Wanderlust

Deal

Willy slept little last night, she watched the poor taxi driver kidnapped. I wonder if his family would be looking for him...Willy's Family should be hiring all police in the city.

That worries me a bit, how she will mislead her parents and the taxi driver family?

Willy took the phone again and was reading our old messages; I miss talking to her, our plans have failed in a cruel way. I'm pathetic, I can't cry for me, much less by my best friend. So far, I haven't seen Willy cry, however, know when she thinks of me and our time together, her eyes become glassy and opaque, and for a few minutes she looks like a statue. She looks like she died.

I was watching her time of trance, when the driver groans in pain when touching his battered head.

"Your crazy girl! I'll call the police! "

Willy got out of her trance and stares blankly, she rises, takes the bat and places in attack position.

"You can try, I can be crazy, but I can guarantee that I am not stupid. I had Already planned everything so you can't run away. "

"What ?!"

What ?! How? When? I didn't see her doing anything like that ... I slept? I can't sleep, ghosts don't sleep. She's bluffing? When Willy put her secret plan into action?

"Bullshit, you did nothing!"

"Duncan Lewis right? 22, temporary taxi driver while paying your bills for college. I talked with your lovely mother this morning, told her that you were in a small holiday trip with a good friend who did not know when they could get in touch again, but would try to send the most letters informing your situation. She gave me the freedom to take care of you and make sure you have fun."

The silence took the small hotel room bill, and were heard only the pleasant songs of the birds. The driver looked at her puzzled, and I imitated, I had not seen any of that. Where did I went? I don't remember having left that room.

Duncan approached Willy, pulling his hair.

"You spoke with my mother?"

"Yes. Helena Lewis, your mother's really nice. "

"Why are you doing this to me? What have I done to you? Why me? "

"I have nothing against you, I just need someone to travel with me."

"You have no family or friends to accompany you? It is dangerous to rely on a complete stranger to accompany you on a journey! "

I felt Willy turning marble again, she was silent again and forgot everything she was doing. Duncan stared at her and put one of his big hands on her shoulder.

"Hey! Are you there girl? "

"Yes, sorry. My family has other plans, as well as my friends. And I think a stranger that's worry about another person doesn't look dangerous to me "

"Okay... You're right... But, you couldn't wait for them to travel another time with you?"

"I can not waste another second of my life doing something that makes no sense to be alive."

He took one step away from her, I saw a little sparkle in his eyes when Willy firmly spoke that phrase, it seemed that they shared the same feeling. If I were alive, perhaps I would feel the same excitement. 

"From what I researched, you have done nothing to feel alive too. I need someone who feels the same desire for adventure, and I think you are that someone Duncan."

Duncan stroked his beard and looked very indecisive. Willy just lowered the bat, and looked back to her phone. The man grumbled a bit, but threw his hands up in redemption.

"All right, you win, maybe I'll get good stories to tell in the future."

"Good, because we must start now."

"Now ?! How come? "

"I told. I will not miss even a second of my time with trivial things, come on! "

She ran to the door, unlocked and ran continuously until the reception, put the money on the counter, shouted a thank you to the receptionist, and shot out of the small hotel. Duncan ran after her, this time, I realized that he fully accepted the idea of ​​the trip, maybe Willy didn't know, but probably she saved him from a routine that maybe he hated and finally felt alive again. He ran without stopping, and through his beard could see a smile of excitement grow on his lips.

Willy sat in the passenger seat, put her stuff in the back seat and held the baseball bat in her lap. Duncan sat panting in front of the steering wheel and within seconds they were on the road again, but with the problems solved.

I could feel that they would become great friends on this trip meaningless.

"Let us introduce ourselves properly. My name is Duncan Lewis, You can call me Duncan only. And honestly, at first I thought you were a crazy bitch! But maybe you're a crazy in a good way! I think I will love it all. "

Willy smiled, opened the window and let the wind hit her face.

"I will also love it, I hope reward for lost time.You can call me ... Sondra. "
