《Damn You (Z.M.)》46 dalis

Nesitikėjau, kad tai bus mano mama. Juk ji dar neturėjo grįžti, ar ne?
- Mama, ką tu čia veiki? - paklausiau vis dar nustebusi.
- Jei tik būčiau žinojusi kas vyksta, būčiau grįžusi ir dar anksčiau. - jos akyse kaupėsi ašaros.
- Mama... - nusiminiau.
Nemėgau, kai mano artimi žmonės kentėdavo.
- Kodėl nepaskambinai man ir nepasakei, kad laukiesi, kad susiradai vaikiną? Mieloji, kodėl tu ligoninėje? - klausinėjo mama.
Šyptelėjau. Tipinis mamos rūpestis.
- Viskas gerai, mama, aš tikrai būčiau dar išgyvenusi visa tai. - nusijuokiau.
- Brangute, aš tavęs taip pasiilgau. - ji mane stipriai apkabino.
- Mam, tu mane sutraiškysi. - juokiausi aš.
Ji atsitraukė šypsodamasi.
- Kaip vaikelis? Kas jo tėtis? - žiūrėjo į mane.
- Viskas gerai, mam, rimtai. - sukrizenau. - O tėvelis - Zayn, vaikinas iš mano mokyklos, mūsų kaimynas.
- Diana, o tu pagalvojai kas dabar bus su tavo mokslais? - susirūpino.
- Nesijaudink, mama, juk tai jau paskutiniai metai. Netrukus bus ir išleistuvės. - šypsojausi.
- Na, jei jau taip sakai. - nusišypsojo.
Kelias minutes vyravo tyla, kai staiga mamos veido išraiška pasikeitė. Šiek tiek sunerimau.
- Nesąžininga, kai vaikai miršta anksčiau nei tėvai... - nutęsė.
- Mam, apie ką tu kalbi? - sutrikau.
- Diana, mieloji, aš žinau, kad tu sergi Leukemija. - jos akyse vėl susikaupė ašaros.
Mano širdis ėmė daužytis stipriau. Iš kur mano mama žino apie ligą?
- Man pasakė tavo gydytoja, nes pasakiau, kad esu tavo mama. - ji tarsi atsakė į mano nepasakytą klausimą.
Nudelbiau akis į savo rankas. Po galais, jaučiuosi tokia kalta, kad nepasakiau mamai kas vyksta...
- Paklausyk, brangute, tu pasveiksi. Esu tikra, kad visi prisidės ir tave palaikys. - ji šypsojosi, bet kartu ir verkė.
Buvo skaudu matyti mamą tokią. Juk ji puoselėja tuščias viltis. Leukemija nėra ta liga, kuri lengvai išgydoma, ji praktiškai neišgydoma. Juk tai kraujo vėžys... Prireiktų stebuklo.

Palatos durys vėl netikėtai atsidarė ir pro jas įlėkė Zayn. Palaukit, Zayn?
Jis kiek pasimetęs žiūrėjo į mano mamą, o ji į jį.
- Jūs tikriausiai ponia Clay, tiesa? - Zayn kreipėsi į mano mamą pirmasis.
Ji linktelėjo ir paspaudė Zayn ranką.
- O aš Zayn, jūsų dukters vaikinas. - prisistatė.
- Vadink mane Lizz, vaikine. - nusijuokė mano mama, kai jie paleido vienas kito rankas.
Zayn sukrizeno ir linktelėjo. Tada priėjo arčiau manęs ir pabučiavo į kaktą.
- Kaip tu, mažyte? - paklausė žiūrėdamas į mane.
Nenorėjau kelti scenų prie mamos, bet Zayn, anksčiau ar vėliau, dėl savo melo vis tiek gaus pasiaiškinti.
- Viskas gerai. - šyptelėjau. - O tu ar neturėtum būti pas Harry? - visgi paklausiau.
Tuomet Zayn pasisuko į mano mamą.
- Ponia Lizz, galėtumėt trumpam palikti mus vienus? - paklausė jis.
Mano mama supratingai linktelėjo ir išėjo iš palatos. Vos durys užsidarė, Zayn atsitraukė nuo manęs ir jo veide matėsi keistas sumišimas.
- Ar kas atsitiko? - sunerimau.
Jis pakėlė akis į mane, tačiau šįkart aš nesugebėjau jų įskaityti.
- Harry pas tave buvo, tiesa? - jo balsas skambėjo labai įtartinai.
Papurčiau galvą, nenorėjau įtraukti Harry į bėdą.
- Po velnių, nemeluok man, Dia! - jo balso tonas staiga išaugo.
Aš krūptelėjau. Zayn atrodė piktas ir susierzinęs. Tarsi kažkas būtų įvykę. Galėčiau pasakyti, kad dabar aš netgi šiek tiek bijojau.
Zayn nuėjo prie lango ir žiūrėjo pro jį. Tikriausiai jis bandė nusiraminti.
- Nenoriu, kad tarp mūsų būtų paslapčių, Dia. Todėl manau, kad turėtum kai ką žinoti apie lenktynes. - atsisuko į mane.
Linktelėjau parodydama, kad tęstų.
Jis giliai atsiduso.
- Suprasiu jei mane smerksi, bet lenktynėse aš pasinaudojau Bri... Norėjau tave apsaugoti. - jis žiūrėjo į savo rankas.
Buvau sukrėsta. Nejau Zayn ją išprievartavo? O Dieve... Aš nemaniau, kad jis taip galėtų...
- Dia? - jis kreipėsi į mane.

- Kodėl tu man tai pasakei? - žiūrėjau tiesiai į jį.
- Nenoriu, kad turėtume paslapčių. - tai buvo vienintelis jo atsakymas.
Papurčiau galvą.
- Prievarta, Zayn? To nenusipelnė nė viena mergina, net ir tokia kaip Bri. - stipriai užsimerkiau.
Juk aš pati tai patyriau. Tiek skausmo ir tas nenoras prisileisti žmones...
- Atleisk, bet kitaip ji būtų kenkusi tau, o dabar ji nebesikiš, esu tuo tikras. - tarė.
- Dieve, Zayn, koks skirtumas? Prievarta nebuvo būtina! - net stebėjausi kaip greitai išaugo mano balsas.
- Tai geriau, kad ji būtų nužudžius tave ir mūsų vaiką?! - jis taip pat šaukė.
- Ką tu čia nusišneki?! Juk ji nežudys manęs viduryje lenktynių. - nelinksmai nusijuokiau.
- Nelaimingas atsitikimas, o kaltų nėra, Dia. Štai kokia mirtis būtų buvusi tau. - rimtai pasakė.
Akimirkai sustingau. Buvau pakraupusi. Nejau žmonės tokie bejausmiai?
- Dabar manęs nesmerksi? - pažvelgė į mane.
Papurčiau galvą.
- Aš juk myliu tave, bet vis tiek, Zayn, o jei tu būtum padaręs tai ir man? - žiūrėjau į jį.
Jis priėjo prie manęs ir delnu švelniai prilietė mano skruostą.
- Manai galėčiau tave nuskriausti? - tyliai paklausė.
- Ne. - sušnabždėjau.
Zayn menkai šyptelėjo ir pabučiavo mano viršugalvį, tada apkabino ir laikė savo glėbyje.
Po galais, kodėl man atrodo, kad jis kitoks? Toks uždaras ir šaltas? Kas vyksta? Nejau aš imu nepasitikėti Zayn?

Godfather Of Champions
This is a story about the pursuit of victory.— «I subscribe only to the theory of victory. I only pursue victory. As long as I am able to obtain victory, I don’t care if it’s total football or counterattack. What is the ultimate goal of professional soccer? In my opinion, it is victory, and the pinnacle of victory is to become the champions. I am a manager. If I don’t wish to lose my job or be forgotten by the people, there’s only one path for me to take, and that is to lead the team in obtaining victories, in obtaining championship titles!»The main character was not well-liked by people.— «⋯We conducted a survey which had been deemed by Manager Tony Twain as extremely meaningless. In a random street survey conducted, ninety-three percent of those surveyed chose the option ‘I hate Tony Twain’, while only seven percent chose the option ‘This person is rather decent, I like him’. It is worth noting that nobody chose the option ‘Who is Tony Twain? I don’t know him’. Mark, do you know why Manager Twain felt that our survey was very meaningless?» Parker, a reporter from laughed loudly and said when he was being interviewed by BBC.But there were also people who were madly in love with him.— When Tony Twain was forced to talk about the survey conducted by during an interview, his reply was : «I am happy, because Nottingham Forest’s fans make up seven percent of England’s population.»And he did not seem to care about how the others saw him.— «What are you all trying to make me say? Admit that I am not popular, and everywhere I go will be filled with jeers and middle fingers. You all think I will be afraid? Wrong! Because I am able to bring victory to my team and its supporters. I don’t care how many people hate me and can’t wait to kill me, and I also won’t change myself to accommodate the mood of these losers. You want to improve your mood? Very simple, come and defeat me.»His love story had garnered widespread attention.— «Our reporters took these pictures at Manager Tony Twain’s doorsteps. It clearly shows that Shania entered his house at 8.34pm and she did not leave the house throughout the night at all. But Manager Tony Twain firmly denies, and insists that that was merely the newest-model inflatable doll which he had ordered.He was the number one star of the team.— «⋯ Became the spokesperson of world-wide famous clothing brands, shot advertisements, frequented the fashion industry’s award ceremonies, endorsed electronic games, has a supermodel girlfriend. His earnings from advertisements exceed his club salary by seventeen times, owns a special column in various print medias, publishing his autobiography (in progress), and is even said that he is planning to shoot an inspirational film based off his own person experiences! Who can tell me which part of his life experiences is worthy of being called ‘inspirational’? Hold on⋯. Are you all thinking that I’m referring to David Beckham? You’re sorely mistaken! I’m talking about Manager Tony Twain⋯.»He was very knowledgeable about Chinese soccer.— «⋯ I’ve heard about it, that Bora gifted four books to his manager Mr. Zhu before your country’s national team’s warm up match. After which, the team lost 1:3 to a nameless American team from Major League Soccer. The new excuse that Mr. Zhu gave for losing the match, was that Bora gifted «books» (‘books’ and ‘lose’ are homophones in the Chinese language). Here, I recommend that you guys find out what that one specific book is. Which book? Of course the one that caused you all to score a goal. After that, tell me the title of the book. Before every match, I will gift ten copies of that same book to you. In that case, won’t you all be able to get a triumphant 10:0 win over your opponents every time?» An excerpt taken from Tony Twain’s special column in a certain famous Chinese sports newspaper.He was loved and hated by the press.— «He has a special column in at least four renowned print media, and he is able to get a considerable amount of remuneration just by scolding people or writing a few hundred words of nonsense weekly. While we have to contemplate hard about our drafts for three days before our boss is pleased with it. In an article inside his special column, he scolded and called all of the media ‘son of a bitch’, announcing that he hated the media the most. But every time he publishes an article, we flock towards him like flies which had spotted butter. Why? Because the readers like to read his news and see him scold people. I dare to bet with you, and Manager Tony Twain knows clearly in his heart as well, that even though he says that he hates us, he knows that the present him cannot do without us. Similarly, we also cannot do without him. Is this ultimately considered a good or a bad thing?» Bruce Pearce, a reporter from said with a face of helplessness when talking about Tony Twain.But no matter the case, his players were his most loyal believers.— Gareth Bale, «No no, we never had any pressure when playing on our home grounds. Because the pressure is all on the manager. As long as we see him standing by the side of the field, all of us will feel that we will be able to win that match. Even the football hooligans are like meek lambs in front of him!» (After saying this, he began to laugh out loudly)The reply from George Wood, the team captain of Nottingham Forest, was the most straightforward. «We follow him because he can bring us victory.»The legendary experience of Tony Twain, the richest, most successful, most controversial manager with the most unique personality!Debuting this summer.Thank you for reading.

As the Godking Wills
The Empire and the Church span almost the entirety of the known world, absent some pockets of lawlessness and the realms of the deceiver. They are governed as a despotic theocracy, ruled in name by the solitary and omnipotent God, Al'Shazan.In practice, Al'Shazan is bored, flighty, cruel and has little interest in ruling the Empire. Instead the Empire is run by the High Priest, Minister of the Treasury, and the Knight Commander of the inquisition. Their job is to make sense of the contradictory nonsense spewed forth by their living God while simultaneously ruling the greatest nation that the world has ever known. The entire time, they have to maintian the facade that Al'Shazan is a benevolent and loving God in order to maintain morale in the general populace. --------- The actual genre for this is more along the lines of a Fantasy Political Comedy/Drama/Thriller. It will not be 'crunchy' (minimal action, minimal descriptions of powers/abilities) but instead be focusing on world building and political maneuvering. As a warning, it is fairly dark.
