Today has just been one rainy day.
I was just sitting here, playing video games.
A friend came over not long from now, and she was crying, (rainy day, go figure) and she told me that her uncle died today, and that her mom had flipped out and said some things, one thing led to another, and she ended up coming here. She said she had nowhere else to go, and i agree, but either way, i'm glad i was the one she came to. That was at that moment, but then it came time where i should say something that would comfort her if at least a little bit, and at that moment i wished i hadn't been the one she'd come to see.
All i could really tell her was that thing's like this happen because of bad luck, not because no one did anything. It was all just really really really bad luck. I told her it was really bad luck and that there wasn't much else she could do but hope that things would get better.
I hadn't been there for her throughout everything she'd been going through since we talked last. I remembered the friendship she and i had before, and how it changed. i'm trying to get it back, but right now, i feel like the most useless person to her at that point.
Another friend told me it's all i could have done, and that sometimes it's enough. I just wish i thought it were enough.
