The other day I was at Spirit Halloween with Sage and Jasmine. We were in the cosmetic section when we ran into Tyler and Mary. I wasn't sure of what I was seeing so I pinched myself. There they were, staring right at us. I guess I can't complain because we were staring at them too. Regardless, the adrenaline was enough to send my mind into a spiral.

Tyler and I did our presentation with no problem, but it wasn't enough to bring back whatever friendship we had. I told Kyle about it and he said he was ok with it but I could tell he wasn't. I mean, it was just a stupid assignment, right? But then I saw Tyler the other day. Spiral.

He looked really cute wearing an oversized denim jacket with race car patches all over the back, white t-shirt with an image of Frank Sinatra on it, black baggy jeans, and black converse with Tyler the Creator type beat flowers. He was holding a Harry Potter costume in one hand and black face paint in the other. Since I was up close to him I was finally able to look into his sunshine eyes. They glistened just like old times.

I snuck a few glances at Mary, but not as much as I did to Tyler. Mary was wearing a dark brown baby tee, dark green corduroy bell bottoms, black docs, black leather jacket, and a black long strap leather purse. She also had on a cute brown newsboy cap on. She wasn't holding a costume but she was holding a Starbucks drink. Once again she left me feeling underdressed.

When I told all of this to Darry he was confused as to why any of it was important, but I didn't let it invalidate my feelings. He has no idea on what it's like to get easily attached to people. I had my phone taken away the same night he took away my hang out rights. Seeing Tyler and Mary made me feel as if I was missing out on something. Although both punishments were lifted 3 days ago, I still have a lot to catch up on.

I wanted to cry when I saw Tyler. Again, I tried explaining it to Darry and when he asked why I just couldn't give him a reason. Does Tyler really mean that much to me? I think it's because he's someone so unattainable. I was getting used to things getting better and going my way. So why can't Tyler like me?

I was definitely missing out on Mary's Insta posts. I mean, her page was like a museum. Although she had deleted a few photos, the new ones were just as cool.

This was on her story yesterday. The next post on her story was an all black photo with the words "2018 halloween costume:-,)". My 2018 Halloween costume was a ballerina. It was the first year that I had a Halloween costume. I always wanted to be a ballerina.
