“Now, I have to do it!” Anna
commanded herself. “It’s now or never.” Slowly she pulled her body out of her
car. “Step by step! Just keep walking.”
At long last
she decided to confront Brian. Anna knew she was miserable without him and
after Sara got on her case earlier that week, she finally got the courage to
follow her heart. She had wanted to the entire time, but her pride had once
again interfered with everything.
As her heart
pounded against her rib cage Anna rang the doorbell. It seemed as if thunder
crashed against the walls. Minutes ticked by as Anna waited for any sign of her
love.
No such luck.
“You aren’t
leaving now! You are going to wait...”Anna searched for a place to try and
relax. “Right there on that swing.” He feet almost refused to walk, causing her
to stumble clumsily to the wooden swing.
Anna let her
head fall heavily into her hands. Tears of anxiousness and fear slowly trickled
down her cheeks. This wasn’t going to be an easy wait.
“Aw come on!
Brian yelled at the traffic around him. “I want to go home! Go, the light is
green!”
Rain started
to drizzle and soon poured blindly into Brian’s path. Now his course home would
take ever longer. This just wasn’t his day.
