hold the phone to my chest. I like you too. “I love you, Baby Doll.” It comes out as a whisper. It’s true. It’s so fucking true. But saying it out loud… Even alone. Saying it out loud is the scariest thing I’ve done. Because when I tell her. When I tell Kendra that she has my whole damn heart… If she doesn’t feel the same way… If she doesn’t love me back… I don’t think I can recover from that. So I’ll wait. I’ll wait until she’s ready. I’ll wait as long as it fucking takes. And until then, I’ll take whatever she’s willing to give me. Me: Good.
