You weren't at school today and I was wondering all day why. Then I found out.
You were at home crying. Your mom had died in the crash. I didn't know what to say. I didn't know what to think.
I saw you on the street on the way. You were in the park. With two white roses in your hand. Without thinking I went up to you and hugged you. I felt your tears soak into my shirt. I didn't pull away and nether did you.
"I'm so sorry." I whispered.
"I thought, I thought after all these years it would get better, but it gets worse. I was really little. Almost three years old. I don't know how I, I remember. I remember being at home waiting for her to call that she got there ok. I don't even remember why she was on that plane. And she called my dad, right before, I never said good-bye." You said. I didn't interrupt you or anything. I hugged you again and I think we spent a good hour or so just siting there.
After I left, did I realize who you were. The guy I have a crush on. I was hugging him, and I didn't notice any of the sort. I didn't do anything embarrassing or nothing.
I guess I just saw someone in tears and went to help.
