Xander : hey , gabe are you okay ?

Xander : i have been calling you the past ten minutes and you didn't answer me , what is going on your mind ?

Gabe : nothing Xander , i am alright , just got lost in my thoughts and plus this trip is for you not me buddy .

Xander : i know but you can talk too , we promised each other and plus you have been in my situation before and no one knew about it and you didn't even go to a therapist buddy .

Gabe : i am fine Xander and you know me if i felt down or anything you are the first one to know cause you know i can't keep anything from you buddy .

Xander :    okay Gabe but i am here for you .

Gabe : me too buddy , so tell me why did you cut yourself the day i found you in the park ? i left you perfectly fine .

Xander : i got a call from my dad telling me how much i am worthless and a shame to the family cause i failed physics and his words got to me so i left the school going to the park where no one go there and i cut myself and i didn't mean to kill myself i was taking my frustration and anger and i didn't realize that i went to far and i swear i was going to answer your phone but i was too tired and didn't have any strength in me .

Gabe : oh god Xander , i really hate your parents you gotta tell your brothers buddy they can help you and if you didn't Ashton will know for sure buddy .

Xander : i know buddy , but i don't want to tell them not now 

Gabe : okay , and now we are here .
