Chapter 139: Floating Emotions
The persistent ringing of my phone was giving me a headache, especially when I just finished my hoop of cries and finally sought some quiet and privacy. That was all I needed to clear my aching head that felt like it would come loose from my brain at any minute. I don’t know how long I have been in this position listening to my own cries, all I knew was the sun didn’t reflect in my room anymore, I guess long enough.
My chest had this tight pain I couldn’t endure, it kept squeezing and I thought of breathing more frequently than ever. I sighed when the persistent ringing of my phone brought me back. I was forced to pull my phone out of my jacket pocket, it just kept ringing nonstop. I sobbed as I flipped the phone and saw the caller EMILIA. I slid the call button to answer.
"Hello?" I sobbed.
"Don’t tell you’re crying..." her usual ruffled voice sounded and I almost rolled my eyes but I wasn’t in the mood for that.
"Not anymore," I said, using the back of my hand to dry my wet cheeks, I really need to blow my nose. It made my voice sound so sour and each sniff was a headache. Great!
"I take it going back home didn’t go well"
"What’s the blood oath all about?" I bluntly asked, eager to get more answers, Emilia was the only one that could give me that. The answers that I seek.
I heard her sigh. "Seems like they let you in on that"
"Please tell me" I sighed hoping she won’t drag on it, I wasn’t ready for a drag topic.
"Well whatever you heard from the witch guy or your aunt explains it all, I’m guessing you need more info for that" she mused, I nodded which was stupid of me. "Fine then... the blood oath was like a pact made between my family, yours, and the Hathaways"
"The peace treaty"
