I watched as Kambree got off the bus and I noticed that she was walking with a limp.

She hasn't been answering my phone call or texts so I was ready to see what she had to say. We usually met at the corner table in the courtyard so that's where I stood.

"Hey." She said softly.

"Hey." I frowned noticing her looking at her feet.

"Why you looking down?" I asked

"You're probably mad at me." She sighed.

"Kam what's wrong?" I questioned.

She finally looked up and I saw the tears in her eyes.

"U-Um we can't be friends anymore."She mumbled biting down on her lip.

"Why? Did I do something wrong?" I asked.

She quickly shook her head no. "No, it's not you at all, it's me."

"Well what did you do?" I frowned.

"I-I'm just not a good friend okay, can we just leave it at that?" She sniffled.

"Kambree where this coming from? I'm so confused right now." I stated.

"T-Thanks for taking up for me all those times. Hopefully one day we can rekindle." She mumbled.

"Y-You can't call, text, or come by the house anymore. Please just act like you never met me."

"Wow Kambree."

Honestly I was so confused but sad at the same time. Kambree was growing onto me like a best friend. I've never really had a genuine friend, and now that she was saying all of this I was questioning everything.

"S-So we're not friends anymore?" I asked scratching my neck.

She let out a choked sob and shook her head. "See you around."

And with that she scurried off into the building leaving me looking stupid.

Well looks like I'm back on my anti-social shit. I guess having friends is just not for me.

The bell sounded making kids scurry off to their classes.

I went to my class and sat in my normal seat. I noticed Kambree not in her seat so I pulled out my phone. Then I quickly remembered what she said.

"Act like you never met me." Was all that kept replaying in my head.

I wiped the tear that rolled down my cheek quickly and took out my notebooks.

The late bell had sounded and the teacher and a couple of other students finally walked in.

Kambree finally walked in and came to sit in her regular seat.
