I was thinking of the strange mask girl until I remembered something important: I completely forgotten Janet! How could I do that? I just left her there! To die! Great, now she's going to hate me if she makes it! And she was my 'friend' when I got here. And I left her there. I'm a horrible friend. To leave her knocked out in that room.
Tears were forming as I continued to think of what I've done. I wasn't a friend. I was selfish. I only cared about myself and getting out of there... not once did Janet's safety came into mind. How could I do that to her...? She'll never forgive me... Maybe I deserved it...
I couldn't do anything to help her... she was bleeding and I didn't do anything to help. Great... she was really going to hate me. I did get her wounded by getting in the way by making her to worry about me and I've abandoned her there.
I only cared about myself, not caring about anyone else. "Darn it..." I whispered as I placed a hand over my eyes, preventing anyone else to possibly seeing me.
If it was any other of the Avengers, they wouldn't have let Janet get wounded like that. They wouldn't have run like I did. They would have stayed and fight along side her... instead of getting in the way... like me.
I was useless...
"Darn it!" I whispered louder as I was now angry with myself. I just let her get hurt. It was all my fault! I was to blame! I was in the way! I was useless! I hated myself! I only cared about myself. What 'friend' would just abandon another friend?
"Are you ok Jett?"
A female voice asked softly, shocking me. Quickly wiping my eyes, I look up and saw her, the person I've abandoned, Janet. "Yeah," I lied, struggling to sit up. Wait! How long was she there? Did she see me? "Don't," she said softly, then walking toward me. "I'm fine." I replied than laying back down.
"Why were you crying than?"
She asked me, sitting down on the bed. No! I couldn't believe that she saw me! No, no, no!
"Are you ok?"
She asked softly. I'm sure of it. She saw me crying. "I'm sorry..." I whispered. "What?" she said slowly, not hearing me. "I'm sorry that I've left you." I told her, looking up at her. "It's ok," she told me softly, her voice calm and caring, not angry at all. Why? Why wasn't she furious with me? She should completely hate me! I just abandoned her! "Why aren't you angry with me?" I ask softly, confused by her reaction. "Why would I be angry with you?" she asked slowly, smiling at me.
"I just left you there. I only cared about myself. You should hate me."
I told her than looking away, ashamed of what I've done. "Jett," she said to me. "Look at me." she told me, not a hint of rage in her voice. Why? Looking up at her and saw her smiling for some reason. "I'm not angry." she told me suddenly. "You were just scared and you wanted to get away from it." she added slowly. "So I don't blame you, nor do I hate you Jett." she said, making me to realize... that she wasn't angry in the first place.
"And besides, why would I be angry with my best friend?"Janet asked, more cheerfully.
"Best friend?" I said slowly, shocked by what she said. "But we only met just yesterday. How could we be best friends?" I asked slowly. "Yesterday or our entire life, we would always be best friends. Never forget that." she told me. I smiled at her.
"Thank you."
