        Friday. The final day of Michael and my work week. It was the best day since we got paid and went on to have the rest of the weekend off. Also, Michael was always in a better mood on Fidays. I sat at my desk, tapping at it lightly. I really didn't want to do the work I still had left to do. I was just ready for the weekend to come.Michael tapped on his desk absentmindedly and stared at his computer screen.

        "I didn't want this job" He mentioned quietly. My head shot up to look at him

        "What?" I asked, eyeing his baby blue botton down shirt.

        "This job, I don't want it. I never did want it, but it was the only one I would have really been able to get, I mean look at me. No one wants to hire a creepy highschool drop out. I'm useless to anyone accept family. And my uncle owns this place" He babbled, making my eart break. How could he think he was useless? No one was useless.

        "Michael, that's not true" I said quietly. Michael scoffed harshly.

        "Bull shit! It is true! My mother doesn't even want me! She kicked me out at 16, Cj! This is all bullshit! All of it! I hate it!" He shouted, rising from his desk. I shrunk back a bit

        "Michael it isn't bullshit. I don't think you're useless. You always make my day better!" Michael rolled his eyes and started toward the door

        "I'm going home." He stated before leaving quickly. I was left wondering what I could do to make it better.

Michael's POV

        I rushed to my car, tears coating my cheaks you're so weak I said to myself. I hated it. I hated it when I cried or broke like that. I was such a pussy. I was so dumb. I was so useless. I drove home quickly and wrecklessly, throwing myself into the bathroom. I pulled out my razor and removed a blade. You deserve this
