I’m not thinking about him now.â€? “Yes you are, because how do you know the him you weren’t thinking of?â€? silence.
2nd period – psychologically speaking, my brain is broken up into two parts, the part that I can’t get to stop thinking about you and me and the little bit you left that some call sanity.

4th period – lunch
