Chapter 5
Everything had cooled down now
Solis had actually decided to cook for me and Since he wouldn't let Rainn commit homicide, Rainn just sat there sitting opposite of me... Staring into my soul
Awkward was so much an understatement
Solis didn't entirely believe I was Vera and not Lucinda but Rainn? Well, he wasn't having any of it
I didn't have anywhere to go or any money on me either
I didn't think any of my cards would work here
And since Solis just couldn't leave me alone with Rainn, He let me stay at his place
He was being so unbelievably kind that I thought they were both in on it to try to make me confess or something. . .
Sure I was still scared and very alert,
Solis' presence was more than enough to comfort me
Despite the fact I didn't really trust him either
I yawned and got out of bed
I hadn't slept that good in ages
Watching as the squirrels would run around playing as they went up and down the oak tree by the house
Without a care in the world
Vera
Wish I could join them
I was startled by his sudden appearance
Infact I almost really 𝒅𝒊𝒅 join them by falling out the window
Rainn
I could turn you into a rat right now, so then you'd be able to run around with your little vermin friends
I chuckled awkwardly as slowly backed up into the bathroom door, slammed it, and locked it
I walked downstairs, Rainn had already left, but I couldn't help but eavesdrop on the conversation that had me so extremely captivated I didn't want to move any more
Solis
Look Lena I'm sorry
Solis
But can we complete our discussion later? I really need to go
？
You're not going anywhere until you tell me.
Solis
Tell you what ? huh,?
Solis
Let's speak tomorrow okay?
This time it wasn't Solis that kept her from continuing
Because she already spotted me
She screamed as she pointed her finger towards me
I covered my face hoping I would just disappear
But that obviously didn't work
Lena
It's because of her, isn't it?
Now she turned her face back to face him
Lena
What you mean "What?"! Don't tell me you've fallen for that ***** too!
Now she turned to face me again
Lena
Wasn't Rainn enough for you?
Lena
Now you want to take Solis then run away with his money huh!? Is that it!?
Saying that, she slammed the door and left
Vera
*I'm surprised she didn't put up a fight...*
Vera
*Since everyone hates Lucinda*
After a while Solis left for work
I couldn't leave the living room though
All the doors were locked
It made sense though
He'd be trusting me way too much considering "I'm Lucinda"
With my parents and friends
I let out a big sigh as I threw myself to the carpet
Vera
Why's my Life Like this??
After roaming the only three rooms unlocked; the living room, kitchen and library, I found something... Unusual. (Even though everything around me right now pretty much is) It was a book
It had black pages and white text
And gave off this weird atmosphere
I turned the first page over to read it in the living room
it looked like it was some sort of manual to operating this dimension
It was only a couple pages though... The rest were torn out but I still spent hours reading it because I knew once I was done, I'd have nothing else to do
Black Book
✦C̆̈l̆̈ĭ̈c̆̈k̆̈ m̆̈y̆̈ P̆̈r̆̈ŏ̈f̆̈ĭ̈l̆̈ĕ̈ p̆̈ĭ̈c̆̈t̆̈ŭ̈r̆̈ĕ̈ t̆̈ŏ̈ r̆̈ĕ̈ă̈d̆̈ m̆̈ĕ̈✦
Couple minutes later, I decided I'd maybe roam the streets a bit
Solis lived in a penthouse so what I did first, was to get to the top.
It took me a while since I barely know this place but when I did, It looked so mesmerizing
It was raining but I didn't mind
It brought back the best memories
And the same way it brought me joy, It did sadness, Despair
Tears started forming In my eyes as it brought back things I didn't want to remember
Even though it was freezing outside
My heart beat rapidly increasing
Then I could barely breathe resulting me to hyperventilate
I was having a panic attack
I feel to the floor
My head cradled between my knees
Crying never made it better but I just couldn't help it
So now I was on the roof, by myself, feeling like I was about to die
soon, I was hearing footsteps
I didn't want anyone to see me like that... It made me look weak.
I curled myself into a tighter ball and tried my best to roll into a corner were I wouldn't be found
I looked up to see who it was but I was far too dizzy to make out who's face it was
I couldn't really distinguish the voice either
but the pain was getting worse
I always tried my best not to remember things like these but whenever I did, I'd panic.
I stuttered as I responded to nothing
My breathing getting more and more harder to catch
？
Don't close your eyes! Are you okay!? Wake up!
a couple seconds later, all my thoughts evaporated
and everything went black
