The Undoing of Kel

Lady Star

or

Astri Amaroq

IN THE FACT

Neal kissed me again today. and I still miss Cleon. Things aren't what they used to be. Mother and Father bicker a little. and mama's really sick. Cleon wants me to visit Kennan soon. To meet his family. Neal's too upset to care. or is it just making him more upset? Yuki and I . . . have out differences. Ten years have changed us. We can't really relate anymore. But want to reach back to each other and "the good times". But shes very if-y with Neal. He was talking to me today. We are all so confused.

"Its like she loves me today and doesn't the next. speed up. slow down. Hurry! Wait!". Kel smiled directly into her friends eyes for no reason. "Neal I must be honest," she said nonchalently, "I love you." A look of faint surprise crossed his face. But niether was surprised at this sudden openess.

"Kel, I know, I love you too."

"Good." she smiled back as he reached for her hand across the window bench. "But I love Yuki too." Regret and remorse fogged their faces.

"And I love Cleon."

"Why can't anyone just decide?" he suddenly blurted out.

"Because we're only humans." Disgust crossed his face.

"Too bad. and humans can't even decide on true love?" Kel looked at her beautiful, handsom baby. She couldn't bring herself to the love topic. Everytime, whether with Neal, Cleon, or Yuki, they would peal and hope, but deep insode they knew the truth. that it simply didn't exist.
