Passions: 100 Tears Away
*Note: The words inside these: * is lines to a song I know. I do not own the song in anyway. Just to get you into the mood of the song, it's slow and has a steady beat.
Theresa went home that night in tears. She ran from the Crane estate shortly after Ethan said-
No. She put a gaurd around her mind to keep from re-thinking those awful words. Mama had stayed with Ivy and Luis was mantaining everything. Miguel, of course, went to his Charity.
Theresa didn't think that Ethan saw her leave. She didn't turn back to find out. She knew that Ethan was going through a hard time but still, Ethan hurt her with his words. As much as she wanted to stay and comforted him, she knew that he would not acccept the comfort she had to offer.
So Theresa went home.
She just couldn't fool herself, as much as she tried.
So she changed out of the evening gown and into some pajamas.
Then Theresa shut the door and turned the radio on, hoping that that would help her forget, not that anything really could.
A song she had never heard before was playing.
*Go ahead and cry now
Just give in to the maddness
The only way to feel your joy
Is first to feel you sadness
Go ahead and sail now
Just give in to the ocean
The only way to tame your fear
Is to tame her rocky motion
You're a long way from somewhere you call home
There's a place in your heart, your not alone
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
It's closer than you think
It's just 100 tears away
Go ahead and listen
Just give in to the voices
Yow think you're backed into a corner
But you've got so many choices
You're a long way from somewhere you feel safe
Peace of mind comes from just one place
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
It's closer than you think
It's just 100 tears away*
Theresa couldn't hold back any longer. The tears spilled like milk in a
5-year-old's grimey hands.
Ethan's last words that he had said to her that night rang in her ears, "Theresa, how could you keep this from me?" His face was hurting by dishonesty from his mother, his supposed father, and her. "How could you?! Theresa!" Theresa couldn't answer him.
She tried to explain that she just didn't want him to be hurt but he was just so stubborn and he wouldn't listen. Theresa couldn't imagine how much betrayal he felt. With the last cold hard look Ethan said to her, words she only had heard in nightmares, "I can't marry you."

Background voices: *Whatever it is that'll make you feel good
You can have if you want
If you knew that you could*
*It's closer than you think
Just 100 tears away*
Theresa hugged her pillow and cried endlessly. As the song drew to a close she clicked of her radio.
Then she said aloud to the empty room, "If it's 100 tears away, I'm already way past my limit..."
She cried still. She couldn't imagine what was happening at the Crane manison. 'He probably is glad I'm gone.' Theresa thought, 'Or maybe he never even noticed I left.'
She cried still.
