We Meet Again 2

Twelve

(BB)

I looked up and saw my bae! She's here dude! She didn't leave me! I don't know rather than to run up and kiss her as if I was giving her my life's breath, or slam her crazy ass into the nearest wall!"

(Yeah... I would never do that. She'd kill me! Probably for real heh-heh...)

But needless to say... here she is!

"Rae, where the hell did you go!" Before she could answer, I jumped up like a cricket hopping off a blade of grass and wrapped her in my arms! However I felt a change in her. She didn't return the same affection in her embrace as she did earlier. I can dig it. She's very mad at me, and I can't blame her. All I cared about is that she's here.

I know I have to explain and possibly grovel at her feet later, but now is now and later is...well... later.

"Let's just take the boys to the park then we can talk." She said in her signature monotone.

Awe man, she did not sound happy.

It's like she was... shut off! She actually pushed me to the side and greeted the boys. Jr was more than excited to see her as he smothered her with hugs and kisses, and she smiled and laughed that cute laugh that just... melted your heart. She even gave Dill some love and the devil dog too!"

Oh boy... I'm in trouble!

I then noticed her in the 'get away' suit! Oh... no! This only meant one thing! She's just passing by! She's going to leave... for good!

Huh... no she's NOT! Not as long as my name is Garfield Mark Logan! She will not be going AN-TEE-WER!!! (anywhere hah)

"What is this? Why do you have this on?" She said nothing while she completely ignored me, still loving on the kids. I did not like this coldness in the least bit. I snatched at her arm and the way she snatched it away, still invested in the boys like nothing happened made me, well it made angry.

"Rae... RAVEN!" I said and she stood so quickly that I didn't even rationalize that she was in my face.

How do they do that?"

"So all of a sudden it's okay for you to say my name? I can recall that when I was going to tell the boy my name, you hushed me! Like I was a naughty little secret!"

"Mama... I was just." ... She cut me off.

"I SAID... we will talk later! Right now my son and your son want to take Misfit to the park. It's getting daylight and she needs to play." She started off, then stopped with her back turned toward me, and said...

"And please don't' call her devil dog! She's my child's friend. His companion, and she doesn't deserve to be called a devil because she chewed on a shoe or went potty on your floor. You're passing judgement, just like all the rest, and the only thing Misfit's doing is being a fucking puppy!"

She didn't even look at me when she just chastised. I can't decipher this Raven. She's being really vague, like she's entranced. It's almost like she's breaking the bond that we share.

I don't want this! Did I just get dumped? She now shows no emotion for me! It's like I was inconveniencing her... like I was a nuisance.

"Rae don't do this! Please talk to me, we can go to the park later! Come and talk to me... please!" I tried to reach out to her, and I was swatted away... again, while she still ignored me.

"So... boys you ready to go?" She said as they both exclaimed 'YES' together, and without looking back, they were walking out the door. She's going to leave me for sure I just know it! She looks like she's not playing around, and in her Scathe get-up... I can't deny it.
