āWhy are you here?ā I ask as I sniffle.
āHave you been crying?ā Kevin replies, setting the bowl down onto the coffee table.
Placing the backside of my hand under my nose, I lie. āItās just a cold.ā I reach for a box of tissues nearby.
āI donāt believe you.ā
I turn back to him, raise my arm, and point toward the door. āYou can leave,ā I demand.
āKat, please. Donāt shut me out. I thoughtā¦I thought we were in a good place with each other.ā
I shake my head. āDonāt act like you want to be close to me. You and Jo are only using me as some sort of humanity project.ā
āItās not like that at all. We want to help you heal,ā Kevin implores.
āI have Robitussin. Iāll be fine.ā
āNo, thatās not what I mean and you know it. We want to help you heal from whatās made you so bitter about life.ā
āWhy do you care?ā I asked, agitated by his efforts.
āBecause I do.ā
I sit on the sofa with a huff. āIām fine.ā
āKat, look at me. You are not fine. Just tell me why and Iāll listen.ā
āI donāt need a protector.ā
āThatās apparent from the ninja skills you performed the other night.ā
I roll my eyes. āI donāt need a babysitter either. I am a grown up.ā
Kevin sits beside me, a little closer than Iām comfortable with. āI donāt want to protect you. I donāt want to babysit you. I want to be your friend. Maybe, more than a friend.ā
My eyes go wide. I have no response.
āI care about you and I donāt care if you want me to or not. I do and itās out of my control. And I donāt care whether you believe that I care about you. Iām not trying to use you. Neither is Jo. Weāre not going to give up on youāā he points a finger to his chest, āIām not going to give up on you.ā
I take in his words but quickly reject them. āSometimes, giving up is not your choice to make,ā I say, sternly, trying desperately hard not to cry.
āWhose choice is it then?ā Kevin asks.
I look at him. āWhoever controls fate.ā
