Chapter 5 - More than a Friend?

Zach

After I heard Sam said those words to Clarence I knew at that moment that it hit him hard. Just by looking at his eyes I can clearly see his expression is kinda hurt. We've been friends since elementary so I can read him like a book but he doesn't have to know that. I never once argued nor shouted at him because I knew his been faking that his alright even though deep down his already broken. That's why I'm so worried and sad for him because he couldn't even express his true self to anyone. He would always hid in the corner crying with no one in his side. He had this habit for as long as I can remember. Which is why when Sam suddenly shouted at him I knew he was hurt but still kept on a calm face. I was so angry because Sam didn't even considered his feelings.

Clarence: Hey stop I'm fine

Then he held my arm but his hand is trembling.

"Oh okay" but are you sure you're okay? Because your grip is getting stronger though.

Clarence: Right I'm sorry

Zach: It's fine you can hold me

Clarence: Really? I can do that?

Zach: Yeah I don't mind

After hearing that he stared at my eyes for a few seconds then held my hand again. But without the shaking. I felt relived but I started noticing that Emily was staring at us. And when I looked at her she didn't even tried to hide it. So she kept on looking at us like she just witnessed a scene from a book or so
