《The Pig and the Frog》SIXTEEN
Advertisement
I have my hands out the window of the rental car we got. We don't know where we are going, but in the moment, who cares. She grew up too fast. They would always say.
But being grown up means you see the truth in the world. And you get what you want. Well, you know how to get it.
We've been gone for about a month. I think. We weren't going anywhere in life, so we left it all behind. We can start over.
We can be mended. We mend each other.
"Where to next?" I ask, we are traveling the country. There's so many places. So many sights. "Can we visit some friends, ones I made in Washington?"
He smiles a lot. "I have friends there too. Let's go there." I grab his hand, and give it a squeeze, as we ride in silence for who knows how long.
My eyes drift off for a while, relaxed more than I ever have been. And once I wake up, we are already in Oregon. So many trees, lakes, and big rigs.
So many big rigs. We pass Crater Lake, Tobias getting a little nervous from the heights.
He doesn't push me like anyone else did. He's patient. And I say something I never thought I was capable of saying.
"Tobias..." I pause a little, and he looks at me for a second. "I...I love you." I see the grin on his face, and he squeezes my hand.
"I love you too Tris." He has always said it to me, but I could never find myself saying it back. I was always at a loss for words.
"Hey Trissy?" I look over at a still smiling Tobias, his eyes on the road still. I roll my eyes at the nickname.
"Yah?" I look at him, my hair blowing in my face now. I move it from my face.
"What do you want to be now?" I give him a confused face. "Like a job?"
I raise an eyebrow, and smile, remembering the last conversation we had before I left. "I still want to be a frog."
He looks at me and smiles, also remembering.
"And I still want to be a pig."
