Arielle

Emotional moments and a twin thingy

Oh chips!

I just agreed to spend the rest of my day at a restaurant when I just met my long lost family.

But, I can't say no to Sophia as well. She has never asked me a favour before and she has helped me out thousands of times.

I should have taken my morning run today. My head is messed up.

Dylan was looking at me waiting for an answer.

"Yeah, Dylan. As much as I want to stay with you guys, I can't. She has helped me out a lot in the past and this is the first time she is asking for help. I can't refuse. That will be too rude."

He nodded his head in understanding, his eyes welling up with tears.

I got up and hugged him. I could feel my shoulder getting wet.

He was crying!!

Holy Moses! I made him cry!!

I am such a bad sister!

"Dylan, I'm so sorry, I'll meet up with you tomorrow here at the park, if you're free. Please don't cry." I said trying to make him feel better.

"It's just that I lost you for so many years and I just got you back. I don't want to l-lose you ag-again." He sobbed, holding on to me like I will vanish if he lets go.

He was sitting and I was standing. He had his arms wrapped around my waist and his face buried in my chest.

I didn't know what to say. So, I stayed quiet. I am usually good in pep talks and all. But, right now, my brains are not on the right place.

He looked up at me, his hazel eyes bloodshot and filled with tears but you can see the hope in his eyes when he asked,

"Can't you come after you are done? I'll come pick you up. Don't wory.What time will it finish anyways?"

He looked like a little kid reaching out for candy. His eyes were lit up with hope.

I wish I could say yes. I want to stay as well.

Why don't you, dipshit?

My shift will be over at 6:30 p.m. It will be around 8:00 p.m for me to shower and get ready and I think that's too late to go out.

Curfew is at 9:00 p.m at the orphanage and I don't want to a walk back home alone at night.

Scared, are we?

No. It's just that I had a bad experience a year ago and I lost a very close person to me. I miss him so much though. I haven't seen him in like one year.

"Arielle?"

Dylan's voice snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Huh?"

"I asked if you were okay? You sort of zoned out." He asked concerned.

"Yeah. Yeah. I'm fine. Just thinking. Hehe." I said chuckling nervously.

He nodded.

"So, will you come after you are done? Please Elle. Please! I love you so much!! Please come home today?" He was holding on to me, like I would vanish if he lets go.

I really don't want to say no. And, I just got to know them today. It will be rude if I dump them like that and leave out of nowhere.

I want to get to know them as well.

Why the Fuck did you tell yes, bitch?

I have no idea. I'm stupid, aren't I?

Of course. You are, dumbass.
