The One Who Kept A Promise He Couldn't Keep

...When will I tell her about my. . . Curse? Maybe not now or in a few months but soon. I walked her home but I stayed with her for a while though. I stayed quiet cause of what just happened earlier.

It's Monday. My mother will be home this weekend and that means Marcy's mom won't be hear till next week. I feel bad for Marcy still, even though her dad left now. I wanted to talk about it but...then that'll hurt her like a bullet in the wound. We pulled out our phones and listen to music, I can hear her listening to rock and pop. Bleh. I putted on my music and started to nod into the beat as it plays.

"What are you gonna study in college?" Said Marcy in a curious tone and look. I smiled and answered, "I don't know, I think I'll keep the family thing going."
"Oh? And what's that?"
"Law, criminal justice, that stuff." She gagged playfully. I chuckled.

She walks closer to my side and wrapped her arms around my ribs with a tight grip. I chuckled and hummed a tune. She grip grew loose yet wouldn't let go. Nor did I wanted as well.
