{ Chapter 13 }

I walked randomly in the neighbourhoods... without precise goals, except perhaps forgetting what she announced to me or at least to be convinced that it's a bad dream...

But nothing made there. All my thoughts are on top. She had said to me that we moved the next month... what's in one week and 5 days exactly.

It wasn't enough: one week to acknowledge with my friends that I leave them. UNFAIR!

These thoughts whirled in my head.... I didn't even look at where I go .... until... I sink in somebody:

- MATT!

- Amy? Why do you have red eyes? You cried?

I hadn't even realized it yet. I couldn't tell him, therefore I tried to hide my eyes reddened by lowering the head.

- What's up?

-.... Nothing...

It was too much. I wasn't able to lie to him. I ran. I heard it behind me:

- Amy!... Wait! Did I said something bad? Amy!...

Ah! Then no! He deserved to know... he was my best friend, after all.

No! I couldn't. It would be too hard! I would like to stop running, but I wasn't able.

He finished by catching me... He took to me by the shoulders:

- Shhh... calm down. Tell me everything.

- NO!

I got clear, leaving it there. I wanted more than all to tell him, to jump in his arms, but I couldn't. I was already too far.... too far in my actions and my words. And my thoughts. I needed to make the vacuum.

He didn't try to catch me. He remained there, as if he had understood.

UNFAIR!!!!!………
