"Why can't we be together?" I finally spoke awaiting for him to look at me like we had decided we were somthing.
"See that's a good question." He said smiling like he always did, his back against the tree trunk filling him with moss and sap.
"No I'm serious this time. You hate her... despise her even." I spoke this biting my lip , I had said something I didn't want to be answer.
"It's not easy. I really like you. Me and her...we just understand each other" he said this staring cold into the waves shrugging his shoulders.
" I can understand so much," I said this looking down picking at my nails and slightly engulfing into a laugh , a chuckle if you will.
"I understand the farthest we can see with our own eyes, why the solar power sucks in a Alaska, the reason the ocean moves, even the airplane manuals are more entertaining than me trying to rap my head around why u keep her around when u have me ?"
I was proactively siting up about to leave. And all he could do is watch me. Bc he sat there amazed or whatever the heck he was at this moment that kept him from stopping me. But he didn't.
