Marco
"After three years finally all the soldiers come home. What do you think happens then?"
My gosh why does this teacher talk so much.
"Cielo please wake up you shouldn't fall asleep in my class, I mean if you want to fail that's ok with me."
I heard the teacher say before a shriek was heard from across the classroom.
What's going on?
Everyone was looking at Cielo now. She was crying and sweating calling out to someone.
"Carly, Carly, Carly please help me."
Next thing I know the teacher was calling the nurses office, and asking someone to take her downstairs. And then I was on my way to the nurses office.
We made it downstairs to the office, and I laid her down on the cott. She scared me half to death, her breathing was steady now but she was still sweating and crying.
"Cielo please answer me I'm right here ok?"
She spoke with her eyes closed.
"Marco?"
"sì?" (Yes)
She didn't respond
I rarely spoke Italian, not unless I was worried, angry or stressed and I was definitely two of those things.
"Dai svegliati." (come on wake up)
She's not budging I guess I should get back to class.
As I got up to leave she grabbed my wrist.
"Don't leave please. Stay with me."
I couldn't refuse.
"Ok ho solo bisogno di ottenere la mia roba." (OK, I just need to get my stuff)
Shit I'm still speaking Italian.
"My bad I-"
"Ok sarò qui Marco."(Ok, I'll be here Marco)
She . Speaks . Italian? My parents are going to love her.
Wait SHE SPEAKS ITALIAN!? Well, I probably should run a background check on her when I get home, but for now I focus on her.
I go back upstairs to get her stuff along with mine. When I get back down there I grab a chair, grab her hand, and soon enough it all goes dark.
Cielo
Did he...?
Did he carry me downstairs? I guess I owe him don't I? It couldn't have been easy.
You don't owe him shit you don't owe anyone anything.
I was caught in thought by Marco's words.
"Cielo? Are you awake now?"
"Yes, let go of my hand please."
"No."
"I wasn't asking."
"Fine, but I hope you know you owe me."
"Ok, please let go of my hand its hot in here."
He really irks me but I...I don't want to be alone right now.
What are you thinking? Don't fall prey to his lies Cielo you know what happens when you do.
"Um, Marco what happened?"
"I think you passed out."
"Oh"
"Speaking of that who is Car-"
"No one important... I'm sorry to ask you this but... Can you take me home?"
"Uh yeah sure.. but you sure you don't want to talk about it?"
"Yeah I'm sure."
"Ok let's go"
We got up and grabbed our stuff and headed out the front double doors.
