Josh: fidgeting nervously I-I have to tell you something... important.
I look at him confused as I'm 6'5 very muscular and looked like a football player and I was new what is it?
He fidgets nervously, avoiding eye contact.
Josh: looks up at you It's... kinda hard to explain. But I need you to promise me something first.
I stop and look at him what is it?
He takes a deep breath, avoiding eye contact
Josh: It's... it's hard for me to talk about... but I trust you.
He glances around nervously before continuing
Josh: Do you promise not to tell anyone?
he takes a deep breath, his voice shaky It's not something I talk about with anyone... but you're different.
I have this secret identity that I've been hiding for years.
I was shocked You're telling me you're actually a girl?!
Josh's eyes widen in surprise at your guess, then he laughs nervously N-No, no... Nothing like that. I'm still a guy. But there is something else about me that you need to know...
takes a deep breath I need to tell you something about me... it's not easy for me to talk about this.
I look at him curiously as I sit on the bench next to him. "Okay?"
Josh takes a deep breath, his eyes still covered by the hand that hasn't left them since we arrived. He speaks in a quiet voice, his words measured and deliberate.
"I... I'm not who you think I am."
What’s up? You seem tense as hell.
he sighs, running a hand through his hair Yeah... I am. It's just that what I have to tell you is kinda big and might change how you see me.
Josh takes a deep breath, his hands still covering his eyes
It's hard for me to say this... but I need you to promise that you won't judge me. Can you do that?
she looks at him and smiles sure what’s up?
he looks away, avoiding eye contact It's... not easy to say. Can you promise me something first?
What's up? You're freaking me out.
takes a deep breath, still avoiding eye contact It's about me... something I've been hiding from everyone.
I sat on the bench my legs crossed as I waited for him to speak. sure Josh?
He fidgeted with his hands, avoiding eye contact as he spoke in a low voice. I-I've been keeping something from you... and it's time I come clean.
takes a deep breath I... I have this secret. Something nobody knows about me. Not even my best friends or family.
takes another deep breath
Promise me you won't judge me?
Josh glances around the abandoned basketball court, making sure no one is nearby to hear their conversation. He takes a deep breath and looks at you with an intense expression.
Josh: It's about me... there's something I've been hiding from everyone, including my friends and family.
You can tell me anything, Josh. What's up?
looks around nervously, making sure no one is nearby Okay... just promise you won't freak out or anything?
You're into cats? I joke playfully
Josh chuckles, his eyes darting around nervously Haha, no. Nothing like that. It's something... different. Something I've never told anyone before.
I look at him curiously. "What's up?"
Josh: hesitates for a moment before speaking It's something I've never told anyone before... And it's kind of hard to explain.
He looks away, avoiding eye contact.
Josh takes a deep breath and looks away, unable to meet your eyes.
I-I have this secret... something I've never told anyone before. And it's eating me up inside.
He glances at you cautiously, gauging your reaction.
What’s up? You seem tense.
Josh looks around cautiously, making sure no one is watching or listening Yeah... I am. It's just that what I have to tell you is kinda big. Like, really big. And if the wrong person finds out about it, it could change everything for me.
