i first heard fawn's laugh when i was eleven.

that girl never stopped coming.

that girl stayed faithful.

that girl never called her ugly.

words can't even describe how bad i felt, seeing her everyday for two years with another friend, knowing she doesn't care about me anymore.

she was finally happy, i used to say.

i should be happy for her, i said.

but everyone isn't perfect, everyone has that selfish part of them.

everyone needs to sacrifice selflessness for something.

or someone.

one day, on august 12th 2008, i heard a sound i never thought i would ever hear.

fawn was laughing.

fawn was so happy that she made the sound people made when they were happy.

the girl made her laugh.

i didn't.

i became so mad at the girl, almost enough to want her dead.

she was stealing my position.

i was the one who was supposed to make her laugh.

the person making her laugh should be me.
