19. Looking Forward

YILEYNA

A few hours had passed since Charlene had come, and Theon had once again become the quiet, cold, stoic, arrogant jerk he always was when we weren’t alone.

Charlene had helped organise the stuff whilst Theon had stood outside the apartment, leaving the two of us alone, but with the door broken I knew he could hear everything.

She had been so upset with what happened and refused to believe my parents would do such a thing

Goddess, I loved her. She wasn’t just saying it to appease me, she genuinely believed it. I just wished her father also realised his friend would never do that to him.

“Are these are all for donating?” Charlene asked, pointing at the sacks I had stacked to the side.

“Yes.” I replied, feeling a wave of sadness wash over me as I looked at one of Mom’s dresses peeking out.

“You are doing exactly what they would have wanted you to do.” She whispered softly.

I nodded, getting back to brushing up the broken crockery.

“Are you ok, Yileyna? I mean obviously not… but…”

“I’m fine, things happen.” “I heard you were taken to the hospital today…” I tensed, my heart thumping, did that healer tell everyone about Theon or her assumptions? I hoped not.

“Yeah, I’m ok though.” I glanced at the door.

Charlene seemed to click on and she nodded.

I’ll tell her about Theon, just not when he could hear our entire conversation.

“Theon!” Charlene called.

My heart skipped a beat, wondering what she wanted. He stepped inside, giving her a cold glare.

“What?”

“Could you fix the door please?” Charlene asked with a small smile, although it didn’t reach her eyes.

I guess there were things we both needed to talk about. It wasn’t like her not to be so warm towards him.

“I’m not a builder, nor your servant. Don’t call me for unnecessary things.” He was about to turn when he paused, glancing back at me. “The Alpha wants to see you in an hour.”

I nodded, my stomach sinking. I was going to request a meeting today, but for him to call for me… I wonder what he wanted to say…

“It’s going to be ok, Dad does not blame you.” Charlene said confidently.

“Hmm. I hope so, I didn’t think he’d blame Dad either.”

Our eyes met and she walked over to me, giving me a tight hug.

“One day, the truth will be revealed, and Dad will feel guilty.”
