If you could see what I had inside
Would you still like me just the way I am?
But I'll keep that out of sight.
Leaning her head on the window she saw the bright moon high in the sky illuminating the streets and sidewalks where people of dark expression crowded in the shadows of the abysmal night. It looked so beautiful even if every one them were depraved.
Is Mans life bond to be always solitary, nasty, brutish, and short?
"Uhh excuse me?" A voice quipped up, knocking Melody out of her trance.
"I-I'm sorry?" The soft spoken girl answered slightly cracking voice.
Offdensen sighed and scooted next to Melody looking at her with sternness yet kindness.
"I know this is all new and unexpected. But i'm here to assure you as my only family left, that you will be under my care for as long as possible. I know I can't make you immediately happy, uh, but we can all try to make this work."
He paused for a moment looking down at his hands.
"I never knew your Dad or your Mom but i'm sure they would want you to live your life as best as you can. I promise to only help." He finished with a bit more confidence.
Melody turned her head towards to the well suited man who captured her attention with his sincerity. She never felt such comfort in a long time, hearing how he considered her parents will and feelings made her soften up a bit.
She swallowed down a knot and finally spoke, "I...promise to try also. It'll be hard for me to get used to this situation and maybe just maybe we'll be the best of cousins." Her voice waviered at the cousins part due to it being so awkward.
He looked at her and gave her a small smile and started again, "We'll discuss living with Dethklok under the same roof tomorrow about rules and regulations that I have to get across. But it's late, and extensive talking can be tiring." Offdensen stood up as the limo began to stop and the same cladded in black servants came to open the door. He helped Melody out by taking her bag as she stepped out last. Looking up ahead of her stood Mordhaus; gigantic, grim looking with color schemes of black, red, grey, and a clouded sky above that added to the magnetism of its story high floors. With her mouth agaped and hair whipping in the wind she almost didn't hear Offdensen calling out to her, beckoning her to follow him. Snapping out of it she followed him and two other servants inside the legendary house of Dethklok.
Never thought my forever home could be Like this.
