Chapter 34
7 AM came awfully early, but you had made it. The van was all packed and you
were ready to go. Trouble was, you had a nightmare about Isaac last night. But it had
seemed so real. You dreamt Isaac was coming to tell you good bye and got in a car
crash that killed him instantly. The horror of was he was running late. Which made it
seem so real. Which then led you to do some thinking.
Pacing in the lobby, you had your back turned to the door. Isaac walked in and
camed in behind you and wrapped his arms around you.
You walk forward, escaping his grasp.
“Look, Isaac, I have been thinking. And....”
“.... so have I. And I have some good news for you. But mine can wait. What
were you going to say?”
“I was going to say.... well.... I think.... we should.... Isaac.... I think we should
break it off.”
“What?” He practically yells at you. “What about last night? No, you can’t do this.
Not now. I won’t let you.”
“Look, I know you have your career going now. I think you should stay with that
and make a big success at it...”
“....but...” he cuts in.
“Wait, Isaac, let me finish. Just concentrate on your music.” Tears start to well up
in your eyes. Isaac steps forward and tries to give you a hug. You put your hand out.
“Please, don’t. It’s your dream. I don’t want to be in your way.” The tears are now
pouring down your face. “Isaac, I love you. I love you with my heart. I would do
anything for you. I would die for you. Don’t you understand. I love you like I’ve never
loved anything else before in my entire life. Just give it time. Please? As the career
settles, look me up.”
“Christina? Are you ready to go?” Mr. James shouts to you from the other side of
the car.
“Look, I have to go. I am sorry things didn’t work out.” You kiss your fingers and
press them against his lips, turn and jump in the van with tears streaming down your
face. He stands there beside the van, and for the first time, you see him cry.
As you are pulling away you wave to him, but he just stands there, looking like he
is in shock. You slip your headphones on and put the CD on random play. The first
song that plays is “I Will Come To You.” Then you cry yourself to sleep.
