the right thing by confronting him?"
" You did the right thing." Ryu told her
" Why did you tell me that Robin's surname is Jordan." Owen asked him.
" I didn't tell you...I had expected you to know about that." Ryu answered." But it turned out that he had lied, Owen...are you okay with staying here for tonight." Owen nodded her head in response.
" But are you going to sleep."
" On the couch..." Ryu walked to the sofa. He was about to walk out of the room when he was stopped by Owen.
" Thank you." She said.
" For what?" Ryu turned around confused.
" For been there for me." She answered. He gave a nod before he walked out of the room, on his way he had bumped into Robin.
" Do you know where Owen is?" Robin asked Ryu who ignored him and completely walked away leaving Robin annoyed.
' What's up with him?...I need to find Owen and try to speak to her. What does she mean by my father disturing her family. I thought she said that she doesn't have any father.' Robin thought, he was so fustrated.
Owen looked around the room, studying the decor . That's when she spotted something...it was a picture of a young boy with a girl they hugged each other as they laughed.
That young boy seemed to have this strong resemblance with Ryu... when it comes with body stature, could it be.
It was Ryu, he looked so handsome when he was young, Owen wondered how he would look like presently now.
She kept the picture, and that's when the door opened. Ryu walked in with a bed sheet and some pillows. He quietly started arranging things but was feeling awkward with the way Owen was looking at him.
" What are looking at ?" Ryu asked without turning back.
" You." Owen answered.
" Why are you looking at me like that?" He finally asked.
" Nothing just admiring your waist line." Owen lied with a cheekish smile on her face.
Ryu didn't say word and concentrated on what he was doing, While Owen continued staring.
" Ryu." Owen called after few minutes of staying mute.
" What?" Ryu responded.
" You are my best friend from now on." Owen said.
" I don't want any friend." Ryu said but got no reply he frowned then he turned around only to see that Owen has already fallen asleep. He shaked his head with a sigh as he walked up to the bed and pulled her up to the pillow and used the duvet to cover her.He was about to walk away but Owen held his hands as she asked him.
" Can you not sleep on the couch?"
" Where do you want me to sleep then?" Ryu asked, Owen adjusted a little then she patted the space left with a cute eye, that not even the devil can reject.
Ryu removed his shoes then he climbed the bed and layed down beside Owen with his back facing her, Owen frowned then she hugged Him!.
" Don't ever leave myside even in death...Ryu." With that she dozed off.
While Ryu smiled as he whispered" I won't leave your side Zaporah not even in death!"
