to protect you,
Lyric finally chimes in.
Money stuff
is always hard
to talk aboutespecially
when pride is involved.
Well, I didn’t ask them
to protect me
from that.
I pout.
Can I be honest with you?
Lyric starts.
My whole body goes taut
like a rubber band being stretched
to its limit
because the way she says this
I can tell it’s going
to be
hard to digest.
I guess.
I understand you’re hurt.
But you did lie to them.
Lyric begins.
They get to have feelings too.
But just because they are mad
and won’t help fund your gap year
doesn’t mean you have to give up.
I mean, where’s your sense of hustleor pride?
This is your dream, your life, right?
I’m sure you can find a way to make it happen
