(TW : mention of abuse)

Jake and I have been friends from few months. We knew eachother before too, but was not so close back then.

One day, he had some work with me and that was the day our friendship begun.

He's a quite understanding guy. Yeah, he can be a little noisy too but overall he's all good.

My family wasn't the best family. They expected too much from me. From grading good to doing all those things which I hate doing it. My parents are insecure. Too much- idk what will happen after I'll graduate highschool.

Jake and I made a plan of going to school together. I go with bus tho, but this time we both will walk to school. My parents don't know about him. And I was risking it.

I never liked overthinking. It was my ex, who made me mentally unstable. Only if I never wasted time on him... I would've been in a better condition.

I imagined all the worst case scenarios. What if the teacher saw us? What if some neighbour saw us together? What if something really happened? What if I saw my parents on the way?? What if--

I sighed. It was too much for me. We both had  made a lot of plans on going out but never really worked on them because of my parents. But this time, I was afraid of saying no to him. I don't want him to be upset with me. I was scared because of the beating my father will give.

It's a real trauma for me. I don't know why, now a days, I've been dreaming of him being angry on me, beating me, shouting at me and what not.

I wake up in the middle at the night. The anxiety. It's hard. Hard for me to be there. At the house.

Jakey >-<
I'll text you when I'll leave ok? Be ready

He texted me.

I sighed again and made my way towards the kitchen to eat breakfast.

Jakey >-<
I'm leaving, be there in 5 mins :) and dw, you've me so nothing bad will happen <3

I kinda felt relieved from his text. He knew my condition. And he was respectful to it.

I took my bag and made my way out. Feeling a little scared, I started walking. There was this small road which was not so in a good condition, that was the shortest route to reach there.

"No no no overthinking please." I said to myself feeling the anxiety rising up.

I took a few deep breath and started walking again.

After a Minute, I reached the main road. And there he was. Standing and looking at me. I unknowingly smiled and made my way towards him.

"Let's go?" He asked. I nodded.

He kept his hand on my shoulder and started walking to the school. I was scared yet excited. I never went to school with someone alone, especially with a guy. We were bestfriends tho.

He squeezed my arm. "It's ok, don't worry nothing bad will happen ok?" He reassured me.

The school was quite far from my house.

It was peaceful. We talked about some random things, and joked about our class. It was good. The feeling was free. Only if I could encounter this moment every day...

>Thank you<

(I know this is short (╥﹏╥) but lol yeah it was cute in my head but nvm)
