Chapter 6 - knowing each other but don't we already

Rían

am I dreaming? someone wake me up, she's here... she's...here!!!... someone else is at my house...my house won't feel empty at least for today...haha

she's here in my house. it's not been long but it seems like she should have always been here. this is where she's meant to be.... right besides me. Now this home feels complete and comfortable for me

.....

he sat down and waited for her.

she came around and he asked her to come along with him,

"what is this place"

"my movie center, let's watch movie"

"you have your own movie center"

"yes. tommorow I will show you how amazing my house is, I will take you on tour"

they watched a movie and he saw her laughing at one of the scene that he said out loud

"it's nice having someone else around"

after the movie they sat outside to look at the stars

"oh I am really happy today, I get to sit with someone to watch the stars and I won't be talking to myself. let me get us some drinks.

...

"why is a teenager living alone"

"I made a mistake"

"and where's your parents"

"in your city"

"and they allowed you to live alone"

"I have been living alone for the past three years"

"why"

"because of an incident, I can't forgive myself"

"why don't you go back"

"that person won't forgive me and that will hurt too much, knowing she's there but I can't get close"

"do you plan to ever go back"

"only if she forgives me, then I will be able to forgive myself or maybe if I find the courage to face her. I just hope she realize soon that I am very sorry for what happened and what I did, I was selfish"

"but are you ok here alone"

"actually no I am not, I want to be with my family and her too, after all I am just a teen... but thinking as a teen who got the chance to freedom I would say yes, I have fun, except I miss her a lot but now that she's ....

"who?"

"let's not talk about it anymore please"

"ok"

"so why did you choose me as your fiancé"

she narrated the whole story and how she came up with that idea

""wait what?!!!!! you thought I was your savior? which part of me screams savior? me!!! the police here don't like me. I visit them more often than I do my books for a high school student, and they love me for my presence which is actually weird but that place is like my second home"

"yeah I realized that too late"

and they laughed

"are you tired and sleepy" he asked

"funny enough I am not''

"are you afraid I will do something to you"

"I won't lie about that"

"you seem energetic, let me get us some snacks and let's talk more"

they talked and laughed about few things

Rían paused for a second and stared at her and said

"you are really beautiful"

Aileen avoided his gaze

"now that I think about it, how did you know my name?, you calling out my name and I Don't remember saying my name, so back there how did you know my name? have we met before"

"no! i heard your name from the police. the truth is I saw you with them and witness it all and just when I wanted to leave you came up with your act, so I heard your name from the police"

"ok"

"ok how come you speak their language so effortlessly" he asked

"I wouldn't say effortlessly, if only you knew how long I have prepared for this trip"

"ok"

he stared at her neck and said

"it's beautiful....that thing on your neck"

she covered it with her hair with sadness in her eyes

"why are you covering it"
