Brooklyn suspirou com as falas do homem que agora sentava no meio do quarto a olhando, esperando que ela lhe desse motivos ou explicações. - I didn’t talk to anyone, Ryan. Not even my mom. - falou fingindo indiferença continuando a pintar. Escutou ele e parou mexendo a cabeça - I know, I know. “Someday”, not today, or this week, or even this year. - falou agora apoiando o pincel no chão e olhando para ele. - It’s not about of being afraid - passou a mão na cabeça, por alguns segundos deixando o silêncio se instalar - I disappeared. I just stop everything. - suspirou olhando para ele - My phone have million messages from months ago, and I know they worry but I hurt them. - abaixou a cabeça - I’ve only asked you to tell Noah when I had runway twice. Troye only knows because you were drunk and I was disturbing you to know about Petri, and even though, it’s been only a month that he knows. - suspirou mexendo a cabeça - I made you lie to your best friends, and trust me Mavee, you are not the best liar. I wanted to know about them, and you had to lie to Mike saying I was in a stupid trip, and you only knew because of Max. I made you do that, I’m responsible for that. - as lágrimas começavam a cair, era algo que estava cotidianamente acontecendo agora em sua vida. - I cheated on Petri, with your ex. I hurt him, and didn’t give any explantion, only that was who I am. - passou a mão no rosto limpando as lágrimas com raiva - Fuck, what shitty person I am. - reclamou de se própria mexendo a cabeça - I hurt you, Mavee, many times, and I used you, and you are still here. Why? I don’t know. But I don’t have the face to do the same thing with them. - suspirou olhando diretamente nos azuis dos olhos dele - That’s the problem. -
- Brooklyn, you had a reason. - falou olhando para ela - But now you don’t have, you must talk to them. - insistiu, mas mexeu a cabeça se levantando quando viu as primeiras lágrimas escorrerem no rosto dela - Wait, B., breathe, just breathe... - se aproximou dela tocando em seus braços e utilizando seu polegar para limpar seu rosto - We hurt other people. Everyone. It’s a bad thing but a human thing. - seu dedo desceu até o queixo dela e voltou para seus braços tentando conforta-la. - And I’m a grown man, you did made me do anything, I choose to do that things. So that’s my problem. - falou olhando diretamente para ela com um sorriso do canto dos lábios.- And you didn’t hurt me, I was the one that stood on your toes , annoying and worried about you. And that wasn’t my job. - falava de maneira mais leve para tirar qualquer peso que ela sentia por algo relacionado a ele - The reason I’m here it’s the same they will be here and forgive you when you explain everyhting. I love you as they do. - tinha um sorriso sincero nos lábios com os olhos mergulhados nos dela. Era irônico como o sentimento que tinha por Brooklyn sempre era intenso mas com o tempo já tinha mudado tantas vezes, que durante os anos a torna-la uma parte de uma vida.
