To Cole
I was a coward. I liked you for a full year and was too terrified to say anything. Looking back, it was pretty obvious. We always talked to each other, and I even convinced the teacher to let us sit next to one another. I used to get irritated when it took you months to respond to my emails. Now you don’t reply at all. Now I know the feeling was mutual between us back then. I didn’t say anything, so I missed my chance. I know you’ve moved on, but I haven’t. Please just say something? Write back.
