Vaire's House

Senseless bickering. That’s what kept on Ciara’s head for several days. She didn’t know who was to blame and who had the right to be angry. One thing was clear none of them were willing to start the conversation or apologize.

After that day, Ciara no longer saw Scott at home. He always went to the main base early in the morning when she wasn’t awake, and came home when she was asleep.

But even in his anger, he always left a portion of breakfast for her and put it on the dining table. And even though she was mad at him, she still ate his food and smiled bitterly while looking at the kitchen and imagining him cooking.

She missed talking to him in the kitchen.

A week has passed. And today was the day of the Silver Blood Moon event.

This morning, after eating the breakfast Scott had prepared, Ciara stepped glumly to the main base. The main team was in the office. She could hear them as she walked by. She resisted the temptation to come in and greet them just so she could see Scott’s face.
