I hesitate for a second to turn to her and order her to shut up. I want to yell at her to wake up, to snap out of her madness and finally face the reality that this will never happen again. But I would only make her worse so I don’t contradict her. I let her believe in something that no longer exists.
I don’t wait for the rest of her sentence before leave the living room. I climb the stairs two by two while the anger invades me a little more.
As I reach the corridor that leads to my room, I stop in front of a door that is supposed to remain closed but is open tonight. Worry fills me for a second but disappears immediately when I discover Abraham in the room. It’s only him.
Nothing has moved inside. For a year, it’s always the same. The same beeping of the medical devices.
My gaze wanders to the frail figure of my little sister, Debbie, under the white blanket. Motionless. A porcelain doll.
Broken.
Abraham checks one last time that everything is in order before leaving the room. This is the same ritual he does several times a day.
Debbie’s eyelids remain closed. I step into the room, my hand gripping the door handle. I stare at the screen showing her vitals. The various connections to her are keeping her alive, but her mind must be dead already after all this time. I inch closer. It’s been days since I’ve been in this damn room. I hate seeing her like this and not being able to do anything to get her out, to make her wake up.
But I hate myself even more for knowing that it’s partly my fault she’s in this damn condition.
A creak, then footsteps in the hallway, interrupt my thoughts. I turn abruptly to the bedroom door and leave the room without waiting a second. My eyes search the corridor but there is nobody there.
Silent, I walk towards the double door of my room. I am both reassured and furious when I discover the intruder.
“What the hell are you doing here?” I growl as I close the door behind me. “I ordered you not to come.”
Sarah stares at me with a teasing little smile on her lips.
“I’ve always had trouble with the rules.”
I let her come to me, watching her walk sensually. She thinks she has some power over me. Bullshit. When she puts her right hand on my chest, I grab her wrist.
My behavior excites her, I can see it. It’s not the goal. Yet I notice her pupils dilate a little as she nibbles her lower lip. But she has disobeyed me.
“My rules are not meant to be broken,” I say firmly, pushing her away from me. “Get out of my way.”
She opens her mouth but remains silent, as if she doesn’t know how to take my sudden refusal. I turn my back on her and walk into the bathroom, taking off my shirt. I need a fucking shower after tonight.
The tall brunette chases after me disobeying yet again.
“I know I had no right…I’m sorry.”
I ignore her and undress under her burning eyes. Sarah blows as if to give herself courage and then also starts to undress. What the…?
Once naked in front of me, she flinches slightly when she sees that I don’t have a hard-on for her. I don’t know why but my persistent erection has finally given up.
“Did I do something wrong?” she asks in a small voice. “Is everything okay?”
Is everything okay? No, damn it, nothing is okay!
“Get your stuff and get out,” I repeat, turning on the shower faucet. I hate it when people don’t obey a damn order. No one is going into my house!
She doesn’t let go though, not understanding that I have no desire to fuck tonight. “Don’t you want me? Just one more time,” she asks me with a devilish smile starting her antics back up. What’s wrong with her? We had fun together a few times, nothing more. At what point did she think she could walk in here and offer me her ass? With a serious look on my face, I tell her, “I’ve had you before. Why would I want you again?”
I point to the door with my chin. After a second, she nods, looking embarrassed. I barely have time to make out the furious expression on her face before she throws on her clothes and leaves.
I close my eyes and let the water fall on my shoulders, my forehead against the stone.
What a fucking night.
