Reaching You

Chapter 5

Trick and i talked for a while. .

About life and certain things. .

Jobs that we had before. .

Ah yeah mom doesnt know about some of my part time jobs before. .

So ive got my own saving. .And im proud to say that its from my own hard work. .

" you know i didnt know that you work before. ." he said

" yeah same here. . "

and thats true. .he seems to be pampered well enough. .

He have beautiful hands. .

A long candle like fingers. .

Swear mine didnt stand a chance. .

" you see i realized that i must do this. . Finish school. .Grab this chance. . Not everyone can you know. .So i think you must do the same. .your mom wont be there for you forever. ." he saod in serious tone with his eyes close

now who would have thought that guy can say things like that. .

I feel ashamed of myself. .

I admit that i dropped out of school before. .

Because i just felt like dropping out. .

Funny how his words woke me up in an instant. .

" i know right but that doesnt mean i regret what i did. .if given a chance to do it all over again. . Ill still do it. . " i told him and nudge him on the shoulder. .

" me too. . " he said and patted my head. .

I look up at the sky and see stars. .

" i love looking at the stars. .But i dont how to name them. .Like name a constellation. . I cant recognize one. . " i said mostly to myself. .

" i can teach you. .Look that one over there is the big dipper. . " he excitedly said and pointed at the stars

i cant exactly tell you how i feel at the moment. .

Having him near me soothes me. .

He's like a fresh morning breeze that takes away my sadness. .

I wish to seize time and cherish this for like forever. .

Instead of looking at the stars and listen to him while he explains i kust look at him. . Like i never look at anyone before. . Being with him makes me feel like im reborn. .

He's cheerfulness is contagious that im no longer pretending that im happy. .

I really am. .

" oh no its late. . " he suddenly said. .

That made me jump back to reality. .

" no shit sherlock. . " i smiled wickedly at him. .

He smiled back. .

" see you tomorrow. . ?My place or yours?" he said. . His hands in his pocket

" mine i guess. . " i said

" ok take care Skye. . " he said then walk away. .

And when he did i feel like he took something away with him from me. .

I turned away and jogged home. .

" im home. . " i said while locking the door behind me

" where have you been Skye? ?" Reign said while putting her hands on her waist
