Broken Child

regret

"Alex  ?  Do you think. I ... I can be a writer when I grow old ?"

Alex looked at the short story I wrote and smiled at me
"Well.. Do you want to be a writer Andy ?"

I wanted to be like Alex . he is a writer and I love his books alot .
"I want to be like you . but I am not really good at writing . I make mistakes .." I said looking down at my hands . I still make mistakes while reading and writing sometimes. I'm still studying tho. And I am working hard
"We all make mistakes Andy and it's okay . you know even I make mistakes sometimes. So dont worry . you just need to work hard and focus thats all."  said Alex smiling then kissing my forehead.
I probably dont know what love is because I never loved someone or been loved. But Alex always tells me he loves me and I always dont know what to say back . do I have the right to say it back ?
I look at him deep in the eyes and say
"I miss you Alex. I miss you so much "
Then he suddenly disappears . I cant see him amd I cant touch him
I scream his name
"Please dont leave me again"

"Alex .."

"Alex...."

...

Jolly waited impatiently waiting for doctors to tell him about Andy's condition. He cant believe that he let that happens .in his house right in front of him.  he left him only for an hour .for a goddamn hour .
He waited until he saw the doctor coming out
"How is he ? Is he okay? Is he alive ?"
The doctor put both his hands on my shoulders in a way to calm me down
"He is fine .. You brought him in at the right time .. He needs to rest now .and then I'm gonna ask a therapist to talk him... But right now I need you in my office I need some informations"
The doctor walked away and jolly followed after him to his office
"So um first of all . what's his name ?"
Jolly knew his name was Andy but he has no idea what's his family name
"Well..um his name is Andy.. I don't know what's his family name "
The doctor frown and gave me a weird look
"How come? "
"Well . he is . well listen doctor ..  I really dont know much about him. But he was working at this bar owned by and old man . he was taking advantage of the boy and made him work for him . and he was .. I couldn't let him work there. So I offered him a place to stay . my house and then this morning I told him to take a shower then he didnt show up and when I want to check on him I found him.. Like that .." by the end jolly's voice was shaking .. Remembering the sight of the boy laying on the floor in a pool of his own blood ..
"How old is he ?"
"I really have no idea "
The doctor sighs "okay you can go now . I'll send a therapist to talk to him maybe we can get something from him " I nods and leave back to where Andy's room is .

The therapist made her way to Andy's room and gasped when she saw him laying on the bed
"Andy?" she whispered with a shaking voice "what happened to you " he was a lifeless body in front of her.. she got out to be met with jolly . to her, this man was a stranger and what the hell was Andy doing with a stranger and the most important question was, where is Alex?
She approached jolly quietly
"um excuse me ? Who are you ?"
Jolly looked up at her and stood from where he was sitting "I'm jolly. How is he ? Did he say something. "
"N-no he still didnt wake up . but if I may ask . how do you know Andy ?. I used to be his therapist and I never saw you before "
"I am .um .. I'm his friend "
Lisa nods and took her phone and excuses her self to make a phone call to a specific person.

Jolly walked in to see Andy looking at the white ceiling . he took the chair next to his bed and sat there quietly
"Hey" he whispered ever so quietly and gave Andy a sad smile . he looked so fragile more then he already is .he doesnt know why he cares so much for this boy . he feels like he needs to protect him from any harm. He had a feeling that the boy needs so much love and care and he is ready to give hime whatever he needs .
Jolly headed outside when he heard some one yelling outside . only to be met with the therapist arguing with a tall man that looked to be so angry .
Alex looked at the man that just got out from Andy's room and wondered who the hell he was. And it was the same feeling whith jolly
"What's going on here ?" jolly asked with a stirn voice .
Alex looked at him with a frown "who the hell are you ?"
Jolly approached him till they were face to face "who the hell are ..you ? " he asked back .
Lisa approached both of them separating them "guys we are in a hospital so calm down . both of you "
Alex turned to lisa and asked about the stranger "who is this guy Lisa ?"
"I don't know Alex. But he is the one who brought him here "
Jolly laughed sarcasticly knowing that this man was Alex the one that kicked Andy.  and went to sit away from them
Alex felt offended he really didnt like this guy "did I say something funny?"
"Your presence here is funny to me to be honest " jolly said shaking his head
Alex was furious by now . he couldnt stand the man and his hangover wasnt helping him at all
" excuse me ? What is your problem?"
Jolly stood up and approached him again losimg his temper
"You are my problem.what are you doing here anyways . huh. You wern't there when he was alone in the streets and you shouldnt be here now "
Alex just looked at him . shocked
"You think I dont know . you kicked him out after your father died . you threw him out . and now you are here . where were you when he was alone in the streets ?. in the cold and the rain . where were you when he was forced to clean and suck old men's dicks just to have a dirty room to stay in ?huh . where were you just the day before yesterday when he was raped by a bunch of sick pedophiles .."
Jolly was yelling by now and Alex was just listening to him eyes wide open and body shaking ...
Did he let that happen to Andy after promising him safety ..
He messed up
He was selfish
"What now . you lost all your words ? You want to know what is the sadest part of all this ? Is that he still defended you . 'he was having a hard time' he said when you kicked him out .he doesnt even blame you "
Alex's legs couldnt hold him any longer so he sat at one of the chairs .
Tears fallimg down his cheeks and regret eating his heart out ....
