Graciella bit her lip. Subdued his gaze and tried to avoid Xavier's eyes that always managed to melt his heart. Currently he could not answer Xavier's questions.
Xavier looked towards Graciella. Why didn't Graciella answer. Does he still have doubts about Xavier's words?
"You still have doubts about what I said?" xavier asked while raising Graciella's chin to be able to see the look in Greciella's eyes, trying to analyze the feelings emanating from there. Graciella bit her lips deeper looking at the eyes demanding an answer from her.
"No," Graciella said as she shook her head slowly. Xavier just stared at the woman's face.
"Then? why don't you answer my question?"
"I have no doubt about what you said or about your request. I only doubt myself." Greciella pulls her steam in.
He doubted himself. Did she answer Xavier and stab him in the near future? she had just come out of a marriage that shackled her three years ago. After all, Graciella did not want to rashly answer Xavier's request. If this had happened three years ago, he would have nodded quickly and said yes without a second thought like when Adrean asked her to marry him. But now everything is different. You could say he was quite traumatized by all the things that smell of marriage. Three years filled with pain. There's no way she could've decided to get married so soon.
He looked at Xavier's slightly wrinkled face but his gaze remained gentle. "I have to go back to my room. I'm afraid Moira will wake up."
"Grachiella?"
Greciella stood up quickly and left immediately before she was held back by Xavier. Xavier just looked at Graciella's departure. He was sure the woman still could not accept his explanation. He has to do something.
Graciella went inside her room and immediately closed the door of her room. But he just stayed behind the door of the room and even leaned back as if holding the door with his body. Slowly his body rolled down until he sat down at the door. Greciella held onto her head which she could not currently ask to think. It feels so dead-end.
Graciella's feeling is really uncomfortable. He recalled what happened that night. That night, he was in the room alone. Because his head was dizzy after being forced to drink by Adrean. He intended to rest when suddenly someone grabbed him from behind and threw his body into his bed, even though he had time to clean himself. The room was already dim because Graciella turned off the lights, she felt more dizzy if in a bright state
The man immediately kissed her ferociously. Even without giving time to Graciella to see who she really is. The man stripped his clothes even to the point of tearing them. The treatment was so harsh and vicious. Graciella thought it was Adrean because only the man knew he was in the room so Greciella served the man's deeds.
But Graciella finally realized when she could accidentally press the sleeping light button next to her. The sharp eyes were clearly not Adrean's. But it was too late, however, that Greciella tried to push and remove her body from the man. The man kept doing his act. Although Graciella begged him not to let go of Greciella's body until Greciella fainted due to the roughness of the man.
The man's attitude was certainly different from Xavier's. Although Xavier was a little coercive, the treatment was very warm and gentle. He never forced it if Graciella didn't want to. He still could not accept that the man was Xavier even though the confession had already come out directly from Xavier's lips.
Of course he can't forget either. When she regained consciousness, it was Adrean who first found her and the man was furious with her. Why would Xavier leave her alone after doing that to Graciella? does he want to escape? but that's not like the Xavier trait he knows today? was he different? then why did he come after?
If he came back then and said he wanted to take responsibility as he is now. Maybe Greciella will easily accept it. Why should it be now? when even Greciella did not dare and believe again with marriage. Why should it be now? only that question lingered in his mind.
I don't know what God has on her, Graciella can finally just give up.
********
Xavier looked at Graciella who was in the kitchen since this morning he seemed to avoid Xavier. He doesn't even want to see Xavier. Xavier knows, this must have something to do with his confession last night.
Xavier couldn't have expected more. He ruined the woman's life. Surely this is good enough. At least Greciella didn't leave him and kept him away with Moira.
Xavier slightly smiled at Moira who was greedily eating her bread. They are currently having breakfast. Xavier was waiting for Greciella to eat together but Greciella seemed busy in the kitchen. I don't know what he's doing.
"Moira, take your mama to eat" whispered Xavier to his little daughter.
Moira who was holding a brown loaf of bread nodded briefly, "Mom, mamam!" moira's funny voice sounded.
"Yes, in a moment, Moira eat first" Graciella said. Seemed busy washing things.
Xavier exhaled slowly. He picked up his wand and slowly walked into the kitchen. Graciella saw the man coming. At first he was confused about what to do but he felt like he wanted to leave.
"I need a struggle walking this stick into the kitchen just to talk to you. Please don't avoid me" said Xavier, who was holding Graciella, who had been quick to sneak out of the kitchen.
Graciella shook her lips slightly. "I'm not avoiding you."
"But your actions reflect otherwise. Moira wants breakfast with her mother. Keep him eating."
Graciella took her breath. "I'm not hungry yet."
"It's lunch, eat it. If it's uncomfortable because I'm there. I'm gonna go."
Graciella glanced at Xavier. I don't know why it doesn't feel good now because Xavier said it. "You have to eat to eat medicine. All right, I'm going to eat too, no need to go, we'll just eat together" Graciella said straight out of the kitchen.
Xavier looked at Graciella who left him. Consciously or not, Graciella sounded more sniffy. But somehow Xavier even slightly likes to see this situation. He thought maybe later if they got married and Greciella got mad at him, the picture would be like this. Xavier must understand.
"Yeah!!!" Moira opened her mouth wide to receive a mouthful of bread from Graciella. Xavier smiled at the interaction of the child's mother. He would definitely make this his favorite sight every morning.
Suddenly the doorbell rang. Greciella slightly frowned, who's been seeing you in the morning? There's no way Stevan, he doesn't need to ring the bell, he knows the combination to open the door.
Laura is impossible. From this morning she had been interrogating him about what happened to her and Xavier last night. He also said that today the IGD is very full so surely he is looking after the IGD. He stayed up until noon, so who rang the bell?
