Drabble

By:  Lillian

 

JOE SAT AT ADAM'S BEDSIDE, GRASPING HIS BROTHER'S HAND AS IF HE WERE HOLDING ON TO DEAR LIFE.

 

"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?"
"WHY DID YOU TACKLE ME?" HIS WORDS WERE RAGGED.
"WHY DO YOU THINK YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO PROTECT ME?
"DO YOU THINK YOU'RE INVINCIBLE? YOU'RE NOT!"
"DO YOU THINK MY LIFE IS WORTH MORE THAN YOURS?  IT'S NOT!"
"YOU LISTEN TO ME, BIG BROTHER.  YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DIE! 
            NOT LIKE THIS…NOT BECAUSE OF ME."

 

JOE WAS ON THE VERGE OF HYSTERIA.

 

"WHY DID YOU DO IT?

 

"BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, BUDDY…"

 

This is my Mother's Day present to all you Moms out there...enjoy!
