sometimes on gym days, she wore tights.
sometimes she wore tights, and he noticed how thin her legs were.
sometimes after he noticed her thin legs, he would also notice the gap between her thighs.
and he had to swallow so sharply that it hurt
just so he wouldn't run to her and say something.
because if he said something, he wouldn't be able to stop saying something.
and he would admit that sometimes he stayed awake until 2 a.m.
thinking of her,
and feeling sick with worry
about that thigh gap
that was slowly growing bigger.
