Too late

Henry runs, he runs with two words fixed in his mind and a face in front of his eyes.

He runs because he isn't afraid of his feelings anymore.

He runs and curses for all that opportunities he lost cause of his too rationality and coldness.

Even if it hasn't been always this way. Once he was a "skater", he called so himself, he danced and sang with his friends, he had a lot of fun… But then in the Collage everything changed, his heart became a stone's heart and his fun was to get the higher grade at the last exam. If someone asked him the reason of his change he had no answer, because there wasn't an answer. Simply, Henry woke up full of responsibility and understood world's adults.

And it was fine for Henry, seriously, he had all of he needed a well-payed work, a comfortably home, his chicken salad in the weekend…

But everything is changed, again, an hurricane arrived messing up his life. Eliza Dooley.

Eliza entered his life so suddenly and forcefully that he couldn't stop her. And from that moment problems started, because Eliza was The Problem. Her head was always in the clouds, most of time she asked but didn't listen to the advices, too taken from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and others socials that were her shelter. Henry didn't accept her dressing too provocatively and her trying with all men, especially he felt sick when he saw her hugging Freddy. They were friends, yes, and this was fine until Eliza chose to show him herself naked. There were nothing to do, that girl threw into confusion his quiet everyday life.

And, he had to admit, it was damn good for him.

Because it was not him that was changing Eliza, but Eliza that was changing Henry. She was teaching him to live a rich life.

And now Henry understood, he really understood and he has no more fear. He understood that Eliza is everything he needs, that she is his complementary part, that together they are an unbeatable team, and he isn't no more afraid to admit it. He needed to fall by the skate to understand and accept his feelings, and now he has no fear.

And Henry runs, he runs to say everything to Eliza, to not lost another opportunity, to live completely , end, although he is nervous and his heart beats very strong, he won't stop because he has no fear.

He arrives and stops to calm down and then to play the bell. And an Eliza in t-shirt and shorts opens to him. "Henry, what are you doing here?" "Eliza… Eliza I have to talk to you" Henry says and then stops to take a breath and look her. She is very beautiful without all of the makeup she uses… "Eliza, finally I understood…" and, while he was talking, he listened to a voice, that voice and the world fall down on his shoulders, followed by the consciousness, the one of always. And Eliza is there waiting for Henry's answer, an answer that will never arrive because, again, Henry is too late.
