I was determined to make it through the school year free from the mind control of the opposite gender.
those y chromosome holders.
those stupid BOYS.
I thought I had sworn to never again let such frivolous, girly concerns play in my brain, take priority, and distract me from my duties.
yet I honestly can't recall ever feeling this weak for someone.
and why him?
when I could so easily ignore him.
and prevent such unnecessary distress.
it has worked so far.
but I can only sustain this barrier for so long.
how many times must I turn down his offers for him to understand?
that I have greater commitments.
that I still have school to finish.
and college to prepare for.
but by the time this crazy semester ends, he will be gone from my life.
without warning.
and I will have no way of stopping him.
then, looking back, I’ll ask myself:
was it really worth it?

…you fucker
