It's silent

It's silent. My mind. It all feels like a lie. I wish it was one, enough for me to stay strong for my grandma. Those words crushed all my hope and my strength to stay strong for her. Now all I can do is count the time left without any peace. I keep telling myself it's a lie but my heart begs to differ. It all feels like an illusion. It's all silent forever now.

Alex is driving us around to random places. He looks worried. Why? Even Inside the cabin as soon as the doctor told us the terrible news his face dropped and it's been like that for some time. I wish I could figure out why but right now I'm myself am struggling to figure out how to accept the truth.

We stopped the car near a park. The sun had changed its colour indicating its depart. I can relate, but my feelings. We sat on the nearby bench with no strength left to even start a conversation.

"Are you okay" alex asked me with the same worry I had seen in his eyes when he was driving.

No, I'm not .

"I'm okay" I said lying. But he didn't seem satisfied with my answer.

"How are you feeling" the worry in his eyes turning to a concerned feeling.

Dead

I didn't reply. He was looking at me to say something to him. But there was nothing left to say. I just looked down and no longer held back the tears that formed nside my eyes. I didn't wipe them, letting them flow without any hesitation.

Alex scooted closer to me and hugged me. It was consoling hug.

"Shh it's going to be okay we'll take care of her" he said rubbing my back soothingly up and down.

"No its not, it's not okay I can't lose her I just can't. I've already lost a lot of people, I can't bear to lose her too." I said sobbing. Why is life doing this to me, what have I ever done to anyone?

My thoughts were broken when I felt a kiss on my forehead. My eyes widen. His lips lingered there for a while before pulling back. I looked up and saw a look in his eyes that I've seen a lot of times.

After sometime my sobs stopped and I calmed down. I looked at Alex mumbling something I couldn't hear.

Suddenly he crouched in front of me and took my hands in his. He kept looking at me intently. What is he thinking?

"Ethan will you go on a date with me?" He asked. My eyes widened so much that I was afraid that they may pop out.

I looked down to see his face with a expression that looked like he was constipated. I didn't know what to say. Unknowingly the thought of us being together and going on a date broght a smile came upon my face.

I've never thought of this before. I might have a little crush on him now. That all explains why he has been so nice to me and a total bitch to others . Should I give him a chance? I mean remembering my previous relationship with him I'm scared to get in a relationship again but with Alex I feel safe. I feel something I've never felt before. He nice to me. He was nice too. Are all men that same? My chain of thoughts broke when I felt Alex shaking me.
