WHEN BREATH BECOMES AIR

GARFIELD

" You are not flawed, you are beautiful

As you had always have been and blesses with evidence
Of a life lived"

"So how was the school today?" My mom asked as curious as a five year old.
"I still exist" I said as sarcasm dripped from my voice.
"Why??? What happened dear, did someone said anything to you" my mom asked as she noticed the gloominess in my voice.
"Nah, no one said nothing, but I just don't feel like going to school anymore, you were right. I think I should drop out" I told her.
"Are you sure you wanna drop out because you were the one who cried for school." My mom asked raising her eyebrow in a funny manner.
"Yeah, I am sure, anyways Taley  is also not here and Emmacob are out of the town." I said
"Emmacob???" Mom asked
" Emma and Jacob, I was just trying with the ship names...." I said
"Seriously? You could have done better" my mom said shaking her head.
"Leave it, all I want is to live the life I have" I told her and it was my final decision.
"Okay... I will talk to the principal tomorrow. You can go and have rest. I think you have had enough for today" my mom told me and I started walking upstairs, towards the room.
"Where are you going?" My mom intruppted me.
"Upstairs" I told her.
"Why?" She asked.
"Umm... Because some stupid thought that getting a room upstairs would-be a great idea" I said chuckling.
"Yeah I know, but didnt I told you that we shifted your room downstairs" my mom explained.
"No you didnt, why? And what do you mean by we?" I asked.
"Because I didn't wanted you to die by falling off the staircases. Do you know ten people die everyday because of falling off staircase. Oh and by we she meant me and her herself." Said a familiar voice.
I turned back and found Theo smirking.
I ran to hug him but ended up stumbling and falling on him as we both hit the ground, with me on top of him.
"You know, I always liked this position" he said grinning widely and blood rushed into my cheeks turning them red.
"Umm..." My mom coughed and walked by us.
"I never heard or saw anything"she continued.
She then left two of us alone in the room with the excuse that she felt something was burning.
Theo laughed and so did I .
"Strange mom you have here"he said helping me get up.
"Says the person with the strangest mom on this planet" I told him as he nodded.
He kept on looking in my eyes as the space between our face decreased.
Then he stopped and spoke as his cool minty breath fanned my face," I want to show you something."
"What?" I asked.
"But first you have to answer me something honestly,will you?" He asked.
"Yes I will" I assured him.
"Do you trust me?" He asked.
"I guess I do." I told him.
"Don't guess, be sure" he said.
"Okay, I am sure I trust you Theo Martin" I rephrased the sentence.
"Good, then close your eyes" he said and I shut my eyes tightly.
He hold my hand and began to drag me.
"No peeking" he said and I smiled.
I hit the door , the table and a cupboard which I didn't knew was kept there.
"I think I have to lessen my trust on you" I told him and I could hear him chuckle.
"We are here" he said.
"But we were already here" I told him "we are still in my house" I continued and opened my eyes.
"Ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod"I kept chanting under my breath when I saw my new room.
It was just perfect.
The room was decorated with iris, gladiolus, dasies, gypsophila, gerbera,stocks and freesia. I could just smell the amazing sweetness of the flavor of the nectar.
I saw two or maybe three butterflies flying in the room, the one with aqua blue wings with black stripes.
"I have something else to give you too" he said
"You already did a lot Theo, please don't..." I said but he cut me off.
"Look Wolfie, I love you and please let me do at least this for you"he said and kissed on my forehead.
I was quiet, for a second the world stopped.
I nodded and he told me to close my eyes.
" Please, at least don't hit me with a baseball of something like that" I joked.
"What?! No." He said.
And I let out a chuckle.
"Open your eyes" he said.
"Okay" I said and opened my eyes.
What I saw was the most beautiful creature (second most, my favourite is Theo).
"Oh Theo, this is amazing" I said squealing like a five year old.
It was a furry creature with ginger coat and sunset yellow eyes (Theo is teaching me types of color)
It was a cute lil' kitten.
"I know thats why, I bought it "
He said.
"It's cute" I said.
"Yeah, more cuter than you" he said and all he got a hit with elbow on his chest along with an agreement.
"Yeah, it is" I said.
"Cause I am hot" I finished and he laughed. I pouted to express my anger but Theo he kissed me lightly on my head and I smiled.
"So what are you going to name him?" He asked.
"Him???" I asked.
"Yeah, him, it's a tomcat" he told me .
"Then I am going to name him Garfield."
I told him and he raised his eyebrow.
"Really, that cat that says 'I am not overweight I am undertall' " he said and I nodded.
"Then be it" he continued as he kissed the kitten who was resting in my lap, purring.

GARFIELD'S POV
So here I am sitting in the lap of this cute she-human who every now and then pats me.
She seems nice and keeps calling me " Gar-idk what" but anyways, it's so comfy in her lap and she smells like rosemary.
That he-human keeps on staring at her and smiles awkwardly whenever she looks at him
Strange creatures we have here.
