i love you too

a-ö order

Simon was trying to calm his breathing down. At that moment nothing made any sense to him. All he knew was that Wilhelm had lied to him. Well not technically lied but kept the truth and it sure felt like lying. 'How long had he known?' he thought.

Simon grabbed his bag and took his phone out. He was going to confront Wilhelm for not telling him who posted the video. 'They were both in it so they should both know, right.' He was planning to scroll down to Wilhelms phone number, but luckily the contacts were in a-ö order and a certain name made him stop. Ayub. If he called Wille, they might fight and things were definitely going to get even more complicated than they already were, but, if he called Ayub, he could come and take him home, no fights, and no complications. Simon felt his breath stabilize and he pressed on his best friends name.

Ayub was going to get there in maybe 15 minutes so Simon put his phone to his backpocket. Then he decided to put the purple hoodie on. To be fair there was cold, but the decision might have had more to do with Wilhelm than that. That stupid, so very comfortable but stupid hoodie.

13 minutes later Ayub arrived with his motorcycle and after saying goodbye to Sara and Felice, who seemed very concerned about him, and seeing one more glance of the blue hoodie guy, which at that moment was not even close to being important, Simon got home. Ayub probably noticed something a little off with him but didn't bring it up.

When Simon got inside his mom was watching some spanish TV-show. "What are you doing home so early?" asked his mom when he sat down on the couch. "Wasn't feeling it," Simon said. After that they just sat in the quiet watching some way too dramatic actors play constant plot-twists. Althought Simon was not following the show at all, he could not get ahead of his thoughts. Exactly a year ago he was hanging out playing video games with Ayub and Rosh. This year he was at home watching a soap opera with his mom after leaving a party because he found out the crown prince had known who leaked their sextape and had not told him. Things really had changed.

Simon looked at his phone and it said the clock was 23:52. He decided to go outside and watch fireworks for the rest of the year. The best fireworks are always seen around midnight. There he was, sitting alone watching other peoples fireworks until the year changed.
