Confession 6

Switching Shadows

I am ashamed of myself now! Why in the hell did it take this long for me to be ashamed I walked into the bar, looking for a place to sit and decided to sit at the end of the bar. I asked the bartender for some Hennessey with ice. I needed a drink, I know I promised my wife I would quit, but tonight I need it. How in the hell did I come this?! Three years later and now I am upset about my decision. I sip on my hinny, I am a wreck now, and I can’t even look in her face the same anymore. Tonight I will let this shame out. I am just waiting. Sudden I see him. I know it was a risk but its risk I had to take. He looks at me as he has seat. I can’t even look him in the face. I just mumble “You want a drink?” He shrugs his shoulders and nods as I order him the drink of his choice. He sighs as he takes a hit of his drink saying “You asked me out here, no what in the hell do you want?” I nod looking around the bar for an empty table. I find one by the pool tables, then motions for him to follow me. We sit at the table. I sigh then begin.

“When I was younger I fell in love with a beautiful young girl name Evelyn Cider. She was one of the most beautiful girls in my high school. She was supposed to marry this asshole at our school name Nickolas Sanderson. He was the quarter back for our school. I was on the yearbook committee; I was a nerd, a no body. Well during our senior year that asshole went and got himself killed in drag race with some college kid. Evelyn couldn’t get over it, no one understood, but she would go to his grave every year without fail. I began to follow her there, I became her companion. I would help her grieve through it and eventually she fell in love with my compassion. I married her after I finished college. We tried for three years after that to have children, nothing.

We almost gave up hope….”He just rolled his eyes saying “What the fuck does any of this have to do with what you have done?!” I sighed, pacing myself saying “Everything just let me finish.” He sat back in his chair and pulled out a cigarette. As he lit the cigarette he motioned with his light for me to continue. I sighed closing my eyes then continued “Evelyn became very depressed. She cried most of the day. We almost considered adoption, because we wanted a child so badly. We even went to a few adoption agencies to find a newborn baby. In the end Evelyn couldn’t go through with it. She wanted her own child. There was nothing in this world I wouldn’t do for Evelyn.
