"Lost Thoughts"
by Annalis Angeles-Veloz
¨Thought I would find you out here,¨ Jordan said as he sat down next to her.
¨Not in the mood, Jordan,¨ she said, her voice muffed by her sleeves. He sighed, sifting a bit closer to her.
¨Hey, are you okay? I know this week has been hard,¨ he whispered as he shifted his gaze away from her and looked to the sun that was setting.
They both were sitting under a willow tree. The uncomfortable silence was getting to be as thick as frozen honey.
¨What would you have done if you were me?¨ whispered a voice small as a mouse.
¨To be honest, I don't know,¨ he whispered with the wind.
