Chapter 16

Reason why


The corridor was dark but it was still visible the doors moving open and close, I was sitting on the floor, back on the wall. Chan was in similar position.

We both were talking about daily staff like 2 old friend who haven't seen each other for ages. He was a comfort person for sure. It's like he will fit anywhere he will go. It impressed me a lot, cause he was a big realist with big heart.

-What do u do?

-What do u do?

He finally asked me after finishing previous discussion.

I lazily looked at the wall scrolling up and down.

-I work with communications. If there is a firm that needs to connect or translate, I am coming into the game. I do many things but mostly linking and transitions are my main duties.

-Is it papers or people?

-Both, but mostly people.

-So, u must be a great communicator, I feel that while talking to u.

He said smiling. I was shy to admit that as it was something I didn't like to talk a lot. I felt as I am putting myself over other people.

I just nodded. He got the message.

-Can I ask something personal?

I was afraid of the answer.

-Sure, go ahead.

He said it so easily as if I asked him to pass me a water bottle.

-Are u happy, Chris?

-It may sound stupid but, yes, I am.

He said covering his face with a hand.

-It's not. Just the life u are living. I am not sure I ever could. It's hard, to control yourself anywhere u go, whatever u do. How do u cope with it?

-I can't say it's easy but I like the thing I do and I have to go with all consequences as it was my decision.

-And what do u do when u feel on edge? Like u can't do it? Or it's too much for u?

I was really curious.

-I am with people I love, or I rest as much as I need it. I concentrate and work on some tasks. Healing comes anyway.

I was impressed as he was able to do it all. I was lacking of a lot of things to fulfil his puzzle to complete the picture.

I just looked in front of me, trying to deal with thoughts running into my head.

-U live alone?

He asked from nowhere as if he really wanted to bring me back to talking.

-Yes, I live long time alone, from university, I like it so.
