Quite Feelings
Man, was she pretty….see her? Walking down the hall with Kevin Winnicot. She had short brown hair, her green eyes were covered by her glasses, but even behind the glass her eyes looked brilliant. She, like all the others, like me and Kevin, wore her usual Vector uniform.
They passed by me, ignoring me, not bothering to say at least "Hi.", talking about their next project, like always, I sighed. Why had I fallen for someone like her? Someone whose heart was now with another.
The Vector Banquet had come too early, or least I think it was. That day everyone left their uniforms behind, and the men wore suits, black in color, and any showy dress the women could find. I had in my hand a glass of wine, looking at Kevin and Shion, as they were dancing. Kevin just like me, wore a black suit. Shion wore a white dress, her glasses left behind, her green eyes flashed with happiness.
I glared at the pair. Why did I glare, the unknown feeling got me….why? Why was I angry? I shouldn't be…..should I? I saw how Kevin had kneeled before Shion, holding a small box, Shion gasped then nodded. "Yes," I heard her say. "Yes, I'll marry you."
Those words hit me hard. Everyone cheered when they heard those words, they rushed to Kevin and Shion, congratulating them. The women hugged Shion, the men shook hands with Kevin.
No one noticed me leave, I thought so……then I heard a familiar voice in the dark hall behind me. "You´re not going to congratulate the soon husband and wife to be?" he asked. I had my back facing him, so I couldn't see the man´s face.
"I well….I suddenly didn't feel well…"
"Good excuse." Was the man´s sincere reply.
" What about you? Why aren't you with them?" I asked.
"Well, I don't like group meetings….especially those kinds."
" Good excuse….I guess…" I heard him chuckled.
" Well then….it seems I take that as payback." I heard him walking towards me, I turned my back on him, as he patted my shoulder. " You seem a little sad…." He let go. "See you…then…" He walked away.
" Yeah…bye…." That voice, that man, why did he sound so familiar? I walked the other way opposite to where the man had been walking, the dark hall engulfed me, as it engulfed my broken heart….why did I fall for someone like her? Someone whose heart was now with another…..
