We Let Her Go

ADAM.

I was still steaming in anger and frustration when I ambled into the common room where I and my brothers stayed to talk, think and brainstorm; at crossroads when I saw them lounging on the chairs there, each left to their own thoughts.

I had bargained on here being empty so that I could stay by myself and think. With them here, that of course is canceled out. I wonder though, if it will do me good, for them to talk about anything at all, like their recent conquests or even about our father, anything to take my mind away from Dora.

Dora.

The girl was driving me crazy. One moment I am my aloof self, deciding to be away from her, the next moment, I am drawn to her in such a way that I can't help myself, that I can't stop myself, and I end up being an embarrassment to myself mostly.
