He was in his room, thinking again of something that was missing. But as he looked into the corner, he noticed that the furniture's there, the cabinets all in mess, and tools were lying around his room. Normal as it could have been, still it felt empty, was it because of the lack of action? The suspense? Or was it the thrill of an adventure? And for a moment there, he thought that it was the "adventure", something awesome that happened as a big part of his small life. But in reality, he missed something more, or was it someone? A girl maybe? A girl that goes by the name..
"Monica… "
His soft voice regretted even telling the name, as his face now melted into what was now a frown. He sat in his bed with knees close to his face, still hoping that she would come in and barge into his room, asking to go with her into one of her crazy quests. Now, that would be fun he thought, being with her that is. As the memories once again span around his now smiling face.Really now, what did he really feel for her? A partner on wild adventures? Or someone he could have shared a hug with, a kiss even.
"If only I could go back in time.. Would've told her… When would... Ugh.. Wha… What difference does it make anyway?!"
He suddenly stood up, picking up a wrench in hand and raising his arm preparing to throw the thing not caring where or whoever it hits. But as his breathing began to slow, something so familiar to him wept from his eyes, a tear, so quiet yet so powerful. Unlike his feelings for her, which were so strong yet so quiet because he was too afraid to tell her, so opposite, yet with the same vague reasons that these damn things appear so is not a mystery to anyone who ever feels them.
Mostly not for him…
With a last gasp of anger, he suddenly straightened himself up, with tears now dry from his face, and looked outside the window for a view of the great day. Then he pondered…
"Maybe its time I move on…"
Without warning the door slowly opens, revealing a feminine figure, looking at him with eyes filled with joy, accompanied by smiling lips…
"So… You still need me?"
