nicer

I wanted to
treat you
like one of the gang.

To treat you
nicer
than the others
would raise suspicions.
would call into question
would ruin my reputation

I like you
I respect you.

I can be nicer.

However,

You
asked
me to just act
normal.

I wish I could,
but you see,
This always was normal...
for me.
besides
I never was much of an actor.
