I carefully picked the items he destroyed from the floor. I got the garage can and disposed of them. It’s the only way to distract myself from the pain I’m currently feeling. The guilt eating me up.

Guilt from disappointing Tovia and guilt in realisation of the fact I’m currently causing Stefan pain.

Calling Sharon was not an option and neither was sleeping.

After I cleaned up the place to the best of my abilities, I climbed up the stairs knocking on Stefan’s door. I did that unconsciously.

“Go away!”

His gruffy voice fired through the door.

“I need to talk to you Stefan. I’ll go once you hear me out.”

He didn’t reply my statement, I felt ignored and was about to walk away when I heard footsteps until he finally opened up.

His eyes were red, I averted mine unable to look at him in this state.

“You wanted to say something! Here I am, speak. I have an idea on what but let’s leave you with the benefit of doubt.”

“I’m sorry.”

I spoke in a baby voice. My voice low and shrill.

“For what exactly?”

“For prying. I’m sorry for poking into your personal lives. It was wrong of me, I shouldn’t have and I’m sorry.”

I finally met his gaze and it softened just a little.

“I swear I didn’t do it to make you feel bad or mock you. At first I thought I was doing it out of curiosity but that’s not it. Maybe at first but the real reason was because I’m trying to understand you. Deep down I know you’re not this mean person. The real Stefan is the man who’s scared of rats. Who took me to a carnival. That’s Stefan Pierce. That’s the man I’m trying so hard to bring back. The only way to do that is if I know why you you’re cold.”

I paused and took a deep breath.

“I was just too scared to ask you straight up. I didn’t want to slip up or say something out of point so I started digging. I forgot it’s your past, you’re the one who’s likely to get hurt and you did. I found out a fraction of what you’ve been through and even I’m in pain, I’m so sorry Stefan. I’m sorry.”

I teared up at the end and tears started spilling.

“I’m sorry.”

I mouthed and his face returned back to normal before he pulled me in for a hug. In his embrace, I let it all out crying hard.
