The Day Behind (3)
I saw him drove away.
It has been a long time since we broke up. Catherine,
she was amazing in her own ways and never left anything
undone. Except me; I was undone when she left me. Helpless.
We met in a park.
"Tom, I've got to get this tied. Carry on, I'll join you soon."
"Lance, you know them. I can't jog without you. They'll crush me
with the lamest things on earth."
"Well you better wear those socks low or else you'll be one of them,"
"Christ Lance! How could I not notice that, you saved my life", Tom said as he
lowered his socks.
Thus we joined the group for our evening jog. I saw the laughs of people, and the
running of children.
"You know one thing Lance, if could just get one of those over there, I am life," pointing
to a group of teenage girls jogging.
"If you're life then whose death?"
"Mum"
"Gosh have you not been talking to her?"
"Lance, its over,"
"No its not, it is you whose ending it,"
"Lance," they stopped.
"Lance, rightnow here its a great life, you're here, Paula, Jerrod and all,
please, I think mum would have been more than happy to see all these,"
"You know Tom, when I was eight , and when you were born, mum told me,
"Oh Lancy Boy, I think we've got our family an angel," as I recalled, then continued,
"And now you tell me, doesn't an angel forgives?"
"For Christ sake Lance, she left him! She left Dad stranded with us!
She didn't care, she didn't wanna care, all she cared was for herself
and that idiot she ran with"
"You need time Tom,"
"Exactly, or else what am I doing here then?"
I kept silent for a while. Everything seemed to be alright I think. Or am I lying to
myself? Do I need to see a real angel?
That's when Catherine came jogging by, and yeah, I thought I saw an angel.
"Christ Tom, you know her?" I asked him as I pointed towards that angel.
"Haha are you kidding Lance? I've been dating for 3 months now already."
