Meanwhile........
After Kait and Zac went into Zac's room they sat on the floor. Tay was
sitting on the bed staring straight ahead. "Why did you hit Airi?" Zac
asked breaking the silence.
"I don't know."
"What do you mean you DON'T know?"
"I don't. I don't know what came over me. I was just mad and I did it.
She is mad. Im going to loose her." He closed his eyes.
"No you won't. You just have to apologize in the right way. I know
Airi."
"Well, what is the right way?"
"You are going to have to figure that out on your own."
"Why?"
"So it comes from you."
"But-I DON'T KNOW!! I don't know how to do it! I don't know what to get
her or do, or anything!!"
"Figure it out. I can't tell you. You have to do it on your own. It
won't be from the heart if I tell you."
"Well, flowers, or a hug, or candy? Just give me a HINT!!"
"No Tay. You messed up, you fix it."
"What about a ring?"
"I don't know Tay. You decide."
"I'll get that!!" He jumped up, and ran out of the room, pulling on his
shoes. Kait pet Zac's head and pulled him closer to her.
"Are you hungry?"
"Yeah." He layed on her chest.
"You want me to get some food?"
"Sure. Don't leave."
"Zac, I kinda have to if I'm going to get you food." She smiled.
"But I want you to stay!" He hugged her tight.
"Uh! You're hugging too tight. Let go a little." He let go a little
bit.
"Please stay."
"Then I can't get you food."
"But I'm hungry."
"Zac! You're too confusing! How 'bout I tuck you into your bed, and
then I'll get you something to eat, and then I'll come back and feed it
to you?"
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Okay. Help me up." She helped him stand, and he crawled into his bed.
Kait tucked the covers around him and kissed his forehead. "I wish you
were my mom."
"How could I kiss you with my tongue and be your mom? That would be
gross!"
"Hey, Incest is the best!!"
"Sicko." She touched his head and kissed his warm dry lips. "I'll be
right back." She quietly left the room, with Zac watching her. After
asking me if I wanted anything, she went to good 'ol McDonald's.
