i was too scared.

I didn't want to ask for food when I was hungry.

I didn't want to ask him if I could shower.

I didn't want to ask him if I was annoying.

I didn't want to do anything.

I hate myself. Josh soon noticed and grew concerned. He asked me if I was okay a lot and I always lied. I felt bad but I didn't want to. I had to.

"You aren't okay" I was sitting on my bed reading a book and josh came and sat beside you. "I promised to help and support you and that's what I'm going to do" he said. I put my book down. "I'm sorry for lying..." he stopped me.
"It's not your fault! Your scared and I understand that. It's not bad to be scared" he put an arm round me. I nodded guiltily. "don't feel bad. now come on let's go get you some ice cream"

so we had some ice cream and played would you rather. And right now it was a debate over getting whacked in the head with a ukulele or your head bashed onto a drum head. but we got interrupted by a knock on the door. Josh got up and went to go get it and returned with a small parcel. "It's for you"

For me?? That's impossible! I awkwardly opened it up to reveal some candy from the uk and a letter.

It doesn't matter where you live. We're always best friends.

Love from Amy Xx

"It's from my friend Amy" I mumbled. We were pen pals. We've been friends for a quite a while. I saw a few photos inside of us two when we met (I snuck off...). Tears rolled down my cheeks. Josh held me in his arms as I quietly sobbed.

I couldn't ever see amy again. She lives in the U.K.
