Can You Keep A Secrete?

A Day Together

When me and Elliott left the cafe we met at, he showed me most of the city we live in. This city is so pretty and it seems so clean. We stopped at a park. I saw many kids playing around as their parents watched them from a distance.

I sat down on one of the swings I saw that was open.

"Want me to push you"

"No, I have a feeling I'm too heavy"

"I doubt it"

"Fine then, push me"

And with that I was up in the air. Swinging back and forth was kinda fun. I laughed at how fast I was going. I like being in the air, I feel more free. This reminds me of when my brother took me here and played with me. But this was all before I was hated by my family.

Elliott stopped pushing me. Maybe it was because I stopped laughing and I was completely still. He walked up to me and asked...

"What's wrong?"

I looked up to him straight in his green eyes. My heart started to flutter. I had this feeling before, but it was when I was with him. I was so naïve at that time, now I can't stand it. I looked down at the ground, debating if I should lie to him or not.

"It's nothing, I'm fine"

I lied...

"Are you sure?"

I looked right back up at him, he had this worried look on his face...I wonder why. We just met, we're on this "date", and now he's asking me if I'm ok with the worried look on his face like we've known each other for months.

Why...is he being so nice to me..?

"Yah I'm fine. Come on push me!!"

Another lie...

I'm just going to keep a smile on my face, try to forget about all my bad memories. My friends always told me, to keep going, nothing is like the present, don't look back, all will be good.

So that's what I'm going to try and do.

I felt a push on my back, and the next thing I know, I was up in the air. I love how the air hits my face and when I go backwards it feels like I'm being sucked in by it.

We left the park. Elliott started showing me around the city, the other parts we haven't seen yet. It's been since last night I've eaten something. I looked at my phone to see the time, it said 3:45. I started feeling weak and I was stumbling over my feet a few times.

"Hey, you want to get something to eat? I'm starving"

It's like he just read my mind, or he noticed I wasn't feeling good and he just said that out the blue.

"Yah I am too"

"Ok, where do you want to eat?"

I started thinking about the places I've seen so far.

"I saw a Mexican place a little far back. Let's go there!"

"Ok, let's go"

He showed me where to go on how to get there, just Incase I want to come back here again.

When we got there, we waited a while for a seat. After minutes passed we was taken to our take and soon we ordered what we wanted. We had small conversations and long ones.

"Here's your order's"

"Thank you"

Once I got my food, I gobble everything down and finished eating in five minutes.
