Fighting for Love

Chapter 11

Jason's POV:
"I'm alright." I told Faith. Letting go of her and bringing her face to mine. "I love you." She spoke. "I love you too.' I told her kissing her wiping her tears away with my thumb. "Jason, come inside I have lunch ready.' Faith's mom said smiling. "Will you?" Faith asked like a pleading child. "of course." I answered Faith got up from my lap and offered her hand. I gladly accepted it.As I wheeled myself with my free hand.

Faith removed one of the chairs from the table, so I can fit in. I looked down at my legs then to Faith as she set the table. Her back was facing me. I wheeled myself over to her. She deserves much better than me. Someone who she doesn't have to look down on, someone who can hold her. I can't give her that no more. And that's tearing my up inside. "Jason, are you okay?" My mom asked noticing my daze. "yeah." I answered Faith sat next to me. Thanks to the table and chairs. Everyone was about my height. "Jason , Uhmm what exactly happened." Faith asked curious but aware that I might not be comfortable yet. "Out plane was shot down." I simply stated taking a sip from my drink. "Im sorry." Faith said. I slammed my fist down on the table. Faith and her mom flinched so did my mother. "Look, I'm tired of having everyone say I'm sorry, I am still Jason, yes something happened, but I'm alive okay, I am the only one who came out with no legs, everyone else came out with minor injuries, this situation came to me and I'm going to figure out why I'm going to get through it." I answered raising my voice not angry just tired. "You aren't going to do it alone." My mom answered "what?" I asked "we are going to be here for you Jason." Faith's mom said "We live you Jason, we just want to help, you just have to let us." Faith added. I looked down noticing Faith's hand sitting o top of my hand, i intertwined our fingers and bite the inside of my lip. "It's just hard." I admitted. "that's why we are here." My mom said getting up from around the table. She brought back my wheelchair and hugged me. I let go of faith's hand for a little bit as I hugged my mom back. Im glade I have them. It's just something inside of me knows nothing will be the same anymore. Everything is changing. And I feel like its my fault.
