I promise it'll get better

chapter 15: this girl and her trust issues!!!

"So, I'll call you with my home phone since I don't have a cell. But if my..." I almost gave it away. "Er... Mom... is using it I don't know if I'll be able to." It was the third day of school and Abigale and I haven't stopped learning about each other. She's actually quite awesome. "How come you never talk about your parents??" Oh crap. She noticed. "I don't not talk about them. You've just never asked." We both knew it was a lie because she's asked about them plenty of times but I always reflect it back to her parents or change the subject. "Please, I ask about them all the time. Why is it such a bad thing to tall about them?? Are they weird? Don't worry, lots of parents are weird. You can tell me anything." C'mon bell... RING ALREADY. "Is the bell late?? It seems like it should be ringing." She's gonna notice. "See? You're doing it again. Please just tell me. I've told you about my family." I don't know if I should tell her. I've only known her for three days, its not like she's my lifelong friend. "Maybe another time. I just don't think we're ready for that trust fall yet." OK that should do it. "What if we did do a trust fall? I'll go first get up!!" "No Abby. I just don't feel comfor--" and she's dragging me up from my desk before I can finish. "Seriously?? I don't want to do--" "YA BETTER CATCH ME!!" UGH!!! She has a thick skull. So I caught her like a good friend. "Ok. You trust me but I'm not going to purposefully fall. Its not happening and never will." "Jeezus you have trust issues. It must be worse than I thought." IT WAS ALL A TRICK TO SEE IF I HAVE TRUST ISSUES?!?! "Wow. Really? You tricked me? I kinda thought I could trust you more than that!! Hahaha I'm just kidding Abby. But really, I just don't like talking about it right now. Maybe in a few months. Please just understand." "OK." And without another world about it, we talked about weekend plans, even though it was only Wednesday, for the last six minutes of study hall.
