Chapter 190 - His Reminder



The muffled cried of those who were getting tortured filled the warehouse loud and painful that anyone hearing it will feel the fear and terror they felt from the maltreatment they were facing.

Anna glanced at the bedside table and it showed that it was already midnight and Steve was not back. She expected him to return and apologize for breaking the screen of her tablet.

She also wanted to know why he was so angry with her. Her sister not very connected to him for him to have such a reaction to her sister\'s return to the palace. When she could not resist the drowsiness that clouded her mind, she finally fell asleep.

Hours later, she heard the door open and she heard his footstep as he walked around the room. she remained still expecting him to sit beside her on the bed and pat her head like he always does but he walked into the bathroom and that was  exactly when he patience ran out.

She got up from the bed hastily that she felt dizzy from the sudden movement. She wore her soft fluffy clogs and went into the bathroom without knocking to announce her arrival and walked to the shower cubicle and slide the door open angrily.

The site that greeted her was not the site she always admired due to his well-toned body but this was very different. Diluted blood flowed down from his body. He also had a bleeding wound in his abdomen.

When his cold gaze met hers, she was so shocked that she could not hold back the scream that escaped her lips. "What is this? What happened to you?" she asked as she walked into the cubicle without removing her shoes which immediately got soaked.

"Get out!" he shouted as he glared her with the wound further bleeding down his body to the tiled floor and the color of her pink shoes got darker from the colored water it soaked.

"No I am not. I am not going to be at the receiving end of your strange behavior when you are losing all the blood in your veins. Who did you fight with? I have never seen you this way. What happened to you?" She continued towards him fearlessly.

"I said get out!" Steve shouted as soon as she received for his hand. His brushed her hand off and walked out of the cubicle and grabbed a white wool dressing coat. The woolen fabric of the coat immediately absorbed the blood.

"Who hurt you?" Anna asked as she ran after him and tried to hold his wrist but he flung her hand off.

She slipped to the marble floor of their room and winced in pain.

"I did myself. I did it to remind myself of all I lost. I did it to remind myself of all the unfairness I have suffered, of all the things that belonged to me but were stolen without pity. I will get them all back. I will get them back as soon as I can. For you and I, i must get them back. You deserve what she got and I will help you get it," he shouted as tears ran down his cheeks.

"I don\'t understand any of what you just said. I don\'t understand. What do you mean by that?" she asked him in a very confused state as she struggled to stand up.

"You don\'t need to know. let me handle it all," he re plied and went into the walk-in closet with Anna following him behind. He opened a drawer and pulled out a first aid box. Right there, he stitched up the wound himself and dressed the wound until it was certain that it will not get infected easily.

Anna had to support herself on the door of the closet. She was unable to believe what she had just witnessed. This was the first time she was encountering this part of Steve. He was so strange that she found it very hard to recognize him.

He always pampered her and treated her with so much care but he had shouted her and even threw her to the floor once in just less than thirty minutes.

"What are you staring at?" Steve was forced to ask. This was definitely a manner he never wants Anna to stare at him. This was the very way most of the kids in the orphanage stared at him, like he was not just a normal person like them or like he was a monster.

"You look so different," she said in a low hoarse whisper. "Why will you hurt yourself for me and what do you mean by all you just said?"

"I said you should not be bothered by anything because I will take care of it. Just like he is helping her, I will help you too."

"Do you care to elaborate?" she asked feeling very frustrated him his speech.

He removed the dressing coat completely and wore a pair of purple pajamas and went into the bedroom. Anna regained her strength after recovering from the bloody scene she had just witnessed earlier. She kept following him as he went to the kitchen and took a box of pills from the kitchen cabinet.

She felt angry to be ignored by him continually. She did not give up asking him all the questions she wanted to him but he did not answer her. When she felt her patient run out, she found out that she could not keep standing close to him in the kitchen with all sort of knives shining in the presence of the slightest beam of light.

She walked out the kitchen and went into the room. she changed from the lilac night gown she was wearing and wore a pair of black jeans and a white shirt. Grabbing her purse with her credit card and the keys of her motorcycle, she walked out of the room and went to door to leave until he was willing to give her an explanation for his sudden weird behaviors.

"Where are you going to?" he asked her with his hands tightly gripping her wrists that his fingers almost dug into her flesh.

"Out, until you are willing to give me an explanation that I will understand," she said as she tried hard to shake his hand off her wrist.

"Don\'t struggle much or you will only get hurt. I have had a very tiring day and I don\'t want you to begin acting out," he warned her dangerously.

She did not miss the threat in his tone and the dangerous gleam in his eyes. She flung his hand off her wrist and pushed the door open. "You are not even making effort to apologize," she told him angrily.

"I am sorry if you that is what will prevent you from leaving now," he apologized as he grabbed her wrist again. "It is too late for you to leave."

She looked into his eyes and when she saw the sincerity in his eyes and the pain she had no idea of, she relaxed. "I will go back into the apartment only if you promise me to go to the hospital to get that properly treated."

"Fine, but that will be tomorrow morning. I will go after dropping you off at school," he promised her as he led her into the apartment and closed the door behind him.

"You looked very dangerous when you taking the pills in the kitchen," she found herself saying to him when she finally changed into her night ware and returned to bed.

"I am not nice to many pother people but I will forever love you and be nice to you. I might appear dangerous never dangerous to you. What is important is that you should never look at me as though I am a monster," he said pleadingly.

Anna rolled to him and hugged him as she pressed her head to his chest. "You are free to tell me all that you are going through and all that is going on. If you don\'t tell me who will you tell?"

"I will tell you everything at the right time."

"Hmmm. I will wait until you are ready but you also have to let me in. and don\'t forget that you need to apologize harder later for making me fall," she reminded him.

"I will apologize with anything you want," he promised her with a soft whisper in her ear.

"And don\'t ever hurt yourself. If you want anyone to remind you of anything, you can tell and I will do it well, okay?" she asked rubbing his bare arm.

"Sure. Always remind me that there are a lot of things that are ours and that I must not forget to get them all," he told her quietly.

"I will remind you. You also owe me an explanation. I will patiently wait for it," she promised him.

As Steve closed his eyes to sleep, his mind went to how he was ruthlessly abandoned in the orphanage home by his parents along with a little girl.
