My Girl

He used to ask me all the time if I was okay,

As though he never knew for sure

He would ask me when he was tired

Or frustrated

Or when he felt helpless

He would ask me

When he was afraid.

He asked me that same question,

Long after we stopped being lovers,

When we become something less

Yet somehow more

''Are you okay?''

He would whisper on the phone late at night,

When she was asleep

Or had gone to her mother's for the weekend

''Are you okay?''

He hasn't asked me in years,

But I know he still thinks it.

I know the question

Still reverberates in his mind like a broken record

And he will keep looking for answers

Long after there is nothing left to appease him

It was always the same question,

Over and over again.

Like the start of a procession

And it took me years to recognize the unsaid words

That marched silently behind

''Are you okay; because I love you''

''Are you okay; because I need you''

''Are you okay; because I don't know how to live without you''

''Oi, You Bastard''

Edward snarled noisily from close to the structure. Both Daisy and Anna got flustered at Edward's abrupt appearance. However, Marcel that appears to know the wellspring of voice just stopped in his means somewhat prepared for impending occasions happening with him. ''Edward...'', Daisy murmurs faintly. Edward alongside Drake surges towards Daisy in a defensive walk. Daisy being upset by Edward's abrupt defensive air felt butterflies in her stomach however got cautioned while checking Marcel out. Edward remained among Marcel and Daisy a demeanor of fierceness develops all over. ''What in the world would you say you are doing now? Aren't you tired or believe I should take care of you with my stunning punches on this crappy face of yours?'', Daisy pushes Edward back to stop him yet he stops her as he says, ''No Daisy, let me manage this knave. I had enough of him''. Edward was going to get Marcel whose head was hung low in responsibility when Daisy stepped before them. ''Stop please, he just came to apologize. Allow this make a difference to cover here presently'' requested Daisy. Edward just gave Daisy 'I have no faith in him' look. Daisy just argued at him. Which he sometimes appears to purchase as how on earth Edward can oppose Daisy's appeal. Daisy grinned delicately a him as he gestured his head. Then Daisy looks at Marcel.

''Go on, Marcel'', Daisy signals him. He immediately gazes toward his eyes were met by Edward's smoldering one that is by all accounts in shock as they see the ragged looking eyes of his. In any case, Marcel didn't respond as he probably was aware he merited this after all what he has done. He then took a gander at Daisy and says, ''Look Daisy, as I said prior, I am so upset for my demonstrations with you. The thing is I simply needed to lift my disagreeable self confidence that is dependably appears to smash before my loved ones''. Daisy was a piece shocked by unexpected close to home eruption from Marcel. Anna and Drake remained there at side paying attention to all giving each other addressing looks while Edward was quietly making a decision about him. ''My...'' Marcel delayed and stopped to keep himself intact as he really wanted to cry. Daisy being the empathic individual she is makes a stride ahead that intellectually cautions Edward for any future occasions that as he felt that may be conceivable that Marcel will go after her in the future. As kid got 'Trust issues' a result of him. Though, Daisy delicately says, ''It's alright Marcel, you don't need to impart it to us if you are not happy''. ''No' announces Marcel as he says. Taking everybody daydreaming. ''No, I need to tell you, I need to feel the aggravation you felt that da due to me I need to encounter cap as well. I need to feel the way things are felt to give out your most profound frailty access front of somebody.''

Daisy just remained there as she delicately grins at him, ''You previously did. What's more, it's OK''. Marcel stopped as he says, ''I, I'm the center offspring of my loved ones. My folks generally contrast me and my more youthful and senior kin. In any case, when I request consideration from them. They will ridicule me. They will affront me, chuckle at me, bother me, did everything with me that I in a roundabout way did to you.'' Marcel stopped however at that point hold both Daisy's hands in his. Anna got dazed at this, Edward was going to hit him square upside the head as he mumbled, ''This charlatan'' yet Drake rushed to get him, flagging him to discreetly tune in. ''I did so horrendous to you, that day I had a battle with my folks as they were constraining me to pick a calling that I won't ever care about. I was at that point pissed and believed a casualty should allow everything to out. Then I saw you sitting close to my seat. I considered it an ideal. However, at that point he came... Edward. He halted me, and his words made the responsibility develop me by and by as I reviewed the second year occurrence. However, I would rather not apologize it will hurt my inner self. That is the reason I paused. Paused or a potential chance to show him a thing or two through you. Yet, I went too far I see.'' Marcel says as he peers down at Daisy's swollen wrists.

He gradually scoured her hand with the rear of her hand in an encouraging manner that made blush showed up on her ruddy cheeks as Edward battles in Drake's grasp. ''Perceive how wounded your wrists are. How numb skull of myself to let out the entirety of my indignation on a fragile individual like you. I pushed you too beyond reach that it made you let out the entirety of your confidential stuff. Be that as it may, which made me extremely upset and the culpability in it to kill me was your absent state. The manner in which you blacked out and set down oblivious before me tormented me. Till today I feel really upset for my activities.'' Marcel says as he burst out crying. Daisy stood a stage to wipe them, however Marcel halted her. ''No pay attention to me, I'm only a weakling Daisy. A pitiable individual. I just was unreliable from my own self and allowed everything to out on you. Who knew nothing about it.'' with that Marcel cower. Daisy herself stooped down too as he covered his face with his palms. ''I pardon you Marcel, it was not your shortcoming. Anybody would make it happen if they were not upheld. It' not your shortcoming. Simply don't rehash this approve?''

Marcel checked out at Daisy with sorrowful eyes. "Truly?" He asked as he was unable to trust her. "Indeed, I excuse you, we as a whole did, didn't we?" Daisy ask as she pivots to view at her companions as undeniably were checking her in wonder out. "Better believe it, I forgive you", Drake trilled procuring a glare from Edward, "No doubt I forgive you as well" Anna said reluctantly. Both Daisy and Marcel stood up as Anna says, "However guarantee me you will not rehash exactly the same thing", "Promise" Marcel answered. They all were grinning at one another when Daisy looked at Edward smoldering out of frustration as he reported boisterously, "I don't forgive you, I can't." Daisy saw him shocked. "It's alright" Marcel says. "You need to pay for how you treated Daisy" Edward harshly says. "Edward!" Daisy shorts Edward yet Marcel says, "No Daisy, let him. Let me know Edward how I might acknowledge your statement of forgiveness"

With that Marcel got a hard smack all over as he staggered to ground. Daisy and Anna both heaved as they covered their mouths. While Drake hurried to get a handle on Edward however he pushed him to the side and snatched Marcel from the neckline of his shirt as he snarls at his face, "This! I need this. I need to beat you such a lot of that you will think for your dear life assuming you at any point hurt 'My Girl Daisy Rose' at any point down the road. I guarantee you I will break each bone in your body on the off chance that she cried as a result of you once again. As she has pardoned you, I excuse you as well" with that Edward push him back to ground. Marcel was totally upset by Edward's activity however he didn't protect himself. "No aggravation, as I merited your resentment, Edward". Edward grinned priggishly at him, as he lifted his hand for Marcel. Marcel hold it to stand up as the two of them grinned cockingly at one another.

There we have Daisy grinning by any stretch of the imagination of them as they are snickering together yet her heart is beating hard in her chest as the words, "My Girl Daisy Rose" are going in her mind consistently making a blush crawled all over as they all chuckle together.
