"Larry-Boy and Brio-Girl" Chapter 7

Larry was still pondering over what had happened earlier as he walked Petunia home. It was the least he could do after what
they had gone through. Their walk was awkwardly silent, and as they were approaching her apartment Petunia finally broke the
silence.

"Did you have a nice time, I mean, besides almost getting killed?"

"Um, yeah, it was ok."

"Oh, so you didn't think it was anything special?"

Larry tried to search for the right words, especially since he had already gone way over his head asking her on a picnic, but he
couldn't help it. He really liked her, ... and that was the problem.

"Uh,... it was interesting."

As they stepped on the doorstep, Petunia looked at Larry and said, "You know, I think it's nice that we can still be friends after
what happened."

"Yeah," Larry said. "Well, see ya."

"Yeah, um, bye."

As Larry left, he couldn't help thinking that he was so dumb for what he did, but he knew that he couldn't go back. After all,
he had no choice in making the decision. It really was a matter of life and death, and even the proudest of people would've
made the same choice as he did, but his heart was still broken. He decided to go back home and soak his sorrows in a
bubble bath. Little did he know that on the other side of the door, Petunia leaned against the wall, her heart just as hurt.
