With tears in my eyes, I ran to the room and lay down on the bed. For the next day, I did not leave the
room until Monday. At school, I saw him looking at me, but I avoided him and his eyes. When the bell
rang for a break, I packed up and went to leave the room, but someone stopped me. It was him. I kept
looking at my shoes all the time, when suddenly I looked at him. He gave me a sad smile that I did not
reciprocate. After some time, I managed to say what was bothering me. He only hugged me tightly and
asked me - what will you do with it? I told him that we would still be friends and that nobody would
change that. I introduced him to my friends and we all got along well and hoped that this atmosphere
would be forever.
