Ash's pov ;
The servants came to inform me that dinner was ready, but I felt a wave of frustration wash over me as I couldn't bring myself to eat without Elijah by my side.
"Sir, dinner is served," one of the servants said politely, bowing slightly.
"I'm not eating until Elijah is back," I snapped, my voice sharper than I intended. The servants exchanged uneasy glances but said nothing, retreating quietly to give me space.
We got back from our vacation and Elijah went to his business as usual. But I didn't, I dropped out of the drama since the bullying there was too much and my mental health was going downhill.
So after Elijah leaves for work, I'm practically alone at home.
And the loneliness was overwhelming.
It was worse than anything I had ever experienced. I had thought that I had known what loneliness was, but I was wrong.
