My Fool From the Sky

Chapter Fourteen

Griffin was confused and he then went outside to see his truck gone. His stuff that was on the truck was now all on the ground outside. Griffin was upset that his truck was gone. "Why would he take my truck!" He was very pissed as he had been wanting a car for a while. Even though he was accustomed to walking usually he was now farther from his home. He had come to a decision to stay at this new house but he still needed all his stuff. Now not only would it be very hard to get there, it would be almost impossible to move all his things. "That bitch!" he swore, he usually didn't have any reason to swear but now he felt it was needed. He groaned before picking up the stuff that was left on the ground and brought it inside. He would have to pack a good bag if he wanted to go anywhere now because of how far out of town he was. He sat down on a chair in the kitchen thinking for a while. "He will have to come back right? There is no way he can survive by himself. He will come back." Griffin didn't know why he had left but what he did know was that there wasn't any way Sathorn could survive by himself. He would either come back or die. However the thought of Sathorn dying made Griffin feel weird. He wasn't sure what it meant but it was like his stomach had dropped. He shook it off and decided it would just be like Sathorn was never there. He would live just as normal, the only things different being his house and how far he would have to walk to travel. He also did have electricity now so he was interested in all the things the house would have that used electricity. He went back outside and checked to see if there was anything else good in the garden shed and to his surprise he found lots of seeds. He could start a garden if he wanted, and so that's what he did. He didn't really know much about gardening. All he knew was the seeds go into the dirt and need to be watered every day. He found an area where an old garden used to be in the yard and he started to pull weeds with gloves he found in the garden shed as well. While this was not something Griffin enjoyed doing, this was actually helping him keep his mind off the situation and his feelings. He didn't know what he was feeling so he didn't want to feel that way. However it didn't help to keep his mind off of what was happening. It did help him get his frustration out though. Everytime he pulled a weed he was taking his anger out on it. He pulled out weeds until his back hurt from bending over. He managed to get about half the garden worth of weeds and his anger was now almost completely gone. However now with the anger gone, the worry set in. Without his protection Sathorn would surely die. Why was he worried? He didn't know but it was bothering him. He decided to try and do something else to keep his mind off of this. It was now dark so he couldn't do any more weeding plus his back had hurt from it. However he wasn't sure what else to do. He couldn't swim because it wouldn't help his thoughts, he couldn't draw because last time he tried it didn't work, and there wasn't much else for him to do. He eventually decided to try and see if there was anything that could be fun that required the new found electricity. He found the wash machine and decided to try it out, putting any dirty clothes and clothes he had found in other houses inside of it, and adding some soap he found in the house. After starting the laundry he went to the TV that was inside the house. He knew he wouldn't be able to watch anything that required the internet or anything like that but the house had a DVD player and a whole bunch of movies on DVD. He looked through the movies and sighed as about sixty percent of them were romance movies. However he did manage to find a few action movies, a few he had never heard of. He picked one, turned the tv on, and put the disk in playing it. He finished the movie and even though it was late he still wasn't tired. He put on another movie playing it as well, however this movie even though it was action had some romance in it. The romance in the movie had a situation where the main character was deciding which character he liked and even though the situation wasn't the same, it reminded him of his situation again. He groaned and turned it off, going upstairs he attempted to fall asleep but could not the entire night. Once the sun started coming up he got back out of bed and took a shower. Of course the shower didn't help as it made his mind wander even more, he was getting even more worried. After his shower he made himself some breakfast and decided to do some deep cleaning to try to keep his mind off what kept him awake all night. He moved the clothes he had put in the washer the night before into the dryer and started dusting everywhere. He also cleaned things up and moved anything broken to the garage for him to fix later. He managed to distract himself for a few hours, but that feeling was still in the back of his mind and in his stomach. After a few hours of cleaning this feeling had grown and made him groan once more. He threw the broom he was using onto the floor and took a deep breath. He truly was worried about Sathorn, and he was worried he might actually like him. But he wasn't sure, he wanted to be a loner, he liked being alone didn't he? However, after all his thinking all day he realized he really didn't want to lose Sathorn. Despite not wanting too he had grown fond of having Sathorn's company and subconsciously thought of him as a friend. He had finally realized this after all his worrying. However now his worries were about losing another friend. He stood very still for a few minutes, not sure what to do. He thought it would be easier after he accepted the way he felt but now he worried it may be too late.
