Acquiesce
1st step, 2nd step, and run, run, run...
Running this is the only method that keeps my boring life burning. Every morning 6:15 precisely I jog to the park stretch my aching muscles a bit and then run.
Usually I take up about 40 minutes to roam around with my usual route but today I decided against it. I went to the next street curve and run up to the hill.
I love this adrenaline that I can get through running I feel like its transporting me to different dimensions, like in the movies where I am so fast running but the view or place is slowing down as I run. I don't know. As a kid, I was not that let's say athletic as today. I was the sick kid on the corner of the room.
Yes, sick kid because I had cancer when I was 11years old. Leukemia. Low white blood cells as they might say medically. I don't want to talk about it because my mom tends to be emotional when somebody mentions it. But now the doctors said that I'm well enough. Long gone cancer. Fuck' em as my best mate Cook said. So finally I decided to practice my mom's healthy fucking side.
After jogging, walking and running around, my feet brought me back to central park where I usually spend my after-run regiment. I sat on an empty bench beside me and think about my wanker assistant Poppy. Poppy is not a wanker she's beautiful that's why I hired her secondary to her skills but sometimes she's dumb like dumb and dumber or something. How hard is it to file latest financial cases that I requested from her? Today I ask her to go Mr. Day and inquire for the new case that he was talking about. I hope she does that, if she didn't, God knows what will happen to me, Almighty Attorney Naomi Emilia Campbell.
"Fucking shit." I said as I exhale with a sigh
"What fucking shit?" "Oh! JESUS LORD!" I exclaim as a burly haired kid sit beside me.
"My mama said and miss using the name of the Good Lord is naughty." the kid said.
He has this adorable grin spread across his face while speaking.
"I .. Uh well you scared me to death that's why I uh said it"
"You have a weird accent like my mama and auntie" he said.
"I don't know about your mama but I am from London, people their have a weird accent." I replied.
"Oh okay." he look across the trees and just stare. I look to where he was staring.
Silence.
"Why are you alone? Where is your mama?" I asked wondering.
"My mama's not here I'm with my auntie"
"Where is she why does she let you roam around alone?" I asked.
"She's just taking a IMPORTANT call. She's a doctor." "Oh. Right." I said. I am definitely charmed with this kid beside me. His eyes with beautifully shade of brown, his cute button nose and blonde hair his really adorable.
I look at my digital watch which I wore every run I take. 6:40 I have only 20 minutes to go back home, have a quick breakfast and a quick change for work. But I as I was over thinking about this I can't help to think about the boy. I can't leave him here.
"Where is your auntie now? I reckon by now she's finished with her IMPORTANT call. Where is your mama by the way? You talk about her a lot." I fired so many questions to a small boy.
"First, I don't know where she is, secondly, I don't know where she is." he answered.
This boy is really clever for his age. I wonder what is age is.
"What? What do you mean you don't know where you're mom is? Because maybe she's at home cooking your breakfast you know? "The boys looks down and tears starting to appear in his eyes.
"Hey mate! I'm sorry doing cry "I put my arm around his little body.
"My mama passed away."
