pretext

Boy 1: Slow down. You don't have to rush.

Boy 2: I really have to leave. Move. I do not want anyone to notice.

Boy 1: Look, they don't know and they don't care. Here, let's share my umbrella.

Boy 2: I will go ahead. Do not call or text. Mom's checking my phone.

Boy 1: Wait.

Boy 2: What?

Boy 1: Please, for once, stop running away from things that can't harm or kill you.

Boy 2: (...)

Boy 1: Fine. That's what you're good at anyway. Running. Hiding.

Boy 2: I am not running away. I am keeping you safe. Both of us safe.

Boy 1: I didn't ask you to do that. Know what, I'd rather be with someone who's willing to take risks for me. Someone who can enjoy the rain with me. Go. Goodbye.

    1. i've learned that if there's no one willing to enjoy the rain with me, i'd rather enjoy it alone under my umbrella. :)
