Ronin (22)

“Sounds a bit familiar.”

I think out loud, feeling
a little uneasy.

“Oh really?” Ronin asks,
intrigued, a small smile
playing on his lips.

“Yes…..” I reply, wishing
Ronin would stop staring
at me.

His red eyes feel
as if they’re drowning
me.

I want to ask so many
things yet I feel so
s  c  a  r  e  d 

to do so.

Before I can find
the words to speak,

Cassandra exits from the
kitchen with a tray.

She serves us a delicate
meal: cooked salmon with
steamed green beans and
loaded mashed potatoes.

For drinks, we can choose
between water or red wine.
