Two a company, third a crowd
Frost's POV
I know Evergreen, I know. You are not fond of this newcomer. You've tried to hint me this in every way possible, but I've pretended like I haven't understood them. It's not her fault. Neither is it yours.
From the moment we've arrived at our apartment, you're acting different. Terribly different. You didn't empty the vase at the living room table, nor did you wrinkle your nose at the wilted flowers - as you've always done. You did not push open the windows, allow the fresh air inside or complain about how dingy the house was smelling. You even forgot to pluck the keys out of the lock at the door, for heaven's sake !
But think about this Evergreen, how could I leave Mauve out on the streets at that hour. And dropping her off at that local bar u say ? It's our fault that we crashed into her, our fault that she's injured, I wasn't out of my mind to not give any sort of compensation. You've always loved visitors, why do you hate this lonely girl ?
She will go away tomorrow morning. But please Evergreen, don't sulk every second. You look horrendous. Each day you fall asleep as soon as we hit the bed, but today I can feel you are wide awake.
Mauve's POV
The apartment is huge! But I do feel insecure. After all, they are strangers whom I've met few hours before. What had I been thinking when I was stumbling across the highway ? I can't recall anything, no matter how hard I rack my brains. I also have a rucksack with me. Frost said it was lying a few meters away from where I got hit by his car. It belongs to me, my senses tell me that. There's a notebook inside, my journal. I am flipping through the pages. The last entry is three days ago. I have it scribbled, in a hurried, rash pace.
Evergreen is a nice girl. I do understand she's been annoyed by my sudden stay. That's natural. They are a happy duo. I heard from Frost that they'd taken a vacation to some snowy mountain. After dinner, that's what we were talking about. This guy is so cordial, so welcoming. Evergreen had kept safe distance all throughout and after a while had gone to their room announcing that it was bed time. We talked for a hour even after that. I will have to go away tomorrow morning. Mom,Dad, I miss you all. Why the hell did I leave home, out into this blatant world ?
