Two hours later
We both were sitting on the couch with mugs of coffee in our hands ,all clean and changed into our pajamas and there seemed to be a silence that lingered in the atmosphere around us. Mariah was deep down in her thoughts and my heart was sunken low and cold and all I could do every now and then was remind myself to breath because I was alive and she wasn’t. Mariah was never the quiet type and had her own logic to everything and spoke to a point where limit felt like a long word, but today she was silent and even her silence reminded me of death in fact everything around me felt dead. Today I specifically noticed the dim lights, the sound of my refrigerator going on and off frequently ,the chilly breeze followed by every sip of our hot coffee, it all seemed to be reasons of every living cell inside me to slowly yet fiercely collapse
Between all my thoughts and puzzled memory I happened to look up at Mariah and notice a tiny smile h crossing across her lips and she silently stared at me. “What’s up man?”
Her smile widened and she raised her mug “this mug Kiley”. And realization hit me like a thunder bolt , I looked at the mug in her hand and couldn’t help but smile.
“After all these years” she said with a calm voice and I nodded “yes Mariah ,after all these years”.. “oh and bitch stop acting like Dumbeldore” and together we laugh. This laughter felts blank and filled with spaces “Mariah remember how we used to laugh our asses of in the hostel?”
“Afcourse stupid, those were and always will be the best days of my life”
“Yeah, Ellie was a bitch always getting us into trouble” I say thinking back to the days we would risk our souls to help her talk to Nik during night hours in the corridor like watch dogs.
“Remember how we sucked at being Nik and Ellie’s guards ,we always got them caught “ Mariah laughs .
“I know right, and yet she always trusted us with that job” I said with a fading smile.
The minute I said that my surroundings started to vanish and the word trust kept coming back to me. I started blending with the couch and suddenly everything swept from under me and I was falling and falling deep into the depths of trust and friendship that even being high on weed felt like no big deal in front of this. I kept going back to those days where everything was different flashes of painful memory were being thrown at me “Kiley ,I am so sorry for being this selfish I know you trusted me” Ellie said. I fell more deeper into the darkness “I did not exactly lie to you ..but I kind of altered the truth “ Ellie said with guilt in her eyes. I went further in and “dude I can trust you with my life” Ellie said as we hugged and Mariah jumped on top of us to give us a squeeze.
“HAYY KILEYYYY!!” Mariah shouts and I snap back up ,my senses slowly come back to me and tears swell up . “Are u okay” she asks now a little more softly and with tears in her eyes aswell.
I swallow hard “I donno Mariah ….like…I donno everything is coming back eeehhh” and the tears flow endlessly. Mariah places her mug on the table beside her and gently places her arm around my shoulder.I look at her for words of comfort and she wipes her tears and says “these are dark days Mr. Potter…..and believe me Ellie would want us to laugh about it”.
She gives me an assuring smile and I nod back with tears in my eyes “I know she would and that is why its so hard to let go” . “lets take our time Kiley,we are all in this together”
“aah! You filmy bitch” I say and punch her. She gives me a hug and deep down I feel glad that I am not alone atleast for now.
