Can't Your Eyes See? [4]

Emma threw her arms around Ryan’s neck, and hugged him. She whispered, sighing. “We will be fine. I guess, but I hate seeing my parents divorce.” Ryan pulled her toward him, letting her sit on his laps. “I know I bet it sucks, but we will be fine little by little.” He tried to smile but it was only sad grin, “ Are you going to be okay? I just don’t want you to get hurt like I used to be.”

Emma nodded, sitting on his laps, and Ryan wrapped her waists. “Yeah, I guess…I don’t know, but I am glad you are here with me.” Emma said, as she smiled weakly, “You are only the best friend who are always there for me. I love you, Ryan.” Ryan leaned closer her, kissed her cheeks softly, and replied her back, “I love you too, Emma.” His heart gradually cracked open, it wanted Emma to be more than just friend. He felt that he had to wait for while until she would feel for him as more than just friend, but he never knew when. It would take forever to tell her the whole truth, but he didn’t want to ruin everything after something horrible happened. He couldn’t take things anymore until he was ready to face his fear to split the truth out of his mouth. It wasn’t pretty easy for him for long time since. Now, Ryan had to protect Emma from getting the pains. Screaming pains.

Ryan hugged Emma long time until she finally cried in the tears into the flood. “No matter what will happens, nothing can separate us apart. We might feel that we will feel alone, but deep inside, we’re not,” said Ryan, as he wiped Emma’s tears away with his finger.
