Episode 6 - Interaction

It has been 4 months since Aiden met Harmony and he's been living one hell of a life. He would constantly be picked on by different enemies. If only it wasn't for Harmony always saving him, he would probably be dead by now for sure.

"Great, another day, another torture. Ugh, I just wish I never signed up for this."

...

...

...

Help me...

"I was able to save him."

Who are you?

"He didn't know my name."

Are you okay?

"I... I checked on him."

Mama! Papa!

"He thought his parents were the ones who were supposed to save him but he misunderstood everything. I had to do it for him, to keep him from those people."

Harmony hugged her knees, she was in her bedroom, dimmed lighting with only the brightness of the moon shining through the window serving as light. She looked at her side, seeing all her torture tools and weapons. Flashbacks coursed through her memories like a waterfall.

STOP DOING THIS!

She closed her eyes tightly.

DON'T HURT THEM! THEY'RE MY-

She opened her eyes again with a shaky breath and placed her hands on each side of her head, facing down.

"No..."

...

...

...

The next morning, Harmony went to school and noticed Aiden being death-threatened by a drug lord she has dealed with a few days ago.

She aimed the gun at the back of the man's hear and smirked. "Let him go or I swear to God, I'm going to pull this trigger and you'll yourself waking up in the middle of a cemented pit."

The man and Harmony had a little bit of fight-talk but in the end, she was able to save Aiden again and dragged him in the nearest crowded area of the school.

"You should be more careful, you idiot."

"I-I know..." Aiden mumbled.

Harmony let go of Aiden as soon as they reached the perfect place of many students. Aiden tried to walk away since he doesn't have anything else to talk about with Harmony but she grabbed his arm, causing him to pause and look back at her. "Harmony?" He asked.

"Aiden..." Harmony said as she tightened her grip on Aiden's arm, she had the same bored look in her face, though. "I wanted to ask you something."

"What is it...?"

"Your parents... Where are they?"

"My parents? Um, they died."

"Died?" Harmony repeated, her eyes somehow changed emotions now. It was from bored to... Shock?

With a sudden swift, Harmony grabbed Aiden by the shoulders, glaring at his eyes. "How did they die???"

Aiden put his hands up in defense, surprised by this reaction. He looked around and saw the other students staring at them. He pushed Harmony away out of embarrassment. "Harmony, what is going on with you?"

He was about to snap at Harmony but he froze. She looked... Different by emotions. She has never shown herself look so troubled. In a fast movement, Harmony ran away.

Help me...

DON'T HURT THEM! THEY ARE MY-
