Awkward

Text sent. I wait for a reply From my best friend... Instead her brother answers "she's asleep." I reply..."Of course" He send's another "You know what's weird...I like you" I read it. I read it again. *facepalm* I reply-"yeah I know your other sister told me" his reply; "Oh...do you like me?" I throw my phone while my hands fly up in exasperation... OH CRUEL MERCILESS WORLD WHY ME? This is so awkward...I wish [my friend] would wake up and rescue me curses fly out of my mouth as I try to decide how best to say: No. Finally I spill out some randomness-with obvious rejection-and press send. I then toss my phone onto my dog's bed, (which she doesn't use). I try to sleep...(ha!) That was increadibley awkward

Yes. That awkward moment when you realize you hurt someone, or hurt yourself. Well expressed. - Chuck
