Chapter 114

• Two weeks had passed by since my mom last came home. She stayed at the hospital, walking day and night while I stayed at home with Elias and Aiden. I was always in my room, with the door shut and blasting some music through my ears, reading and sleeping.
• The only time I went out was whenever I wanted to get food. Elias on the other hand, stayed in his room always too while Aiden remained the balcony man. Throughout my stay there, I made sure I limited anything that would lead to an unnecessary conversation, especially with Aiden.
• One day, I decided to step out of my cave and I went to the living room and sat, switched on the TV. Like a monitoring spirit, Aiden came downstairs and walked quietly, and sat down.
