The Black FearChapter 6
Mckenna Pov: Secret
“!”
I yelled, throwing a bit of ground and leafs above it.
"What's going on? Are you okay? "
Lay asked me, holding me by the wrist.
"Yes, all right. An insect bited me "
I replied, quietly.
"Which insect? Have you seen him? Let me see.”
He said bringing my hand to him, to check the status of the "wound".
Not allowed it to him, I retract it, closing it in a tight fist.
"It's nothing"
I said sourly.
"Okay, whatever."
He said moving in my side of search.
At that moment, I realized that he would have discovered everything, if I had not intervened.
I would never have allowed him to ruin the day
I knew how important it was to find her, but I would have preferred that he don't ever discovered.
"NO! There's nothing there. I've seen it before "
I said to him, raising my voice nervously.
"But how did you do it? Up there?
I didn't see you."
He replied, looking at me suspiciously.
I was trapped.
What could I say?
"I did it. However, it’s absurd that she’s still here, if she ran away.
I’m sure she’s not here. "
"Why? Do you know where she went? "
he asked sternly
"Er ..
I only said that she's not here "
I replied nervously scratching the back of my head.
I was screwed.
In fact, as I expected, I saw him get closer and closer to me, with steps slow but energetic, coming to me slamming my back against the tree, that was standing right behind me.
He looked at me carefully from head to toe and then violently slammed his palm close to my head, accidentally pulling a strand of my brown-red hair.
"Do you think I believe you ?
I note well that you're hiding something
Your sweatshirt is disintegrating now, because of the nails that are repeatedly stabbing "
He said, giving me an evil grin
"I don’t feel at ease"
I said, withdrawing her fingers
"WHERE IS SHE?"
She screamed, destroying the serenity of nature
"I DO NOT KNOW!
STOP TORMENTING ME!
I TOLD YOU THAT I DON'T KNOW! "
"She is everything to me.
You better tell me. "
"Everything for you?
But if you know her for only two days?
How can you say that you love her? "
I asked, pushing him, frustrated
In a few seconds, I saw him a few feet away, his back to me.
"Did not you know?"
"You knew her already?"
I asked, lowering my eyes, avoiding to show my emotions
"We went to the same class in high school.
At first, I gave not attention at her, but then we became great friends.
Unfortunately, this beautiful friendship broke off when she moved to another country.
But I never forgot her, despite the distance.
We called each other every day by phone,
Then, every month,
once a year
and then nothing.
She was busy with school, maybe she forgot about me
But I didn't
I never stopped loving her ... "
He told drawing himself perfectly in the memory
"... Then, when she came back, you arrived too.
Her best friend who ruined our relationship again
And now here I am, looking for her for the thousandth time, hoping that I could not lose her anymore. "
Concluded staring for a few seconds
"She did not tell them anything of the sort.
I did not think you knew. "
I added, immediately after he finished.
"Now you know" - he said, leaving a short pause,
Then he took a deep breath and said - "We continue to look to the North".
After saying those words, I set out for the adventure.
"For now I will not put pression, but if you're lying to me, the next time I move the hand directly into your face. OK?
He spoke, still holding me by the wrist.
"Alright"
I concluded, leaving that place with Lay.
