But I weep for all I fail to be, I fail to be
Tight numbness spread across her chest; rib cage squished tight in the anticipation nanoseconds before a sneeze. Yet, rather than sneezing in reaction to blinding light, or an irritation in the nasal passage, a bone aching loneliness settled. The desire for soul repairing connection. Though despite the inner healing received through individual relaxation, the chief of security in question thrived off energy produced in the presence of friends, family, and platonic individuals alike.
Here Haukea, rocking on her toes, heel - toes - heel - toes, back and forth, back and forth, plowed her feet contentedly into the sand. It was a mix of emotions oscillating between loneliness, calm comfort and the gripping tightness of each independent rib bone.
Yet, despite it, an invitation had been provided to Gogigobo Fairhug, regarding their previously arranged photography and nature excursion. A vulnerable moment in which station commander turned dear friend Gogigobo played witness to the eccentricities of Haukea-Willow.
Such quirks presented themselves in the slip of a shoe, red converse abandon among the shoreline, toes pressing through the sensations of soft, coarse, hard, wet sand oozing between bare feet, covering the length of bare leg, high-waisted shorts - red & white striped shirt little protection. The sway of the Risian’s body, in time with the ocean, hand flip-floping in a jerky motion, cherry holo-camera dangling from her wrist, back to her companion.
Willow: I have this terrible feeling, it might not work out, all this running. One day I’m going to explode, like an unchecked bomb.
Fairhug: Response
Willow: I get overwhelmed. I don’t know how to control - to enforce boundaries when individual safety is on the line.
Haukea’s hand flipped with increased vigor, an equally positive as well as negative reaction, exhibited in complete honesty, until now exhibited in caution, regulated after childhood.
Fairhug: Response
Willow: Yet, how can I be angry at anyone when I’m most angry with myself?
Fairhug: Response
Turning towards Gogigobo, Haukea plastered on a grin, lightening the atmosphere around the pair of off duty officers. A display of emotional whiplash. Not uncommon for the alexithymic Risian.
Willow: The beach though sure is lovely. ::Her voice pitched up in tone, grin visibly straining neck muscles::
Fairhug: Response
Willow: I do know a hiking trail we could explore.
