As Avery had spoke to Roland, saying that she was fine and everything, he surely knew she wasn’t. He could hear the yelling that came from her phone from a distance, but the question was why? He didn’t want to be too concerned because it was none of his business and he was trying to stay less nosy of certain situations, but then again he was too skeptical because he knew she wasn’t being honest. As her face was still buried, she mentioned that she was glad that he did like the food. Roland didn’t know really what to think or say, but he giggled a little when she had brought up the food she had made for him.

To him, still, her being was of mystery to him and he had so many questions he wanted to ask her because of so many things that it seemed like she never wants to bring up, and plus putting his nose where it doesn’t belong. Instead, he decided because of her current state and not wanting to put her in much more worry she looked like she was already in, he saved them for another time so that when she is ready, she will tell him. Just after, she brought up that it would be best to keep away from her after today, stating that someday she would just be forgotten and disappear. When Roland heard that, exactly what she had said, he began recollecting memories of his past. Things that he had kept hidden from his mind for quite sometime had been recalled, and he realized that he had been in a predicament like this before.

He took a few seconds to realize of his hidden past, but quickly came back to reality. He realized that he too had a certain predicament like this to happen before, like one day he would just cease to exist and be forgotten over troubles from his past. He knew what that had felt like and he didn’t want to ever feel like that again, nor would he want that for anyone else. He did remember something, a certain things that had helped him over the years to get him through hard times of life and situations he wasn’t certain of. “Hey…" he said, becoming hesitant at first, but calmly and gently placed his hand on Avery’s shoulder to comfort her as he replied with something that would hopefully help her.

“Listen to me. You’re just as important as anyone else. Everyone is worth every bit of effort and life is too divine to just fade away from. You know….most of the time we learn a lot from bad things that happen to us, but for most of us we strive to make things better again and hope that we can find happiness. But you can’t find it if you give up.”

Roland grabbed one of her hands that she had to help hide herself from him, and he held it firmly to make his point and make her feel calm. “Things we don’t like to happen always happen, but we should never quit to hope that goodness can come forth and show us a better way. Don’t give up. Never give up…..even if you think the worst is yet to come. Even if it’s just a bad situation at home, don’t ever give up to hope that things can be restored for you to have better things happen.”

As Roland tried to keep himself awake, Avery came back into the main room with some food that she had made. She made it as appreciation for letting her stay with him and in doing so placed it in front of him so that he could eat it as well. Although Roland was still somewhat tired, he became surprised due to the fact that the food looked delicious, and Avery also saying that she was really good at cooking left a glimpse of hope that what he was about to eat would be very good and tasteful. “Well…..let’s see how it is then.” he said as he picked up his utensils in front of him and took a bite of the of chicken breast that laid in front of him. After a quick taste, he found it to be really delicious and satisfying to his taste buds as kept eating more of the food.

“Wow…..I mean…..this is…..really really good. Probably one of the best things I’ve ate in a while.” Roland enjoyed what was given to him and became more ecstatic with every bite he took. While doing so, Avery had said right after that she had made enough food for Steven and his parents as well, so Roland replied to what he though was hospitable. “I’m sure they will love it, plus Steven will eat anything almost so it’ll probably be gone before the day is over.”

All of a sudden, he heard a noise of buzzing that turned out to be Avery’s phone, and politely excused herself from conversation. Roland respectfully kept quiet and mouth okay to her as he grabbed his plate and went into the kitchen to finish what eat was eating. As he got to the kitchen counter and continued eating as well, he heard nothing but distorted yelling, assuming that it was coming from the phone call that Avery had going on. From even a distance, it sounded like a male voice, but then after Avery mentioning that it was her father, it made sense. Roland couldn’t really hear the rest of the conversation from being distracted from the delicious food that Avery had made, but once done he sat his plate and utensils in the sink and went straight back into the main room to join Avery, assuming that her telephone call was done and over with.

Entering back into the room, he noticed that something didn’t look ok with Avery. She went from being somewhat relaxed and more open before he left, and coming back she looked really fragile. He didn’t want to question about her business, but he didn’t want her to be upset over whatever happened during the conversation with her father either. Roland then went up to her and got down on his knees to her position to ask her of the current predicament to see if she was ok. “Hey…..is everything alright?”

Roland continued eating as Avery stated that she never get to watch tv, so he assumed she showed no interest in watching anything. “Whatever you say then” said Roland as flipped the television on while he continued eating. Afterwards, Avery decided to get up saying that she needed to use the restroom, so Roland decided to turn around behind him and point out where it was located and in statement as well. “The hall right there, first door on the right. Everything should be in there so you’ll have no problems.”

After she left, Roland picked up the remote and started flipping channels one by one to see if any type of interesting program was on. While he tried to eat what was left on his plate, every channel that he had came across showed nothing of interest to him, and other ones were playing nothing but non-stop commercials, so decided to at least land on some channel until the time being of finding something else to do once he was finished. Once he took his last bite, he sat all of his utensils back on the plate he ate off of and tried to lay back and relax a little bit thinking of different things. While the television was showing nothing but ads constantly, Roland then started becoming a little tired. He couldn’t keep his eyes open as they began to slowly close and his sight would fade into black.

Shortly after, Avery came back into the main room, wondering if she could use the kitchen for something. As Roland got straight back up, trying to keep himself awake, he looked at her and replied. “Uhhh…..yeah….sure.” As she went into the kitchen, he leaned back up and rubbed his eyes so that he could stay awake, almost forgetting that he had company and how rude it would look on him. He then just caught himself for a moment to realize that she asked to use the kitchen, but for what?

Once again, Avery came back into the room to ask Roland if he liked chicken. Roland looked back over at her, trying to keep awake and making himself look awake, with a response. “Hmm? Oh….yeah. Yeah, I do.” Once she went back into the kitchen, he found out that she was probably going to cook with the chicken that was in the fridge, but then he asked himself something as he wondered. “Wait a minute…..didn’t we just eat?”

Roland began to eat after everything was situated with the food, and in high hopes that Avery was going to like what she was eating. While he started to take his first bite, he looked next to him to notice that Avery was eating like she had never eaten anything before in her life. He didn’t know what to think at first, but he did enjoy seeing that she ate the food without question so he stayed quiet about it. As they continued, he also noticed something else about her. The sunglasses that she had wore earlier and a few minutes ago, she didn’t have them on anymore, but Roland saw her face as he figured why she had them on in the first place.

As he spotted the black eye that she had, he was surprised that she had one, but the question that left him in wonder was how she got it in the first place. He didn’t want her to notice that he was staring at the damage on her face, but then again she was too distracted from consuming the food given to her. He decided to turn back to his plate, not to say a word about her condition for he might make her upset. As he continued to eat, a couple of minutes later, Avery sat her plate on the little table in front of them saying thank you, stating that she was done. Roland became shocked when she had finished her food so quickly, but was assuming that she really must of enjoyed it as well, so he had no complaints.

“Wow, it must have been good” said Roland. He smiled as he kept eating what he had left on his plate, but didn’t stop him from conversation with Avery. “I’m glad you liked it. If you want anything else just let me know ok?” Roland stopped eating for a minute and put his utensils down as he looked around the couch for a minute to see if he could find something. “Where is the……ah ha!”

Roland spotted what he was looking for as it turned out to be a television remote. “All right. So…you like television?” Roland asked to Avery as it seems he wanted to see if anything was good on television while he tried to finish eating.

After asking if she wanted some food, and afterwards neglecting, Roland didn’t become surprised at her stubbornness and was going to wander back into the kitchen. But then she decided to change her mind and accept his offer for some food, in which case made Roland happy. “All right then I’ll be right back” he said as he made off back into the kitchen. Once there he continued to make a small meal for the both of them.

He used the knife to cut up some of the pork and sat it on a plate, then walked over to the microwave. In doing so, he opened it up to place the meat inside and turned it on, giving it a couple of minutes to heat up. Once finished, he took it out of the microwave and let it sit for another couple of minutes to cool down, and in doing so, went to the refrigerator one last time to grab a couple of sodas. As he had the sodas in hand, he rushed to the main room to give Avery her soda and sat his on the miniature table that was in front of the sofa. “Here you go, hold up one more minute” said Roland as he rushed back into the kitchen to check on the food.

After doing so, he grabbed another plate and a couple of knives and forks to eat the food with. He put one portion for him on one plate and another for Avery’s plate. After doing so, he continued back into the main room again with the plates of food in his hands. “All right then. Here you go” said Roland as he placed the food made for Avery in front of her. “A Fork and knife to go with it, and a drink to wash it all down. Oh, and if you don’t like it let me know and I’ll try to find you something else ok?” After he spoke to her in a welcoming tone encouraging her to go ahead and eat, he sat down next to her and began to dig in.

In the kitchen, Roland looked around to see what was edible and what could at least keep his hunger in control. He constantly kept opening different cabinets to see what he could find only to see nothing but spices and condiments. He proceeded to look around trying to find actual food to realize that nothing could be found, so instead he made his way to the refrigerator to see if he could whip something up. As he opened up the fridge, he found some canned sodas and deli meat to make sandwiches, but he wanted to eat something a little more hearty. Afterwards, he spotted some leftover baked pork loin from dinner last night, so his decision was to eat what was left of it.

After grabbing it and closing the fridge, he sat the meat on a counter and unwrapped the plastic that sealed it. Next, he went to a cabinet to grab a plate and a knife so that he could cut a good portion of what he wanted and heat it up in the microwave. Before he could, he said to himself “Hmm….I wonder if she’s hungry as well.” He sat everything on the counter and made way back into the main to find Avery sitting on the sofa. Once there, he tried to get her attention and asked her a question.

“Are you hungry? If so, I got some leftovers in here if you want some. It’s still good too.”

When Avery ignored Roland as he asked her nicely to turn her head so he could grab his set of keys he had hidden, she came up with a different suggestion as she grabbed a bobby pin out of her hair and told Roland to move. Roland became question as to why, but got out of her way anyway as she began to pick the lock. “Wait, what are you-” said Roland as he watched her try to undo the lock to get inside. Once she was done and the door was unlocked, she looked at Roland and told him that his keys will still work and not to tell anyone or ask on what he witnessed. Roland didn’t know how to reply but instead left a surprised and questionable look on his face for what she had done was unusual.

After he came back to reality, Roland went to the doorknob to see it really had worked, and finding out it did he opened the door leading inside. He stepped in and took a big deep breath following up with a welcoming statement. “Well here it is. Home Sweet Home……but it really isn’t my place but…..uh…..I guess you already knew that.” Roland then walked over to one of the sofas in the main room and looked at Avery to speak again. “Go ahead and have a seat right here if you will.” He then proceeded into the kitchen to find some food and beverages.

As Roland started making his way home, Avery then popped the question on where his parents were and why he is living with a friend while she was following him. Once he heard her, he looked beside him whilst he continued walking to reply to her curiosity. “My parents are usually traveling a lot due to their work and everything. They go just about anywhere, and on occasion, sometimes to come back here and visit.” While they proceeded, Roland placed his hands on the back of his head to rest while he kept the conversation going.

“They did want me to go with them at first….and at first I wanted to. But….well….I didn’t think I could. I thought about it after a while and decided to change my mind, so instead Steven and his parents took me in and I’ve been living with them ever since. They look at me as family, mainly because we’ve known each other for so long.” A few minutes later, Roland then put his hands back down to realize that they were finally at his house.

“Well, here we are. Wasn’t much of a walk, but it usually never is. Now I just hope I have a key.” Roland approached the door and began to search his pockets in hope that a key with him, but he didn’t. He then tried to see if the door was unlocked to be sure someone was inside, but they weren’t.

Then after, Roland realized that he always hid it in a special place where only he would know where it was at. He turned to Avery and asked her a favor. “Hey, can you turn away real quick?”

Once Avery gave in to his offer, Roland couldn’t of been happier that she had agreed to stay at his place for the night, though he was surprised she had said yes. Though the fact that she probably would have slept at a park or stayed in an alley somewhere was mentioned, he probably would have been stubborn and followed her till she came to conclusion of going with him, but he was glad it didn’t have to come to that. He followed up to her answer as well with giving her a sense of direction. “Well then um……let’s head to my place then and then uh…..we will go from there.” His nerves were getting the best of him because he still couldn’t believe of what he had asked her, but shocked more that she had said yes, he kept a straight face and a nervous tone as he began to walk to his house.

“Oh, one more thing” said Roland as he stopped for a minute to tell her something of importance “Steven’s parents might not be home either, so for now we might be the only two there. Will you be ok with that?” Roland hoped that because of no one else being at his house Avery wouldn’t change her mind or get the wrong idea before going, so he awaited her answer in hope of feeling ok with the situation.

Finding Avery on the school steps was unusual because she tended to hide a lot from others, especially from Roland as she sees him as some type of stalker, but when she came across with her intent on finding some place to stay because she didn’t want to go home, it made an opening for Roland to be of help. She also questioned where Steven was at because he was usually near almost all the time, but Roland replied with an honest answer. “Who, Steven? God only knows where he could of went to, and with it being a school night he could get in trouble.” After he gave an answer, Avery decided to get and start searching for a place to spend the night.

But before she could get away, Roland used his voice to stop her for a moment. “Wait! Umm…..I-I had an idea if um….if your interested, but if not well uh I’ll completely understand and help you find someplace else or whatever.” Roland became nervous for the next question he was going to ask her because he’s never really asked anyone what he was preparing to ask, especially a girl. Plus, he was also afraid that she would get the wrong idea, hopefully not, but he was ready to back it up with explanation. As he tried to clam himself and adjust with his nerves getting the best of him, he popped the question. “Would you like to stay at my place for the night?”
