•••after the stress of exam day two, josh was a little bit at ease, two more days, then i'm free.
he was currently eating some leftover brownies, and thinking of his friend.
what kind of word could i use to describe him?
the hue went off to find an old dictionary, looking through it, to find beautiful words. only the most divine words could describe his best friend.
he came across a particular word that peeked his interest. 'twas a simple word but he enjoyed the way it flowed off his tongue.
the hazel eyed boy quickly grabbed a journal filled with paragraphs about how his days were. he would refuse to admit to it though.
delight
the most perfect word to describe how to feel when with him
his eyes shine like the sun and he has a heart as bright as ittyler joseph, one i'm proud to call my greatest friend.
he loves me, he doesn't have to tell me though, i know it.
when i think of him and his curly chestnut hair, i find myself having a warm feelin' in my tummy
delight is a simple word. but to one, it amounts to thousands.
he sighs, putting his pen down.
he emerges into his mother's room, her simply folding some laundry.
"mama?"
"yes doll?" his mother awaits his reply."can i ask you something?"
"sure, anything, ask away," he pauses, waiting to see what words to use.
"what does it mean when, if you look at so'eone and your tum feels fuzzy, like your tummy is smilin'?"she lets out a sigh of relief and grins. she knows who he is talking about.
"well, josh, that feeling is love, you love that person. not just mother son love like me and you, it's like, you wanna spend the rest of your life laughing and smiling and loving this person. but sometimes, love can hurt," his mother sniffs, "don't rush anything, you're still young, but josh?"
"yeah ma?"
"before you date tyler tell him i said hi," she giggles, her son flushing a dark pink.
"how'd ya know it was him?" he questions, smiling at ease.
"you look at him the way i used to look at your daddy."
her son looks sad for a moment, but ponders for a while. he won't be like his father. he wasn't sure what happened, or why he was gone, but he wasn't stupid. he will march and declare his love for tyler right now.
•••
tyler can only feel despair, as his house was lonely again, his parents weren't often around, always busy with something.
