You seemed off this day. I didn't see you smile, not even once. Somehow the other ones were down too.
Was it because of me?
I decided that I could at least apologize for running away. Although I was nervous facing you again after I didn't pick up your calls.
I walked over to you after the lesson and you seemed to practically light up. You grinned at me and opened your mouth to speak but before I could hear what you wanted to say my nerves got the best of me and I hurried outside.
I was such a coward.
Wasn't I?
At lunch I sat alone. It was funny but after so many weeks I got used to the six of you. Now it was too quiet.
I wasn't hungry all of a sudden.
I was too busy thinking about how my presence alone made you a victim of so much hate. How I didn't deserve your friendship. How you should just continue to hang out with your friends and not me.
I was so occupied with my own mind that I didn't notice you sitting down in front of me till you called my name.
