When it's not okay...




Tod Trevor sat at the garden of the Saint Anthony Hospital. It was two o' clock. It was scorching hot. And he felt dead deep inside. He told his doctor what happened to him and the only thing that he could recall what Dr. Smith told him was that the things that happened to him were not okay.

He remembered the police officer he talked to and he advised him to formally file charges.

Tod thought for a moment and heaved a sigh of exhaustion.

It's a cruel world indeed and he had to reconcile the fact that it is easier to be out of the picture. His friend from Birmingham told him to pray for Divine Justice.

He did just that but he is still going through a lot.

Tod looked out to the horizon and saw the sun glancing behind the clouds. He told himself people don't realize that they hurt people and even people whom they love. It was poignant. More so, it was plain sad.

Then, he called his twin brother, Ted.

Ted answered and asked how he was doing. Tod told him not good.

Then, Ted told him I will still be in Sweden until the end of the month maybe you could contact Dr. Smith when things turn from bad to worse.

Tod smiled, he replied. Well, Ted, I can pull through this. What happened to me were not okay and it will never be okay but only God can truly forgive. I try but it would not make them okay. God did not want those things to happen to me. But, they did happen to me.

Ted asked him what do you want to do then?

Disappear he said.

Tod, you mean vanish into thin air? he chuckled.

Tod whispered...….

Yes.
