The Most Wonderful Addiction

Imagine the peace symbol. The peace symbol has three pieces in it. One piece is emotion, that’s your body. Another piece has spirit in it, that’s your fuel. Another piece has intellect in it and that’s your steering wheel. You can never overdo the fuel that goes into the body, which is the emotions and the steering wheel to drive it.

Gary Busey

Read and Love!

We were six people wondering about everything and we never stopped making dreams and plans for the future.
Celina was also there and, initially, she was acting weird, like a stranger, but not for too long. For once more, and while still being at the small café, she had managed to show her interest about me by rushing toward my side. I was ready to fall off my seat but, in no time, Celina had gotten up from her chair and had already grabbed my arm.
I was not naïve, careless or stupid but, sometimes, I served as a magnet attracting the strangest facts and things without being able to explain the cause.
Later, Celina avoided looking at me and I hated seeing her acting like that. I had screwed up everything, I had caused her a lot of pain, and countless questions about our relationship, our future and, for a moment, her behavior made me think that I shouldn’t be there. I felt like I didn’t belong in the company of my best friends.
I knew I had destroyed our connection but I was twenty-two, crazy in love with Celina and panicked as well since I was ready to ask my princess to marry me.
I would never say that I was a great catch but I had finished my studies, I had my own small business with candies and I earned a lot of money. And above all, I could swear that every day, I would do my best to make my princess happy.
Celina carried on ignoring my presence until the moment I stood up when, out of the blue, she glanced at me and, after a while, I heard her sweet voice.
“Let’s take a walk,” Celina gazed at me and sounded sweet, but serious as well.
“Okay,” I said.
We left the small café while our best friends were still hooked by her reaction and the way she looked at me.

“Do you remember?” She asked.
When Celina pointed at the huge rocks in the sea, the memories of the terrible accident and the worst moments of my life came up.
I held her hand and I was sure she could feel my heartbeat. Although I felt wonderful touching her, like the times I used to pick her up from her home to go out and have fun, I couldn’t stop feeling responsible for the worst experience she had ever lived…
