#pa stuff

We both grew up too fast; in different ways, sure, but the sentiment is still there. We get it in an unspoken way that I've never seen in anyone else. He made it out stronger than I did (of course). But to hear him talk - he says he feels nothing anymore and I believe him, but the way his voice go softer and less confident is really telling. When he told me about the bills and the tapping, my stomach twisted in a horrifying empathy and understanding. I don't think he's told anyone else about that. I don't know who he would. And to hear that I'm the only one younger than him was validating in a way I didn't expect. I don't know whether that's good or not. It's all going to come out eventually for him and he's going to be okay because that's just how he is, but I know exactly what's going to happen and I wish to god that I could do something about it.
