Masked Up

why was it she chose to stare at me, still an unknown question.

but what made her stare at me, was more than five answers in total.

and i actually had the courage to ask, and not mind the weird stares i got from interacting with other people.

"err- can i help you?" i felt her tense at the close proximity i had chosen to stand at.

"help?" she had asked. i nodded.

"i'm not the one that needs help." she said, thin lipped.

and just like that, she walked away.

she walked away from me like you walked out of my life.
