Summary: It hurts to push him away. But it is for the best. For both of them.
Notes: Constructive criticism is, as always, welcome
Her foot is pushing the pedal. Hands, dripping wet, giving shape to the clay. Pottery. It’s been a long time ago since she last tried to make something herself. But – even without having to think too much about it – she still knows exactly how it has to be done.
There is a small yet happy smile on her face. The rhythmic sound calming her. It makes her realise what she has to do. Nick deserves better than this.
“Hey there.”
Speaking of the devil… She doesn’t look up when he enters the room.
“Wow. Pottery. You know how to do that?”
There is genuine wonder in his voice. And still she does not react. Of course he notices her mood. Of course he has noticed she’s avoiding him.
“What’s the matter Freya?”
He sees her take a deep breath. Prepares himself for… He doesn’t know what for. But he knows, he feels, that whatever it is she’s going to say, it will be a blow.
“I’m not going back home.”
Out of the corner of her eyes she can see the shock on his face.
“What?”
She just keeps on spinning the wheel, her hands still shaping the ceramic pot.
“I’m staying here. I’m staying in Japan.”
Nick shakes his head. “Is this because of the cancer? Freya, because…”
He backs off a step when he sees the angry look on her face.
“I’m staying Nick. And I don’t want you here. I don’t want you close to me anymore. So just get out of here and leave me alone.”
The guy flinches as if he has been slapped. There is no anger. Not at all. Just an incredible sadness.
“Freya.”
He sees how she stops pushing the pedal. The pot perfect.
“Just accept it. I’m staying. And you’re going back home. And we’re not going to see each other anymore. And now I just want you to leave me alone. Just, leave me alone. Go and leave me alone.”
There is a strange look in her eyes. One he can’t place. One he doesn’t dare to contradict.
Without another word, he walks out of the room, slamming the door shut behind him. Leaving Freya alone at the fire where she is baking the pot.
She knows exactly what hurt him the most. I don’t want you close to me anymore.
“God Nick…”
Sobbing she takes the pot out of the fire and puts it in a barrel filled with sawdust. The first tear falls down just when she closes the lit. This just broke her heart.
