DARK SOUL'S: The Story You Started

ETHAN

In my office,  I was anxiously waiting for Dean to come back. I know there has to be some reason as the way she treats me. She doesn't even know me, why would she do that? Maybe I scared her or maybe she was disturbed by the new place fact! I know how much time she had taken to make this decision.
I don't know what's bothering her, and I am not a shitty person as I behave sometimes.
I care for the people. No matter what will be the result or how will they treat me?
When I was a child my Mom passed away and I was raised by a single parent. My dad raised me all by himself and taught me the things I would have never understand, that is the thing I am used to doing all the time in my life. To respect and care about the peoples.
He was so much in love with my mother, that he couldn’t replace her with anybody else nor wanted to get involved in any other women.
We are both for each other from then; like in sickness and in health.
Sometimes he tells me about their relationship, where they met, how they fell in love. Which is of course romantic. But It tells me how real love should be, it deserved peace and happiness with each other. We have to heal each other. And besides these things,
Now we are known as "Nicole's" or sometimes "Cold Nicole's" It is all about our behaviour.
My thoughts were interrupted by the buzzing of my phone and it’s Dean...Shitt, It’s Dean!!
"Hello, is she okay?" I asked anxiously.
"Cool down big man, Cool down," Dean said with humour.
"Dean!! Please, Will you just tell me?" I said. I know I might be sounding like a pleading puppy but it doesn’t matter.
"Okay okay..Yeah!!  She is okay and she said thanks to me but" He paused.  I froze.
"But What Dean!! Damn it, Don’t you dare to play games with me now," I said annoyingly. He is damn frustrating sometimes.
" Ethan there is something with her, and I can't explain it right now. I don’t want to judge her or read her. But you are like my small brother to me and I care about you a lot.  I may have to suggest that, You shouldn't be messed up with this one" He said with his calm and composed language. It makes me nauseous to think about the worst things.
"What do you mean dean?  What is it with her?  and I should have to tell you that I am already in deep shit" I rubbed my forehead with the back of my hand.
" I can feel it, Ethan, and I really don't know what is it with her but she looks so lost," Dean said, “like she didn’t belong here”.
I know he always says truth and I know whatever is he saying was true. Because I had already known this. But hearing it out by dean, makes me think more than before as if it was the assurance of the things I am feeling about it.
Dean is in his late forties happy with his wife and two beautiful daughters. I know whatever he will say is true, but it stings to my heart badly. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I never had these types of feelings in my heart. It feels like something is pouring through my heart and tearing my soul upside down.
I shouldn't have gone that far by thinking of her, Whatever is bothering her maybe I could sort it out. But not today.
I headed to the car and went straight home.
I know my father is waiting for me.

"What's wrong with you Ethan," Dad asked me in the middle of our dinner.
"Nothing dad. I am really happy about this project now. after so much of ups and downs, It is really happening now." I shrugged. I am really a shitty liar in front of him and he will catch me, eventually.
"Yeah me too. I hope it will go as easy as it seems" He said watching me over his glasses. The way he noticed the things he should have to be a professor. But he is not!
After our meal, he stood up to leave but stopped.
Here We Go!
"You know Ethan, you are the worst liar and you should have to come up with better-excused recreations for our discussion, so you don’t have to lie with me next time," He said and patted on my shoulder.
I nod.
"Don't hide it from me, I'm your dad, my son" He kissed the top of my hairs and left.
I closed my eyes and managed not to choke out.
" Yeah," I said behind him, that's all I could say right now.
