Tasting All My Mates

38-The Other’s Obsession

Maynard had somehow found me and taken me to the basement. He had his arm wrapped around me and my blanket under his arm. He told me the hurricane hadn’t even gotten worse yet so whatever I saw there was nothing compared to how it will be in the next few hours.

Once we arrived in the basement, I found Mr. Tripper calming everyone down.

He watched me enter late and frowned and sprinted to have a word with me.

“You don’t forget to create troubles, do you?” he glared at me but soon his glare broke because Maynard snatched his attention by responding to him.

“Don’t you see she is frightened?” the aggression in Maynard’s tone silenced the crowd that Mr. Tripper was trying to hushed down for minutes.

“Go and sit down in the corner,” Mr. Tripper pointed at the only empty corner. I passed around a quick glance and found Thiago sitting on the other side of the wall with his head resting against the wall. He was staring at us but didn’t react to my arrival. Lazlo was sitting beside him whilst Maynard and I quickly took our places at the darker corner.

“It will get even colder in a few hours,” Maynard mumbled undertone while wrapping my blanket around my body and bringing his bag closer

“Are you alright?” he continued to be concerned for me while I was blankly looking at Thiago.

Thad only one question in my mind, did he not panic when he arrived here and didn’t find me?

“Miss Omega?” Maynard gently tapped a chocolate bar against the back of my hand to get my attention.

“Thank you,” I replied to him and took the chocolate. I desperately needed some sweets to boost up my energy.

“How did you end up on the rooftop?” he whispered, steadily pulling his body closer to mine.

“I heard some cries,” I explained, “It felt like somebody was in trouble. I went to the rooftop to help the person in need but -“|| paused because I remembered what happened.

“But what?” he asked as he bent his head down to reach my level.

“But they pushed me onto the rooftop and locked the door behind me,” it hurt so bad thinking I was trying to help that person and they did that to me.
