Complicated Love

(3) We Meet Again

Skye POV.

Two years have passed since the incident.

I was at my volunteer work, helping the homeless people get there food.

"Please. You will feel warm after drinking this." I said giving out a bowl of soup to a old gramps. "They have blankets there too." I said, pointing next to the tables. "Don't catch a cold again!" I shouted, as he was walking off to sit down.

"Do we still have some more soup!" I called out to the cook, but soon after I turned around, I was face to face with Jacob.

"I didn't know that you still come here. I thought for sure you'd be bored by doing volunteer work."he said.

"I thought your shift was this Friday night." I said not looking at him.

"The shifts changed. Are trying to tell me that you come here to avoid me."he said

"That's for our own good right." I said look down to the ground as if it was the most interesting of the world.

"Lisa can you replace me over here?" I ask, one of the volunteer workers passing by.

Right when I start to walk away, Jacob scream for me to stop and say "You don't have to deliberately like that." He said

"Hey, look over here." He said again.

But I knew, without looking, I know your eyes says it all. That Vanessa's death was my fault... She died because of me.. No matter how much you hate me there was nothing, I could have done.

"I..... You may not believe me. But I did love Vanessa too. We grew up together." I said looking down wearily.

"So that's your unique way to show how much you love her. To me you don't deserve any sympathy, and of course you don't deserve to be a nurse either. Because you couldn't even protect just one life!" He screamed at me.

But, my heart was beating out of control.

'Calm down, calm down.' I keep chanting in my head, I can't get a shock.

'Don't get hurt again. My heart has been hurt so deeply. If it get hurt more than this, my heart is really going to stop beating.' I said to myself.
