A Walk With You

"On The Field"

"I-uh-you should not have kissed me Ted", I pushed him back. Causing him to fall. 

"ouch, C! I'm sorry, but that hurts". He stood up, brushing his ass to clean the micro dusts.

I ran off from the roof area, "Ugh no.. no.. no.. what the eff I've done! Fuck". I rapidly pushed the switch of the lift to open. Planing to literally go outta the hotel for a while.

"wait", I heard Ted's voice from behind. "C just listen to me", without looking back I could sense he's almost running towards to get me.

I looked at him and started to run off through staircases. For a second all I was wanting to fly far far away from him, here, to mom...

Running away with shoes on sometimes causes us to fall. On cinderella's case she lost her glass slipper, and I. "aahh", as a reflex action I closed my eyes. 

"You are saved again", Ted said. He's arms are around my waist. "Now you owe me two", he putted me down. "Or maybe more".

"Ted, I need you to leave me alone for a while. I-I-I", my tongue paralyzed as I was stating words faster than I could feel.

Ted gently took my wrist, " You didn't give me a chance to explain before. But today please let me do it". Our fingers entangled as Ted kept on saying, "I know what you are thinking right now. That-".

I shook off my wrist in a glimpse, " Let me go". I chin down myself and walked outta the hotel. The pool area had a bar, I went upto it. "Get me a glass of vodka martini, Please". 

"I am not leaving until I finish my words today C", Ted said sitting next to my chair. 

I gulped up three shots of the vodka martinis, "So the annoying mood only turns on around me or its occasional during one o one talks". I asked for the repeats of the drink meantime. 

"Frencia is going to be operated soon. Doc said she will have a chance to be normal like before", ted took a pause. 

"well you never really told me how that happened to her", I slided a glass towards him. "Tell me about it".

"umm", Ted kept his silence for a while. 

"If you don't wanna tell me in particular then don't", I started to get hiccups at this point.

"it was my...", Ted started to wipe his corners of eyes. "it was August, I was driving back to home from a concert with my sister, and my girlfriend. We-were, uh, I was so wasted, I could hardly see. Mia--".

I Lookes at Ted. "your girlfriend named Mia". 

Ted nodded, "yes, my girlfriend. She told me to let Francia drive cause at that time the only minor was she. For which she wasn't drunk. Due to her stubbornness I even gave her a few driving lessons time to time. That day, she wanted to drive too. Mia, was on the seat beside Francia. I was in back. I closed my eyes cursing why I brought Francia with me because I wanted alone time wirh Mia that day". 

"She crashed the car, and Mia died. You must have woke up when Mia was already buried. Leaving you with your injured younger sister. You regret the fact that you let Francia drive the car-", I sounded as If I was confirmin. 

Ted sipped in the glass, "Vodka Martini". He looked at me with his expressionless eyes. 

"You regret the fact that, even after all. She; Frencia never complain about why you let her drive that night. She never talked about it after that. right". I repeated the glasses.

"Yeah", he took a few more glasses in. Wipping the tears rolling off of his cheeks. 

"I am sure, when she'll be back on her strong feet, standing infront of you. You'll man up and talk to her about it. Mia's loss wasn't on Frencia's hand either, Ted. Accept it too". I stood up fron the bar to leave.
