I Just Want To Be Friends Mga Nobela at Kwento

Okay, I wanted her to leave earlier but now that we have started talking, I feel quite completely in her presence. I stand up from my chair and stroll towards her. "No, don't say that. You did not disturb me at all. Infact, I kind of like your presence." I say while scratching my nape. "You know, what I mean. We have a lot in common. So, I guess we can be good friends?" I say more like ask. I don't have much friends, just one best friend from high school and besides that not even one friend in college. You can tell that I am an introvert by nature seeing as I don't have much friends in my life. I don't even to someone first by myself. And making friends is not my virtue, to say the least. Bu

“What do you want?” He stepped back, looking a bit shocked. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to offend. What do you mean, what do I want?” I rubbed my hand down my face in frustration. “I mean, you’ve been so helpful, and I want to do something back for you. So, what do you want?” Russo laughed outright, doubling over. “That’s not how friendship works, Justin. I realize that you’ve been locked in your bedroom alone for most of your life, but friendships are reciprocal.”

“I don’t like the whole idea about becoming friends just for convenience. I’ve never made friends like that and I don’t plan on doing so in the future.” The whole idea of just being friends for convenience had never sat well with me. I had always made friends because I wanted to and because I had to. We weren’t in high school anymore where being friends will the cool kids got you places, but we were adults who knew what we wanted out of our lives and knew how to get there.

'' Well, what is your thing then? ''Why are you talking to me?'' I asked completely and, utterly done. All I wanted was to practise in peace but noooo that was just too much to ask. ''I just wanted to be your friend,'' she said. I rolled my eyes, not like I haven't heard that one before. ''Look Mindy you seem nice and all but, I don't need nor require any more friends. Thanks but no thanks. Now excuse me while I go practice somewhere else,'' I said

Acting like it was some long and important text, I bought some time before answering my neighbor. “Well...us. Spending some time together, casually talking.” I finally responded. “Oh, I didn’t know there was an ‘us’,” Matt’s smirk illuminated his features, but the ice in his eyes warmed my heart. He was acting like we were just two teens, flirting. As all was simple and possible. No matter how much time had passed since we last stood like that on my porch, no matter how our lives continued since then, I felt as if I was special and wanted. I missed this feeling...being important and desired.

“Got it. Lucky guy.” I looked down at my heels. “Yeah.” He nodded, still swaying with me. “Can I still be greedy and ask if we can be friends? I mean… you seem like someone I’d like to know. Even if it’s just as friends.” I hesitated. “Friends?” “Friends,” he confirmed. “No pressure. No expectations. Just… someone to talk to when I’m in town. Or text memes to. Or argue about movies with. You seem like you’d be good at that.”

Just give us a chance to that's all I am asking! 'I don't think I can take that risk!' I said. 'Lets just be friends...', I said, shaking my head. 'That's all I can concede at the moment'. 'Just friends?' he asked shocked. 'But I'd not be satisfied with that. I want us to be much more than just friends like I told you before and I thought you had started feeling the same way too', he said as though puzzled. 'Please reconsider!'

I didn't want to be that girl anymore. “Is that what you think?” She asked and softly and I scoffed. “I don't know what i think but I dont want you to feel like you're obligated to be my friend because you're not. I never want a friendship that can be determined by someone else. I don't want you to see me as a Job…”

We've become friends along the way. "Thanks, I appreciate that. So will you help me?" "If that's what you want." It's not really what I want, but it's what I have to do. "It's what I want."

“I’d do anything to please my friends.” I froze.
