Veronica
I can't believe he stood up for me like that. "You know I could of handled that fight right?" I say as I roll my eyes.
"Yeah right." We both laugh.
We get to our next class. It's kind of like freedom hour. We can just sit and chill. The teacher doesn't care what we do. "Hey, thanks for standing up for me back there," I say as casually as possible.
"No problem," he says smiling as we sit down at a table. During the hour we just talked and shared things about ourselves. Actually I was shocked by how much you can learn about someone by just hearing what they have to say.
Then he looks at me. "How often does Gram treat you like that?" He looks pretty concerned.
"Everyday. That's why I hate coming to school. Everyday he tells me the things I already hate about myself. He doesn't understand that people already are dealing with stuff and when you decided to mess with them, things get so much worse." I want to continue to rant about my problems to him but I know he probably won't care.
"What do you hate about yourself?" He's says looking me in the eyes. I trust him. I finally feel that I can trust someone.
"Can I ask you something before I tell you?" I need to make sure I can trust though. This is my overthinking like normal.
"Yeah?"
"Do you actually care? Like if I told you this, would you help me?" I said. He smiled and put his hand over mine.
