Alex’s Bad Day

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear April,

Today has not been the best day of my life. I was walking home from Sparky’s when I ran into Molly, who was walking home from Cowabelle’s. I said hi, and then she said, “Alex, we have to talk.” I wasn’t sure what we had to talk about, but we sat down on a bench and she said, “Alex, I like you.”  And I couldn’t believe it! I was just about to say “I like you too, and I bought you those presents at Christmastime!” when she said, “As a friend. Just a friend.”

And then I didn’t know what to say.

She kept talking. “Roberta told me you were going to give me chocolates on Valentine’s Day, but I really don’t think you should. We’re just friends, and I’d like to keep it that way, at least for now. We’re young, we’ve got years ahead of us…”

And I just nodded.

She stuck out her hoof and I shook it. “Still pals?” she asked.
And I just nodded again.
She smiled and walked off. And me? I just sat there for awhile.

But then, after realizing how cold I was, I headed home. I hid out in my room feeling sad for awhile, until I remembered the box of chocolates that I had hidden in my closet. I opened the box and ate the bonbons. They were delicious.

Anyway, I guess everything will be fine between Molly and me. I wish things had turned out differently, but for now – we’ll just be friends.

I hope things are going well with you.

Your pal,

Alex

    Aw, I’m so sorry Alex! At least you’re still friends with Molly! I know what it’s like when everyone knows your secret crush. You’ll get over it, and in the future, laugh about it!

    hmmm
    I think Sparky will be awful mad at Roberta
    then purr cilla will find out about all of this
    then she will spread all the news but change it some how
    then everyone will think Molly and Alex are going out
    then it will be all embarrassing
    RUN HIDE!!!!!!

    OMG. first, roberta, you need to watch your back, cause sparky was already pretty mad. and you were probably the worst friend EVER 2 molly and alex, and alex might get tramatic stress disorders related to this.

    molly. you need 2 seriously think about ur feelings towards alex. some times, what you think is a crush is actually just friendship, and what u think is friendship is a crush. and you kinda broke alex’s heart.

    alex. u r so brave. it might have been so much worse though. but just practice chivalry to her, and just b the sweet tiger we all know u r, and maybe, one day…
