The silence stretched between them, a heavy, oppressive weight. My gaze that was once filled with love and admiration, now held a cold, questioning intensity. "Avalor." I began, my voice barely a whisper,
"Why did you have to kill my parents?" I finally asked, dropping the question that had been troubling my mind.
Avalor's heart sank. He had dreaded this moment, knowing that the truth would shatter the fragile peace that we had built. He took a deep breath, steeling himself for the difficult conversation.
"I did not... I did not kill them intentionally." He stammered, his voice barely audible. "It was an accident, a tragic and unfortunate accident."
My eyes narrowed on hearing his response. "An accident? A tragic accident that claimed the lives of my parents? I do not believe you, Avalor." I said, swiftly rising from my seat.
