A Tale From A Betrayed Heart

Chapter 3

Brianna's POV

Well, fast forward to my best friend, Stacy Miller, I call her my sister most times because she means more than a friend to me. I've known Stacy all my life. I was really dependent on Stacy that when I found out what she did, I was shocked, I couldn't believe it, and it did not go down well with me. I always counted on Stacy, I trusted her with my life. Stacy was that part of my life I will forever be grateful for, just because she hurt me badly doesn't mean that I would forget our good times and that she was always my backbone, this is to tell you how dependent I was. I loved the fact that I had a best friend, someone I could trust that much because I hardly trust people. I will always hold on to our good memories, she wronged me, yes, but she is still a good person, except she's changed now.

I don't think I will be able to replace Stacy, although they say it's not how long you've known each other, but the bond you share with each other, but I really don't need friends now maybe I will have a change of heart later, who knows.

I'm drawn out of thoughts when my phone started ringing, picking it up to see the caller, it's my dad calling.

'Hey, dad'. I answered

'Hey Hon, how are you? He asked

'I'm fine I guess, well you know work and all". I said with a shudder, knowing fully well he won't buy it.

"You don't have to lie to me bri, I know you're not fine. It hasn't been easy for you and I'm so sorry about that, I wish I could help make you feel better" he said with love in his voice.

''I will be fine dad, I can't remain like this forever, everything that happened was for a reason" I said, I tell myself this all the time trying to hide the fact that whatever happened broke me. I don't want to make him worry more than he is already worrying right now.

'Okay dear, if you say so, just know that I'm always here for you, I love you so much' he replied.

'I know dad, I love you too. I will talk to you soon, have a nice day' I said while smiling and hung up.

Thank God my dad called, I sigh, and I feel much better after talking to him. These past few years have been a roller coaster of emotions for my family and me. My parents had a divorce, my mum didn't want the relationship they both shared, and she never wanted it. All these years she only stayed because of my siblings and me. Things have gotten better since she left although that space is still there, I still miss her though, after all, she's my mom. But if she felt we were holding her down then I'm sorry to say I'm happy she left. I only grateful to God that I'm old enough to be there for my siblings and my dad, I now stand as their mom. Although it will take a lot of time to heal, the process is tough and hard but I know it gets better.
