Unwritten Code

*A conversation between my best friend, Faith, and Christine, which Faith sent to me.

Christine: how is Kari by the way
Nachstenliebe: well….Kari hates you and Martin with a passion
Christine: I know, I’m trying to change that somehow
Faith: You can’t change it hun
Christine: I really don’t want it to be like this. I don’t want it to turn into a Kelly thing
Faith: Christine darling, there are unwritten laws in the world of teen girl friendships, and you broke one of the most solid rules of them all
Faith: It already is the kelly thing…whether you want a different ending or not… it’s already parallel to it
Christine: I know. It sucks, and I feel really bad about Kari’s and my relationship. I want to make it up to her somehow, if she’ll just let me.
Christine: How is she doing besides that
Faith: Well, I’ll be honest with you… She has every right not to. When a girl dates a guy, hell even likes him, he’s automatically branded as that girl’s and off limits to any of her friends. Even when they break up.. And when a girl is still not even over the guy…. you’re treading dangerous waters… If you really like Martin, and didn’t want to sacrifice your friendship with Kari, which you did.. you should have talked about it with her before dating him
Christine: I understand, it was really stupid of me, trust me I know, and if I could go back and change it, I would definitely do so in a heartbeat.
Christine: is she ok with everything else though?
Faith: hmm well it’s not my place to really discuss anything that doesn’t involve you directly
Christine: ok, I’m just woried about her
Christine: I know it sounds wierd, but I do
Faith: it’s not weird… but you forfeited every right to do so though
Christine: Can I tell you something?
Faith: hmm?
Christine: the other night when I was talking to her online she seemed mad and upset about everything. Like she didn’t have a care in the world
Christine: while I was talking to her I felt so incredibly bad about everthing, not just about me and Martin, but everything, that I had tears coming down my face. That’s how strongly bad I feel, if not then even more
Christine: I know that it’s not an excuse
Faith: She’s closing you out of her life… Building a barrier up between you and her. She’s going to act like she doesn’t care because she wants to feel like she doesn’t care. And you aren’t in the exact position to be a confidante so if she does have any problems she’s not going to directly say them to you
Christine: and that it doesn’t make anything right
Faith: The problem is that this has happened to Kari before.. so it’s going to effect her to the extreme.. All she needs is time.. and with time she may be able to forgive you guys… but she’s hurt by it all, and it’s not gonna just go away because you feel bad about what you’ve done.
Christine: I know, I’m just stupid when it comes to these things, and I told her that I would give her some time.
Faith: good… that’s all that can really be done at this point. But it’s going to be a looooooong time… She’s still miffed about Kelly and Jerry… so it’s going to take twice as long with you and Martin because you guys should have known this sacred rule seeing as we went through it all already
Christine: she left me with an impression, and I really hope that I am wrong
Faith: impression of what?
Christine: I kind of got the feeling a couple of times that she might try to do something to hurt herself. And I know that she’s done it before, so that makes it more believable and nerve racking. But please don’t tell her that I said this that’s why I am even more worried about her right now
Faith: She’s not going to hurt herself…no need to worry
Christine: ok, thank god, she was sending me in loops
Faith: heh
