After that night, I was starting to harbour some form of hope that Daniel actually had feelings for me. I was secretly wishing that one day, he would tell me that he actually liked me.
However, as time passed, Daniel and Jessica started to hang out more. He started to talk to her more and go out on outings together.
Whenever I texted him, asking him whether he wanted to hang out together, he would reply back that he had a meeting with Jessica and couldn't hang out with me.
Upon seeing Daniel and Jessica get closer and closer, my heart gradually shattered into pieces and I no longer had faith that Daniel had feelings for me.
As expected, Daniel and Jessica eventually started dating each other. I felt a pang of jealousy in my heart but I did not express it. Daniel had probably started to develop feelings for Jessica after the prom.
Well, what could I do? I couldn't do anything, and the best thing I could do for him as a friend was to support his relationship with Jessica. I had no right to get jealous over him and Jessica because I had missed the chance and Jessica was a decent girl.
Weeks passed, months passed. I learnt to accept the cold, hard truth and supported them. I still remained broken-hearted and the regret still lingered in my heart.
Of course, now that he had a girlfriend, Daniel hung out with Jessica even more, and he started to drift away from me. Nevertheless, we were still neighbours with each other and remained close friends with each other.
Even though all my other friends had gotten their partners, I remained single. Perhaps I was foolishly waiting for Daniel.
The day that he would come to me.
