Comfort
Chapter 8: Waiting for the happy end
There lay a deep silence over the room after the green rabbit had spoken those words.
In Yin`s head the thoughts we`re racing, as she tried to understand why her arch-enemy suddenly confessed such deep feelings for her. It didn`t feel like another one of his dirty tricks which let the pink bunny`s heart break into pieces. It felt... real. "What do you mean...?" her voice broke the silence.
At this, Yuck was surprised. He expected her to either get all furious and yell at him like he was tricking her again or to be quite and leave. But how could he explain this strong feeling that had grabbed his hart and crushed his soul? How? Yuck didn`t know.... "I mean that I love you...." He repeated "More than anything else... and I`m serious, please.... just try to believe me...."
Yin didn`t even have to try, she already believed him. She saw it in his eyes, the regret for all those horrible mistakes he had made, how sorry he was and that special sparkle that made her realize that she could possibly forgive him... for everything.... "Yuck... see, I-I .... I do believe you but..."
"...you can`t forgive me, right? It`s understandable after all I did to you... but now I`ll go to prison, no matter what you do... I just hoped you`d at least give me forgiveness.... but I understand that you can`t..." Yuck looked to the ground, sadly, depressed and mostly heartbroken.
Yin could swear that she saw a tear in his eye. She felt bad for making yuck feel so miserable... but he deserved it, didn`t he? He had done too many bad things, hadn`t he? And yet, there was something telling her to forgive him, to let this wish of his come true. "you`re not right at that...."
Yuck looked up, with a confused gaze.
"I know you did many bad things and especially the latest thing you did..." She wiped a tear away. " I do forgive you... but not for killing my brother... I just can`t let it go like this... I hope you understand that I... don`t want to have anything to do with you in the future..." Yin herself froze at those words. Never? Did she mean never talk to Yuck again? Something felt wrong, her mind said yes, but her heart screamed no and it felt like both things were trying to rip her apart.
"... I understand... thank you..." Yuck sighed and some tears rolled down his cheeks.
Yin couldn`t stand any more of this and went out of the room, without any goodbyes, without any words... and without what her heart seemed to need... without Yuck....
Yo and Yane were watching their sad daughter... she looked broken, her gaze was dead... the old panda started talking. "Yin... are you alright? You seem.... sad..."
Yin looked up at her father and stared a short time at him, before answering. "Yes, Dad." Then Yin looked back to her feet.
Inside the girl there was a fight. A fight between her heart and her mind. They were fighting over Yin`s next action, either go home with her parents or go back to Yuck and try to never let him go again. But sadly...
...her mind won....
The pink girl turned towards Yane. "Mom, can we go home... please?"
Yane nodded, not bringing out any words at the look of her daughter. She and also Yo seemed to be very concerned. They knew that this whole story had gotton to Yin the most, but it looked like Yuck had made it worse... Had he been mean to her? Insulted her or her brother and laughed about her? Before Yin came all sad out of the room...? No... it was different... it looked like Yin wasn`t even there, absent, somewhere in deep thoughts, which she kept to herself.
Yin, Yane and Yo went back to the dojo.
After some days, Yin had tried to get at least half-way over her brothers death, but she jsut couldn`t. She thought the whole time long about Yang and... about Yuck...
"Yin, there`s mail for you." Her father said, four days after the whole story...
Yin took the letter her father was holding and opened it.
Dearest Yin,
I know you won`t want to read it, but I just can`t fight it back anymore. I, myself, tried to get over the heartbreaking story. I know it needs time to heal for all of us, but I had hoped I would forget soon about you.... Yin, I really love you with all my heart and even though you don`t reply my feelings for you I just can`t stop saiyng it to you. I am thinking aobut every minute, every second. One day, hopefully, I will be over you, even though the sweet dreams of you make my heart beat hundred times faster and make my feeling of loneliness even bigger. I can`t write more, which makes me really sad, but Yin, love of my life, I want to talk with you, just one single time... there might be a way, this all can have a happy end.
Love, Yuck
