like a bridge over troubled waters

"I'd have to be an idiot to like that piece of trash right there".

i over heard him in the library. i wanted my best friend, anna, to ask him if he was at least interested in me, like a person. but NO. she had to go and ask if he 'yearned for me'. of course he doesn't! i could have answered that.

She came out of the Teenage Body section. "i heard" i immediately said. she shrugged, "sorry.."
"Me too". i said
But then it boiled over me," You know- i didn't ask you to see if he yearned for me! okay? Now it makes me look like a crazy person. You...you might as well have said i wanted to sleep with him!-" Someone cleared their throat, i looked, it was the librarian.
I continued, though in a lower voice, " Look just stop twisting my words. as least i had a chance before, now... i can't even look at him-"

"A chance? ha! you can't do anything without me! At least-"
The librarian coughed again.
"Al least he now knows your name!"
"Yea but at least my name isn't bit-" The librarians coughing now sounded like she was barfing. i took that as a sign i should leave.

i drove home infuriated and stormed into my house. my mom was on the phone when she heard the slam of the front door.
"What's wrong?"
"some guy now think's i'm a sleeze".
"oh, i thought you got a B on your homework or something"
"close enough." i mumbled.
