Chapter81:

I took a tiny sip of hot chocolate. My gaze was on the door. The sun was down and the evening was gnawing at me. It hardly would have been two hours, before I reached here. An uncomfortable feeling settled in my stomach. I wouldn't have done it against my will if it wasn't important for my mother. She has faced a lot. It's time to only face happiness for her.         For now, I'm alive. I'm waiting for my friends. They will make my stay easy here. I wasn't certain whether to come here. My mother's happiness is essential to me. I genuinely feel outcasted. I can't shift, I feel cold easily, and I'm not strong. I'm the vulnerable one.        I bit on the biscuit. I leaned forward to grab another one. My eyes were glued to the door in anticipation. I would kill them if they didn't show up. I was holding myself not to make another call. I took another bite and chewed it slowly.         Ava's face screwed up in disbelief, "Are you planning on putting on weight?" Her voice was hesitant.
