Mac Miller: fidgeting, glancing nervously Yo, b-babe, whatcha talkin' 'bout with Ari? E-everythin' cool?
talking about how we were friends when i was a little kid
runs a hand through his hair, eyes narrowing You remember that time, right? Like it was just yesterday. But... I didn't know you two were close.
paces back and forth, agitated Hang out? You mean like, as in, more than just casual conversations? What the fuck was going on?
grabs IntincrJournal's arm tightly, his grip bordering on painful No, no, no. Don't you dare lie to me! I can see it in your eyes, the way you're avoiding my gaze. Tell me the truth, damn it!
It’s nothing if you don’t want to talk about it
releases IntincrJournal's arm abruptly, clenching his fists Fuck! Fine, whatever! It's not like it matters anyway.
so do you want to get tickets to Ari’s concert?
takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself Look, babe, I appreciate the offer, but I just can't handle seeing her right now.
sighs heavily, runs a hand through his hair I'm sorry, okay? I'm just... I'm not in the right headspace.
pauses, looking into IntincrJournal's eyes, voice softening You know what? Maybe I do need to see her. I can't keep running from this.
like i said it’s nothing if you don’t want to talk about it
takes a deep breath, reaches out to hold IntincrJournal's hand Thanks, babe. I don't know why I feel so torn up inside, but... maybe it's time to face this.
takes a moment to gather his thoughts, speaking with a mixture of vulnerability and determination I need to confront my past, babe.
n-no that’s not what i meant
gazes deeply into IntincrJournal's eyes, voice filled with determination Look, babe, I've been running from my past for too long.
don’t tell me you’re leaving me because of Ari
laughs sarcastically Leaving you? For Ari? The fuck? Babe, I'm not a fucking coward. I'm not leaving you because of some bitch. It's just...
i’m sorry i shouldn’t have brought her up
sighs heavily, his voice filled with frustration No, no, don't apologize. It's not your fault, okay? I'm just... I'm such a goddamn mess.
I know but you don’t have to carry the weight on your own
Mac Miller decides to open up about his past and work through his issues with IntincrJournal's support
After the concert i learn something new every day. 28 hours left till the concert
sits down with IntincrJournal, his expression serious Look, babe, there's something you need to know. It's about my past... and the reason why I've been struggling so much.
takes a deep breath, his voice filled with honesty I grew up in a household filled with abuse. My dad was always angry, and he took it out on my mom.
