epilogue

He reached out first. 

I won the waiting game. 

But when I found out why it took him that long to speak; I was sad for him. 

I wanted to go to his side and soothe his worries and pains. 

I wanted to be there for him to ease his troubles and worries. 

I felt it so strongly in my heart, that my heart constricted. 

I felt is so strongly that tears threatened to spill from my eyes. 

I cared for him. 

I do. 

And since I know that we would never be. 

Since I know that we could never be

I’ll continue caring in silence. 

Offering friendship, only friendship. 

For it is but friendship that is needed. 

That is welcome.
