Chapter 2 : I swore you…
Abby was laying down on Luka's bed. Ryan wasn't here. She woke up, suddenly, and went to the living room. She saw Luka who was serving the breakfast to Ryan.
" Finish your breakfast and after we'll go to school."
"Okay. Oh! Mommy!" He said, seeing Abby.
"Hey, my prince."
Abby kissed him on the forehead.
" You know mommy. Luka made excellent pancakes! It's delicious. You should taste them.."
" Yes, I should..." Luka continued, given a plate with a pancake." Sit you, and eat."
" Where did you sleep?"
"In my bed."
"Sure?"
"It's a joke. I slept in the other bedroom."
"Oh.."
He smiled, amused.
" If you want... you can take a shower. I will drive Ryan to school."
"No!"
Ryan and Luka was surprised.
" I don't want to drive...Ryan to school... I will go."
" I wanted just...to help you..."
" I know.. but...". She whispered."Richard doesn't agreeabout this".
" What about?"
"About the fact you spend your time with Ryan."
" And you?"
"I agree... but... I don't want that hehit you, like me."
" I'm enough strong to defend myself. (He looked at Ryan) Hey guy? Have you finished?"
"Yes!"
" Come on! Here we go!"
Ryan jumped and ran to the door.
" Good day mommy!"
"Good day."
Luka looked at Abby.
" Stay here, I will return in 30 minutes."
"Okay".
He closed the door, Abby winced on account of her nose.
Abby moved into the flat. She stopped in front of a photography. It was Luka with a woman and two children. She jumped on herself when she heard :
"It's my wife and my children, Jasna and Marko.It's the only photography that I have."
"She was beautiful."
"Yeah."
He took the photo and put down on its place. He touched Abby's nose to check. She winced.
" You too.."
" What?" Abby asked surprised.
"You are beautiful, too..."
"Oh... no... I don't think.."
"Me... I think it."
"Thanks. Luka... I don't want that you make in danger for me..."
"Is hevery dangerous?"
"Yeah.. powerful."
"He's stupid and weak, if he canhit a woman, moreover his wife."
"How do you do?"
"What?"
" To be nice.."
" I don't know...I'm not really the nicest man on this planet...you know..."
"For me, yes."
They looked each other.
"Oh God! What happened to you, Abby?" Susan said.
" Nothing, the car door."
Luka, who followed her, didn't say anything. Abby threw a glance to him.
" You're deformed!"
" I know..."
Susan took Abby by the hand and led her outside.
" Who is it?"
" Nobody."
"Abby! Don't lie to me."
"Richard."
"Oh God! And Ryan?"
"He's fine."
"I hope that you left, this time!"
"I went to see Luka..."
" Richard will kill you, if he hears it."
" Why! Why, him, has the right to have sex with a lot of women? and me, I haven't the right to talk with a man?"
"It's injust, I know...He's stupid"
" Luka wants to call the police."
"He's right."
"I can't!"
"You must!"
Abby entered in the radiology room. Luka was here.
" Can I ask you something?"
"Yes, of course."
"Can you come with me, to see the police...?"
Luka took her hand.
" Yeah. I will come."
" Thanks."
" No, thanks... I swore you."
He took her by the waist and kissed her. Abby Abby moved back without leaving Luka of eyes. She saw that he felt guilty of his gesture. She made a step towards him and kissed him to aswer to his kiss.
