Kapitel 27: Excellent Hand-Eye Coordination

MIKAYLA

I wake up the next morning in my hometown in my room. I can not help but had a great night's sleep in the safety of my dad's house. I have woken up a few times at night, afraid but then, just knowing that I am back in my dad's house made me sleep again.

I still can not believe that something like that happened to me and I wonder how I will ever return back to the city. But I tell myself not to think about that now because I know that I just need to get back some sort of security.

I smell a delicious aroma coming from the kitchen and as I stand up to find my way to the kitchen but then a thought suddenly jumps into my head.

"Oh god!"

How could I have forgotten about Luke? I should have met him at the cafe last night. He must think that I am not interested in him. I fall down on my bed with my face in my pillow as I think of what a big idiot I have been. Why didn't I just gave him my number?

I am such an idiot! Now on top of feeling scared, I also feel like I have wasted probably one of the best times I could have had.

LUKE

I feel like a fool just sitting here waiting for her to come. I must have misread the signs that she sent out. I probably saw more into this than she did. I can not help but feel somehow defeated.

Then I think back at her facial expressions was when she was the one that suggested that we meet tonight. I am sure that she was happy to meet here. I must say that this is a new feeling for me because usually, I get what I want.

I have never been let down by any girl when I tried to pick them up. I do not really know what to do with this feeling. I look down and stare at the bottle of wine that was meant for me and her.

I decide to drown my sorrows and I open the bottle. I make sure to fill my glass up to the top. I take a few big gulps of my wine and even though the wine is perfectly made, it somehow tastes sour. As I hang my head low and just stare at the one glass in front of me, I suddenly hear a voice I do not want to hear.

"Babe, I was looking for you"

As I look up I stare into the face of the women that I hate. I really do not have the patience to speak to her calmly or nicely at all.

"What is it that you want?"

"Come on, babe. You know what I want"

I watch as she takes the seat where Mikayla was supposed to sit and I can not help as I get extremely mad.

"I did not invite you to sit down, did I?"

"But babe-"

I raise my voice a bit louder than I probably should and say"

"Don't babe me! How much more clear must I make it? I do not want you in my life anymore?"

Her eyes widen as she is probably in shock because she has never seen me so angry before. But if I am true to myself it is not because of her but because I had the best day and I hope that I would have seen that exquisite woman again and now…I am stuck with Clara.

"I am sorry but could you just leave me alone?"

"Babe, what is wrong? I have never seen you like this before? I want to help you feel better"

That was the last straw. I stand up and take the bottle of wine leaving my money on the table. She really doesn't understand when I say leave me alone. I make my way out of the cafe and I start to walk.

I know that the doctors said that I should not drink alcohol with my medicine. They said it's not good for me and my condition would just get worse. But after taking a few more gulps from the wine bottle nothing seems important anymore.

I feel as my thoughts become hazy. Also, I am positive that the blocks of cement on the floor are not straight anymore. They must have changed the street somehow. As I turn around, I see a car following me.

"Hey! Whazz ye doin?!"

I point my finger at the car to make sure that they know I am very serious. Then the driver dares to get out of the car and walk towards me.

"Sir, I think you had enough"

The man reaches for my wine bottle and I make sure I show him that he will not get my bottle by throwing it in the air. I am known to have excellent hand-eye coordination and I will have no problem catching my wine bottle again.

I take two big steps backward and stretch out my arm to catch my wine bottle. Suddenly, I hear something like glass breaking on the ground far away from me. I turn to look at where I heard the sound from and I wonder who would break glass on the ground.

Then I take a sip from my wine bottle again but then I noticed that I do not have my wine bottle in my hand. I look around me on the ground and I don't see it anywhere. Then I look at the man still standing in front of me. He must have taken it.

"What did you do with my wine? Wherezz my...hic...wine?!"

I am ready to fight for what is mine and as I walk forward to punch him through the face he grabs me and starts taking me to his car. I am sure that I am being kidnapped.

"Letz me go!"

I start to kick him, as I have been an excellent student in karate. I have achieved my black belt and no one can kidnap me. I hit him as hard as I can and then I feel as he put me in the backseat of the car.

It is not long after he closed the door that I suddenly feel very tired and then everything went black.

MIKAYLA

I sit in the kitchen and eat my breakfast in complete silence. It is not just that I am feeling bad about what happened to me but now I'm feeling bad about missing my appointment with Luke.

My dad is sitting next to me and I haven't seen my brother yet. I know that my dad would like to know exactly what happened but he knows me well enough to just wait until I tell him. For now, he is my silent bodyguard just being with me the entire time.

I have the best dad in the world. I have been mistreated a few times in my life and he knows just to wait until I am ready to talk.
