“ALEX!!” Jordan interrupted, “I don’t have cancer… Just let me talk please…I haven’t really told you about why I’m here because I’m embarrassed; and I’m scared. And I want to tell you because you’re my friend but I’m still afraid that if I do, maybe you won’t want to be my friend anymore… And I don’t have that many friends… And I don’t know what I’d do if you didn’t want to be my friend and it’s so scary and I j…j…just don’t know what I’d do…” She began crying again.
“Jordan – Calm down. We’re best friends. Think about how many secrets I’ve told you about my life. How can you possibly tell me something that’s gonna make me wanna ditch you? Relax Girl!”
She has a point I guess, Jordan thought to herself.
