Messy Love Arrangement

Luka

"Fuck" I said as I let out a frustrated scream and set my guitar on my bed.

I looked down at my overworked, callused, cracked, bleeding hands I let out a frustrated sigh.

Suddenly I hear a knock at the door.

In a panicked rush, I put my hands under my thighs and take a few breaths to steady my heart rate.

After catching my breath I acknowledge the person at the door by saying, "Come in."

"Oh it's just you," I say letting out a sigh of relief as my sister Juleka walks in.

I intense my shoulders and wipe my hands on my face without thinking.

Juleka sees them and lets out an exasperated sigh.

She then continues to say "You were thinking about her weren't you?"

Juleka then walks over to me and says "It was all for the best...," she starts to trail off.

I pat her on the back and then ask " But what did you come to my room for sis?"

Suddenly she looks frantic and says "Right crap we have school orientation to get ready for we leave in 5,"

She then gets up and closes the door like she was never there.

And I've left with my thoughts all over again without a distraction from them.
