People should find happiness in the little things, like family. "– Amanda Bynes

There's a saying that when one door closes, another one opens. That is exactly how I felt today. After yesterday's incident, Trevor had come to apologize for taking me off guard.
"I meant what I said, Heidi. I want to get to know you more. " He leaned closer.
"I do too. " I told him.
"I'll text you tonight" We part our ways home. Tessy wouldn't let me have my peace as she kept on teasing and daydreaming about Trevor and I.
"I can't wait for the day he'll ask the most anticipated question, will you be my girl? " She laughed out loud.
"Please don't let mum hear you. " I silenced her. I didn't want mum getting any ideas in her head. Already Tessy wouldn't stop blabbing.
We were about studying when my phone buzzed only to identify the caller to be Gregory. I didn't want to answer but curiosity got the best out off me.
"Hey Greg" I spoke.
"Heidi, I'm sorry for calling at this time but something bad has happened. And I don't think I can handle it alone" I was alarmed.
"What happened? Talk to me" I asked him.
"It's Macy! She was involved in a fatal accident and..... She couldn't make it" I was pained. I went numb for a while until Tessy brought me out of my oblivion.
"What happened earlier? Who was on the phone? " She shook me.
"Greg's only sister was involved in an accident and she didn't survive" I stuttered and quickly I took my jacket and stomped out running to him.
I know what I said about staying away but this was different. I couldn't abandon him, I couldn't abandon my best friend at this point when he needed me the most.
I was sent straight to his room and what I saw broke me apart. He was so broken I had never seen him in that way before.
"It's fine. I'm here now. I understand how you feel right now and I was a witness to the bond you two shared. It really hurts knowing you're going to wake up everyday not seeing or hearing from your sister, friend, mother and everything."I held him.
"I know I can't make your pain go away, but I want you to know I'm here whenever you need a shoulder or an ear to lean on or talk to. I'll always be here, " He put his head on my shoulder.
I didn't want to leave but I had to. After getting him to shower and giving him a hot cup of coffee to calm him down he laid on me fast asleep. I quietly put him to bed and went home. I had a lot of explanation to give to mum and Tessy after I abandoned our study.
I tried in as much as possible to explain giving a detailed explanation as to why I left all of a sudden and returned at this time.
Tessy had wanted to call him but I told her to do that tomorrow cause he was already asleep when I left him.
