Friday Night

This past Friday night I went to the Lafayette Vs. Eureka football game with a friend who goes to Lafayette. I have a friend at Lafayette who I haven’t seen or talked too in a long time due to some circumstances. I went to the game hoping to talk to him. When I finally found him in the crowded stands I made eye contact with him for a brief moment, after that second passed he turned his back on me which surprised me. So later that evening when I walked past him I said hi and expected him to stop and chat. Nope, he gave me a simple nod of the head with a silent message of “I don’t have time for you, I have better things to do” I stood there stunned, registering what just happened. We were best friends, and..yes we were more than that just a few months ago. “Nothing will change, I will always be here for you,” He had told me not too long ago. Yet here we are. Friday night I went home and cried for hours trying to realize what I did wrong. I had to wake up at 5:00 the next morning to go out of town for soccer again and the 5-hour car ride just allowed me to listen to sad music and think about my sad life. depressing….I know. I’m still confused but I’m beginning to realize that I have more to life than him. I have friends and family and I know that eventually, we will probably go our separate ways. But there will always be a special place in my heart for him.
