Behind The Walls

FIVE

09:00. I wait for 2 hours in this place, the place where he dropped the first paper. Why did I wait here? It's just a hunch anyway. Why didn't I move away to a coffee shop or something? I put on my earphone and started listening to A Daydream Away and just started humming. I close my eyes and tried to reenact the scene of his appearance. I tried to imagine what would happen next with his appearance. I tried to memorize his appearance.

I know he will show up. I just knew he wouldn't bail on some reason. I wasn't delusional. I wasn't imagining things. I wasn't making things up. The song Am I Ever Gonna Find Out shuffles to the next song. It seems like that faith isn't on my side, just doubting the chances. I am going to find out, like seriously.

12:08. It has been hours and he didn't show up. I just knew he wouldn't bail me out on this. I bought some food and drink at the nearest shop and went back like some lost child. Oh god where are you?

10:02. I will just keep on waiting for everyday on every week on every month if I have to. I will wait for him. Callaway walks by and waved his hand in front of my face. I was watching the people crossing around the path and he just gave me a fright.

"What are you doing here? Why aren't you at home?" He sits down beside me and steals some of my food.

"First of all, I'm just bored and just watching people while eating. Second, why are you here and just stealing my food?"

I drink up my soda and throw it to his chest. He grabs the can and throws it in front of a car driving by and it made a loud pop and some soda sprung out of the can.

"Shit! Why did you do that? I think that's Abigail's ride. Good thing she didn't realize."

"Yeah, yeah whatever. I don't care anyway. I just need uhh..." He suddenly just stares at something and stopped.

"Well, that was weird. Okay so, Abigail texted me that she's searching for you now. Something about her tire and can of Sprite soda scrapped the car."

"Oh so dramatic you and your face and your humor."

He grabs my face and just put it close to his. I raise my hand and count.

"3 fingers close. Usually you almost went for 1 finger close. That's something. Now maybe go back 10 fingers away from my freaking face."

He smirks, "I'm gonna go search for Trinity so she can help me handle Abby the Wrath Demon." He kisses my forehead and went away. But, he still hasn't come...

09:34. Still no sign. I should really read the whole poem again. He wouldn't bail on me, would he? Please don't bail...

Why can't you be alone all the time?

It's me who haunt your dreams

It's me who scare your lion heart

It's me who wanted to meet you

It's me who will crash by

It's me who waited

It's me

PS: 10 sharp. Count me in your life.

Count me in your life? You mean he's going to stay? Well, he has been in my life. I mean the way he said that he had been haunting my dreams or he wanted to meet me or he has been waiting. Count me in your life. Maybe, just maybe that's what he wants.

09:58. It is almost 10 sharp. I should buy some coffee first. I use my earphones again and Haven't Met You Yet went on. Really, song. Really?

10:00. I'm nearly there to the coffee shop. I'm just going to change the song to....

"OUCH! Seriously, just watch where you're... YOU!"

"Hey, let's just go to the coffee shop."

"But first, give me some explanation of why did you leave me back then?"

"I'll explain when we buy for some Starbucks because I'm craving for one."

He didn't even put off his hoodie. How could he? I pull him and his hoodie fell.

"What... You look so..."

"Hey Narelle. I'm Aiden. Your twin. Sorry for that..."
