I was getting ready for the meeting this morning and Ben came in my room. He was using my leave in conditioner and he for some reason just stood there. He was almost hesitating.
"Can I see something?" He asked kinda slow. I looked at him funny and gave a shrug. Ben and I don't talk much so I'm a little awkward around him. I felt pain in my chest as soon as he picked up my wrist. I couldn't help it I just started to cry. I'm still so ashamed at my weakness. He saw right away and hugged me closely.
"Mali, I love you so much. I would never judge you for this. It's not that bad. You saw your mistake and you are moving on. You are a beautiful girl and I love you so much ok? You have no idea how much I love you..I know we dont talk much..you are so pretty, you have no idea what my friends say about you. Just do your thing and what you know is right. I know it's hard and sometimes confusing. If you ever need to talk to me you can call me or anything ok? I love you so much." He kept hugging me and wiping my tears away. I think that was the closest I've ever been to him in my life, and I realize that no matter how far he gets and even though he makes stupid descisions, I love him. I had to write this somewhere. I will never forget it. He left the church so things between us have been weird, but now I see that I can have a really good relationship with him..I dont know really what to say, but just writing this is making me cry. I want to forget this past experience a lot. I want it to leave. I think this is finally that last time that I will have to remember it, and I'm glad. I just wanted the world to know that Ben is the best brother a person could ever have.
