Chapter 10. There are no words worth it…
Does depression hurt this much? Why wasn't I there in perfect time for him? If only I wasn't sick.
What if I wasn't in time… What if I were a moment late…
But it could've been worse.
Apparently, Luke will be in a coma… I don't know how long… but he will be unresponsive, dangerously pale, and blue lips. Like in the parking lot.
As if he really were dead.
My brothers and I sat next to Luke's bed at the hospital, I held his cold hand, pressing my warmth into him.
Does depression hurt this much? Why wasn't I there in perfect time for him?
What if I wasn't in time…What if I were a moment late…
I let those questions chant in my head over and over. Wondering when my mind would die of boredom of it and think of something that will lighten the mood.
But nothing could lighten my mood.
Nothing could lighten any of our moods.
Damon didn't say anything that would let him keep his optimistic attire in place. Jeremy, was quiet as usual, but he was silent now, eyes filled with soundless tears. Zeke was paying twice as much attention, and was being quite responsible for a stupidly curious guy like him.
And I couldn't believe Jayce.
Jayce-the loudest, talkative, most entertaining of us all, wasn't his actual retarded, carefree-hearted self now. In fact, he looked so…mature. That part of him is hard to dig up, he was like…the big brother he was always supposed to be, considering he was the oldest.
But without Luke, I guess it was difficult to be ourselves. Like we were all a big random puzzle that had fitted perfectly together, but now the last piece was missing. And the last piece is the most important piece of the whole thing…to make the puzzle complete, and so that the puzzle made sense to what it was showing.
Luke was that last piece, and without him what sense did we make? What was it showing?
It was showing just four teens with different points of views and different personalities. And they are the same, in some way.
You may be thinking right now "What? I'm confused…" Exactly! Of course you're confused…because what's the point in understanding…if the puzzle is not complete, not showing you the point of why it was created and put together.
Luke was the puzzle piece that was a complete opposite of us. He was the mature, protective, responsible brother that anyone would need to keep a family like us together, safe, and…happy. That's why he made our puzzle perfect.
Try to think about these words, and try to understand them, but right now I know that tomorrow we have to go to school, and we could visit Luke some other time.
I love you Luke, I thought. Please wake up soon.
I'm really sorry! I know it was short, but I wanted to keep this chapter to match the title. Sorry if it disappointed you, but I can't make a story that's supposed to be happy…all depressing. It takes a lot out of me! I'll update in about two days…expect it then. Love you all and thanks for the reviews! But tell me what you think about this chapter.
