Chapter XVI: The Big Fight

            We had been in this relationship for four years. I can already consider it as “The Perfect One”. We did have fights; it is always incorporated in relationships, but those fights were not serious and happen pretty seldom. One very unfortunate day, we had a fight, a very big one. I caught him dating another woman. He explained to me that the woman was his childhood friend. I never experienced anything like this before. He is my first boyfriend, so I have no idea how to handle situations like this. This is a first. What I did was I avoided him. I never answered his calls nor retuned them. I never entertained him when he goes to our house. I never even tried to listen to his explanations. I was at my room, lying on my bed, thinking about things. Then, I remembered the curse. My relationships were based on books I read. I looked for the book that I had not finished reading. The one I was reading before James courted me; the one where a girl got into a relationship with her crush. “Thank God it is still here.” I said to myself when I saw the book inside my drawer. I opened the book to where the bookmark was placed and started reading it again. I really need and answer to my problem. Will our relationship be fixed? I was already finished reading the book. To my dismay, it has no proper ending. It was cut. I opened my laptop and searched if it has a continuation in a form of another book. I desperately searched for it, but no luck. It has no continuation. The author had died before he had even started writing the second part of the story. I was dumbfounded. I was clueless of what I’ll do next. I lay on my bed thinking of what to do. Then suddenly, my mind came up with a thought. “Maybe it already depends on me. Maybe I am to decide whether I’ll keep the relationship or not.” I said to myself.
