Chapter 14
Day 37:
Oivhure is so dreadfully dull nowadays. He sits and whines all day and does nothing but talk about how I ruined his life. Mother and Father tell me I did the right thing, like I didn’t already know that. Of course I did the right thing. I’m not daft, that is for sure.
Day 38:
I have taken to wandering around doing nothing lately. I walk the streets, bored out of my mind. I think maybe I shall call upon my friend Rytonek. He’s very nice, and I haven’t seen him since before the whole thing with Oivhure started.
Rytonek and I are best friends. He is only two years my senior and very mature, just like I am. We used to have great fun together. His special ability being able to command a person to do anything with just his thoughts. The power of control was a devastatingly powerful one.
Although I knew Rytonek would never use his powers on me, there have been times when I felt different around him. I would do things I wouldn’t think I would do, but I just always thought of it as impulse. After all, like I said, I would never suspect him of using his powers against me, his best friend.
I will call him tomorrow,
Day 39:
I called him. We spent the day wandering around together. It was quite... lovely. I did miss Ry quite a bit. I found he felt the same. He asked to see me again in a couple of days, and of course, I agreed. He told me he had something very important to talk to me about. I was excited and nervous. I can’t stop thinking about what he has to say!
Day 40:
I feel very relieved, but slightly annoyed. I saw once again into the future. Angile decided she wanted Oivhure killed, and the council WOULDN’T DO IT. I know he is my brother, but he wasn’t ever a really good one. I still couldn’t comprehend how he could have done that to someone. Anyone. Ever. Maybe he didn’t deserve to die, that might be a little drastic, but he did deserve physical pain. Oh well. I would think of something else. Something like Ry. I was still excited.
Day 41:
I did not get a phone call from my dear Rytonek. I expect him to call tomorrow or the day after. I thought of him much of the day. i wondered what he did most everyday. It was strange to think of him doing something other than being with me.
Ry and I used to spend all day everyday together. Suddenly things changed. It wasn’t that they changed between us, it was that things changed with him. He started disappearing more and more often. He didn’t tell me where he was going, what he was doing, or when he was coming back. He started becoming vague and mysterious. Something he wasn’t before. I didn’t understand at the time, and I still don’t. I want to understand, but I am afraid to ask. However, I do plan on asking about it. When I see him next of course. I dearly hope it is soon. I think I just may love Ry more than I ever wanted. I am still young, it is not something I want nor need. It is something I’m getting though. I didn’t want it to end badly, like sweet Angile and Crennik’s story.
As I sit here I wonder how Angile and Hiyyeth will do. I believe they are meant to be together. Her and Crennik were good, but Hiyyeth and her would be even better. It might take her a long time to realize it. They truly deserved each other for their happiness. I hope they will find it together. Sincerely, I do.
Day 42:
Ry has called. We are to spend the day in glorious companionship tomorrow! I can’t wait!
