The door slowly opened and violet looked at Irene with cold eyes, her mood still looked bad.

"Violet, can I come in for a second?" Irene asked as she looked at violent with a troubled expression on her face.

.

"Yes..." Violet said in her sulky voice as she opened the door and let her in, the room lights were off and there were only a few candles here and there which made it difficult for her to look at her face.

.

"Violet, what's with the room why are the lights off?" Irene asked as she looked around the room looking for the switch.

.

"I just felt like sitting alone and think in tranquillity....so I switched off the lights," Violet said as she went over to her bed and sat down in it comfortably.

.

"Oh...but violet aren't you afraid of the dark?" Irene asked as she looked at the eight-year-old fragile girl who was told to faint even in a loud voice. But there she sat without a second thought like a broken-hearted child.

.

"What is there to be afraid of in the dark?" Violet said as she looked at Irene with her emerald eyes glowing even in the dark.

.

And it suddenly gave her creeps, "There is nothing to be afraid of the dark but...Violet, there is no need for you to act like this, just because of what happened in the morning." Irene said as she sighed.

.

"What do you mean?" Violet said as she looked at Irene with an angry look on her face.

.

"I mean you don't need to become all sulky and depressed just for something we said, and you shouldn't always expect us to come forward and clear the misunderstanding. Why can't you just do it yourself?" Irene said losing her calm.

.

"You know what sometimes it feels as if no matter how good I treat you....you will never be satisfied with it..." Irene said as she reached her fists.

.

"...Are you trying to call me a selfish and mean person right now?"..." Violet asked as she gulped.

.

"I am not...I am just telling you that this world isn't just about you...so please look around you sometimes." Irene said as she turned around to leave the room.

.

"The food is ready, you can come if you want to..." Irene said as she slammed the door behind her leaving a speechless violet on the ground.

.

Irene, on the other hand, was regretting every word she said but she knew what she did was right, because she was tired of her mood swings and behaviour. 

"Irene you did a good job so don't feel bad," Irene said to herself as she sat at her table.

.

Right when she said that a maid came back with a plate full of food back as she told Irene that she refused to have dinner and has told people not to disturb her.

.

"Okay no problem you can go," Irene said as she looked at her food and tried to chew the meat but thanks to the guilt that reached her throat, she wasn't even able to swallow it. Ha, do mother's feel like this every time they scold us?? Cuz I am feeling hella miserable. Irene thought in her head as she drank the water and sighed.

.

"I am done..." She said in a low voice as she rose from her seat and went back to her room.

.

"Ash isn't here today because he wanted to do a stay over at the palace and father will be returning late...And both of us didn't eat our food." Irene said as she looked at her ceiling.

.

"Should I always be the upper hand every time....can't she understand it sometimes too, I am a human who can get frustrated and angry," Irene said as she closed her eyes.

.

"Or is it a flex of being the female lead who is always right....and no matter what she would never be the one to apologize first... at least when it's just she and I?" Irene said as she punched the pillows.

.

"No matter what even if she is the female lead this time she must be the one to apologise first! Even if it means that we won't be able to talk for some days or months....or years..." Irene talked to herself as her voice dropped at the end.

.

Right when she was about to sleep, she heard a knock on her door. "Who is it?" Irene said as she opened her eyes.

.

"It's me violet...can we talk for a minute," Violet said as she knocked again.

.

Hearing that Irene quickly rose from her bed and went towards the door to open it. 

"Hello..." Violet said with a smile on her face.

.

"Please come inside,", Irene said as he moved away from the door and violet entered the room.

.

The light of the full moon was coming to the room through the windows as both the girls sat beside each other with an uncomfortable silence around them.

.

"You didn't have your dinner today," Irene said as she looked at the moon.

.

"Yeah... just didn't feel like having it...but it's not relating to you at all!! I ate a lot during the afternoon so I was full." Violet said a she looked at Irene with a panicked face.

.

" I see thanks for telling me that or else I would have died from overthinking," Irene said as she smiled at violet actions.

.

"Ah, that means you were thinking like that....*sigh* I am sorry...." violet said as she looked at Irene with honest eyes.

.

"Huh?" Irene who was caught off guard said in confusion...

.

"It might be cheesy but I know I am annoying in many ways and I always try to be the perfect sweet girl who listens to everyone and also except everyone to do the same. And I also that because of me you had to go through a lot of things. About which I am very embarrassed about...Yet I always find you like the weird one..." violet said with a little chuckle.

.

"...I thought you were confessing your real thoughts but right now it feels as if you are dissing me..." Irene said as she looked at violet.

.

"Well you are right~ I am dissing you," Violet said with her angelic smile that made Irene shiver.

.

"Are you going to kill me after the confession?" Irene asked as she moved away from Violet.

.

"How could I do that! Can't you see I am still a kid like you?" Violet said as she held Irene's hand.

.

Irene didn't say anything and instead, she focused on what violet was trying to say and do.

.

" You know if anyone else were in your place...they would long start to resent me or at least curse at me.... but you no matter what I do....you always look after me. Forgive me and keep standing up for me..." Violet said as she looked at the moon.

.

"At first I thought you were just being kind-hearted with all the sweet talk but....today the way you treated me *chuckle* surprised me," Violet said as she looked at Irene.

.

"I never sweet talked you not did I ever resent you and if my behaviour today hurt you I am sorry for it," Irene said she bowed towards her.

.

"Don't apologize, please....It makes me feel more horrible." Violet said as she looked at Irene with a serious look in her eyes. 

.

"What I am trying to say is...I no longer want to act fake infront of you....And I know if I act real, you will hate me a lot....so we should just break our friendship." Violet said as she looked at Irene with her twinkling eyes.

.

"I don't understand why you are saying this....but I don't want to break our friendship..." Irene said as she looked at Violet.

.

"Why? Do you wish to hate me?....or do you want me to hate you?..." violet said as she looked at her hands.

.

"Why must we even hate each other? I don't care what your real self is because for me Violet is Violet." Irene said as she held her hand tightly.

.

"Then does that mean you will accept me the way I am?" Violet asked as she looked at Irene with a smile on her face.

.

"Yes I will and I promise the day I feel you are going wrong I will try to bring you back on track or else I will myself walk out of your life. So you don't need to feel guilty for anything." Irene said a she looked at violet who looked touched by her words.

.

"Then please do what you said....the moment I hurt you leave me..." Violet said while she hugged Irene and a tear rolled down her eyes.

.

That night violet for the first time was honest with Irene and Irene knew it too.
