She blinks her watery eyes. I lower my eyes. Neither of us looked at each other for a while.
"I feel rotten about the whole thing which is why I'm telling you all of this. I care for you too but not in that special way you desire" I continue. I closed my eyes. She sniffs her nose.
"When I first arrive to High School I didn't know anybody so you can understand my awe when I had three beautiful girls befriend me" I whispered. Mila Rose listens.
"I couldn't believe you would be my friend but you were. I guess that's why I value your friendship. You were my first friend" I spoke. No sound. I turned to a red eye Mila Rose. She curled up on her side of the bed.
"Look Mila I know you may feel like there aren't many good guys out there but there are. You got to be patient" I advise. She sniffs and listens.
"There aren't any. I know I look" She whispered defeated. Right away a name popped up.
"I happen to know one" I revealed.
"Who?" She asked.
"Pesche"I answered quickly. She looks startle. Her runny mascara kept creating streaks on her cheeks. I reached out to touch her. She lowers her green eyes.
"Pesche?"She repeats. I only sigh as a reply.
"He's got blonde hair and he's really skinny in fact he's in my swim team" I jogged her memory. Her face looked lost.
"You have him for your sixth period" I continue to share. She still looked lost.
"Uh he sits behind you" I added. Her face lit up.
"Oh the joker" She snapped to him at last.
"Yeah he's really playful" I agreed. She blinks her eyes at last.
"He likes me?" She repeats.
"Yeah"I answered. Little by little she lit up.
"How do you know?" She asked smiling.
"Because he told me''I shared. She shakes her head.
"He's never done anything to show it" She speculates.
"Well neither have you in respects to me" I replied. Mila Rose nods.
"I can hang around your class and introduce ya formally" I offered.
"No I think I got it" She answered at last. I smiled at her. She fixed her eyes.
"I feel so bad" She mutters. I laugh. Retsu's high heels click behind me.
"Harribel what did I tell you?" She asked in a feign voice. I glance at her. She wasn't mad at me but rather please. I only gulp.
"I was uh…."I lied.
"He was helping me lift my spirits" Mila Rose covered.
"You should leave her be otherwise she'll catch what you have''Retsu warned. I stop smiling.
"What do I have?" I asked genuinely shock. She smiles at me.
"A serious case of confabulation" She teased. I looked at Mila.
''What's that?" I asked.
"Nothing she'll die from I assure you" She laughs. I gulp as my reply. I didn't like the sound of it. I decided to go home and look it up. I made my way to my bed.
