one minute there was silence;
the next, came everything he ever felt.
may 4th
felix's POV~
working distracted me.
until there was no work left to be done.
then my mind screamed into the silence of my mothers café,
screamed of things i wanted to hide.
but only because i didn't know how to face them.
how best to accept things so life changing?
to accept that i wanted it.
to acknowledge first, and then come to terms with the fact i had actually been keeping this from myself for a number of years.
why didn't i know until now?
until so recently?
my best friend...i desired his sister.
fighting it was an option i took, of course, but a pointless one.
avoiding her was my plan, futile as it were in the end, worked for a while. i can't fathom how i managed but i did, and yet i didn't sense if it was worth it.
what was even the point if my end goal was to face it? to face feelings?
was i actually going to do that?
perhaps not the way most would do, i did not have the words ready to tell her. not yet.
slightly pathetic but true enough.
a splurge of courage would then burn my soul every time i think back to what brought me here, sat on a chair outside the cafe, smoking one of the cigarettes tullio offered me that morning.
the smile i caught sight of before she was gone. i didn't feel deserving of that smile.
i took a breath.
i looked up.
i couldn't see the sky, as i sat slumped under an umbrella that went through the table.
and so then... then i felt a coldness in my chest.
i sheltered myself from the pink and gold clouds, from birds, butterflies capering high above my head. from the sky painted dark blue, lilac, orange and pink, i hid in ignorance.
my heart translated the beauty of nature to the potential beauty i could have already shared with the girl; had i not distracted myself under the umbrella. which was, in this scenario, my fear.
i closed my eyes but it didn't bring me peace.
or sanity.
instead i was rewarded the smile i tried to block myself from melting for.
