Parsley

My Sandwich! He ate a bit and threw most of it away! Threw it away!' Ross ranted, stomping threw the park In the bin!' he yelled at a passer by making him run away. Why was he walking in this direction? He hated this direction. It was a thoroughly hateful direction. It should be abolished Ross turned to see Emily staring at him in horror.

What are you doing here?' he demanded. She'd broken his heart, she hadn't trusted him now she was there to taunt him because someone had stolen his sandwich. She took a step back on the path.

Oh my God,' she said looking scared.

Oh Emily,' he said, suddenly realising it really was her, she was there, there to see him, this was his chance to make everything all right. That was his Emily standing in front of him. Maybe things weren't so terrible after all Emily,' but she was backing away some more, Emily just talk to me,' he pleaded.

I never knew you were like this,' she said, sounding frightened. No-one told me.'

Told you what?' he asked puzzled. She had to stay and talk to him but every step he took towards her resulted in a step backwards from her. Sweetie don't do thatYou're mad,' Emily said.

Yeah, I am mad,' he said, Someone stole my sandwich. I'd left a note on it and everything and he stole it, he didn't even eat all of it, he just threw the rest away. It was my sandwich from Thanksgiving, of course I'm mad – why are you backing away.'

Why didn't they tell me you were insane?' she asked in horror. How could they let me marry you knowing that?'

What? I'm not insane, what made you think I was insane?' He tried to bluff it out with a laugh. Of course if she'd seen the last five minutes I just have an anger management problem, just a small one, I'm going to see someone for it, it will be fixed in no time.' That didn't seem to be helping his cause. In fact she shivered.

I never knew,' Emily said. Oh my God I wanted to talk to you.' She had her arms across her body holding her coat closed as if that would give her protection against him. He had to stop this, he had to explain.

I'm not normally like this, this is totally out of character, it's not me at all, I'm just – ' he tried to bridge the gap between them.

Get away from me!' Emily screamed, turning tail and running.

Emily,' he called, running after her. Oh no not again. He'd have to catch her this time. Everyone would laugh at him, even more than they were already. Emily was smaller than him, how could she be faster?

Help!' she screamed and before he knew it he was tackled to the ground. His head banged on the ground almost knocking him out.

Oh no, not again,' he groaned. By the time he'd finished explaining himself she was long gone.
