Chapter 42 Angry Feelings
- GENESIS
- Lunch was eaten quietly. Jordan and his mistress were seated in their usual seats, and I noticed them staring at me. Samantha looked angry after my announcement to the guards. She should be scared, but Jordan's expression was something I couldn't understand. Still, I didn't mind them, nor did I care about what they were thinking or feeling in their hearts. I had enough problems on my plate as it was. After lunch, I remained seated in that spot for some time and allowed all I had eaten to settle down. I also remained seated because I knew I had to climb back to my room again, which wasn't the best place to be because of all the scary things that had been happening, but I still had to go to my room at least to escape Jordan and Samantha and just to be alone in peace. But the pain in my foot discouraged me from getting up from where I had sat.
- Occasionally, I would look up at the staircase and look away. Each time I stared at it, it felt like it was increasing in number and stretching itself. I sighed heavily after staring at it more times than I could count and looked ahead, only to see Jordan staring at me. He was done eating as well but still sat down on the chair he was in.
