I'd Rather be Dead Instead

*FIRST POINT OF VIEW*

*I got it, but maybe, I don't know, I'm having a problem managing why and how, and-*

"Hey, hello, are you lost?", a guy asked her and she shook her head, "but what are you doing at this hour alone? Are you waiting for someone?", and she shook her head harder and backed away a step farther, "oh, you must be shy, no need, I don't think I introduced myself properly, I'm Brendon, and you are?"

And she just smiled and shook her head sadly.

"What?"

"Nothing", she mouthed, "I'm mute!"

And with that, he froze and was in shock and, "I extremely apologize!-"

"Marinara!", she mouthed again...

"Sweet!", he commented.

"What's sweet?", a lady called behind them.

"Oh, hey Rosalia I just met this lady here, her name is epic, you'll never guess it!", Brendon exclaimed.

"Angel?", Rosalia guessed

"Not even close, Marinara, how dope?"

"Estoy Rosalia! El novia, and by the way, nice meeting you Angel!"

"You can join our company, c'mon!", Brendon enthusiastically stated!

I joined them, they seemed weirdly slouched at first, like they want to suck the negativity out of you to have it for their own! Brendon seemed fun, but she, Rosalia, seemed like the kind of jealous type of girlfriend! 

I joined them into a good looking cafe and I saw food and drinks and what I could never lay eyes on when I was with Mr. Blanco, so-

"What would you like to order?", the waitress asked.

Oh, shoot, I never came to a cafe before, how do I not embarrass myself? So I just pointed to the first thing on the menu on the "cold drinks" category.

"An ice latte mocha with caramel? Coming!"

"I don't know what's sweeter, your name, or your order!", Brendon joked and I rolled my eyes, "seriously, very wise, I would like the same please!", he ordered, and I felt flattered!

Awkward silence crept it's the way between us...

"Why haven't you uttered a letter?", Rosalia asks

"She's...uh...", Brendon startled.

And I hold out my palm with the word written on it: MUTE  

"Oh, okay, but how, or why?", she continues.

And I open my phone and open the documents and show them what made their eyes bleed their pupils out.

A tear trickled down Rosalia's puffed, peachy 🍑 cheeks...

I tilted my head with a grin.

She came in for a hug. That was way too...too...too unfamiliar...strange...to me...I can't fall apart here.

Hold your shit together!
