Why Did I Live This Day?

It was a dream but I remember it so vividly, the day entirely, the bike ride there, going around back, sitting on the roof with them listening to her talk to him but only paying attention to her, the feeling of being empty next to her because we aren't alone.
I remember her falling threw the window into the room because he didn't help her, walking down those stairs and having his dog walk over to me howling and his sister moving it away.
I even remember the walk home, walking behind them because I had a bike, she found a flower and gave him one of the buds, she gave me one too, he dropped his when she forgot about it, I kept mine, when she dropped her flower he kept walking, I picked it up and had to give it to him because I couldn't give it to her.
Most of all I remember the look of pain in her eyes the entire time, the way she wouldn't talk about her feelings, the way she hated how he kept his room, she hated the way he treated her but would say it, the way she didn't love him.
