Idiots

10 of August

I kicked a can from the street, angrily looking at my distorted reflection in the small pool of water the rain left behind. I had an argument with her... I felt betrayed. Mana just wanted me for my money, which I didn’t even have much. It was a horrible feeling, to know you've just been used. I wanted to shout, I wanted to cry, even if she didn’t even deserve it. While I was walking, I saw Yuuki with Celeste, they were going towards me. –Hey, Peter… you seem down.- She said, I barely could hide the tears, but I managed. –I’m okay… what are you doing here?- I asked, hiding my issues. –I’m going to Yuuki’s house.- Yuuki almost looked embarrassed, but then he noticed me looking to the floor, almost as if hiding something. –I suppose I’ll just grab a bite to eat, I hope you have a nice day.- As I was going, Yuuki stopped me putting his hand in my arm. –Are you ok?- I turned my head down again. –I don’t wanna bother you with my problems, also, I was never your friend.- Yuuki turned his head from left to right. –Never considered you my friend either, but any friend of Celeste’s is a friend of mine.- Was this guy such an idiot? –You just contradicted yourself.- -Did I?- Yuuki looked at Celeste for an answer. –You did.- -Anyway, mind if we make you company?- Yuuki said quickly. –Weren’t you going to hang out at your house?- Yuuki shrugged. –We can do that any other day.-

They hanged out with me at the ramen shop. It started to rain again, and I didn’t know what to say. I told them everything that happened, that I started going out with the part worker over here, and she just scammed me out of my money, always asking me to buy things for her. –Some people are really fucked up.- Said Yuuki. –Don’t worry man, we’ll be here for you. If you have any troubles just give me a call, we’ll go around or something. Might even go chick hunting with my roommate.- For someone I wanted to hate, he made it really difficult when he made me laugh. Celeste hitted him on his arm with her elbow, showing a smile on her face... he really made her happy. –You helped me out a lot toda- I found my phrase interrupted as Mana entered, I didn’t give her the satisfaction of even meeting so much as my eyes. –Anyway, I’m going back to my apartment. I’ll ask my parents to lend me some money and I’ll give it back whenever I can.- I walked out of the establishment, and while I was still depressed due to all the events that happened, at the very least I had something good: people that actually care about me. Both Yuuki and Celeste came after me, or well... Yuuki carying Celeste's wheelchair. -Hey, we'll keep you company until you get home. It's never good being alone in times like this.- I nodded smiling while thinking to myself... why are the both of you such lovable idiots?
