The next day I saw Noah in English and he looked like he was about to cry.
"Hey what's wrong?" I asked trying to comfort him. He looked into my eyes and I looked really deep into his, trying to see what was wrong.
"Come to my house after school?" I ask cause I know he wouldn't tell me in public. He just nods in agreement and I see a small tear trickle down his cheek. He casually wakes out to go to the bathroom, trying to be unnoticed. He doesn't like crying in front of people.
After school I wait for Noah. I can't find him so I decide to drive home and meet him there. I waited for about 15 minutes before texting him.
Me: hey where are you? You said you'd come over
Noah: ..........
Me: Noah what's going on????

Me: Noah I'm sorry for whatever happened but it helps to talk about it. Please don't do this. Don't make this the last text you will read. Don't do it for me or Isabelle. Do it for yourself. Please don't do this. Come over
