《Crazy》22: Trust

"Night." He said before leaving the room.
I think he realized it too.
Things were changing between us, he wasn't acting the same way because he found out that I did nothing wrong...but he's acting as if he isn't bothered by my company.
To think that over three months ago I was scared of this man and now I was laughing and thanking him. What the actual hell?
I laid down and looked at the ceiling. The paint was chipping. Falling apart. Just like I was. Now I don't feel as horrible as I used to. I do have this horrible pain in my chest when I think of my father. But...I don't hate being alive anymore.
This place is growing on me.
I'm learning to live here until either he kills me or let's me go. With the way things have been going lately I hope it's the latter.
Then for the first time, I fell asleep without having to do my routine.
It was good. It felt good.
"Get up, lazy ass." That was the first thing I heard when I woke up. It wasn't the sound of the rats being too close to my ear.
"What's going on?" I rubbed my eyes. I just slept the most I ever have in this place.
"I'm moving you." My eyes snapped open real quick when he said that.
"What?" My mouth was slightly agape.
"You heard me, now get your ass up." I couldn't move did he really say that?
"What did I say!" He screamed at me and I jumped out of my thoughts. I quickly got up.
"Why?" Why the fûck was I questioning him is a better question.
"Do you prefer to stay here?" I shook my vigorously.

"I just--you trust me?" His head snapped to mine.
"No. I've never trusted a single person in my life. I don't trust you."
"Then how do you know I won't run away?" My head tilted to the side as I watched his reaction.
"I have cameras installed everywhere--"
"So?"
"I know when you try to escape. If you do, I'll kill your father. And trust me I want to."
My eyes instantly became blurry but I didn't shed a single tear. Not in front of him I wouldn't.
"You leave. He dies." And here I thought this guy was human. Instead he is still the monster that he was four months ago.
"Understood." I told him with my head down.
He led me to my new room. I didn't even look around I just sat down on the bed and tried to calm myself down for hours. I didn't want to shed anymore tears.
Crying doesn't solve anything, it just makes me weaker in his eyes.

I kind of want to rewrite this chapter in his POV. ;) should I ?
P.S.

Berserker- Crank Wars
Nearly 500 years have passed since the so-called apocalypse where souls dominated their control over the human vessels and grew into fierce monsters. A small frail kid saved humanity from getting wiped out of the face of the earth through his strangely powerful and unique techniques and taught them to the humans that followed him. He became a legend and humans developed special powers called cranks from his teachings. Humans couldn't procreate anymore. A very few thousands of last generation humans that remained or stayed alive by becaming crankers now constitutes the only humanity left on the planet. And they should continue to keep levelling up their cranks by slaying monsters and siphoning their souls to stay immortal and most of them tend to form teams to increase their odds. Everything was wrist-slittingly boring like that until one of those teams went ahead and mistakenly awakened the legend kid from his deep, and sound slumber. --------- One Chapter @Everyday -------------------- Unfortunately, I don't own the cover. I found it on Pinterest. And edited it a little.

Ashen Reign
In a dark & psychedelic world the tribes of this land tread pace with gods & muses, alive in course of their thoughts. A promising oracle, Azarra, is sworn to a life of seclusion and severe vows of chastity for communion with the fateful powers that marked her. When an upstart warlord imposes on her shrine and forces her to break those oaths, she inverts a sentence of death and disgrace into one of ambition & retribution. Proclaiming her son as the incarnation of their pantheon's progenitor, Drakkon. Azarra shapes this child, borne of unwanted union, into a tool of vengeance against all who wronged her. Swathing Drakkon in illusion of deification, she casts him as a Living Light to set her foes aflame. The cult they cultivate comes to ordain a new Aeon, a reign of Thunder. But the fiery storm of their imperium falls as rain of ash. (Fantastical elements inspired from Greco-Roman & Germanic/Viking influences in a fictional setting of war & woe.) Cover art & design by Lyria Key. Title font/logo by Dark Saturnus Eventually aiming to release as amazon paperback and kindle e-book. May conjure up a discord and donation link. But for now hoping to generate some interest and entertain as many readers as the work reaches & speaks to.
