Lucky for you…

…I don’t forget the little things

And why should I? You had a misunderstanding with your colleague at work yesterday? Of course I’ll ask you “what’s up with that” 2 days after. I believe friendships/relationships shouldn’t just be about the big things, the big wins, the big losses, it’s about the simple everyday things. So if you think I won’t enquire about that troublesome colleague, if you think I’ll forget about what you told me last night, you wish.

…I will hype you

All I need to see is you make an effort & I’ll hype you like a grandmother hypes her grandson. You don’t even need to do something extraordinary, whatever little thing you’ve achieved, or drawn, or written, or designed or said, I will clap for you. Because you deserve it. Because I won’t miss an opportunity to tell you how well you’re doing, because life is too short to keep my compliments to myself. So don’t play humble, accept them.

…I can make you laugh

I’m not a comedian, but I know for a fact I have a decent sense of humor. I love memes, I love sarcasm, I play with words & I’m not so straightforward & bland. So if I feel you enough to talk to you, I’m on my way to making you laugh with a subtle joke or jab.

…I genuinely care about you

I do.

Tell me what’s wrong, tell me what happened today, tell me why you’re happy, tell me why you’re sad. I want to hear, I want to listen. Maybe I’ll have an advice to give after, maybe I won’t. We’ll worry about that later. But for now, I care about you & I want nothing but peace & everything nice for you.

…I’m a hard girl

Do you believe that? It’s a lie. I’m not a hard girl. It’s a facade.

You would think I’m a hard girl when I don’t laugh at the office joke, or when I resist & act stubborn, I am stubborn but I’m not a hard girl. I cry at the littlest things, you just would never see it.

My heart bursts when I see a little one; animal or human.

I feel the pain of people I don’t know. I wish there was a way I could help, but there isn’t so I just sit there & feel it with them, until they don’t feel it anymore, or until I forget. I am anything but a hard girl. You overrate me.

…I will apologize if I’m wrong

Apologizing is not an easy thing. But I am willing to do that if I see clearly that it’ll make things better. Or better yet, if I know I’m in the wrong. I just have to talk about it with you. What happened & why did it happen. Was it something I did, or was it something I said. Let me know how I wronged you & give me the chance to defend myself & my actions. I am not perfect, I’m human & I will step on toes. Now, if I do that & you assume that I know, that wouldn’t be fair, because I actually do not know. You have to open up & tell me & when I see it, I will apologize. I value you too much.

…I eat Semo

I’m not sure you’re lucky on this one.

But just know that I can stomach Semo. I see semo as that gentle girl at the back of the class that people don’t pay attention to. I want to give her attention, I want her to feel seen, she doesn’t deserve the prejudice so yes, I like her & I will keep her company, I’m sorry.

…I’m fine with silence

Again, maybe this isn’t something you’re lucky about. But it’s okay if we don’t talk. We don’t always have to say something to each other at every minute. I like to spend time alone. Just me & my environment, I’m barely bored by myself. So as long as we both know that things are good between us, it’s okay if we have a little bit of silence. I just have to know that you’re okay.

…It’s not hard to talk to me

Life is hard enough. Talking to me shouldn’t be too. Let’s start off with a joke & end it with something deeply inspirational, or start off with a joke & end it with a joke. Let’s laugh, let’s share memes, or books, or music or articles. Let’s talk about how This is Us ended. Let’s just enjoy each other’s company, let’s enjoy the moment. Life is hard enough.

…I can draw

So maybe, just maybe I will draw you someday. But don’t count it. Don’t bank on it. Well unless you pay me to, then I certainly will.

…I have a pretty smile

So maybe I don’t even have to say anything when you’re having a bad day. Maybe just a picture of me will brighten you up. Lucky for me then I guess.

& lastly, lucky for you…

…I like you

And when I do, you know.
