~~Mopey chapter is really short LOL sooooo sorry for the feelz
Chapter Forty Nine
Rowen had put his head phones as he caught up on his reading. He also didn't want to hear what Ryo and Leea were doing. He had seen Ryo catching glimpses at the golden girl, but he didn't expect her to reciprocate anything but he guessed that she was the kind of girl who liked it when the guys made the move.
The book was boring to the say the least, he felt he hadn't felt the same for about his studies since they got back from the nether realm. That's why he decided to take some time off from school to regain whatever his motivation was before. He still hadn't called his father either, which was a heavier task on his mind than it should have been. The words blurred, and he rubbed his eyes which hurt a lot anymore.
He felt the a cold breeze from behind him, and he looked back. The bedroom door was open. Had he left it open? He didn't remember doing so, but then again he had been paying much attention. He was sort of glad Sage was off meditating, he might have scolded him about being neglectful. He got up, pulling out his head phones from his ears and went to close it.
He came back to sit down and starred out the window. The sun was heavy in the sky, and would be setting soon.
He reached for his headphones.
Rowen...
He paused as he the cold breeze run through his hair again. It almost felt like hands. He was gonna turn around, it sounded so much like her voice. Was he starting to go crazy?
...don't turn around. I don't have long.
He felt the cold run down his neck, "Hoshi?"
Yessum. Don't turn around, love.
He felt the chill run up his spine and soft touch on his ear, he leaned back. He wanted to turn around, but he dared not disobey her request.
I'm still here, Ro. He heard her voice quiver, I'm not gone yet. I just want to let you know, I love you. I have one request though...
"Anything," he said softly.
Don't hurt Baroness.
"But she..."
I don't care...she will lead you to me, but you have to keep her alive.
"How could I..."
He waited for answer but nothing came and he looked back. No one was there, and he rubbed his head. Was he going crazy? He had to be. He leaned over in his chair, and rested his elbows on his knees. He felt warm tears run down his face and he buried them in his hands. He missed her so much. The way she tucked her angle bangs behind her ear, and smiled up at him with her stiff smile. The soft cherry blossom scent her soap made her smell sweet when he embraced her. The way she would caress him when they cuddled after sex. How her scars felt soft and waxy when he embraced her in a deep kiss. How hungry she was for his kisses. He silently sobbed wishing for the touch of her skin again, ad then realized she was trying to encourage him to keep going. He felt his transformation orb light up, and his virtue glowed on his forehead. He had to have wisdom in all this.
