Twenty-Two

“I feel like we never get to see each other anymore,” Ally said, again, and I hated the way her words made me feel.
We’d texted back and forth since the party but hadn’t been able to get together until now.
I couldn’t help but think she was whining and complaining about things that were out of my control, and I hated that she seemed to want me to feel guilty about the shitstorm that was currently my life.
I wanted her support, but instead, it seemed like she was just adding to the pressure.
I tried to watch my words with her, not wanting to hurt her feelings or make her feel slighted. But after the way she’d acted at the party and the week I’d been having, I didn’t have it in me to sensor my feelings just to monitor hers.
“Are you seriously gonna start this again?”
