            EYES LOWER TO THE GROUND; how long had it been since he had been staying there? Forever, no doubt. Even when she got cold and distant, when had been especially CRUEL to him, by any means to further PUSH her away and out of her life. He was still standing here. He was always here ; it was not in his nature to give up on someone. Their strained friendship caused things to become complicated and the two stopped speaking to each other as a result. But when the time finally came, she responded to his attempt of regaining her trust, it tugged at his heart strings. What was she saying?  Did she not know him at all?

                       (  no… don’t do this… don’t do this to me   )

          “Paige, I don’t know what’s been happening, what’s gotten into you, or what’s wrong, but… I’m here for you. I’ll always be. I’m not like everybody else. I’m not going to get tired or bored of you and I know it’s been a while since we’ve spoken but that’s because I wanted to give you some space.”      Tentatively, he reached out to gently place a hand on her shoulder,      “If you don’t want to talk about it, that’s fine. Just know that I still think of you as my friend and I’m not gonna give up on you.”
