Not going to push

“Um..is that a hard question?” I smiled..make the mood lighter..right?

Parker chuckles.”Well, no..its just..well..I-”

The bell rang and to me, he looked so relieved, like the biggest weight just got lifted off its shoulders.

Why is this so secretive, maybe its something personal, i don’t know, maybe somebody, or his family, or maybe someone he likes…

No, bottom line is that Im not going to push this, why should I, none of my business

Just as class started, Parker passed me a note. I slowly took it and read it from underneathe my desk.

sorry, i’ll tell you later, okay?

I feel like he was forcing himself to tell me, like he was going to help me in someway

So I sribbled back on the paper

it’s fine, and you don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to, kay?

I passed the note along and saw Parker’s eyes scanning my note and he slightly smiled.

And then he mouthed to me I want to
