The next day, Steffany is still in the clinic, yet any time she can be sent out. Me and Alice are waiting outside. I don't know where Ian is.
"Hey Darryl" Alice said. I looked at her; she is looking upward as she was talking with me."Thanks for saving my best friend. I am a lady of my words, that's why my bet is now for you." She looked at me. "Please take care of her, love her the way she loves you, even if you'll have a long distance relationship. Take care of her like how I've take care of her for years. Make time to see each other, to meet her, to hear her voice, to see her. And most importantly, never treat her like her ex. Cause if do it. I'm going to kill you like a reckless Butcher kills a helpless cow, part by part, organ by organ. Understand?"
"Yes Ma'am!"
"Darryl!" Ian called me, looks like he is mad at me, but why?
"What??"
"I want to talk to you, man to man, on the garden, nine o'clock sharp." Then he ran. It's almost 9, 8:45 to be exact, that's why I wave goodbye to Alice. 8:55, the exact time I entered this garden, and it's still peaceful here. That's why I realized, what would Ian and I would talk about? What is this all about for short? I don't think I committed a sin to him. He might be here anytime, anytime, he might be...
"You're earlier, right?" Ian said. His eyes looked directly into mine.
"Yeah, straight to the point, Ian, what did I ever do to you?" Exactly after I say it, Alice and Steff will pass by the garden.
"You like Alice, right?" I was shocked. I saw Steff slapping Alice' face and ran. "What are you talking about?
"I saw you and Alice very sweet the last day, I think it's really you're plan to have you barbeque party so that no one will save Steff when she drowns. So you and Alice will live with your happily ever after. Well, it'll never happen!"
"LIAR!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR MOUTH IS SAYING!!"
"YOU BASTARD!!! I SAW YOU YESTERDAY!!!" Anger can be seen at his eyes, directly attacking mine.
" I ASSISSTED HER BECAUSE SHE NEEDED IT!" I explained.
"I LOVE ALICE!!! THAT'S WHY I'M GETTING JEALOUS!! ALICE IS JUST MINE!!"
"THEN SHE'S ALL YOUR'S! SHE'S JUST MY FRIEND!! THAT'S ALL ABOUT US"
"Tsk tsk tsk, Alibis, alibis, alibis, You've been caught in the act doing it yet you're still denying it? Tss, lies."
"If that's what you believe, then go get her and she's all yours" After saying this lines, I walked out of this conversation. I ran away, trying to calm myself. But I can't.
I was currently in the playground. Alone. Crying even if the rain is still pouring. Punching all the metals I can see, trees, whatever I see, I punched them one by one, except for a Narra tree. Here I carved a message for Steff.
I Never Betrayed You STEFF, I Love You Steff
I carved this to express my feelings for her. Yet it's very painful to me. I was still crying under the rain, realizing that it was really hard to be so close to your friend. There's always wrong to others eyes, even if in our eyes, it is the correct thing to do. I was still punching a tree when something came out on my hand. Drop by drop it fell. It is hot, reddish, I looked at it and I was right... I punched the tree again, harder and harder until my hand was bloody red. I look at it again. Blood and tears were getting out from their organs. I sat down on a swing. I never betrayed you Steff. I really love you Steff. And I will never ever ever make your heart broken. Even if my life will be taken, or my soul would be given to Satan. I would never do it.
I came to the clinic with my hand still bleeding. The nurse thought I punched somebody to bloody finish, but it's only a lie, a bad mistake. I get out of the clinic with a bandage in my hands, it's almost 8 o'clock. Rain poured through my eyes, I thought we would never be okay again. The rain poured again. B*tch please, why it is raining the moment I'm crying? This shadow steps to the rain, as it walks to the sea of tears, a sea where the tears of the crying people from heaven falls. This shadow will never saw the light, never get what he wants...
...FORGIVENESS...
...To his one and only. I thought this would be the end. This would be the skyfall. I would drown on the sea of death caused by this heartbreak. As I entered this purgatory, nobody's around, Steff, Ian, Alice are all on their rooms, sleeping while crying. I entered my room my eyes are tired, tired crying. Even if I'm sleeping, I felt the last teardrop drop, the last pain today. This might be the last, I wish...
