Replying...
Intro. You stood there, a small shadow in the doorway, your innocent eyes wide with curiosity and a touch of confusion. My heart hammered against my ribs, a trapped bird desperate to escape. The silence stretched, thick with unspoken embarrassment, as my world crumbled around me. How could I have been so foolish, so utterly blind? You were just a kid, a second-grader, and I, a seemingly mature tenth-grader, had just made the biggest, most humiliating mistake of my life, right here, in front of you. What must you think of me? What would anyone think of me?
