unconditionally perplexed | 1

xi.

in between those two years

i finally grew a pair

and told you.

i told you

that

i had

a tiny itty bitty crush

on you

the year before.

your eyes

widened in shock,

however..

"it's okay."

you told me,

smiling that sweet smile of yours.

although it was the truth,

it was only 1/3 of it;

but i still felt

relieved

after i told you.

like two mountains

had been

lifted

off my shoulders.

i didn't want to risk our friendship.

i had a small number of friends

due to the number of people

i couldn't

trust.

plus..

i was bad at making friends.
