~Grace~

-Can we talk?
I'm behind Hugh, he jumps as soon as he hears my voice.
-Yeah... okay...
-You're afraid of me, I'm not used to it...
-I just feel... upset...
-I can believe that! I'm very happy to see you again... I've missed you...
-I... I missed you too... at least I think...
-I'll take it as a good thing!
He smiles bitterly.
-I need to do some analysis Hu... I have to understand what happened to you, but I need your cooperation.
-Just go right at it, as always...
-Things haven't changed much since you... since you left.
-You can say it Grace! Since I died... I don't even know if I'm alive now...
-Analysis say the opposite...
-Fuck the analysis!
-Hugh you have to analyze what has happened to you, I understand that you are upset but I am trying to help you... if I were in your place, I bet you would do the same...
He stands up, prey to a fit of anger, knocking over the tools on the cart.
-God Grace, I just want to be left alone!
-You can not!  I will not leave you in these conditions!  You have all the support of the world, you have me, Paul... the whole ship.  And just because I would die for you, I won't let you get out of here until I make sure of your physical health!
-I need some my time!
-And then once I sent you away by yourself?  What will you do?  Will you sleep for two months?
-I'm not you... and you will never understand!
A pain in my stomach rises to my throat to his sentence. 
-No, I can't understand.  It's true.  But it's not an excuse to leave you alone...-.  I approach him, touch his arm.  -Hu... please...
Hugh looks down, avoids my contact.
-You always told me that time soothes wounds, and that everything passes... Hu... try to make this time productive... do it for you.
I walk away, leaving him alone. But only for the noment.

Notes:

I thought about how certain relationships are destined to exist, whether these are friendships or loves, who cares.  Personally I am not a believing person, on the contrary, I am very rational.  But sometimes it seemed to me that certain things in my life, especially negative ones, happened because they had to happen and they brought so many people with them that I would never have met otherwise.  I wish the friendship between Hugh and Grace talked about this.  I will have time to go deeper (always keeping in mind that the story will focus on Chris and Grace), and I'm thinking about a possible "spin off"  (they are ideas of the moment, then who knows what will really happen).
Sorry for the poetry, I'm very inspired!
It's a little short but I hope you enjoyed it!
