Page 12 - Blood and thunder

Thursday came, Scott and his friends had arrived at the bar at 8 pm, had some
dinks, danced and had fun all night. Kira had told Scot that depending on the time he
was returning she would wait for him with something to eat just to talk about the night.
When the drinks had a little effect, some girls came closer to Scott’s group of
friends. They all danced and talked together for a while until one of the girls named
Allison invited Scott to her house to finish the night together.
Scott refused at first but after Allison insistence, he said yes and made the call.
"Hello"
"Hi, it’s me, what’s up, baby? I'm sorry, listen. I'm gonna be late tonight. So don't
stay up and wait for me, okay?"
"Where are you?'
"Say that again?"
"Hello?"
"You're really dropping out. I think my battery must be low. Listen, if you can
hear me we're going to a place nearby, alright? Gotta go!".
Kira got up early on Friday morning to take Zoe to the kindergarten, and Scott
had just arrived.
It was a quarter past seven in the morning. Scott told her his wife-to-be he was
sorry for what had happened. But Kira couldn't stand it and left the house that
afternoon, taking Zoe to her parent's house.
Days after they cancelled the wedding, the party and all the things they had
already organized. And from that day on they didn’t share anything else, but things
related to Zoe.

…Now, two years after, nothing has been won. I can't take it back, what’s done is done.
And it eats me from inside that she's not by my side. Just because I made the call and
lied…
