——————-

I didn't eat inter past four days.

Riccardo is trying to get me out of my room , to eat.

But I refuse.

Every time I think about my mom , my stomach drops.

Riccardo is still trying to comfort me.

But I kick him out of my room every time he wants to talk to me.

Riccardo is in my room now , trying to talk to me but luckily, I'm zoned out.

"Aurora are you listening to me?" He asked.

I turn to him seeing him looking deep in my eyes.

"What." I said with annoyance in my voice.

He sighed.

"You've been like this for four days.."

"Yes , and I have a question. How does it feel?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"I'm matching."

"What are you matching?" He asked.

"I'm matching your energy. Does it feel nice? To see me always suffering for stupid things and now for my mom?"

"But it doesn't feel nice , does it?" I said.

He doesn't say anything.

"Why are you ignoring me?" He asked.

"My mother died. Yesterday was my sisters death anniversary. That's why I'm ignoring you for the past  four days."

He looks at me speechless but in shock.

"What? 'Did the cat got your tongue , Aurora?' " I said , imitating him.

He groans.

"For fuck sake , Aurora , don't imitate me."

"Why not?"

"Because I don't sound like that."

"I'm pretty sure you do."

"You've never told me about your sister.. I mean, you had a sister?"

"I had."

"I'm sorry."

I don't say anything but I get up and I leave my room.

It sucks.

Everything sucks.

Because, when Riccardo is nice to me I feel like he likes me or he is in love with me.

But all changed when this stupid arranged marriage came.

Riccardo is more and more cold toward me.

He hates me.

He never called me to know if Im okay or not.

It's always about him or money.

One time I asked him for food because I didn't eat.....

*FLASHBACK*

"Riccardo can you get me something to eat?"

"Didnt you eat already?"

"I didn't eat since yesterday and I'm starving myself.."

"Keep starving then."

"What?.."
