Then I see you standing there
There she was, staring through the window, it had been five hours since her dad passed away silently in the hospital room
She looked so vulnerable but yet so strong, had managed to keep her tears in her eyes since her dad arrived to the hospital, but in that moment in the apparent loneliness of the room tears begun their bitter journey through her face .
He felt helpless, his friend was suffering but his mind couldn't form a single coherent sentence, so he just took her hand to show that he was a shoulder where she could rely on, and so she did, literally
Thats when it happened, she looked at him with her watery eyes, and he melted, when she whispered " thank you...Daniel".
He rested his head in her forehead and while he said "its a pleasure..." he thought seriously Daniel! You have nothing else to say?!.
But he remained silent, and so did she.
They stared at the window while rain started to fall silently as Betty's tears.
After a while he spoke " come on..." he looked at her,tears where almost dry "...let me buy you something to eat..."
She replied, mechanically, "Im not hungry".
But her stomach disagreed as it made a strange noise while her face blushed with all the colors of the rainbow.
Making him tease her "of course you are not hungry, you are just...starving"
She couldn't prevent a little laugh to come out her mouth.
Fair enough, he thought, as they walked through the room door, still holding hands.
