continues-parts from my sample story rough draft writing. The phone rang. At the time she was at a friends house drinking a cup of tea and trying very hard to forget what had happened a few days prior. She saw the number and didnt want to pick it up. A pity feeling wrapped her for hearing the ring going non-stop. Her friend looked at her and saw that behind that stubbornness of refusing to pick up the phone was a storm brewing. After many rings her friend jumped and said. -Just pick up the phone and tell them not to bother you anymore. Finally she opened the phone and answered. -Yes, who is this? -Its me.-he replied She stepped for a moment! On the other side of the phone was the person that she so much wanted to hear the voice so many times and talk non-stop, but not that day, not like this and for this matter. -Why did you call, who put you to call me? -No one, I wanted to talk to you myself. -What is your problem with my mother?-he said with an arrogance voice. -I have a problem with your mother?! She started trembling and her eyes filled with tears that someone she adored was talking this way to her and a little sigh went through the phone. He on the other side let a sarcastic laugh! His laugh irritated her more, but soon got it together and started talking very firmly and very disappointed at his attitude! -You are laughing? You are laughing at this situation? What is so funny about this, please, can you tell me? His voice became very thin and took a very low pitch. Im sorry, I didnt mean too.-he replied -First of all, I dont have any problem with your mother. Your mother and you have a problem with me and Im not sure why anymore! I already send you a very endearing Farewell card, as endearing as they can be and told all of you specifically not to contact me anymore. -Second of all, Im not sure why you are calling and talking to me in a rude manner! I do not remember for as long as we know each-other for me to have given you or your family the attitude you are giving me without any right! You do not have the right to talk like this to anyone at all, let alone me, maybe to the one you have at home. So, maybe you should learn how to better communicate first. -Im sorry, lets talk now-he replied -You want to talk now?!-she answered astonished at his answer! -This is the problem, talking, communication. -You and me had a problem with each-other, why didnt you talk to me? -I didnt want to talk to you, about that.-he said -Ok, fair enough. If you did not feel comfortable to talk to me then, why and what would you want to talk to me now? What do you want to say that you could not say? I waited for you to talk to me, respecting you, no matter how much I felt. I wouldnt mind at all coming and talking to you first, cause then we would know if it really was meant to be or not. I may not have more experience than this younger girl you have at home now, but I know how to separate and solve things that are presented to me There was a silence on the other side of the phone. Even the noise of his breath wasnt coming through the phone. It was as he even stopped breathing for a moment. Please, tell me, what do you want to talk now that everything is over?-she continued, by raising her pitch. -What you or I will say to each-other now that your have the other one at your home? He could not answer clearly, but just started talking in a scrabbled manner as to escape what he had done. Im sorry I didnt talk to you, but you can call me any time!-that was his only escape from answering truthfully what he had done. Now her pity for him was growing more than the pity she felt for his mother when she was begging her not to leave(again) and a calmness came through her as she could see that he and them(his family)were not sorry at all what they had done, even though they were trying very hard to not let her go, so their mess wouldnt come out. She started talking again very calm, so he could understand the impact and the importance of the situation -Did you make your important decision in life? -Yes-he replied -Good! I like it or not, I congratulated you, as hard as it was and walked away very politely, cause thats how Im brought up, not to make scenes. Now, I have the right to make decisions too. You may not like it, but is my decision and theres nothing you can say or do about it, as you decided not to be part of my decisions. -Yes, but we dont want to lose your friendship!-he continued with his demanding voice. -Friendship? You call this friendship? -Where were you for so many years my so called friend? You had enough time and plenty of my friendship, which you and your family used and now you still continue to say, You want my friendship, you only want! No relationship is only Want. Friendship like any other relationship is give and take and has to be mutual, otherwise it wont work and here are the fruits when friendship is given form one side and is taken from the other. -Ok, leave me, but dont leave my mother-he almost cried. -Leave you? Im not sure what should I leave anymore from you, cause you are already gone, you are with someone else and if you were the last man on earth now, I would not look at you again. -Dont worry about your mother. She has her own problems, which I had talked to her many times to be careful and most of all not to do these things she does to everyone else with me, but she didnt listen carefully. She will find someone elses child to use, she cant help it, but I see you have the same problem too! What are you going to do about this?-she continued. -Nothing-he replied in the more clueless manner. -What can I do, theres nothing I can do either, cause there is so much you can give someone or in your case the whole family. I guess we all learn in a hard way, I sure did. You and your family used and hurt me really bad and I will never forgive you for this. Anything else?-she asked -No-he answered very faint. -Good, now you go! You see, dont waste my time anymore. She closed the phone and never looked back on her decision as it was the only acceptable decision for the situation. She was not raised to believe in Harems kind of love, where all women fight for the affection of one man for opportunity sake and to get the crown! She was raised to be Independent and if she ever fell in love to love someone who shared her soul, love and friendship from here to eternity.
