Mixed Blood
Eps. 47 Depression

Princess Zoya is aghast when Orion can get in there even though she has locked the door before.

With his face and hands covered in blood, a rabbit in his hand slipped apart when he saw his daughter looking at him dumbfoundedly.

“Mother.... what happened ?” he said he looked at the dead rabbit dropped by his mother while closing his lips in surprise to see the blood on his face and on his mother's hands, as well as the dead rabbit.

“Is mother... who did that to this rabbit ?” he said pointing to the dead rabbit lying on the floor near his mother's feet.

Princess Zoya shut her throat choked. He could not speak fluently and explained everything to his daughter. He didn't expect his daughter to find out that fast and of course he wasn't ready for everything.

She was afraid that her daughter could not accept her identity, she was also afraid that she would have to tell Orion her true identity at this time.

“So it's not the money vault or money vault that's in this room like I thought all along....????” he said he could not accept what he saw at this time.

“Ahh... did you really suck the blood of this rabbit to dry?” ask the girl again who still has not received an answer from her mother.

“What do you do... Why do you suck the blood of this rabbit... ?” her still-unbelieving and unsure mother did just that behind her back.

“So that's why this place is always tightly locked and there is anyone who can enter here ?” he added that he demanded his mother say a word to him with her explanation.

Princess Zoya picked up the tissue on the table close to her.she immediately cleaned the remaining blood on her lips and in her hands with the tissue.

He waved his hand to grab Orion's hand but the girl immediately ran away and exited the room.

“Wait son... Mom can explain everything to you.. Now.” yells call her daughter.

Orion stopped and turned to his mother but he who was disappointed and could not accept it ran back quickly to leave the room.

“brak..” The girl slammed the door hard and without looking back ran out of the restaurant.

He walked towards the road heading home with a feeling that could not be explained with words. I don't know what he's thinking at the moment that clearly he can't accept his mother's condition like that.

What happened until his mother had to suck the blood of an animal? who is her mother ? Is her mother not human? Is his mother a demon?

The boy recalled the incident a few years ago when he was still at Hera's grandmother's house. The little boy and the people there call his mother and himself a descendant of the devil.

“So what the citizens said at that time was true... ? so I... I am a child of the devil ?” he stopped at a tree nearby.

His legs are limp and it feels like he is not strong to walk at the moment. He felt his leg muscles instantly unable to move.

“bruk..” The boy fell down because he could not hold his weight and leaned against the tree behind him.

The boy began to shed tears feeling the sadness he was experiencing at this time. Nothing comforted him then and he buried his head on both feet to let go and spill all his sadness.

After an hour she was crying and now she was calm she was back on her feet and felt her leg muscles being moved. he again walked home with shaky footsteps realizing his identity status as a descendant of demons.

The girl immediately went inside and headed to the bathroom.

He turned the shower faucet and and sat under the shower flushing his body profusely.

Long time the girl was under shower. Although his body was already shivering in the cold but he was reluctant to get out of the bathroom. As long as his mind is not cold he will not move away from the cold shower that can cool his head and also his heart that still feels hot.

He had no idea why his mother kept the identity a secret and hid it from him for so many years. Does his mother not know how he feels ? How was he destroyed when he learned of that harsh reality?

The next two hours he came out of the bathroom after changing into a wet outfit and immersing himself in bed with a pile of pillows covering his head as he could no longer think clearly.

The next hour, he fell asleep tired of crying.

That night Princess Zoya runs and stops in front of her house to pursue Orion who may be currently depressed knowing her mother's current condition.

The door of the house was still open and it was still dark with lighting that had not yet been lit and she immediately turned on the lights to look for her daughter.

“Orion... ?!” he said he called his daughter while searching the whole house.

He heard the sound of a shower still burning in the bathroom and immediately headed there.

“The child..” he said he felt sad to see his son might become depressed after seeing himself like that and then turn off the still-lit shower.

“Orion..” call her back to find the girl and find her daughter already lying on her bed.

“You have slept apparently..” he said when he saw his daughter was sleeping with eyes that look swollen.

She became saddened to see the apparent sadness on her daughter's face that could not accept her current reality. No tears began to pour from both of his eyes.

“I'm sorry mom son.. It's not my intention to keep all this from you. I was forced to do all this because there was no presence of your father by my side to wipe away my thirst all this time.” he said while washing the tears that still dripped on his cheeks.

He saw the boy's body shivering with cold without a blanket.

“If you had known...” murmured while covering Orion's body with a blanket then went from there and headed to the kitchen to make a drink that could ease his sadness.

After his mother left, the boy turned around and wiped away the tears that had dripped out of the corner of his eyes hearing the words from his mother just now.

“Is father... who did all this and made his mother feel miserable ?” thought the boy.

Hearing the footsteps coming into his room, he immediately pulled the blanket over his head and forced his eyes to close again.

SERIATE....
