Maliah sat beside her. “And I didn’t want to lose you. I thought holding tighter would stop the rip. But maybe I just made it wider.”

It started small — a borrowed hoodie never returned, a canceled plan, a boy named Cole who told them both different things. Maliah felt Mia pulling away; Mia felt Maliah holding on too tight.

Then one night, Maliah found a crumpled note under her pillow in Mia’s handwriting: maliah.mia siterip

Maliah pulled a needle and thread from her jacket pocket. “We stitch.”

They shared a room, a birthday month, and a secret language no one else understood. Maliah sat beside her

“I told her you were sad,” Maliah shot back. “I was trying to help.”

For three weeks, they didn't speak. They moved through the same house like ghosts avoiding each other's gravity. Their mom tried to mediate. Their little brother asked why dinner felt so cold. But maybe I just made it wider

“Help? You ripped everything open, Maliah. Like you always do.”
