We were both pouting. I walked up to her stiffly and tried to hide the small tear in the corner of my eye, the best I could.
Oh God, this is way harder than I thought.
She didn't look at me. She just fixed her eyes on the floor underneath us -staring into the abyss. I didn't know what to do. I got so clueless.
I let the tear escape and gave her a silky touch on her shoulders. After a second, she latched onto me and hugged me as tight as she could. Tears now running down my eyes, I felt dreadful for ever letting her and myself go through this. I got on my knees and hugged her back.
I wasn't thinking of what she had done, or what I should've.
..
It was for me. The pale turquoise wrist watch, it was for me.
Sky sat with me for several minutes, and we talked our hearts out. "I'm so sorry Miss Lily..." she started in tears.
She told me that she wanted to get me a gift because Melody _ a girl in her orphanage-had given her new mother a gift. And explained how much she seemed to love it. She just wanted me to feel the same.
After a lot of explaining, and a whole lot of tears, we were closer than ever. I took her to her favourite restaurant - the burger joint a couple blocks away - and she was her same high-spirited self again.
"Why can't boys have babies?" she innocently asked me and made me blush and freak out.
..
"I'M IN TROUBLE I'M AN ADDIIIIICT, I'M ADDICTED TO THIS GIRL-"
"My lord Lilly! I didn't know you were bisexual." Josh cut me off from the backseat as I was singing.
"Josh!"
"BIIII,"
"Stop it-"
"BIIII,"
I rolled my eyes then shifted to look at him, "You totally ruined my mood, you know that?"
He grinned. Urgh, idiot.
