The Truth

"So you don't like her anymore" I questioned you later that night." I waited for five minutes until you responded " I do just not like that." A lot of the things you told me never made sense so this one I dismissed. "Ok, can I now tell her?" She wanted to know for a long time, you knew that and told me that you wanted to wait a little longer." Your stalling, because your scared of rejection." I told him immediately. "Sure, you could call it fear of rejection" then you went quiet. " Is it fear of rejection or just a fear of fear and talking to her?" I knew that I was right, like I normally was with you two. I could read both of you like a book. It wasn't difficult or a guessing game at all. She was ready to tell you that she liked you but I said wait. Someone had to break this unbearable and unforgiving silence one day, I was going to make sure it was you, not her. " You need to tell her today, you've told me now for three weeks that that day was today but today hasn't come for you yet." He kept avoiding today and moved on. "You know you can't avoid me, her, or even the words you need to say for forever ya know!" I told him, determined and on a mission for her. It was difficult not to tell her that you liked her from day one, I kept my promise to you that we made the second day of school. Neither of us would break the promises we made to each other, and intended to keep it that way. A lot of the times we would talk in German so she wouldn't understand what we were saying. Still determined I asked one last time if you like her and you responded with " Ich leiben her." (I love her) Excited I told you what you had said. " Oh right, I didn't mean to say that." You responded with embarrassment. "LIAR!" I yelled at you a little too loudly. "You knew exactly what you had said or else you wouldn't have told me!" That was it. All the proof I needed. You told me later that night that, yes you had in fact meant to say that you just needed an excuse since she was right there sitting next to you. " I knew that and that's why I called you a liar." Then I continued " You made it too easy for her to guess what you had said so I help out me for your benefit." I knew what to do. "Thankyou." That's all he said. I couldn't tell her, until you were ready to.
