Troubled Luna (Part 3: Deja vu )

 


Andre took a bet against Matthew, Luna and Joana. The lowest score has to treat everyone with ice cream.

He lost.

By 20 points.

Not only he has to spent on the three idiots, he also have to face the embarrassment of having the lowest score. As the three got their ice cream, they went in front of Andre and started licking the ice cream while looking down on him.

“Why am I friends with you guys?”

After finishing the ice cream, they all opted to go on separate ways. Walking outside the store, Matthew noticed Luna is not moving an inch from her seat so he grabbed the other two.

Joana brushed Luna’s arm and asked her if something is wrong

They all felt the same sensation. The discomfort of the heavy atmosphere, the storm brewing inside them that they know is coming but they never really learned how to prepare for it. Looking through the corner of their eyes, they know something familiar is up. Something they know will come but they we’re never really ready.

“She cheated on me again”

No one was speaking. It was the sense of familiarity that everyone wished they we’re not familiar with in the first place. They know the drill, procedures and techniques but in a sense to stop the disaster they know how to fix, would be nice. It is a disease that is curable but it would be nice if the recipient would not contract it in the first place.
