#53 my muse crying in front of your muse
The gleam of the blade still shone brightly in Lydia’s mind, the cheerful cries of the crowd echoing in her ears. How could she have let this happen? Then again, how could she have known the person she was working for had secretly conspired against the Revolution? She had hid well from Lydia though. Supposedly everything she had delivered contained all of their secrets… But she had not known. The lady was too fond of Lydia to give her away and for that she was beyond grateful. But she had seen it when the day came of her execution along with some familiar faces. Lydia had seen death too many times and thought nothing of it. However this was different and it had hurt her terribly.
She didn’t know why but her feet had brought her from the execution site, back to the Café Théâtre; her home was much too close to her former employer’s, on the contrary. Her face was blank…and felt numb. As she walked passed the jovial patrons of the Café, she automatically smiled at anyone who bid her a friendly nod, though the corner of her lips hadn’t reached her eyes. It was odd to be back especially when she found herself in Arno Dorian’s room which, to her fortune, was empty. She shut every door there was before collapsing into the bed, face down, and bursting into tears. When Lydia took a life for the first time as an Assassin, it was all smiles and pride. It was completely different from seeing someone she cared about having their head separate from its’ body by the guillotine. The thought of how she’ll able be to work hadn’t even crossed her mind nor did she even hear one of the doors open. She was too engrossed in her despair to notice anything at all.
