Dark Horses

Chapter 14 - Jealous.

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you......

"Can you change the song, please ?" Gulf said breathing deeply.

He had cried. Cried softly in the backseat of the car as they drove out side town. He felt sad and hurt. It had been two years since he felt anything. The feelings he had for Mew was unique, different and very addictive. And now it had been shattered, shattered to pieces. 

"It's a record. I have others but they would be similar." 

"So, Stop it. I don't want to hear it anymore." Gulf rolled his eyes. 

"Right, Sir." Alex said with a stiff nod. He drove to the grasslands.

It had been few hours they were driving out and Gulf wasn't feeling any better. Mew had called Alex four times to ask the whereabouts and Alex obediently had answered. Gulf stared at Alex as he tensed up while answering Mew for the fifth time. 

"Can we stop here for awhile ?" Gulf asked softly as he saw the grass fields as they drove up the hill. It was so peaceful and beautiful, He wanted to stay here for awhile.

"Sure, Sir" 

Gulf breathed out deeply as he stepped out of the air conditioned car into the breezy wind. He smiled as he walked at the grass aimlessly. Alex followed behind.

The wind brushed his pink cheeks, drying his tears stains. He stood there in silence, thinking about things, about Mew and about himself. He wanted to talk to his sister, she had always been there for him when ever he was sad or hurting and now, he needed her the most.

"Alex?" Gulf turned to him, Alex stood there nodding.

"Can I have your phone? I need to call someone." Gulf said as he crossed his arms.

Alex stood there without an answer. Gulf knew what he was thinking.

"Don't worry. I am not going to call the cops. Just need to call family. I miss them, specially now." Alex nodded slowly and took out the phone from his pocket and placed in Gulf's hand. 

Gulf smiled as he dialed Grace.

"Hey Dummy!! Where have you been ? Mom told me, you called her. Why haven't you replied to my calls ? "

Gulf smiled as he heard his sister's voice. He sniffed slowly as his tears flew down from his eyes to his cheeks.

He kicked his shoes out in frustration and pulled out his socks. He felt the softness and moisture of the grass and sand. He sat down running his hand over the grass, crying. 

"Gulf? What's wrong.... Are you Okay ?" Grace sounded worried. She knew something was wrong. 

"I.. am. I .. don't. I am so... " Gulf felt terrible as he closed his eyes defending himself to bawl his eyes out. 

"Okay. I understand. Breathe. Deep Breathes Gulf. " She understood him before he could even utter a word. They were twins in emotions and understanding. They were one team, before anything else. She guided him as he took deep breaths. Gulf followed her and felt better instantly. 

"I like someone and....He doesn't like me." 

"Oh.. "

"I never felt like this, Grace. Never. Not even with Adrian. It is so different. So different. I want to slap him so hard! and let him know that I love him!!! And then at the same time, Kiss him hard to show him, I do!!! It's so hard! It's so complicated! It's so stupid!! He is so stupid!! So Stupid!!!" Gulf exclaimed in to the sky. Alex stood at the car, noticing the animated actions of Gulf and smiled. Oh No...
