Sweet Dreams: Be a Cinderella Romance

episode 66

 

Max accompanied me on my long night .in an uncertain mood .he accompanied me on the balcony in front of my room, enveloped me with my warm pink blanket . I coiled in it sitting facing the expanse of the sky full of stars. . The old rain did not fall again , making some of the trees I passed to my grandfather's house and the one seen from my balcony was yellow with a distinctive orange tinge mixed with the green shoots of the newly grown trees

 

Max disappeared for a moment and shortly came with a glass of my favorite hot chocolate . I accepted it with a flat look..

" there's a lot of things I want to talk to you about, Max, but I always don't get the time . . "

Max took a sip of his coffee and didn't chim in on my words .

 

" how's mom doing? " i asked to look at her with my puffy eyes . It felt really uncomfortable because it made it hard to see her normally

" well . "he said briefly "there is nothing to worry about "

" i know you've returned from America a month ago . "

Max glanced at me briefly . whereas I .. my gaze was still in the same place .. looked up at the sky .. seeking a defense of my being

" i know I'm not a priority in your life, Max .. Thank you for giving everything for me. School, residence, social status . "I'm not continuing my words

" you're priority, Freya .. "

" but you didn't even see me. when you came back ... "

" i wanted to but I couldn't ." he said flatly and I raised my voice

" what makes you can't .. What's my fault, Max ? " i said I started crying again

" i'm sorry Freya. There are so many things I can't tell you "

" repeatedly you say that, Max . am I really nothing ? is it true what you said 5 years ago before you went to America? '' I was full of emotion

Max bowed . sat by folding his elbows and resting on his feet

" it's Freya's night .. Let me take you to rest inside. It's so cold outside it's not good for your health "

Max crouched down in front of me looking at my bent face sitting hugging my legs and I put my head on my knees.

" Freya .. hey ." she said in a slow voice "let's get up "

I turned my face away from her.I hid more and more in the warm blanket

" go away Max . I mean nothing to you . from the beginning I was just your prisoner. do what you like to hurt me. You won "I said without looking at him

Max breathed a heavy sigh .

" what do you want, Freya ? " tanyanya

" what do I mean to you ? "

" you're my everything" he said firmly

" i turned my face away and looked at him "

'' but why are you treating me like this ? "

" i can't say now . There comes a time when you'll find out, Freya .. "

Max clasped my hand pulling me up and driving me back to the room .

" rest .. take care of your health .. I've taken care of your school . stay here for a while . No one needs to worry "he said in front of my bedroom door .. rub my head gently before leaving

" Max ." I reflexively called him

Max stopped and looked

" i'm sorry Freya . let this go on like this . There will be a time when you can understand it someday, I would happily propose to you to be my wife "and Max just passed by without looking back

I peeked at the door of my old room. . My face heated up all over my body making me want to faint with the word he said that I just heard . I closed my door very slowly with a dumb expression and could not believe my own hearing
