Chapter Ten: Pushed Around
Seshama put a hand on Shannon's shoulder and said, "Calm down, you know I didn't mind." Shannon shook his head and said,
"No, I hurt Matt, all the things that he has done for me and I dropped him...I don't think he will ever forgive me let alone Jeff." Shannon looked to Seshama with shame in his eyes. They had now turned a deep blue gray.
"Shannon listen, Jeff will forgive you, Matt attacked you first and was beating the shit out of you...Matt had...he had it coming to him!" Shannon looked up from his sitting position on his suit case and said,
"Sassy, I don't know, I just don't know." Seshama kneeled down in front of him and smiled.
"You do know. You know that Jeff will forgive you." Shannon rubbed his face with his hands and said,
"I was so sick of being pushed around, Matt just went too far, I had to do something, anything to get it through his head that I wasn't his follower anymore, that no more could he push me around, no more was I his lackey, no more was I a child in anyone's eyes...but his." Shannon clenched his fists and unclenched them.
"You were pushed to the edge Shannon, things happen I understand. Just chill. I am Jeff's girlfriend he will forgive you. He has to; you are one of his blood members. Trust me, not much can keep Jeff from his best friend. You all have beat Matt into the ground, now was your turn." Seshama patted Shannon on the shoulder and smiled. Shannon put a hand over hers and squeezed. She than left the room.
