I can't......

Continued from this:[link]


Agneta felt her pistons rush as their faces were getting closer and closer. She closed her eyes, right before their lips touched. Then a completely different car came up for her inner eye. A red corolla… one green and one brown eye… sparkling white smile… Rafael… Her pistons skipped a beat, like they always did when she saw him. That’s when she knew…
She backed away, right before their lips would meet in a kiss. Tears filled her eyes as she met Fluke’s confused stare.
“I… I can’t…” she started. “I don’t… have the right feelings for you, Fluke… I really wish I had. You’re a great guy, and… you deserve to be loved… but…”
She was babbling, she could have slapped herself for that. It sounded totally ridiculous. She looked up, it felt like her engine was going to be teared apart when she saw Fluke’s painful expression. A tear tickled her side as is rolled down. She didn’t wipe it away.
“I understand…” Fluke didn’t look at her anymore, he had turned halfway away. His pistons were pounding hard and painful, it was suddenly hard to breathe. He took a deep breath, but still it felt like he couldn’t get enough air. He had to get away… now… fast… He swallowed.
“Bye, Agneta…” he said without looking at her. He drove away slowly, feeling like a car from the early 20th century. His body felt numb, his axles was like jelly. He had to get away before he lost all his dignity. He speeded up, disappearing in distance.
Agneta looked after him, until his taillights couldn’t be seen anymore. Now, she was free again… free to try winning Rafael’s heart. But why didn’t it feel like a relief? Why did it feel so hard? Why did she cry?

Sleipner gasped as he saw the two cars break away from each other. He had hoped to see them kiss, he loved romantic moments like that.
“What is she doing?!” he whispered.
“Breaking his heart…” was Voltz dry reply. It sounded so cold and hard. Sleipner looked at him sideways to see if his face matched his voice. But even Voltz looked sad on Fluke’s behalf.
“Fluke!! Wait up!!” Titania speeded after her brother, but was held back by Maximo.
“I think he would need some time alone now, Titania…” the older car said wisely.
Titania stared after her brother’s taillights, but let him go. She would be there for him later… Right now… he was on his own. She tried to push her concern away, but it still kept coming into her mind. He wouldn’t hurt himself… would he…?
Maximo put a tire on her bumper. “Don’t worry… I’ve known you both since you were kids. Fluke would never harm himself because of a girl… he’s just not the type.”
Titania tried to smile, but she still couldn’t let go of the thought. She drove back to Voltz, crying on his fender. Surprising enough, he didn’t push her away, like he usually would. His tire stroked her carefully, though a tad clumsy, as he was not used to show affection in front of others.
“Thanks, Voltz… I needed that right now…” she whispered, noticing that Agneta drove away in the other direction of where Fluke went.
