Mimi was the first person Arianna saw when her eyes opened and her throat felt parched. She wanted to demand water but her gaze roamed across the room searching for a particular person and when she didn't see him, her heart began to pound loudly in her throat, hoping to God that it wasn't what she was thinking.
A sense of unease filled her, there was no way Elijah could have attacked Marcel, right? Nothing happened, she told herself when though her heart continuously beat faster.
So she summoned the courage and asked about her boyfriend and Mimi came to sit on the edge of her bed. Now Arianna thought about it, she was lying on her bed instead of Marcel's. If Marcel was here, he would want her in her bed, not here.
"W-where is... Marcel?" Arianna swore that she would stay strong and wouldn't waver, yet her voice still broke off in the end especially when she saw the tears forming in Mimi's eyes and her sympathetic look. God, this can't be happening.
