Afflicted
“I called after her as she was running toward her car. She looked like she didn’t want to stop, but I managed to grab her by the arm and turn her, so she was looking at me. “Just hear me out then you can leave if you want. I won’t stop you. We can even go for a drive if you want, but please just listen to what I have to say.” I pleaded.
She didn’t say anything, but started walking down the street away from the house.
“They’re just worried about you, you know. I know you don’t really know... me, but I care about your brother and I know how important you are to him. For the past eight years I was with the same guy, Cole. Four years ago he left to go into the military, he came back after his platoon was attacked by insurgents and hasn’t been the same since. He’s addicted to pain pills and getting drunk. He takes off for days at a time, which left me worried to the point that I couldn’t take it anymore. I tried so hard to save him from himself that I lost who I was in the process.”MoreLess
