Colour And Strings

What's your name?

Uriel woke up slowly, she's in the bed now, there's a towel on her forehead, did she have a fever? She try to get up, her arm is weak, her head is dizzy and her back couldn't even hold her up and that result her falling back down but the speed of the falling into the pillow cause more dizziness and a throw up feeling.

Uriel have to stare at the ceiling for a good 5 minutes, she wondered in the time, who this man could be, the owner of this house, why would he keep those things?

Just remembering made Uriel feel a rush in her throat so she just try to get her mind off that by singing, after a song or two, she feel a bit better but still watery eyes, cold feet and cloudy mind.

"Hey, nice singing, may want to keep quiet tho, dry mouth doesn't help your situation." Uriel turn round to found the man standing at the door way.

"So you feel like eating?" He asked.
Uriel didn't answer, the animals she saw were killed in a inhuman way, torturing to be blunt but who in their right mind would do that.

Even tho she feel thankful to the owner but she still got this part of her shouting at her to run away and get someone to handle it.

"I'm sorry about what you saw yesterday," the man said, almost like reading Uriel's mind, "I admit I took awhile for your food and I apologise for it but please, finish the drawing before you go,"

"Why do you need me to draw that badly?" Uriel asked, "You got a whole room of art, what could you possibly want from me?"

"It's personal reason but please just do so,"

Uriel didn't ask anything, she just gives a confuse look and nod.
"Can I at least get your name" Uriel asked.

".....it's Eric, Eric Adrelean" the man answered.

.....the eternal ruler from the forest...what a name (it took me ages to find a proper name on Google so it may not be true😅)

"I see, it's...nice...to meet you, Mr Adrelean" Uriel force out the sentence and turn away facing the window.

She feel in danger, scared, nervous, lost, confused and all of them is messing up her mind making her hard to think straight.

"I will leave the food here, please get well," and with that he walked out again.

Uriel look back to the room and it seems the food is left on the desk beside the bed, it's a good thing since Uriel can't move much.

It's fruits, toast with butter and grape juice, at the side there's a note, Uriel picked it up to read.

Use this room however you like, it's for you specially and as an apologies for what you've seen.

That's all it says.

Uriel feels guilty, she was the one who wonder around when he told her to stay where she is, she wasn't really that starving back then.

It was her curiosity that lead her to this, why should Mr Adrelean apologise?

Uriel eat up the food, it's impolite to leave the food someone give you plus it's wasting good food and that's one of the things Uriel wouldn't do.

Even though she still feel sick, she got up and slowly ate the breakfast that's prepared for her.

Sure she could have eat it when she's better but who knows when that will be, despise what happened, nothing has changed the fact that she own Mr Adrelean a lot, that necklace is almost everything to her.
