The young master's loyal servants

ch.27:closure

"You've grown so well!"My 'mother' said as she tried to hug me, but I took a step back. "What's wrong? Don't you remember us?"

Boboiboy looked between the three of us as he was becoming more confused.

I don't blame him. Afterall, I never once told him anything about my past nor did he know who they are.

"No, I do"

Sadly.

A sudden silence appeared as none of us spoke. But there were hudreds of unspoken words lingering in the air.

They might be cruel, but they aren't stupid. I've grown, an adult who knows and understand the bitter truth, not the little child who was oblivious to everything simply because they had wished to be loved by someone who will never love them.

The silence was getting more intense and I felt like the air in my lungs were stolen from me.

It's so hard to breath. My chest hurt..!

Right in that moment I saw Halilintar looking at me through the window.

H-huh?

He mouthed a sentence and never have I thought that anyone could hit such a deep spot in my heart.

'You're not alone'

That's right.. I have them and master Lucas. I'm not an unloved and lonely child anymore, I have someone that care about me.

Deep down I've always been afraid of being alone. The thoughts of me being completely on my own scared little me. Especially after my parents locked me out of the house after I accidentally broke something.. that was the moment when I realized that my parents didn't love me, that I had to earn their love.

The moment when I grew up.

"If you don't mind, we have to go to our fellow companion"I excused and was about to leave when Mr.Leoron spoke.

"May we have a conversation with you?"He asked while smiling so politely.

No.

"You may, but I'm afraid that I don't have that much time"

As much as I want to leave and never talk to them again, I still have something I want to know.

"Sweety you grew up so well"Mrs.Leoron said after we went outside to talk.

"Yes, master Lucas raised me well"I said, well aware that I'm hitting a trigger.

"Look, we're sorry that we never visited you. But you were so clingy and we were busy. We didn't want you to beg us to come back home because you missed us."Mr.Leoron said.

Of course he blamed me for it. I guess something just never change.

"I was a child. Which child wouldn't miss their parents after being seperated from for years?"

They wanted to defend themselves, but I didn't let them.

"You sent me to master Lucas with the intention of never seeing me again. I was a child but I wasn't dumb. I know that you never loved me. If you did then you would've atleast sent me a letter. It doesn't have to be a daily thing. It's enough to send me a letter on my birtdays, but you clearly never remembered it, or rather.. you never cared"

The two of them looked surprised, not expecting me to talk back.

"I sent you hundreds letters, but not once have you replied to it. I bet you even burned it before even reading it."I chuckled sarcastically. "I'm not that scared little child anymore. I'm an adult and full aware of the truth. You can't fool me, nor can you manipulate and guiltrip me anymore. We might be bloodrelated, but you were never my parents. A parents care about their child. A parents doesn't abandon their child."

It seems that I had hit a trigger, because the man I've considered as my father in past looked at me with pure anger and hatred, not bothering to hide it nor play 'nice parents' anymore.

"I can continue on for hours and the list still wouldn't end. That's how bad of a parents you are." For the first time in my life I looked at them with nothing but dissappointment in my eyes. "But holding a grudge against you wouldn't change a thing, it's just tiring and annoying. So I will say this only once. We are not a family nor am I your child. I won't contact you neither will you."

The woman I used to look up to tried to stop me, but I was quicker and left the place.

I did it! I really did it!

So why.. why am I crying..?
