It's been 2 months since Amane asked me that question... 'do you really only like me as a friend?'.
Every time I try and talk to Amane about it he ether makes up an excuse to leave or just avoids the question all together. How am I ever meant to tell him how I feel if he never lets me? I began to put my hair up into a pony tail as I reflected on all my different thoughts.
"Amane..."
"I wish he would just talk to me" I whispered to myself
"I don't normally see you with your hair up, what's wrong?" It was my best friend Aoi
"It's Amane..." I sighed
"Yuki Amane? What happened?" Aoi questioned
"Well you know how I've had the biggest crush on him since we were 5, right?" Aoi had a smirk on her face once I said that
"You mean in love with but carry on"
"So a few months ago Amane asked me if I liked him as more then a friend but at the time I didn't know if he was serious or not so I didn't say anything and now every time I try to talk to him about it he avoids what I say completely." I slid down into the floor
"Have you told him how you feel about him though?" Aoi looked at me sincerely
"I... I guess not."
"Ughhhh!" I put my face in my hands as I brought my legs up to my chest.
"I have to get home in time for dinner, but I'll call you later." Aoi waved goodbye to me as she walked out the door.
"I hate having to lie to her..." I sat there looking up at the ceiling.
A little while later I ended up going to the park near my house. While I was there this girl with brown and red curly hair came up to me and sat down beside me. She was wearing a black dress with a corset on top of it and had black lace up boots on.
"Why is it that people always keep things to themselves?" The girl asked me.
When she saw that I was hesitant to answer, she spoke instead, "Evergreen, but you can call me Ever."
"Nene"
"Nice to meet you Nene. Now that the introduction is out of the way, why do you you that is?"
"I'm sorry?" I was confused on what she was asking
"Why do you think people always distance themselves from others?" She asked me again
I answered, "Well I don't know, maybe because it's easier to put on a front and be the perfect person instead of being a defect in someone else's eyes. Pretending is easier because when everyone thinks your fine nobody truly cares."
She smiled.
"If to be truthful is to be cruel, then lying must certainly be an act of kindness. And so, kindness is a lie." After she said that, she just walked off.
"Kindness... is a lie?" I watched as she waved goodbye, not spearing a second glance in my direction.
