DOMINICK © [ENGLISH EDITION]

Chapter seven

Dominick, are you listening to me?

"Dominick... Dominick..."

"Dom, Moisés and I are not your biological parents..."

"Your father said he was bored with you..."

He slammed on the brake. My heart was skipping fast. I started hitting the bike, I understood that it was the only way to vent all my anger. I had lived in a lie for a long time, they played me for the simple fact that I have a very bad disease ...

''SHUT! SHUT!'' I yelled, hitting me on the head over and over again.

I hate being alive, I want to end my life.

I look around me in exasperation, the place is lonely. The street ends with the smell of sea salts. I already see myself determined to end this.

I approach the edge of the ravine and allow myself to be caressed by the sea breeze. I contemplate the sea carefully and look into the deep; the waves crashing against the rocks, making them jump like a bird. I take a step forward, turn my head and see the bike lying on the road.

"Emily, Ethan... Goodbye"

I stood on the edge and screamed as loud as I could the hatred I have for myself, echoing my surroundings.

"DOM !!" They yelled at me, she was a girl. I did not turn around, there are so many voices in my head that for me this was already an attack of my traumas.

"Dom, stop!!" I heard another voice. He had already missed me. I had to turn around, I saw them were Emily and Ethan, they were both running towards me.

Emily...

"Back! I have to do it!"

"No, Dom!" Wait! "Ethan insisted, moving closer.

"Don't do it Dom!" Emily yelled, still from afar he could sense her concern.

"Wow... she's worried for me..."

"Dom! Come on ..." Ethan said, staying in front of me, "if you're going to commit suicide, we'll both do it ..."

"I don't want to expose you to this Ethan, stay away," I insisted.

"No Dom, we will do it together ... Do you know why?" He asked me very seriously, staying on the edge with me.

"Why...?" I whispered.

''Dom, since I met you, you have been the best person, you have been for me in the bad times and that has not been just anyone. Not everyone has stayed to listen to me during the nights or not everyone has shared my same level of madness and I appreciate that, my best friend,'' he said with crystallized eyes. "I need you, Dom, don't abandon me now, brother. You are my family, and I refuse to lose you'' his words from him made me lower my guard, he pulled my arm and hugged me, I started crying like a child on his back.

He is my best friend, he was always there for me, I can't leave him alone, and I'm sure he won't either. I wanted to hide that pain that he carried every day in my head. I did not want to expose him to this, my best friend did not deserve it, although he did not deserve to be hidden from him either ...

"God, you did it!" Emily shouted. "What the hell were you going to do Dom?"

"Why aren't you at school?" I asked, eliminating the question from her.

"I was going to school when I saw the way you left your house and decided to follow you," he answered. The life of a friend is more important than a simple class ... - she smiled slightly.

"Your mom called me," Ethan added. I met Emily on the way, the one she told me that she saw you heading here.

I looked up at Emily, smiled at her, and she blushed completely. She opened her arms to hug me, I pulled her by her arm thus bringing our bodies together, she was immobile, my heart was racing, she was totally paralyzed and I could not resist kissing her.

My pulse was disabled, I lost myself completely in her tender lips, my time became infinite, as well as the taste of her lips. I opened my eyes slowly and saw that her eyes were wide in amazement.

"When will we have our date?" I asked closely, still feeling her breath.

"Huh?" She blew out a nervous breath.

"What you just heard, precious." I replied, smiling.

"Stop it, stop now..." Ethan interrupted us. Work things out at school. Come on we're late ...

"Heavy..." I buffet smiling.

"What do you want me to say? I don't like wearing a hat at someone else's party." She answered sarcastically, turning to the motorcycle.

"Come on man, come on..." Emily said putting her arm behind my neck.

"Voucher." We started walking towards my bike. "Do you know I love you guys?"

"We the same brother," Ethan said. ''Emily, are u coming with me?'' Asks Ethan.

"Am ..." she looks at me, "No." She smile. "I'm going with Dominick."

"Voucher. Guys I see you at school." He said accelerating on his motorcycle.

I stare at Emily, frowning, intrigued. "Why?"

"What?" He looked at me, "why what?"

"Why did you stay with me?"

She approached me and stood next to my ear:

"Because I love you and I'm not going to leave you alone."

"Because I love you..."

Sweet friendship.
