It's another weekend. Garrett and Sarah invited me to hang out with them but I declined. I'm too tired to go out and meet people. Especially after met him.

Why do I have to meet him again? After all these months, it's like all my efforts are being throw out of the window. I avoided him, and this is what I get back? Is this some sick joke?

I sighed and got my laptop out. Nothing better than take my mind off right now. I got into Tumblr website and looked around for motivations or laugh. While I scrolled down the feeds, something caught my attention and I read it.

I don't realized that I was crying until I felt itchy on my jaw and scratched it.

God, why is this happening to me? I clicked 'close' of the browser window and shut my laptop down. I need air. Fresh air. I wiped my tears with my shirt and walked out of the room and the house. I don't bother to let my mom know that I'm going out. Besides, she knows that I never like stay in my room for a long period of time.

I walked to the park in my neighbourhood. It tooks me around ten minutes to reach there. When I arrived, I saw it's kind of crowded near the playground. Avoided the crowd, I went near the trees at the corner and climbed one of the trees. I sat on the tree branch and took deep breaths. At least the tree I sat on was far from people.

I closed my eyes and let myself listen to the sound of birds and wind. I smiled to myself when I feel much better. Guess that being alone outside is much better than at home.

"Don't you scare that you might fall off this tree?". I jumped and almost fall off but managed to balance myself back and glared at the person at the bottom of the tree.

"What the hell are you doing here?", I asked. Garrett shrugged and decided to climbed before sat next to me. Thank God the branch could handle both of our weights.

"I saw you when you walked into the park. I waved at you but you don't notice me", he said. I shrugged back at him. What should I say? I prefer duck my head and be in my own world.

"Where's Sarah?", I asked him. "She went home, her mom asked her to do errands", he replied. I nodded my head in understanding.

"Are you gonna tell me why you looked like your pet die just now?", I was surprised at his question. No, I don't have a pet. I'm surprised that he would ask me this question. Usually, if I was not in good mood, he would keep quiet and leave me alone.

But I didn't answer him. It's not that I don't want to share my problem with him. I'm not ready yet.

However, Garrett doesn't give up. "Is this something to do with Finn?". I looked at him, shocked.

Noticed my reaction, he explained. "I felt that you guys know each other than acquitances. So I asked him and he told me". He sighed before continue, "Why you don't tell me that he was your ex boyfriend?".

"I'm sorry, I don't think it's a big deal". I looked away from him and stared at my feet. "It's not, but at least you would tell me because I'm your friend, Am".

He put his arm around my shoulder and I rested my head on his shoulder. "I'm really sorry, Gar. I should have tell you sooner".

He shook his head. "It's okay. Do you want to tell me why your eyes are red just now?". I sighed.

"Nothing important. I'm just want to get out of the house". Garrett looked confused and wanted to ask more. But thankfully, he didn't.
