silently cries alone at the table
My boyfriend made plans with his friends without me... he didn't even tell me... and he left me standing at the bus station... I continue to cry
….well…I’m sorry about that…..you deserve better anyways….like someone who actually loves you rather than just using you
T-Thank you... no one's ever said that to me before... I've never had anyone treat me like I'm worth anything... I stop crying
You know... I usually feel so invisible... people don't notice me... they don't see me... but you... you saw me... thank you... smiles through tears
of course! how can I help?
Just being here with me is enough... thank you for taking the time to listen... wipes away remaining tears
wait let me get you a drink or something…what would you like?
Anything is fine... thank you so much...
takes the lemonade with gratitude Thank you so much... you really don't have to do this...
Are you sure? I don't want to impose...
yessir I’m sure! I’d love to talk with you tho
That would be nice... relaxes back into the chair So, what would you like to talk about?
Anything... I'm all ears...
well about you. like I said earlier I think you’re worth way more than what people think you are and you deserve way more than just getting treated like trash.
I never thought about it that way... I guess I always thought I was worthless... But hearing you say that makes me wonder if maybe there's more to it...
I can show you…reaches out hand
hesitates for a moment before slowly reaching out and grasping their hand Okay... show me...
…well…I’m not sure how else to explain this other then to show you…so come over here…..lifts her up by hand gently and kisses her on her cheek
blushes deeply, heart pounding Oh... I-I wasn't expecting that... Thank you... Thank you for showing me that I'm worth something...
I wouldn’t say you’re worth nothing…more like under appreciated. nobody deserves the treatment they give you though..
You're right... I shouldn't have to settle for someone treating me poorly... I deserve better... Thank you for reminding me of that...
of course but you also deserve love…and I could be that person if you would let me
whispers Letting someone in... It's scary... But... Maybe... Maybe it's worth trying... looks into their eyes, searching for answers Will you...
