stay with me, don't go anywhere

my particular friend is visiting his family for the winter holiday. he is sleeping in his childhood bedroom, under a quilt his mom made out of the clothes he wore when he was a toddler.

i'm glad he's happy. that's neither sarcasm nor self pity. it really makes me feel better to know that other people can be happy, right now.

things are bad here. the worst part is not knowing what is coming next.
