Bloody Fog - Episode 9
First Slide
Dee's thoughts were chaotic to whether push him back or hug him. But there she felt safe, she felt like he understood.
There and then she realized she needed that hug. Since Nelson's death she felt alone, she was alone till now.
Her eyes were welled up with tears, it felt amazing in his arms.
"I know you don't know me but I am a good listener. Talk to me???" He tried to talk her into opening up but all she did was to hold him close waiting for the tears to stop but didn't.
Suddenly she staggered backwards, clutching her face, eyes watering and signalled him to go.
It was wrong, she swore never to trust any man and here she was breaking it.
On reaching the door, Nick turned around.
He stared at her blankly and before he could say anything, she looked down folding her arms over the chest.
Nick opened the door and bumped into Timmy with whom they had a head collision.
"You still here???? I thought you left." demented Timmy with wide eyes.
"I think I mistook the washroom with Dee's room. I will go now." Nick claimed walking past Timmy.
Timmy was a brave man but when it came to talking to Dee he always had sweaty hands and wobbly legs.
"Hey sister???" he stammered waving at her.
Dee looked the other way, her hands crossed over her chest.
"I know I made a mistake, that you had to go through hell because I killed Robert but i didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't think Travis would find out." Timmy admitted behind Dee.
"I love you. I need my sister back. I haven't seen you for four years. You have been mad at me for a year now. I am sorry, please let's go back the way we were. I miss my twin sister." He begged standing in front of her.
He took her hands and brought them to his chest," Forgive me Dee, Please????" He pleaded," I am lost without my sister."
Dee pulled her hands as if they were being burned and walked to her bed.
I forgave you. I guess I am just mad and angry at myself. For not telling you and maybe Nelson would be still alive.
Dee wrote on her notebook and handed it to Timmy who couldn't control the wayward salty water from flowing after reading it.
"I am sorry I couldn't save him, I am sorry I couldn't protect you." Timmy sobbed hugging Dee. Dee cried too, she shouldn't be mad at him for not been there, she is the one who chose not to tell him.
Timmy on the other hand felt at peace, he had gotten his sister back. Onwards he swore never to let harm come her way ever.
Dee pulled back and took her notebook.
I need to be alone
She wrote and showed it to Timmy. Timmy nodded, placed a light k-s on her forehead and left.
Dee wore Nelson's shirt and walked to the window. She looked up the sky and the light from the moon soothed her.
Moment by moment she remembered how Nelson loved a night at the roof top looking at the stars and naming them.
Tears bursted forth like water from a dam, spilling down her face.
She needed to move on but didn't know how.
It was a high time she accepted that Nelson was gone. It was easier said than done.
But no she wasn't willing to let the memory of him go.
