Eventually, she seemed to be listening to every word I had to say.
My words did not reflect my feelings whatsoever, I was merely reciting the best method to calm her down. Though, it was nearly impossible to notice that there was a distinct distance in my words. After a little while, I decided that I'd ask her for more details on why she was curled up in a ball before, that should've been my final step before I decided to leave.
"Hey, why were you sad before?"
"All of my friends thought it was funny to ditch me."
"You think they were just joking? Maybe they came back to look for you after."
"No, I know they don't like me, but I hang around them anyways."
"I see now."
"What were you doing here?"
"I was just bored, I don't have much to do on the weekends."
"Do you hang out with your friends?"
"I guess not."
