Hello again! Sorry I haven't uploaded in a few days. I've been REALLY busy.
Guy's POV
"Hey, um, what's your name again?" I asked a few minutes later.
"You can call me Jen." Kaylene's mom answered.
"Thanks. So you remember how Kyla answered for Kaylene, and she seemed to get a little upset, and walked out? Is she OK?" I was worried about Kaylene. I had been observing her, and she was, oh, I don't know how to explain it, different. Not in a bad way, but not exactly good, either. She seemed to be full of things she wanted to say, but didn't know how to say them. She seemed to be full of emotions, but unsure how to express them. And the few times I'd looked into her eyes, I saw a hint of sadness. I could kind of know how she felt, because I remember feeling the same way when I was about her age.
"She got upset?" Jen was surprised. "How could you tell? She hardly ever says anything, and spends most of her time in her room."
"I was the same way when I was her age." I said.
"Well, she's fine. If she got upset, she'll mope for a while, then she'll come out." Jen said.
"OK, thanks." I walked away. I got this feeling, though, that Kaylene had a problem.
My POV
I took a few deep breaths, and I felt better. I reminded myself quietly not to let anyone know what I felt. It didn't matter. It was in the past, and the past is gone. Besides, why would anyone care? It was best just to keep quiet. Suddenly someone knocked on my door. "Come in." I said quietly, expecting Mom.
"Hi." Guy entered. "What's up?"
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"You seemed a little upset." Guy said, concerned.
"I'm not upset." I lied.
"Uh huh." I could tell Guy didn't believe me. He lifted my chin with his hand so I had to look at him, and he looked into my eyes. "I was the same way when I was your age. If you ever want to talk, I'm here." Then he left.
I've begun to touch on Kaylene's problem a little more, It should be revealed in the next chapter or two.
