"I'm sorry I'm being all selfish like this..." I keep my head down, looking at my feet on the grass. At least there is still color here, and nothing has wilted yet.
"It's alright... I mean, there's no one left in the dorm right?" I nod back. "Of course you'd be lonely." He pats my head, as usual. I can feel the hurt in my chest, and my eyes start to heat up.
"True... I am pretty lonely here because there is no one around. But... When you're not around... When I can't see you... I feel twice, no, ten times more lonely.." he then gently stroked my hair. He smiles with an indiscernible expression of exasperation and sadness.
