The Pieces

Rich Girl

Ophelia POV:

I had everything.

I was pretty, smart, and popular. Any guy would be head over heels for me. Yet I'm still sobbing over this one.

12th October 1995

"Elliot, are you free this afternoon?"

He didn't respond.

Elliot was my boyfriend. We've been dating for 3 years now

"Elliot?" I call again before looking over in the direction he was looking at just to see Amora, my best friend. He was looking at her.

"Elliot??" I said once more, this time shaking him by his shoulder.

"Huh..yeah?" He said without lifting his eyes off of her. He wasn't listening to me. I stood up and walked out, which I don't think he even noticed. This had been going on for weeks now, and I tried my best to ignore it. I really did. But the thoughts of him and Amora together just made me sick to the stomach. And instead of confronting him, I went to her.

"Amora! You- you filthy backstabbing-" I yelled as I stormed towards her.

"Oph-" She turned around and spoke startled

"You ruined everything!"

"Ophelia what are you talking about-"

"You know exactly what I'm talking about! I know what's been going on with you and Elliot!"

"Ophelia.."

"Enough! I don't want to listen to you spitting lies out of the same mouth you used to seduce Elliot!"

At this point, I realized everyone was looking at us. But that didn't stop me. I was furious and couldn't control myself. I took out my wand and pointed it at her, but before I could do anything, someone stopped me.

It was Elliot.

He looked at me disgusted before running up to Amora to check on her, leaving me lost for words.

I was shattered.

I was so blindly in love with him that I failed to notice his true intentions. He dated me to get closer to her. I decided to leave because if I had stayed any longer, I wouldn't have been able to hold back the tears.
