When We Were Young
See? I told you so. Slashed me right where it hurts. I could never say no whenever issues about her safety and well-being crops up.
“Fine.” I relent grudgingly.
Just as quickly as they came, their groveling expressions gave way to triumphant grins. I felt like the world’s biggest sucker right then, but I guess seeing Tina so happy took off a little of my annoyance away.
“Want me to help you find a nice hiding place?” I heard Mark ask Tina just after I had turned my back on them to begin my count.
My ears burned.
“Yes please..” Tina giggled. The way she usually does when my cousin does or says something silly, but she finds it adorable nonetheless.
My lips twitched.
“Come with me..” Mark invited, before I heard the unmistakable sound of them running away together.
Against my better judgment, I turned around and watched their retreating forms. They were holding hands.
My eyes stung.
I didn’t want to play this game anymore.
“HEY!” I shouted after them. They stopped and looked back at me. The distance between us seemed so large and significant in my memories. “I’m going home..” I tell them, breathing hard through my nostrils.
“Why?” They jogged back towards me. Still hand-in-hand.
“This is stupid. I don’t feel like playing hide-and-seek anymore.” I dished out a flimsy excuse, my brown eyes focusing on the see-saw nearby instead of the glaring image of their entwined hands.
“Are you chickening out again Bette?” Tina sighs, rolling her eyes.
Again?
“Since when have I ever chickened out?” I raise my voice sharply. Even I was surprised at how cold and angry I sounded. Jealousy, along with other intense emotions, really clouded one’s judgment.
“Uh.. maybe she’s not feeling well..” Ever the peace maker, Mark interjects. In his defense, he almost always sided with me when Tina was giving me a hard time. “We don’t have to play hide-and-seek. We’ll just play some other game, ‘kay?” He proposes diplomatically, looking between me and an annoyed Tina.
The blonde gave one long look at my scowling face before letting out an indignant snort. “Forget it Marky, Bette’s in one of her spoil-sporty moods again. She won’t be fun to play with today.”
