"It's just so-"

"Otilia, I will go and talk to your teacher, did anyone hurt you?" he repeated the question again

I play with my charm bracelet as I watch the scene in front of me, he's so caring yet he doesn't want to show it, he's so protective, yet he doesn't care to what extend it takes him to protect someone he cares about. This is what his action explains to me about his personality 

"No!" Otilia exclaimed "There is no need to go the teacher" she said. Kaiden stands straight and rests his body against the back of the sofa, pulling his little cute sister towards him "Then what is it?" he asked her softly and she starts tearing up "It's just some girl trouble, you won't understand it" she answered and then ran upstairs 

"Otili-"

"Can I go talk to her?" I ask him softly, turning his attention towards me "I'll just have a small talk with her" I suggested 

"There is no n-fine" he sighed and I smile, placing my bag against the sofa and jogging upstairs following Otilias step, the moment I reached the top of the stairs I follow the sound of soft sobs and slowly opened the door to find Otilia resting on her grey bed crying softly 

"Hey" I whisper and she faces me, trying to dry her tears off "W-what are you doing here?" she asks and I smile "Can I come in?" I asked and she nods her head "I thought maybe we can have a small talk, just me and you - you know some girl talk" I suggested and she swallows, sitting up straight 

"B-but how can I trust you? I just met you" she said softly and I smile "We'll be great friends because I'll be spending more time here with Kaiden, therefore I can spend more time with you and we can be best friends" I lied a bit and she nods her head "Okay okay, it's just that I don't have anyone to talk to, and if I tell mum what happened she'll just say 'it's okay, everything happens for a reason' you know" I chuckle as Otilia squeaked her voice higher trying to imitate her mom 

"Okay, now what's the problem?" I ask her and she crosses her legs pulling me towards her 

"So, today in school I was with my friends in our lunch break and then Carlos, this guy, came and tried to annoy me like always" she started and I nod my head "I got so annoyed, and walked out of the cafeteria but he followed me, we ended up in the schools garden" she explained slowly 

"I started yelling at him, and out of no were he-he-"

"He what?"

"He kissed me" she whispered as her eyes started to tear up "I got so-ugh-so mad and slapped him and pushed him so hard causing his head to hit against the broken log that was behind him"

"Otilia" I whisper in shock

This was her girl problem? My girl problems back then was having no pink cotton candy like the other girls 

"Is he okay?" I ask softly and she shakes her head "He's in the hospital" she sobbed "I didn't mean for this to happen, his parents were upset but after taking him to the hospital his mum tried calming me down after the doctor said that it was a simple injury" Otilia said and I take a deep breath 

"You're sad because he's in the hospital?" I asked and she nods her head

"I'm upset because I did such a stupid thing like this, I didn't mean to hurt him. I mean ya, he's annoying and acts stupid and even though he stole my first kiss, I still don't want him in the hospital in pain" she whispered 

I can't believe I'm going to encourage an eleven year old girl to bloom her relationship with a boy

"You like him, don't you?" I ask and her eyes go wide
