"Okay, he mentioned something about having feelings for another girl too." Tokyo says trying to pick his words carefully in order not to hurt me.

And that moment, I feel my heart break into a million pieces.
Dave smith has feelings for someone that isn't Me.

Who could she be?

"Who is she?" I find myself voicing out my thoughts in a nanosecond.

"I think he said something like Oliver abi Olivia." He says, trying to remember the name.

"Olivia. So she's the one?" I ask in a dangerously low tone but somehow, Tokyo manages to hear me.

"Yes. Do you know her?" He asks making me chuckle lowly.

"She was my freaking childhood friend T. We played with sand and made fake food together."

"Mehn, this is bad."

"So she's the one?" I find myself asking again. A lot is going through my head at this point. A lot of flashbacks coming in. He likes her bro. And all along, my main focus was on Kylie. I remember the night I asked Joshua who else he always spoke about asides me and his response was Kylie and Olivia.

She was there all along but I didn't see her.
Not like I didn't see her, I always knew she was there but I didn't see her as a threat. I didn't pay much attention to her. Most of my focus was on Kylie.
I didn't know that this girl was low-key doing her doings.
Now I'm hearing that he has feelings for her?

"How are you sure he likes her?" I ask and Tokyo chuckles dryly.

Asper; this one doesn't even know what is going on, I'm telling you and you're questioning me type of chuckle.

"I said he told me. I think they are even dating."

God.
Could this night get any worse!?

"I'm not going to believe that. Dave is not dating anybody." I find myself defending him.

He can't be dating anyone, right?
He's trying to focus on his goals right?
A girl will only distract him, right?

But what if she wasn't just any girl to him?

"I'm not really sure though but I know he likes her and she likes him too and she comes around and all that shit."

So I'm killing myself everyday and night for this motherfucker that has already moved on with another girl?

Who am I kidding bro?
Who!?

"So she comes around?" I ask.

"Look, can we just forget about this and act like I never even said this to you? I'm not even supposed to be saying all of this to you in the first place." Tokyo pleads but it's already too late to turn back.

"So she comes around?" I ask again, my voice dangerously low.

"Yes Jasmine, she comes around. Now can we change the topic?"

But could Dave really be dating her?

"But you said he missed me Tokyo." My eyes bore into his, impatiently searching for answers.

"Yes he does. He likes the Olivia girl but I think he likes you more because he can't stop talking about you and asking me to take good care of you and all of that cheesy shit. I think he's just using her to fill in your space or something." Tokyo tries to convince me but I ain't buying all that shit at this point.

"How is it possible to like two girls Tokyo? Your heart is only supposed to belong to one person!" I scream.

"Don't get me wrong but you liked this guy in your school and you liked Dave too. How did you do that again?" He counters in defence of Dave.
