last update Last Updated: 2021-06-11 18:25:23

The next morning passed as usually. We got up, had breakfast and went to the park. This time Raf was also there. I wondered, what he was thinking about me not answering him.

Flashbacks:

“I don’t want to,” he whispered, still looking into my eyes.

“What?” I asked.

“To have you out of my life anymore,” he continued whispering.

 I didn’t answer, because I didn’t want to promise anything.

When we met in the park, he looked tired.

“Hey!” he turned to me.

“Hey,” I answered.

 Linc and Raf started talking and I was following them silently.

“Do you have a cigarette?” Linc asked Raf.

“Yeah, but I can’t give you it now! Grandma doesn’t allow me to smoke near her. She believes, that I don’t smoke at all,” Raf whispered.<

    I started leaning down to the surface of the water to row by my hands to the right way. But suddenly I fell down into the water.“Ohh!” I screamed.“Peanut!” I heard him screaming.Then I heard the splash of the water and saw him swimming to me. I could have swum by myself, but I panicked and froze. He grabbed my waist and we started swimming up to the surface.“Thank you!” I panted. We approached the canoe and sat in it. “Okay! Let’s continue the way.”He resumed rowing.“How is your family?” I asked, when I suddenly remembered that day, when I got to know them.“Good, James went to his grandma and others are in Spain,” he told.“Why did’t you go with them?” I asked bewildered.“Because I hate that place.”“Why?”“A lot of bad memories surround me, when I

    “Raf?” I said. He turned to me and nodded. “Are these kids Linc, you and I?” I continued. He stood up and so did Linc. They approached me and looked at the photo. “Yes!” Raf affirmed. My eyes widened. “Linc, did you know that Raf has been your best friend since childhood?” I asked Linc. “Of course! Well, I did forget about him, but then I was thinking about it and remembered him. How do you think we have become friends?” Linc said. “But why don’t I remember anything?” I asked. “Because you didn’t know his real name, you called him Batman. Remember?” Linc started laughing. “You are the Batman?” I asked flabbergasted. They started laughing. “When someone called him Raf, you didn’t understand who it was. Don’t you remember, how his family visited us frequently? And we paid them a visit too.” “Damn, my life won’t be the same anymore!,” I stated and put my palm on my forehead. They laughed

    In the next morning, I woke up a bit earlier than granny. I decided to make breakfast and make some coffee and tea for her and Linc. I put on a robe and went to the kitchen. I started making toasts and frying eggs and bacon. It smelled amazing. At six A.M. granny went downstairs and came to me.“Kylie? What are you doing here so early?” she asked me, as she kissed my forehead.“Just wanted to make breakfast for you, guys!” I replied and kissed her too.“It smells so delicious!” grandma breathed in the wafted smell of soicy meat and eggs.“I will wake Lincoln up! You can sit at the table and wait for us! Don’t do anything!” I pointed a finger on her and she laughed.I ran upstairs and started yelling:“Lincoln!” Wake up! I am giving you a minute! If you don’t wake up, I will pour cold water on you!”I started knocking on hi

    “Do you know each other?” Linc asked.“Yes! We are-“ Ashley started, but Raf interrupted:“Are we going, or what?”“Yes, let’s go!” Agatha stated and we started walking around the park.Ashley ran to Raf and asked him:“How are you doing? We haven’t talked since forever!”“Yeah, and what?” Raf asked.“Wait! Can you tell me, how the hell do you know each other?” Linc stated annoyed. “As far as I remember, Raf wasn’t in Wrightwood, when Ashley and Bella were here.”“Yes, but 2 years ago, you weren’t here,” Ashley turned to Linc.“You were in USA 2 years ago?” Linc turned to Raf and inquired bewildered.“Yes, I haven’t told you about it. But I was,” Raf replied remaining calm.Why haven’t you told me about it? For God&rsq

    “Where is the festival?” I asked, when we were already far from the park.“It’s in the center of the city!” Raf stated and I fell silent again.Linc, Bella and I were walking together, while Ashley and Raf were going with their hands intertwined. I found myself rolling my eyes a lot. When we were already there, I noticed a lot of people. There were attractions and stalls with toys.Everything was decorated with orange, red and green colours. Exactly like the autumn. The time passed so quickly. It was already the end of the autumn and soon we had to go back to LA and back to school. Everything was so beautiful, that it made me smile. This atmosphere in this place, with a soft wind and with my friends by my side made my mood rise.“Look! The Ferris wheel! I’m definitely gonna try it,” I stated.“But it‘s scary!” Ashley said and pulled Raf closer to h

    It was morning. You wonder, what happened that night, after Raf had left me near the house? Well, I came into the house and there was still no one except for grandma and Agatha.“What happened? Where are others?” grandma asked, when she looked at me.“They are still at the festival, I guess,” I frowned.“Why did you come home so early?” Agatha asked.“I didn’t feel well. I am tired a little bit,” I answered after a little pause.They were still telling me something, but I didn’t listen to them. I went upstairs and wondered why Raf had stormed off. I didn’t wait for them to come home, because I fell asleep as soon as I lay my head on the pillow.When I woke up, I yawned and rubbed my eyes. What happened yesterday was still like a foggy morning. I just hoped that Linc would tell me. So I got up and quickly went to his room. He was sleeping, as usual. I sat on the edge

    “Thank you,” he stated.“For what?”“For sticking with me during such hard time.”“You don’t need to thank me.” I smiled.“You should know that no matter what, I will be there for you. Always.”He smiled genuinely. “Here you go!” Linc gave us our cups of coffees.“Thanks, man,” Raf stated and started drinking. We were there in silence, until doctor came and stated:“Mr. King, you don’t have to worry anymore! Your granny is alright for now. But she doesn’t have to worry anymore! That’s the reason of her fainting! In the evening she can be discharged!”“Thank you very much, doctor,” he stated and came back to us. “God! I feel so relieved!” He sat near us again.“See! I told you!” I affirmed.He nodded and smiled. &l

    When I came home, I didn’t say anything and went straight to bed. In the morning, I woke up at six A.M. and decided not to go for a walk. I didn’t want to meet him, nor I wanted to meet Ashley and grandma. But as usually, grandma started waking everyone up. I heard everyone coming out of the rooms. But I kept laying on my bed. Then I heard grandma coming in to my room and screaming:“Kylie! Wake up!”But I turned away to another side and closed my eyes.“Are you sick, dear?” she asked, worried.“I am not going for a walk,” I stated calmly, not opening my eyes.“Why?”“Because I don’t want to walk with a woman who doesn’t believe me,” I answered quietly.“Kylie! Why are you so stubborn? You are not giving Ashley even a chance to show her kind side!”“I gave her a chance, but she made it clear, that she was beha

    “Are you serious?” I asked shocked. He nodded and pulled me to the helicopter. “But what about our friends and family?” I continued. “The plane will take them! Let’s go!” he yelled and we went inside. “We are going to be pilots, Mrs. King to be,” Raf stated. “Really?!” I asked shocked. He nodded and I ran to the pilot seat and put the headphones on which I found there. He sat on the other seat. The whole flight I had a big smile plastered on my face. I was so happy. It seemed like that whole day was about surprises, shock and happiness. That what my life has been consisted of, since we became a couple. But now we are going to be a wife and a husband! As we landed the helicopter, we saw the plane landing too. It was the rented plane for our guests. The car arrived and we went to the registry office. I wouldn’t tell you how it was, but as we were engaged, we were about to go to the wedding. It was too fast and unexpected

    10 years later...“Mommy!” I heard a thin voice calling me.“Daddy!” the other one continued. I woke up and so did Raf.“Merry Christmas!” I said sleepily and took Isabelle on the bed.“Merry Christmas!” Raf exclaimed and took Adam on the bed.“Are you ready to unwrap your gifts?” I asked kids.“Yes!” they screamed in unison and ran out of our room. Raf and I chuckled and turned to face each other.“Merry Christmas, Peanut!” he exclaimed, rubbing his finger on my cheek.“Merry Christmas!” I exclaimed and kissed him.“Let’s go?”“Yes, but wait a little bit!”“Do you remember Christmas 6 years ago?” I asked, laughing.“It’s hard to forget.” He chuckled. 6 years ago...“Ky

    She nodded.“The surgery went successfully! She is cancer free! Congratulations!” doctor exclaimed.We breathed out. It was a great relief.“Thank you, Doctor! You saved our grandma!” dad exclaimed and shook his hand.“It’s my job! I’m happy to give you such news!” he continued and left. All of us hugged immediately. We were very happy. I couldn’t be more excited. A lot of things got better and it seemed like every other problem became nothing.“Dad, how many days should she stay in the hospital?” I asked.“4-7 days. I think everything will be alright. They just need to look after her, so the diseases don’t come back,” dad answered.“Okay.” I nodded.“But you have to go back to Spain.”“What?! I can’t leave my granny!”“We will look after her! It’s more than enough.

    Next day was a great and a scary one. Granny had to get her operation done. We were happy about her getting rid of cancer, but of course, every surgery without exception was regarded as a dangerous and a serious one. But that morning was a happy different and the best one. I woke up, understanding that soon Raf was going to come and there wouldn’t be an awkward silence or the pain beating in the chest, because of the unspoken words. There would be his hugs, support, love and the knowledge of his feelings for me. That was what I had been craving for since my mom died. I needed the person who would take care of me, understand and love me, the same way, she did once. And Raf appeared to be that person. People say, that there are parts in the world. They are divided at first, but the goal of the life is to find the lost half of your heart and soul. Ras was the one. He found the key to my heart which was lost and have never been found till

    When we arrived at the same beach, as I was in the end of the last summer, it was evening. Soon would be the sunset, the way we wanted. The wind was warm but strong. Uncle took from the bag a blanket and put it down on the sand. We sat on it. “We brought some food!” dad exclaimed and took the basket full of food out of his trunk.“When did you manage to do it?” granny asked.“While you were playing in the amusement park, we ordered the food,” uncle explained.”It’s amazing!” I exclaimed.We started eating. There were a lot of sandwiches, bottles of coke, a big plate of salad and a huge cake. When we finished eating, Raf whispered:“Can we talk?”I nodded and he helped me to get up. I wanted to talk to him today too. And it was the best place and time for that conversation. We went a little bit farther and decided to go behind the huge stone.

    I went downstairs and sat at the table. There wasn’t Raf. We started eating. I was thinking of the words I had to tell him. Maybe I was stupid, but it meant a lot for me. It was the first time I had ever fallen in love with someone and something told me that it was the last time. I needed to know if it was a reciprocated love. When we were done, we went outside to sit in the car. There was Raf. He was like always sitting on his motorbike. Everyone sat in the car and I sat next to him on the bike. We were driving to the park. I wasn’t distancing myself, I took a hold of his waist and put my head on his back. He looked at me, surprised of my action. Yes, I was confusing. One second I could run I away, but the next second I would pull him in my embrace. And I hoped he would be the only one who understood me. When we arrived to the park, we parked the car and bike and went inside.“I want to ride on carousel!” grandma sc

    “Yes,” he answered.“But she said, that she wasn’t,” I said.“That’s for you to be okay. But I can see, how nervous she is. She is scared of dying, and it’s understandable,” dad said.“But is it dangerous?” I asked.“Every surgery is dangerous. But I’m sure that nothing bad will happen with her.”“That’s why she wants to have some fun, before it?” Linc asked.Uncle and dad nodded.“She wants to get distracted. And she wants to spend a lot of time with you, because she thinks that she won’t survive,” uncle added. “But we will make that day the best one. She has to relax and stop being nervous. Can’t it make everything worse?” I asked.“In some way yes, but don’t worry! Tomorrow we’ll make sure she will have a lot of fun. She will completely forget about her

    Next day, we had to go the doctor’s appointment. It looked like she had to get her first chemotherapy. I woke up at 7:30 and started getting ready. I wore a pair of jeans, white T-shirt and trainers. I made a ponytail and put on some gloss. I went downstairs and saw guys sitting on the couch with grandma. Uncle and dad were cooking breakfast. I sat on the couch and joined the conversation. I noticed that Raf wasn’t there. Probably, he went home last night.“Good morning!” I said.“Good morning!” everyone said back.“What are you talking about?”“Nothing interesting,” grandma answered.I nodded. I knew exactly that they were lying, but I didn’t want to push it. When breakfast was ready, we sat together at the table and started eating. Everybody was silent. I guess they were tensed about the chemotherapy. We knew that everything would change. Her hai

    He looked at his computer and started analyzing the results.“There is a pice of good news! It’s the first stage. It can be recovered. You just have to get some chemistry procedures and then the surgery will help you get better.”All of us breathed out.“How many procedures will there be?” I asked.“We can’t tell the exact amount, but not much,” he answered.“When can we start?” dad asked.“Come tomorrow at nine A.M.,” he said.“Thank you, Doctor,” dad stated and shook his hand.Uncle did the same. Then we left the hospital. “Don’t you want some ice cream?” granny asked us.“I do,” Linc answered.“Me too! Boys, buy some ice cream for us,” she tuned to uncle and dad.“Your wish is our command!” dad said.“We will go home! It’s such a fresh ai
