The car ride continued another ten minutes with Lilly and Ollie laughing their heads off. Clint was on his phone and I was staring into the distance. Soon we got off and came to a stop. We climbed out and had to walk for around 5 minutes with still Lilly and Ollie talking non stop.
Clint caught up with me as I stared down at the concrete. We both walked ahead as Lilly and Ollie tried to keep up. I sigh as another blow of laughter sounds. I roll my eyes as I hear a groan from Clint, I frowned and looked at him.
"Annoyed?", I asked. "A bit I mean this was suppose to be everyone's night not just theirs!" He grumbled. I grinned as I took it in and we continued to walk. Finally we made a stop my eyes gaze up as I stumble back. No way.
Archie's Arcade Emporium was written in bold letters across a gate. Clint was grinning like a kid as my head started to spin. Ollie and Lilly soon came and joined us and Lilly gasped. I imagined her trying to figure out what's happening so I turned around to be ready to go and run into her arms. Guess i was wrong.
Lilly laughed and hugged Ollie and started blabbering about how great this friggin place was. I felt sick, she just forgotten didn't she? She forgot every single bloody thing I told her and she's going to brush it off like that.
Someone lightly touches my shoulder as I whipped around. " you feeling alright looks like you just saw a ghost." Ollie chuckles as he says this and Clint clears his throat. I wasn't exactly laughing so Ollie should cut the crap jokes.
Ollie quickly snapped back in order and asked if I was ok and needed a drink. I couldn't take it anymore. "I'm fine!", I snapped as Ollie looked appalled. I started walking towards the gates as I see Clint shaking his head at Ollie.
Ollie looked like a hurt puppy as everyone followed me. Lilly caught up to him and soon they were deep in conversation. The whole place looked pretty much stranded no kids running up and down no baby ball pits., no Archie. "Unlike my memory," I whispered to myself.
I must have been loud because Clint turned and looked at me. I don't know why but he was making a big effort to talk to me. He grinned," talking to yourself again?" I nodded and stopped where all the game consoles were. We stood there waiting for Madam Lilly and Duke Ollie to hurry their asses.
During the wait Clint was staring at me, contently . He looked busy trying to figure something out. Just when I got worried if he realised my pain I looked at him as he swung around quickly. I think I saw a hint of pink on his cheeks.
"Ahhah.." Ollie said as he rubbed his hands together in excitement. "Looks like you guys know your way around here?" I was about to say a smart comment back when Clint replied, "just followed the signs".
I nodded in agreement as everyone started going to different consoles a sudden thought came to my mind. "I don't think we should be here." Everyone turned to look my way, Ollie looked confused, Lilly raised her stupid eyebrows and Clint listened patiently.
As everyone had my attention I continued,"I don't think Archie would appreciate a bunch of teens in his arcade." Everyone stood there silently deciding what to say next with Ollie tapping his foot impatiently.
He shrugged, "Well maybe Archie would like it if people still went to his once amazing." He walked around his blond hair waving around as he ran his hand along the consoles in awe. "Beautiful", he lightly touched the classic arcade game berzerk I hold my breathe in as pictures flew in my mind.
"Once full of life place." He looked like he won a million dollars but his eyes were inhumanly wide. Lilly looked at him in awe. What's up with her? Ever since she started talking to him! On the other hand Clint looked emotionless.
Ollie smiled and went to a console with Lilly hot on his heels. I brushed my hands against berzerk and entered a dollar coin. I slowed my breathe as the theme song came on. My eyes started to water as the screen loaded. When the game started I couldn't press the right buttons my tears were blocking everything.
I wiped my tears away. No. I had to push this behind like all the other things I've pushed behind I'm fine I'll get through this. I sigh as I play the game, my eyes darting everywhere and my hands on the controls. I fist pump my hand in the air when I got a score of 5200.
I entered another dollar coin when I heard a smash. I turned and to my dismay I saw Ollie hitting the machine in anger. My eyes widen he was hitting the pac man console. The pac man console. The pac man console which cost $2000 and came from the original creator Toru Iwantani. I walk up to him as he gives the machine a kick and the whole thing crashes.
I stop in my tracks and gasp. Clint and Lilly were shocked but not as shocked as friggin me. I marched over to him and my face reddened. Ollie turned to Lilly and took her arm and was pointing to another console. I saw Clint grimace as he sweated under his breath.
My eyes were wide, wide open. He just ruined something that was so important so so important. Don't worry Just breathe in just hold it in it's just a original classic console from japan it's fine. I storm over to the berzerk console someone was following me but I didn't care not one bit.
When I slammed start I turned around to see Clint watching, as it showed the high scores. "Wow your a professional at this!" He awed. I managed to smile and turn back to the game.
For some reason I couldn't concentrate and for goodness sake the tears. The damn tears I just couldn't hold it in. He ruined it, he ruined Archie's favourite and expensive console how could he do that. I tried so hard and sadly I got a score of five by the end of the game.
I hear someone behind me let out an exaggerated sigh. I whipped around, Lilly was there rolling her eyes. Clearly Clint looked a bit stressed, me too I had a feeling this was not going to end well.
"Do you even know how to play! Gosh you could've just asked me to help you!" Lilly chimed. I grimace as I'm about to say a string of curse words she continues.
"Everyone knows I'm the experienced one in game consoles especially with this park!" That's it I could not take it anymore. I screamed, "you are the most inconsiderate bitch I've ever met!" Lilly gasps and Clint takes a step back. "You forgot everything! EVERYTHING!!! I thought you always had my back but no! coz this guy!" I pointed to Ollie who walked up to see what all the noise was.
"Oh and don't get me started on you!" Ollie looked frightened as I pointed a shaking finger at him. "You had to go and destroy the PAC man machine! My dead fathers PAC man machine!" Lilly put her hand over her mouth her eyes were wide and shock.
"Oh yes Lilly, ring a bell?" I asked. I then stood there for five seconds and stormed away. I heard Lilly calling my name so I turned around, "don't talk to me at all until you have a perfect apology for being a horrible friend." I then looked at Ollie, "same as you!" He took a step back he looked terrified I actually felt a pang of hurt for him but then I reminded myself of what he did.
I turned my heel and walked away. Away from the mess. Away from people. Away from all the hurt and pain. I started to choke on my tears as I walked out of the arcade and into a park that was my family used to go to feed the ducks. I heard running footsteps and someone yelling my name. I completely ignored it couldn't anyone give me a break? That's until someone grabbed my hips.
