i sat on the bench in the locker room
i was being horrible
i was being sensitive
for no reason
nothing had happened to me
maybe a few girls whispered
but why would that matter?
it was a regular occurrence.
and then i felt tears sliding down my face
was i crying? why was i crying?
then the locker room door opened
i quickly rubbed at my eyes
wasn't the game still going on?
but of course, it was abigail
"evalyn?"
"abigail."
"are you crying?"
"no, why would i be crying?"
she moved forward and sat beside me
her thigh almost touched mine and my heart raced
"it looks like you're crying." she spoke in a whisper
i wiped at my eyes again, and she was right, i was crying.
"what are you doing here?" i asked ignoring what she said
"you ran out of the room, so i came to check on you."
before i could reply, she spoke again.
"why are you crying?"
why was i crying? i didn't even know.
"i don't know."
