Can you juggle your teenage life?

You: "Tamsin, are you sure you are alright? I am really worried about you"

Tamsin: "I-I'm fine! Wh-why would there be anything wrong?"

You: "Well, for one, you kind of blanked out at the bus stop. You ran off when I talked to you and even now, your voice is shaking"

Tamsin didn't respond to this. She just looked nervous.

You: "Tamsin?"

You took her by the hand softly.

You: "Tamsin, if anything is wrong, you can tell me"

Tamsin looked at your hand for 2 seconds then looked into your eyes.

Tamsin: "But, why would you care...about someone as worthless as me?"

You take her by the other hand and look into her eyes.

You: "You are not worthless, you are intelligent, funny, friendly and..."

You decide to say something to really make her day.

You: "...cute"

Tamsin looked up at you.

Tamsin: "Wh-what?"

You: "Yeah, cute. You are really cute"

You smile at her.

Tamsin became more nervous but you could see some happiness in her.

Tamsin: "Wow...you really think I'm...cute?"

You: "Beautiful, even"

Tamsin: "Th-thanks..."

The bus stop.

Tamsin: "Th-this is my stop...I-I-I guess I will see you tomorrow..."

She walked off the bus. You could still see she was happy and nervous at the same time.
