Here to help!
i was on my way home from watching the kids. bratface was giving me grief over this boy she wanted to invite to the hopsock at her school, but it was boys ask girls, and he wasn't asking her. she asked me how to get boys to like her. i almost laughed. fuck if i know.
"be yourself," i said. i really pulled that out of nowhere, but it seemed like the right thing to say.
it was dark by the time i hit the main road towards my neighborhood. with winter crawling closer, the sun was setting quicker, and everything just felt surreal.
i had the radio at a low volume and fell into a lull on the road. my phone ringing about made me shit myself.
brunette's pretty face popped up on the screen. she was smiling in her contact picture. brunette was always smiling, even when i knew she didnt want to.
i let my phone connect to the bluetooth on my radio and anwered. "whats the word, nerd?"
"what are you doing?"
her voice was off. it was bright, but with an edge to it.
"on my way home. why? whats up?"
"just wondering if you wanted to come over."
i had a feeling i shouldnt ask why. there was just something odd in her voice, like she was a blink away from crying.
"yeah, im about 10 minutes out."
"see you soon, loser." her voice cracked, and she hung up immediately.
i said hello to brunette's parents on the way up to her bedroom. it was basically my house now too anyway.
brunette was sitting at her desk with her head in her hands, staring at her computer screen in what seemed like the love child of grief and disgust.
"what's up?"
"come here, look at this."
i moved to her computer and squinted at the screen. it was a picture of rhhys with dogteeth under his arm at the cat cafe he worked at. they were smiling. i already knew what she was thinking.
"theyre not going together." i rolled my eyes.
"they so are," she bit back. "and i dont understand it."
i collapsed on brunette's bed. "i don't know what to tell you, sister."
brunette slammed her laptop shut and spun around in her chair to face me. her bright eyes glittered with tears.
"please dont cry." i whispered.
rhhys wasnt worth crying over. dogteeth especially wasnt worth crying over. and yet, rhhys was letting his life spin out of control over the new girl and none of us knew why. but rhhys was 18 now, he was grown. he could make his own dumb choices and reap the dumb consequences.
i knew there was no use in telling this to brunette. she had a thing for rhhys since 8th grade, when she was still taller than him. that didnt even matter to her. he was smart and sweet and puctual and polite.
"why does he like her?" brunette demanded. "why doesn't he like me anymore?"
it sounded way darker than i meant it to be. "he isnt the same person anymore. that's why."
brunette wiped her eyes hurridely with her sleeve. "its whatever. let him ruin everything good in his life for all i care! i don't care!"
sure you dont.
"hey," i managed calmly. "why dont we go on a walk?"
"yeah." she rose to her feet shakily. "i think i need some air."
