Summary
Jake loved drawing. It calmed him, helped him ease down. His pen always brushed easily along the white, thin paper. It was something he could look forward to, have a purpose in his life other than trying to appease his father.
Nonetheless, once it was Jay he saw on the paper, it got to him.
Jake stopped drawing. He played sports, went to parties, and never touched a sketchbook again. Jay had always been the same, a new phase here and there, but at the end of the day, he stuck to what he knew. That was the difference between them. Jake listened to everyone around him, gave in to advice that people gave him that, realistically, didn’t matter at all, and he knew it didn’t matter, but not wanting to admit certain things about himself won the battle.
So college arriving at his doorstep wasn’t good for him. Because with adulthood, he didn’t have the excuse of being a stupid teenager who made decisions he knew were secretly not the best for him, decisions that would cause him to lose who he was.
The only good thing about it was that he had Jay through it all.
