Tell me" I Rolled my eyes at his attitude, he grabbed my both hands roughly, again shoved me to wall and kept my both hands above my head with his one big calloused hand and held my jaw again in his tight grip "Don't ever roll your eyes again in front of me" he said dangerously, because of his behavior my tears started to flow, he held my hands very tightly, I'm Sure it’s going to leave bruise. "Do you understand?" He yelled because of not getting any response from me. "I understood" I replied immediately my lips were puckering not wanting to anger him further, he satisfied with my response, he doesn't like when I don't answer him. “Now answer my question why did you went to park with him?" He asked a bit softly this time. “My English lecturer gave us assignment and made a group of 2 peoples to write it, I reached college late today, so I took the seat which was empty, I didn't know we will become partners for assignment" I took a breath in between “then everyone started to leave with their assigned partners, jake suggested to go park for discussion, but I Didn't go with him alone, I asked Samy to go with me, while

returning we caught into rain and you came" I explained everything. I started to cry, he let go my hands from his tight grip and wiped my tears, then he said "don't believe everyone petal, everyone's not good as you think". "Then why are doing this, why are you angry and shouting at me, why did you made me lie to mom" I asked him all questions which were rising in my mind. He held my palm in his hand and led me to sofa nearby, he made me sit on sofa and he sat in front of me on coffee table I was still crying. "The reason for scolding you is, you’re that so called classmate Jake he was looking at you hungrily, as if want to devour you, you are so naive that you don’t understand" then he took a pause "stay away from that ******* bastard, do you understand" he said seriously. “But I have to complete my assignment with him and he said that we will discuss about it in a cafe" I said, he looked at me wide eyed "say no to him, and as for your assignment do it on your own or ask me, I'll help you, OK “, it was so confusing why's uncle behaving like this. "But why" I wanted to know, I asked him "no buts and no further discussion on this topic, Am I CLEAR" he said leaving no room to argument. “I didn't get answer for my other questions" I reminded him my questions. But he stood up from his seat and said “come let's have dinner, you have not eaten anything" held his right hand in front of me , I placed my hand in his and did as he said, we made our way to dining table downstairs, he pulled a chair for me to sit after making sure I sat comfortably he sat beside me.While eating dinner, his shirt which I'm wearing right now is so big and the sleeves too , I rided the sleeves upwards still they fall whenever I took a bite. He was staring at me, He held my hands and started to fold the sleeves upwards neatly till my elbows, then gestured me to eat my dinner. I wanted to go home but he made it clear about it.

After dinner I went to the living room and sat on the sofa and started to watch TV. Sebastian sat on the sofa to my right side. "As for your other questions, I will answer in future" he said out of nowhere, when I looked at him, he turned his head and started to watch TV. As I was laying on the sofa, I drifted to sleep while watching TV.
