ivan joined us,
for shopping.
he said,
he had time,
to spare,
while waiting,
for his friends,
to arrive,
later.
i let ash,
to walk,
in between us,
because,
i wasn't,
familiar,
with him.
ash wanted to,
buy clothes,
i wanted to,
buy shoes,
and ivan,
was tagging,
along.
ash didn't,
stop teasing me,
and i teased,
him back,
and said,
'you can't,
hold yourself,
that well,
in horror movies,
either.'
ivan laughed,
it was beautiful.
and i felt good,
of myself.
