Sleep Talking

Selina Johnson | Apartment |

It was refreshing to have a walk alone at night once in a while, somewhere away from city. The streets seemed well oriented and staggeringly calm which was conflicting my personal imagination of how things should be there. The brightness from various light decorations appeared to be trying their best to fight off and unravel the mysterious aura that comes down with the darkness.

Shen was asleep when I got back from Jerry's. There were some cans of soda left in the storage. I grabbed one and made my way towards the balcony to pass the time. A sound made me notice that Shen had managed to put his legs out of the blanket. That reminded me of the time I got him out of his imprisonment at clinic and how he was able to walk on his own.

-Huh, Mom used to say that I also had a bad habit of kicking and spinning all over my bed while sleeping,- Probably because of my unstable mind the thoughts inside of it escaped through my mouth.

-...(light sound of breathing).

-Here you go,- After putting him back inside the blanket I decided to turn the table lamp off and take a place beside him to get some rest.

Apartment | 9:37 A.M

-Hey? Hey Johnson? Get off me!

-Hmm..

-Selina! Ugh..let go! Get up.

-...

-What's wrong with her grip? Damn! You brute..

-...Oh..do we have to get up so early?

-It's late enough! Selina?!

-C'mon..let's skip today.

-We've been skipping days for almost a week now.

-...(moaning).

-Selina..

-Yes...Han.

-...

-I..love...youuu. My Haaan.

-Get up Selina!!!

-..Wha! Shen? No,- Noticing the way we had been sleeping I jumped straight out of the bed and ran towards the shower without saying anything.

-You should say...good..morning...first.

.

-Selina?- After the awkward moment we had in the morning I was putting up the stereotypical act of ignoring the other person in the context. Shen broke through it.

-If it's about the morning then I am sorry. I really am; it was a dream.

-Hmm. Intriguing dream.

-..(Phone rings).

-...Who's that?

-Just be quite.

.

-You should know, I am gonna make it confirm with the department today about you.

-In that case, let's make this simple. You either shoot me here right now and end it or let me walk away.

-Oh not this again...what's with you and trying to get shot?

-...

-God..

-You know what I am doing if you force me.

-You will run.

-...

-Whatever..do what you think is best. I am gonna have to check in at the office soon.

-So?

-So make a decision.

-Where are you going?

-Out.

-...

-I am gonna change. Get something delivered if you want.

.

.

-Can I go with you?

-Why?

-Exercise.

-What happened to the lonewolf?

-Depends, me or Han?

-You...what do you know about Han!?
