« Hurgh!! »
Chris Chambers looked up from the couch and grinned. He sighed with a smile as he watched his best friend knock his head on his wooden desk one more time. It had been a common sight in the last few days.
« What's wrong now? » Chris asked
« I can't, Chris! » Gordie nearly screamed as Chris started to laugh. « I can't write anymore! I'm warning you! There will be no more nice stories from Gordon Lachance, from now on! »
Gordie carefully put his pencil back in the case on his desk as if being careful not to break it. Well, he thought, it's not too silly, after all. If I break it the writer's block might get even bigger!
Flowers were blooming in the trees again and it anounced the beginning of a new spring. The rebirth of nature. The pale blue sky seemed enchanting, as the bare trees and birds singing outside.
« Look at this, Chris! The world is a giant colorful musical! Just as I'm about to die! » he stated dramatically.
« You're not going to die, Lachance. Come on, you can't write anymore; what's the big deal? It's not like you had a brain tumor something… »
« Maybe I do! Maybe that's why I can't write! »
Chris glanced at his watch and laughed briefly again, as his friend kept moaning on and on about an undiscovered brain injury. Chris picked up his coat and began to put it on as he walked backwards, towards the door. Suddenly, Gordie realised what his friend was doing.
« Hey, wait a minute! I might have a brain tumor, but I can see you're trying to leave! »
« Man, I have to go, I've got an interview in ten minutes… »
« An interview with who? The panties of a cute girl? »
« No, actually, since I don't have a girl, but that'll come too. »
« Interview for what? »
« Can't tell you! I'll get back to you! » he stormed out of the house and started to run down the street, feeling the blood and adrenaline pump harder and faster through his veins, feeling his breath coming rougher, as sand paper in his throat. After a couple of blocks, he could see the building where he was heading, dark in the distance. All that because of his brother. His damned brother.
