~No! this isn't possible. She can't be her,~ he thought as his mind raced to find an apparent alternative. He watched he stand and apologize. Then he heard himself, as if from another's ears say
"your such a klutzy ditz, you should watch where your going meatball head," then he watched the look of horror cross her face.
"Meatball head!!!!" she screeched "ill remember never to apologize to you again." she said stomping away, and missing the look of longing on his face. These episodes reoccurred daily. And always ended the same; with Serena stomping off in a rage.
Darien had graduated collage at the top of his class and was now M.D at St. Josephs general hospital, working with cancer and treatments for it. But for lunch he still went to have his daily quarrel with Sere.
One day he showed up before her, right then he suspected something was wrong. She walked in with the group of girls she always hung out with. Their eyes were clouded by tears and tears trails smudged their rosy cheeks. In the middle of the group was Serena her normal glow seemed dim. Suddenly wanting her to be her radiant, enthusiastic self he said: "Hey meatball head have another klutz attack today?" she looked at him with calm eyes, which didn't resemble the girl he knew for 2 years 3 months 8 days and ahh……6 hours. Instead of screaming and getting that scandalous look on her that pretty face of hers she walked over and sat next to him. Then she did something that he'd never believed she'd do, she took one of his hand in hers then she looked into his eyes. Then she spoke. With a sweet tone.
" Darien, I know that we haven' t been at the best of terms and that we fight a lot. But I really want to be your friend. I think that it would be in the best interests of both of us." she sounded so sincere and unsure. Her eyes drew him he didn't understand what was going on but he sensed, deep with in that something was wrong, gravely wrong. "well?" she said snapping him back.
"S-sure," hellfire, now she got him stuttering.
" Great, "she said perking up, and getting some color back. She after getting up and letting go of his hand he was ready to skip away. Darien's hand shot out and caught her wrist. And she turned and her eyes inquired him.
"Serena, is their something wrong?" he asked as her eyes suddenly turned wary and looked down at the ground.
"No , nothings wrong," she said as she slipped her hand out of his. His deep blue eyes clouded over with worry as her and the girls left. All clustering around Serena.
Later that day after having read and prepared for class Darien walked along the sidewalk to the park. It was about 7pm and the sun still shown the bright blue heavens. As hard as he tried he couldn't seem to get Serena out of his head. She'd invaded his thoughts ever since her truce. He knew something was wrong, he just knew.
~What are the chances she'd tell me anyway.~ eh asked himself. ~she just did it because she got tired of arguing with me day in and day out~
~maybe she wants to get to know you, maybe she wants to BE with you~ his inner thoughts answered.
Shaking his head he looked forward and saw the silhouetted figure of a young girl. She looked more like an angel than a woman. Golden locks of hair mirrored her and 2 buns were tied atop her head. When she turned he recognized Serena. She had a peaceful look on her face as if she was content with just sitting there and enjoying the beautiful images around her.
He walked closer as if spellbound by her beauty. The sereneness of it. When he stopped behind her she finally realized someone stood in back of her and slowly turned around
`"Darien!! Hi how long have you been standing there?" she asked putting a smile on her face.
"not long," I answer. I can't insult her, not now, not after she asked me to be her friend. She smiled and turned her head back to the pond. While I seated myself next to her." look at how peaceful this place is, as if nothing is out of place and everything is nothing less than perfection." she said with a far away look on her face.
Its's not that perfect you know. Everything here is moving and changing. Things are being born, and things are dying. No, this isn't even close to perfect." ~but you are Usako, Your perfect.~ I sigh im just tormenting myself, by thinking these thoughts.
"wow, Darien I never looked at it that way she said with a small smile. Thanks. I have to go. Mom is bound to kill me if I don't get home in time for dinner. I'll see you later Darien. She said runung off.
"goodbye…….Usako" he whispered.
"your such a klutzy ditz, you should watch where your going meatball head," then he watched the look of horror cross her face.
