I got a job two weeks ago, and pathetically enough tomorrow is my last week. It’s an answering service job, and if you’re unsure of what that is or what an answering service does, it’s basically after hour phone calls. For example, if you call a doctor’s office or cable company and their offices are closed, you get us, and we take your messages. It’s pretty easy, but my job is second shift, and full time. Since I’m a full time student already, it was way too much for me to handle. I basically go to school everyday, and then work everyday. I don’t have a day off to just breathe, and it was just too stressful.
Anyways, I was at work today. I took pictures because there is literally nothing to do. I love this job, but hopefully it gets passed onto my friend *crosses fingers*
In elementary school I had a best friend named Skyler. He sadly had to move away from me in sixth grade, and we somehow parted ways and drifted. I never stopped missing him, and to my surprise, he never stopped missing me either. We recently reconnected, and I came open about some things that I’ve been hiding from people for awhile.
We had the most emotional conversation ever. God, I love him.
I basically told him about the mental/emotional/slightly physical abuse that I’ve endured through my life. Especially since I live the emotional abuse daily, and the physical abuse happened today. (I’ll skip that part of our conversation for personal purposes).
Him: Why are you finally telling me all of this now? I mean, I’m just curious is all. I wish I had known…this is…kinda really heavy Like hard to hear
Me: I know I guess I’m just tired of hiding it. I never wanted to tell people because I was ashamed that this is/was my life. But I can’t really handle it anymore
Him: You shouldn’t have to hide yourself. God knows your a looooot stronger than most people though. And even tho ur finally starting to talk now, it actually makes you more courageous
Me: The only thing keeping me strong is the thought of having a somewhat normal/tolerable in the future.
Him: Well if u stay here you will always have me I’m sorry Keisha. I’m sorry I was gone for so long
Me: And you will always have me. I’m sorry too I never stopped thinking of you as my best friend
Him: Truthfully I wasn’t going to tell u cuz…well it sounds weird and pathetic and maybe obsessive but when. Got home last night I ended up crying biz I realized something that has been rather unclear to me. I have been living without my best friend for ten years. And nobody else ever really came close
Me: I’m crying right now actually, because I’ve missed you a lot too. I would always tell people even in high school that you’re my best friend I always found myself reliving our childhood memories because we didn’t have current ones until recently. I’m glad we’re back together again. I really really am glad. Everything feels right again.
Him: Can we do each other a favor…since now we r old enough to manage it…and since I have the money at least to take care of gas too lol…can we not leave this time
Me: I’ll never leave again. I promise Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye
*crosses fingers*
