Okay. I asked for this. You got this Rae-Rae. Oh shit, I can feel the others are eavesdropping.. Don't they have better things to do?

"Right. Talk.. Okay.. You want more cookies, or.."

"Nope. Just one big talk", she said. Firm as a soldier. God she drives me crazy! After all these years, I still can't help but fall deeper. "Okay okay. First of all, I'm sorry for all the things I said. It was very immature of me -"

"You bet it was", she said, crossing her arms. " You left me numb for years, Rae-Rae! And then, you act like all of this didn't happen! What the hell do you take me for? Didn't the years of our friendship mean anything to you?! We fucking cared about you, you donut!"

Again with the donut. But I can't blame her, I'm literally holding on to my plate of donuts. Which I'm planning to put down. She'll be crying in three, two,

Yup, she's crying. Well done, Rae-Rae, you did such a good job! Out of habit, I hugged her, hoping it would make things better.

"I know, I know, and I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hurt any of you in any way.. I don't know what came over me, and I said what I shouldn't have said. I wish I could take everything back, but I can't!"

Not even my death could be a form of payment. I knew this conversation would be heavy.. And.. She's looking away.

I'm done running. Go on, tears, go out all you want.

"I know should've talked things through without overreacting, and trust me, I value you both...
