"It's hard to trust someone, because we never know what they want from the start"

It's been a month since Lily and Ashton started talking they spent many hours in just talking and they didn't know that by spending time with each other is that there is something building up along the way. That is they slowly becoming Bestfriends and they find friendship is just talking and sharing things with each other.

Lily didn't have any clue that Ashton is suffering from something deep in his heart that sometimes had a battle with himself. But also Ashton never know that since Grade school Lily has been dealing with this anxiety and kind of mild depression that she hide it by smiling and making everyone happy and sometimes by making everyone happy no one else notice that Lily is suffering in something . Talking this topic to Ashton is so hard for Lily because she didn't if Ashton will judge her or will stop talking to her. 

Knowing something like this Ashton promise to himself and to Lily that he will be there to listen to her and spend time with her. The same goes to Lily he told Ashton that she will be there whenever he needs a friend or a shoulder to lean on.

Through out there friendship they become comfortable that Lily open ups about her trauma in people who are shouting so loud or when someone intentionally shouted just to scare her. Also she told him how her body  shake or how she gets cold because of the action of someone. It takes half an hour to settle the nerve shaking she had and also  she needs to listen to some music that can make her forget the scene or the sounds of someone shouting or screaming.

Listening to this Ashton feel so sad that Lily had to go through this trauma. Lily told Ashton that growing up she attempt to suicide she tried so many times and there are time she forget doing it but there is one thing that trigger this action and that's is the way people say things and making her feel like less and that's the last straw for her to start cutting her wrist and let it bleed.

Ashton never knew that Lily suffer from all of this he never knew that at some point he and Lily had in common and  how they handle things.

Talking about this kind of stuff is very hard for Lily but at some point she feel like she need to say this to someone so that the heavy feeling she had for so long will ease and will lighten the burden she is suffering by sharing.
