In some ways, choosing Christian was like being born.
As crazy as it sounds – there's nothing innocent about their relationship, after all – Syed is like a child being guided by a parent. Christian holds his hand, leads him forward, teaching him to talk, to walk, to breathe…
At first, the fear is all-consuming. But days pass; Syed's confidence grows; uncertain tottering evolves into unwavering steps.
Christian frets like a harangued mother; fussing, caring, reassuring. Syed doesn't doubt his pride – but worry bleeds from his face.
Because Syed has spent long enough strapped into his pushchair.
It's time to start walking.
Thank you for reading! I love having such random prompts - they really stretch me. The challenge is awesome!
