Chapter 3

Summer's back

We stood, silence surrounding both of us, I couldn't hear anything, I couldn't feel anything, my gaze locked in hers, I was barely aware of the world moving around me, no outline, just a blur, bright colors and the deep noise of the ceaseless waves of ambulances and people creating a comforting lullaby. Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

She suddenlty replaced a strand of hair behind her ear, waking me from my dreaming state, we looked at the ground at the same time, slowly trying to find the right words to say or just the sound of our voices. I had lost mine deep down in the pit of my stomach, maybe she too.

I saw her open her mouth and then close it almost immediatly, like she didn't trust herself, like her own thoughts were too numerous, like she was stray between the various melodies playing in her head. Like my restless mind, and my beating heart.

"I'm... I'm sorry." She whispered, her fingers tracing the line of a small dark bracelet she was wearing on her white wrist. " I know I shouldn't have... I shouldn't be here."

I had to look up, so she could see in my eyes my fear to let her vanish again, afraid not to be able to speak, and only scream for her to stay, my hands gripped the letter, like I could hug her, closer to my body, never ever far from me. Like I could hug her.

"I just..." She started to talk really fast almost agitated, her bracelet dancing with the gesture of her hands. "Do you, do you think I could have the letter back, I'm sorry..." I could see tears forming in her gaze. "I'm not sure... I could live without it."

And I wasn't sure how I could have lived without her.

"Never mind, sorry." She turned and walking away, faster with each step, my heart beating violently in my chest, faster with each step.

For a second I saw the world like it had existed during those sixteen years, I hated it, it was there again despite the many drinks which I had though could have made it disappear, it was there again and laughed at me. I openned my mouth and then closed it almost immediatly. Not now.

"It waves."

She stopped and schowed me her sweet face, she was crying, and I was too. It was me against my old world, and I wasn't going to let it win, not this time, not now.

"What ?"

"Your hair... It waves."

There was a smile in my mind, but Icouldn't tell if it was on my lips, I was frozed, and so was she, except maybe the smile which gently appeared on her own lips. And softly colors became clearer, the environnement around us found its forms, Kerry's voice its natural irritated tone.

"Abby we need you in Trauma one, would you please..."

And the girl smiled for real, like she was giving me her approbation, silently promise me she wouldn't leave me alone, that me following Kerry din't mean never see her again, like she hugged me from where she was standing. Like my restless mind, and my beating heart.

"I'm off in an hour..."

She nodded with her big brown eyes, wrapped her coat tightly around herself, and wipped the tears on her cheeks, I had never seen a more beautiful person, I felt lucky.

"I'll wait for you."

And as I reentered in the hospital, the world was murmuring sweet songs in my head...

Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
