He came to talk to me later that day.
“Hey whats up?”he said quietly.
“Nothing much.” I said.
He leaned against the wall saying nothing.
“Did you want to ask me something.” I said confused.
“Oh yeah sorry,” he said as if he was just deep in thought.
“I just wanted to say that I really do think that your project should have won.”He said again in a quite voice.
I think he was quite because its hard for him to show those kind of feelings. That moment was truely a break through for him.
I was still shocked that he thought I actually cared if I got first place. Even if he got a better score I would still love him the same.
“What are you talking about.” I said,”Your project was great.”
“Its that yours was better because you did it yourself.’’ he said.
Wow, I though. I couldn’t believe he was still with this. He made such a big deal about something so insignificant.
