“Don’t say that. Do not think that. They are not permanent. And you are definitely worth some scrapes and bruises.” He spoke.
“Am I?” Katherine glanced at him shyly.
They were pulling into her school parking lot. Justin pulled up to the unloading zone, turned to her, took her hand, and gazed in her eyes and spoke. “You are worth everything I ever owned and everyone I ever knew.” They stared at each other for a moment. She realized then that there were other students streaming around them. A few had stopped or paused while walking to see who the dark blue mustang belonged to and who was inside. Some had already recognized Katherine and had started gossiping.
Katherine began to pick up her bag and turned to get out. But she hesitated. “Can I kiss you one more time before I go?” She said, not looking at him but peering out the window.
“For your classmates?” He inquired, entertained by the conversation.
But she thought he was irritated. “No for me, to feel that feeling one more time.”
“What feeling?” He wanted her to gaze at him, but she didn’t.
“The secure and happy feeling. I,” she swiveled to him finally, hesitating to look down at her hands as she did so. “I want to feel it before I go. Who knows what Brenda has in store for me.” She blinked. She was beginning to feel scared.
“Of course. But do not be frightened. I am a text or a call away. If you need me to come early, just text and come here right here to this spot, I’ll be here.” Justin said, pointing to the sidewalk.
She her eyes darted out of the window, trying to memorize the spot, but he caressed her chin with his finger, and she permitted her face to be led back to him. “Anywhere here, darling, anywhere in unloading. I’ll be waiting for you.” They kissed then, moving in mutually together.
