Chapter 2

So today I decided to tell my bff about my parents plan, and maybe get ab advice.

As I walk through the corridors on the way to my room, I saw Jim, and guess what, he is literally kneeling down in one knee infront of my bestfriend Val.

I rapidly walked towards her and asked what's going on.

"Oh Dela, he asked me to be his girlfriend." Val said happily.

"So what did you say?" I asked curiously.

"Ofcourse yes."

I didn't know what happened next, but my tears just started falling when I started running away. After running away, I found myself standing infront of my house.

'Maybe I could just agree to my parents, maybe it would stop my heart from aching.' I thought to myself.

'Wait, I could probably use him to make Val and Jim jealous.'

I went inside my house, talked to my parents, and agreed to their proposal. I went back to class and saw them sitting beside each other, but I just smiled at Val and sat at another chair, that is far away from her.

After the class, Val came to me.

"Dela, I know that you love him, and I love you too, but I also love Jim, and he chose me not you, so please, don't make it harder than it is."

"Val, you're my best friend, I respect you. I know that my dreams will only be dreams, so I decided to give up for you."

After the conversation, I decided not to tell Val about my parents proposal.

So as the days go by, my birthday keeps getting nearer, my feelings for Jim starts to fly away, and both Val and Jim keep getting closer, except for today. Val and Jim had a fight, and I wanted to comfort my best friend, so I went beside her.

"Val, what's going on?"

"Jim said he wanted us to done." Val said while crying.

"Do you know why?"

"He said he wants me to move on before he goes away to America."

I called Jim to talked with us in a private place, and he came by himself.

"Jim, I know that you want her to move on, but can't you two just enjoy whats left of your time? It hurts me to see my bestfriend suffering, so please, come back to her."

"I thought you want to be mine?"

"I did Jim, but I want my best friend to be happy more than I want you."

At the end of the day, they got back from each other.

Although my feelings haven't fully moved on, but I am looking forward to my birthday.
