Vinny got me situated on the couch. I had a massive headache that made even the slightest creak in the floor hard to handle. I felt the nice sensation of cold on my head. Vinny had given me a cold ice back. It was more of just a bag full of ice, but it still felt wonderful. "Oh, baby, god, that looks painful." He stroked my thigh gently. It was so comforting. I had needed this touch for days now.
"Yeah, it fucking does." I closed my eyes again and shed a tear. My life had become so complicated in two days. I didn't understand what karma was allowing this to happen. "What has happened to me?"
"You lost your best friend, Lexi. You don't have to know. Many people wouldn't know if this happened to them." From this, I began to cry even more. My tears just flowed so smoothly. Vinny sat there in peace. He knew I needed to get it all out. He was there and that was all that he needed to do for me. I just needed him by my side. "Let it all out."
"Why her? I don't understand what bad thing she did to deserve it. Kelly was the kindest most selfless person I had met. I've known her for who knows how long. It just isn't fair!" Vinny stared at me, not knowing what to say. I saw his eyes searching for the answer. Something to ease my mind. "I don't expect you to know. The answer will probably never be given to us." He still stared blankly in my eyes. He was really trying for me.
"It will remain a mystery, I guess." I could tell Vinny was nervous. He seemed as if he was hiding something from me. Something that could ease me of my pain. "I'm gonna get you new ice." He grabbed my ice from my head and walked into the kitchen. He looked distressed the entire time. I knew something was wrong, but I didn't know how to approach it. I didn't want Vinny to think I did not trust him, because I trusted him with my life. After years of dating, it becomes natural.
He was getting me ice for what seemed like 20 minutes. I wasn't on my phone or anything. It would kill my head if I had. All that went through my head was the pain that Kelly must have felt. It was way more than what I was feeling at that moment. Sure, this headache was the worst I had ever had, but Kelly experienced a lot worse.
I couldn't imagine being murdered so brutally.
