Will's POV
Friday, 9:54 am
It's pretty late. And the only reason that wakes me up is the sun rises entering through my window. As soon as I open my eyes, I realize that I'm covered in a wet pillow... I guess that is because of my tears. I haven't slept a shit. I couldn't. How could I? Knowing what I did...
A bit dizzy, I stand up and go to the kitchen. My brother is doing breakfast: toasts and orange juice. He doesn't like to cook at all. He always wait for me to do the meal, but in special occasions, he does it instead.
"Good morning, you"
"Good for you..." That was a bit rude... but anyways he gives me the food and smile, sitting next to me
"I left it"
"T-The box?"
"Yeah"
"D-Did Nance see you?"
"No"
"Sure?"
"Pretty sure... How are you feeling?"
"Exactly the same as yesterday but without tears left"
"Can you explain me what is this all thing about?"
"I... had an argue. With Mike. A bad one"
"Oh... that's why you asked me to give him his present without seeing you or me?"
"Yes... Jonathan I feel horrible..."
"But... did you cause the argue?"
"Kind of... Yes"
"How are you going to solve it?"
"I guess it is solved now... But we're still bad. And the rest of the party... well. You can imagine how it's going..."
"Actually I don't... It's difficult to try to understand what in the world are you talking about, Will"
"Just... Imagine. You want to do something, but that's not the right thing for the rest, would you still do it?"
"I'll... Try a way to look for both benefits, not just for me, but for them too"
"A-And, that would be it, right? You have a decision. T-The solution for everybody. B-But... what if you hurt someone?"
"Doing the right thing? Then I guess that wasn't the right thing at the end"
"But... I tried. Believe me, I tried to save everybody. Also, I saved that person of being damaged in a way! But I hurt him in another one..."
"...Did you hurt Mike?"
"I was protecting him... I know I was... But this still sucks. And it is worse of what I thought..."
"Have you talked to him? About he having the possibility of getting hurt?"
"No... I-I couldn't say anything. I-Its hard ..."
"I see... Then what are you going to do now?"
"I don't-" ding dong. The doorbell
"I'll get it, relax" -My brother stands up, and I try to control my breathing, eating half of the bread with jam he prepared me.- "Uh... Will?" -I stand up and go to the entrance, and see her. Oh no... Well- Now I can see her. But... what do I tell her?
"Hi Will" she says with a harsh tone
"E-El... I-I'm sick... If I were you, I wouldn't be here"
"Oh sure of that? Were you sick last night when you told Mike you didn't love him?" - ... I look at Jonathan, and his eyes are widely open and staring at me, in the moment I enter in panic, El corrects herself- "I-I mean, when you told him you won't be friends anymore... Were you really sick?"
