The morning had suddenly all gone to hell. Mickey was now looking chagrined and slightly taken aback that he had just possibly hurt one of the kindest girls we knew. He looked after Callie as she stormed off. I felt bad for her, she never asked to be born with that gift of hers. We had watched her growing up. It wasn’t easy for her knowing how people felt about her. Growing up in a  small town where the families had two parents and two kids and houses with white fences  was never easy. She had lived in foster homes amid the old fashioned dream of 2.5 kids and a white picket fence until a lady named Octavia found her and took her in.

Since Callie had learned to block emotions from others, our lives had seemed to even out. I felt really guilty. I should’ve remembered that some days it’s hard for her to keep up the blocking. And I called myself her best friend?

“Fuck I didn’t mean to yell. She just got on my nerves. Ya know she can’t go reading people.”

I nodded, “You must really love him in order for her to pick up on it so strongly, even with her weakened as she is. I think we missed something last night. She seemed normal when we got home.”

Mickey sighed, “I should talk to her. I need to make it up to her.”

I nodded again, “You should start with buying her a book. And chocolate, you know the kind she likes.”

He nodded slightly, still looking green around the gills, “She is the easiest to cheer up. Our little book worm. You think it’s starting? Octavia warned us. Should we call her?”

I shook my head, “Not yet, I’ll call her later if it doesn’t get better. We don’t need our girl depressed. Bad things happen.” He nodded knowingly and slowly wobbled his way to his room. After finishing my breakfast I cleaned up and went to get ready for the day. Her birthday was coming up and I had plans to make and things to do.
