"What's wrong??" I asked, still maintaining the same position, only that he was now hugging me a little more tightly this time. He hugged me like I would disappear if he let go or if he didn't hug me tight enough.
I had my own arms wolded around him just the same, there seemed to be something off about him this moment, he seemed to be a little soft, like someone who was missing someone. Was he missing someone?
He finally broke the embrace, but not letting go of me, it gave me the chance to take a good look at him, his eyes were sunken and a little reddened, "you don't look ok to me" I told him, I didn't want to ask, it would give him a chance to deny it.
"Just a little headache" he said in a woozy voice.
"Well it doesn't look so to me. Want a massage?" I blurted out of nowhere, I was even shoked at my own self, I'm sure my brain isn't aware of the words I just uttered, what made me say that??
