Shes broken

Part -9-

My eyes widened.

I have never seen a place as beautiful as this.

A cave with a heavenly view of the sun slowly being eaten by the flawless blue ocean, the sky is colored pink, orange and yellow reflecting the sandy beach finishing the with a fresh breeze of the cold air.

It's as awesome as you may imagine, maybe beyond what you imagine, it's perfection.

"WOW" the only word that came out of my mouth, I was totally speechless.

"Do you like it?" he said staring at me waiting patiently for my reply.

"I love it, it's relaxing, comforting, and perfect in every way there is"

"That's good, so what about your scar?"

"That? Umm, it's nothing to worry about." I said giving a smile.

"Don't lie, tell me."

"So what do you want to talk about?" I said ignoring what he said –sorry I was not trying to be rude but I really didn't want to talk about it-.

"Hey, tell me please"

"Oh god, STOP!" I shouted, i started pacing back and forth without realizing.

"Listen, you need to get it out of your chest, trust me okay? I can help you, tell me please" he said, i knew he was genuinely worried, but it hurt me to talk about it.

"FINE, my mother hit me when I was a kid, now what the hell do you want to talk to me about?"

"Your mother? Hit you?! And you're telling me to change the subject? Are you out of your mind?" he said nearly shouting.

I was tearing up remembering what happened "what the f*ck do you want me to do?" I said throwing my hands in the air out of frustration.

"Hey, hey, don't cry, I'm sorry, I'm an idiot, okay?" he said walking closer to me then hugged me.

"Yes, you are"

"Hit me if that makes you feel better"

I pulled away to hit him but I had no power so I gave up, I hugged him like my whole life depended on it.

"Elsa, please tell me, why did she hit you?"

"I asked her about a picture of a young woman on my dad's desk, so she hit me with a knife, I'm lucky that she hit me with the rubber part" I said then I realized that it's the same woman my mother was shouting at – not her but her picture- I hid the shock so he wouldn't shower me with questions

"WHAT TH-, why are you still living with them? Do you want a place to live? You can live with me, I can protect you"

"Thanks for the offer but I have enough money to move out"

"So why won't you move out"

"I don't know, something in me is telling me to stay a little longer"

"Okay, but if they do anything else my house is near yours" he took my phone and dialed a number "here, this is my number, call me if you need anything"

"Hmm okay" I said and shot him a warm smile.

"I almost forgot, why did you cry yesterday? Is it also your parents?"

"No, umm, it's something else"

"Tell me"

"I don't think you want to know"

"I want to know"

"Umm, there is a guy" I paused when I saw his expression changing "see I told you"

"No it's not that, just continue"

"Umm okay, I have a crush on him but he only sees me as a friend, other than that he wants to ask my best friend out, I was shocked and I felt betrayed"

"Oh, maybe she doesn't like him and he'll come back begging you to be with him" he said with a sad tone.

"Hey, are you okay? Did I do something wrong?"

"I guess I'm late"

"Late for what?"

"For winning your heart"
