16. but that’s ok


the past two days have been all about A: her problems, tears, hopes, dreams and pains.
and that’s ok.
i can understand that.

she wakes me up at two in the morning with her phonecall, but doesn’t listen to what i have to say. she’s angry, she’s upset, but that’s ok. i let that go, even though i end up having only 3 hours of sleep in the end. because she’s hurting.

she makes me meet up with her the next day, on my christmas ( orthodox christian’s christmas is on the seventh of january. don’t asky me why), and has me stay with her the whole day, but doesn’t want to hear my reassurances.
but that’s ok, i understand.

she has me call up her ex, discuss it all with him, try to instill a sense of guilt in him ( for what? for him wanting to be merely friends now that, having dumped him, she wants him back? ) but that’s ok, because she’s my friend.

and i could go on, but i won’t. she hasn’t been the best character in the past two days. but that’s ok. after all, we all have those moments, don’t we?  

some of us just deal better with them, rely on others less and aren’t scared of new beginnings.

all she needs is just a little practice…

  1. It seems that you have acquitted yourself really well here, and have been a model friend and provided an example to us all. I really admire you and your commitment to providing support without limit or question. You are a rare and very special person.

  2. i guess some of us haven’t forgotten how to be real friends, after all ;)

  3. hehe :) oh i remember that episode. i think it’s the sort of thing you don’t forget – the first time someone calls you up in the middle in the night just to have you tell them it’ll be alright. that’s what friends are for. ((:
