"Don't be like that, Helena." Ed crooned. Pained that I was feeling that way.
I know it was unreasonable but I just can't help it. I wanted to be the one helping my family. Why do I always end up needing their help? Why do I always end up being a burden to those that I love?
I just chose not to say anything anymore. A few moments had passed and Ed did not say anything to me anymore. I think he just felt that nothing would make the guilt go away. So he just stayed still let me be. Alone with my thoughts.
When I looked up, he asked, "Ready?" I just nodded in response.
We went down. Back to our own respective jobs. Jeff kept looking my way.
"Where have you been, red?" I jumped at the sudden interrogation. "Woa! Jumpy aren't we?" Luke said with a sneer.
I can see behind his easy smile that he was not an easy man to deal with. I wish he never laid eyes on me. Maybe these misfortunes would not happen.
