The Wisp Sings - Winter Aid

Sweater Weather - The Neighborhood






I came home tired, I just took off my uncomfortable clothes and put on a loose t-shirt and short shorts instead and went to my room.Unlike Javier, I just wanted to sleep, he was so obsessed with Escobar and him mice, he got very tired during the day and spent most of the time in that damn office, lately he rarely consumed anything other than cigarettes and alcohol.


he hadn't come home yet and it seemed like he wasn't coming home yet, so I fell asleep without getting lost in any more thoughts.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I opened my eyes at the sound of the door and stood up from the bed, "Javi?"
He looked tired, his under eyes had once again turned into the same colors I was cursing at.
He sat next to me and leaned his head on my shoulder, without saying anything, he was just breathing calmly, eventually he just started crying.
Just like a defenseless little child, I wrapped my arms around his waist and hid his head on my chest.


"I shot a child," he said in a hurt but clear voice. Children were his weakness.Escobar gave child a gun to almost killed him, but he was a kid no matter what, so Javier thought so.If you gave candy to a child, they would love you and just listen, and that's what that child did.

"Javi...it wasn't your fault..."
"It was, mi amor (my darling)..."
Unlike normal nights, this time I was the one hugging Javi, he needed sleep but was trying not to lose the kids again like what happened tonight.He was trying to bring down Escobar and other cartels.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I opened my eyes with the alarm sound, Javier had left early again.
For God's sake, it was already past midnight when he got home and it was only 7 o'clock now.

When I looked out the window I saw his Jeep outside but his keys weren't here and he would let me know when he wasn't going to drive.

"Baby, I have a shift tonight, I will come home late, I left something for you to eat on the counter, please eat something decent and go to bed before I come, I love you."
I left a note on paper and stuck it to the side of the keychain.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I came home towards the morning, the note was still there and he hadn't even touched the meal I prepared, I hung up my jacket and walked towards the room.
"por favor mi amor, at least-" The bed was empty and everything was the same.
Javi didn't come home last night.


Panicking, I ran to Steve's apartment. "Connie, is Steve home?" she's not understanding my

question "what, did something happen?" she asked."Javi hasn't been home since yesterday morning, his car is in front of the house but he doesn't have the keys!".Connie worriedly went inside and called Steve, Steve came to the door with sleepy eyes, apparently he came home last night.
