#Chapter226
Silence
BASH
I can still remember the hissing sound of the bullet passed through the air, and that terrifying sound pierces my ears, then there’s that moment of silence that is more horrifying.
I despise silence these days. It’s deafening, and now all I can hear is the ticking of the clock on the wall.
Ranjiv left my place about half an hour ago. Trinity hasn’t said a word until now. I know she heard everything that I was talking about with Ranjiv. She’s just looking at the copper-colored wall in my kitchen, and she’s so drowned in her own thoughts.
/"Tri, please say something. I know you heard everything we talked about earlier./" I lean my elbows on the countertop, and she reaches out for my hands, squeezes them, then lifts her chin to give me a tight smile. I bring her hands to my lips, kissing them.
/"I was worried hell about you, Trinity./"
