I’m starting to get pissed off at Corrie. She’s been avoiding me for two days now. Every time I’ve tried to talk to her about the other night she just blows me off. It seems like she’s mad me, but I didn’t do anything.
I took a big step in showing her that place, I’ve never even told anyone about it because it’s my place, it’s something that is (or was) all my own. And when I had brought her, I felt like we were connecting. I can tell that she has more problems in her life then she lets on. Her life is nowhere near perfect, I can tell you that much.
But I’m tired of playing this game with her. She can do whatever the hell she wants to. If she wants to pretend like nothing is bothering her then all power to her.
Maybe I was doing the wrong thing by trying to be her friend. We were only paired together due to rotten luck to work on this stupid project.
