im currently sitting in the kitchen, catching up with Sandra, i like how she shares everything with me, it makes me feel satisfied and happy.
i love you, Sandra
Youre my main course of happiness, Sandra.
Im almost feeling alive again, until Sandras mum calls her to pick her up.
"Iam sorry Alex i have to go, are you okay with it?" Sandra asks
"_Yes of course Sandra dont worry about it! ill see you tomorrow in school anyway" i reply
"_take care of yourself Alex, i love you, BYE"
i love you more, Sandra. I really love you.
she leaves.
Sandras gone.
Alone again.
Alone again.
Alone again.
youre alone, again.
Dad walks in the kitchen, staring at me.
it still shocks him how much the divorce affected me.
"_So, any plans for today?
_not really
_mhm, that's interesting"
i dont reply.
i stare off into the distance dreamily and sigh.
"you can come with me to work, and i can introduce you to all my friends there" dad says in a 'duh' short of way.
introduce me to your friends or introduce me to your new girlfriend dad??
as soon as i look back at him, my phone buzzes

from instagram: @yourboiiadam requested to follow you
@yourboiiadam would like to send you a message. click here for me
i click on the notification button and boom
"Adam: Yooo alex, my friend and i are going to the mall at 5, you wanna join us?? hes single haha:)"
"_is that your BOYFRIEND?" he says while running a hand through his hair frustratedly.
"_no dad, i dont do relationships. Stop asking me the same question over and over. You aint getting nothing.
_well, maybe you should try hanging out with him, he seems like a nice guy
_you dont even know him
_i want to, tho."
i open my phone to text Adam back
"Alex: cant, im busy" i stare into that message a little bit, then i hit send.
hes typing.
"Adam: shut up Alex, you are coming with us
Alex: I said i cant Adam. Im seriously busy.
Adam: Youre not busy Alex. I texted Sandra and she said youre free for today. Get dressed and i will pick you up at 4
Alex:Fine.
Adam: Finneee:))"
Dad opens his mouth to say something, but stops as he glances over the door. I tell him that i need to catch up with some friends, he allows me to go. I grab my stuff from the kitchen and go back to my room to get dressed.

4:40 pm
its almost 5, i just got a text message from Adam saying that hes gonna be here anytime soon and i spend the couple minutes catching up with my dad. I dont like him much, but at the end of the day, i got to accept him at least.
I glance over to see, and theres Adam standing at the front door looking anxious and nervous as fuck.
"the doors open ma boi" Dad shouts
stop making this awkward dad.
Adam walks in, holding a red flower in his left hand.
Oh no, you did not.
Dad slowly turns around and narrows his eyes at Adam.
here they are, making eye contact.
I notice Adams nervous look. i tell my dad that were late, grabs adam hand and hug dad a goodbye.
Ive never seen adam this nervous before, he always looks so merry and excited
Adam hands me the flower.
"_for you, my very best friend" Adam says
"_soo wheres your friend Adam?
_yeah well, i lied about that so i can get to take you out alone" he says as he rolls his eyes, and grabs his confidence back in
"_you fucker
_you dont hate me that much Alex, do you?
_i hate everyone, and mainly you
_yeah whatever so theres a restaurant down there and he serves really delicious food and-
_alright lets go im literally starving and haven't ate since days"
oh fuck. i think i've accidentally said too much.
awkward.
i look at him. he looks at me
you look good Adam, i wanna tell him but i cant.
why not tho?

"_Adam, this is amazing" i say with a smile on my face
"_Whats amazing? the food or the date?
_Shut up you whore
_Fine, Fine
_Yeah fine
_Youre dad seems like a great person"
hes not a great person Adam, just because he seems like a great person doesn't mean he is one
"_hes okay i guess" I say while forcing a smile on my face
_Its okay, i feel you
_You dont Adam, you're literally the most joyful person ive ever seen, youre always happy and on top of the world, trust me you dont feel me
_i do actually, just because i can hide it very well, doesn't mean it doesn't hurts Alex
_what do you mean? Its like you ever-
_my dad passed away when i was 2 years old Alex, and my mum isnt much of a great person, so you trust me, i feel you and-" i cut him off by hugging him. He smiles as he glance a tear.
"_i like you, Alex
_why?
_because you are you.
_well its gonna take me more than that to like you, Adam
_girl youve got issues. Like serious issues, i like that, now i see why you dont let people in your life that easily, but guess i have a chance since you let me take you out on a date
_its not a date you dumbass, you lied to me and-
_call it whatever what you, i will call it a date"
fine Adam, it was a date.
he gives me a small smile and pats my arm. We pay and leave the restaurant.
he hugs me, again
he hugs me
the butterflies in my stomach are back again
i tell him a good bye
he looks disappointed that i didnt ask him to take me back home, but he smiles anyway as he waves at me
im gonna fall in love with you, Adam
"_good bye girlfriend" adam confirms
"_call me that one more time and im gonna fucking murder you, you hear me you fucker?"
he smiles.
i smile.
the butterflies smile.
Im gonna fall in love with you, Adam. But im not sure youre gonna be able to fall in love with me.
