Ficlets

Why?

Me: You know that’s not true! All I know is that you need help!
Mike: Well you must be really stupid then! The frickin’ help I needed was you, but you let me down! I can’t take this!

Mike dashed off through the trees, disappearing suddenly.

Me: Mike!
Kahn: Don’t go after him. You’ll get lost.
Me: No!

Kahn finally gathered himself together after the fight and walked toward me.

Me: Nu-nu no. Stay away from me, Kahn.
Kahn: Easy, I’m not going to hurt you.
Me: No Kahn, you said that last time.

I tried to walk around him but he grabbed my forearm forcefully.

Kahn: Hey! I wasn’t done yet!
Me: I don’t care. I don’t want to deal with you now. I have to find Mike.
Kahn: Let that jerk go jump off a cliff.
Me: The only jerk here is you. The cliff?! Oh my god! Let me go!

I pulled free and ran into the forest after Mike. The whole time I was thinking though.
There’s a cliff? Why did there have to be a stupid cliff on this island? The island we happened to crash on. Whywhywhywhy?
