This time, Cream is the one driving, one hand on the steering wheel and the other in Ber's hand who is staring outside the window, a slight irritated expression on his face.
I am seated next to Mel who's playing with my fingers and Coco who keeps bringing up random songs that had to do with breakup, remixing some from Taylor, or Adele.
"Nice to meet you, let me go! I want to go sniff other guys butts!"
Ber let out a groan as he rubbed his temple "Coco"
"I am so gay, and what the fuck? You can fuck me if you want!"
"He always does this everytime" Mel says to me as I face him "When we go see Mistress at where she works, he acts crazy so Ber can go out at him and gets him mad that the nurses thee would think he's crazy and possibly lock him up there with the other crazies but let him be around her"
My eyes widen and when he notices it, he laughs and says "Coco wouldn't survive a day there alone, and a week without sex too"
"I'd hit you like a wreccckkkiiiinnng balllllll!"
Ber suddenly turns to the backseat and snaps "If you wanna be annoying, get the fucking words right you piece of shit! It's I came in, the fuck you even spitting there?!"
Coco rolls his eyes "Can you save your anger till when we're actually there? And I don't wanna come in like a wrecking ball, it'd hurt, I'd rather hit you with it"
"And how would you get a wrecking ball?" Ber says "Everyone knows you're not even safe with a needle"
"You're mean as hell, you know that don't you?" Coco says with a fake sad pout "If I wasn't that safe, why would you trust me with your dick in my mouth?"
"Because you're a bloody cocksucker"
"True"
"We're here"
I look outside the window as I see the guards outside the gate and a nursing home looking place in front of us as Cream goes to the garage and parks.
As he does so, Coco let's out a scream "Fucking Ber! You made me lose track of what I was singing! Now I've forgotten the noise I was planning on making!"
"You're already doing that you piece of shit! And if you don't shut up and stop cursing right now, I would be spank the horny spirit inside you out!"
Immediately Ber said that, Coco got quiet.
Mel chuckles quietly to me as he says "Works everytime"
When we come out, Cream comes out last, with Ber walking and standing next to him, I notice with a bunch of flowers in his hand.
For Mistress?
I frown.
Why didn't they tell us to get for her too?
As I hold unto Mel, I notice Cream is holding Ber's hand, but Coco just stands next to us, not even moving to annoy or disturb them....
Weird.
They walk in first, as we follow behind, not even bothering to talk to the receptionist as they walk through different sectors, a soothing scent fills the place as we go deeper, hearing people humming, possibly meditating as we keep walking until we reach a door.
Cream is the one standing there, looking at the knob for a while, his blank face not betraying anything until he turns it and enters, Ber next, before us three.
As we do so, I notice the table with a vase on it at the window, the flowers inside wilted and an old woman laying on the hospital bed in a hospital gown and a weird look on her face "St.... Strawberry?"
She's looking at Ber as the male gives her a smile, so effortlessly that I stare in shock as he sits on the chair next to her bed and says "Hello grandma"
Cream on the other hand walks to t vase, removing the flowers inside it and replacing it with the ones he bought as the old woman asks "Who's that?"
Ber seems to say as gently as possible "Your grandson"
Her face purses in confusion but she ends up shaking her head "No, Crassius died with his sister, Erythrina in a car accident when he was five"
What?
But Crassius was Cream....
Cream is still at the window, arranging the flowers as delicately as possible as the woman suddenly shakes her head again and smiles "But boy was he such a sweetheart and gentleman! Never let the little girl cry you know. Was always watching out for anyone and felt for everyone and everything! He would have loved you"
Ber still had the smile on his face as he says "I bet he would"
The old woman's eyes move to us and she brightens up "Is that a girl with Carl and Channing? My goodness, I thought you said you all were gay"
Ber turns to me, a small smile on his face "I guess we work with both sides"
She chuckles "Well you boys should come closer and give momma a kiss, or am I too wrinkly now?"
Channing scoffs as he walks to her and holds her hand, raising it up to his lips and kissing it "Originality never fades or gets wrinkly"
Mel blushes and comes forward "I was never good with flattery so here" He kisses her on the cheek "Hello"
My eyes move to Cream who is still at the window, unmoving, still moving the flowers, his hand being so gentle and perfectly still...
Like if he turned back, it would kill him.
"Why, you look like Erythrina"
I turn to the woman as she squints and says "Are you my granddaughter?"
I stare, confused but I see Ber nod and I nod too as the woman frowns "Erythrina, you were always so stubborn. Why did you leave like that? You know they said you were in the car but I never believe them the littlest. You never liked cars. Do you miss Crassius too? I do. Such a loving boy with his lively eyes and bright....."
Then her eyes begin to cloud with tears as she raises her hand to her face "Oh my poor Crassius. How much I miss him"
As Mel rests on her shoulder, Coco on her laps and Ber holding her.....
My eyes are on Cream who is now frozen, no longer moving till he suddenly walks out of the room.
As he does so, Ber stands up "We... We have to be leaving now"
The woman's tearstained face looks at him in pain "But... But I'd be alone"
"Never" Coco says as he kisses her forehead "We would always come see you"
"You should rest" Mel says as he laid the woman back on her bed.
As she lays down, her eyes move to the window and brighten up again "Oh, I have another set of flowers. Isn't this marvelous?"
Did she.... Did she not see Cream there?
Ber smiles, kissing her forehead "Yes, it is. Maybe a miracle. Rest"
She obeys, closing her eyes as Ber walks out of the room.
As Mel and Coco stay, staring at her, I walk out and find Cream on the wall, Ber on him....
Holding him....
When Cream looks up, his blank face has tears.... But he doesn't even seem to be aware as he comes out of Ber's grasp and walks to me.
"You do look like her" He says "Erythrina. Shocking she could tell her and not I"
His hand finds my face, tenderly as he says "She would always touch my hair and play with it when I was scared. Would you?"
I stare at him, my hand moving to his head as he bends down and closes his eyes at the contact.
I rub him slowly, my hands feeling it's softness as I whisper "You'd be okay. I'm here"
As I say that, his eyes widen as he says "Ery.... Erythrina"
More tears fall from his eyes as he suddenly grabs me and pulls me into him so tight that I can barely breathe.
"I'm so sorry... I'm sorry"
But I don't tell him to let go as I let him hold me for a while.
The twins now standing at Ber's sides, staring at us, a certain sadness in their eyes....
Perhaps the same certain sadness I was feeling too.
