Secrets Hide Behind Glasses
Chapter 17
Marcel was walking down the lonely Street, ocassionally one or two cars passing by.
He sighed at kicked a can that was on the floor.
It was really weird without Alice.
His car hadn't been working well and he had to get it fixed. And because of that he couldn't bring Alice home.
He offered to walk her, but she said she was fine by walking alone.
"Seriously there's something wrong with her" He thought to himself.
He decided that it would do no harm to visit her and just talk, Maybe he could ask her what was wrong.
He turned to the right as he remembered the directions to get to her house.
He stopped dead at what he saw when he turned.
His face went pale, he stopped breathing for a moment.
She could feel the cold shivers running down his spine.
He freezed. Just like that. He couldn't get his feet to move.
Alice's P.O.V
There was no more pain. The aching was no longer there. The only sound I coud hear was the sound of my ears ringing.
My heart was beating fast against my chest.
My vision was blurry, just shadows. I could barely recognize faces.
Lying helpless on the ground, I tried to move but my body wasn't answering.
Nothing was.
I couldn't think properly.
I tried my best on focus on my vision, but it was of no use.
No one or nothing can help me now.
And the worst part is that it was my fault.
My entire fault.
Why?
Because I was afraid.
I still am. But it's getting time to be brave don't you think?
I think it is time to be brave.
Great time of deciding to be brave Alice, really.
But there's no turning back.
There is no more "I wil" it is "I would have"
it's no more "I will change" it is a "Why I didn't change?"
Regrets?
Yes. As every human being.
But I guess nothing really matters now.
This is the limit.
There you go Alice, putting everything at the last minute. Putting everythig to it's limit.
My vision was still blurry but I could make out figures moving in front of me.
Something landed next to me.
Something not very heavy and it was small.
I focused all my energy on trying to find out out what it was.
I was really dizzy.
Everything around my was spinning.
What was that thing.
I finally made it....
Glasses.
