It's nice finally meeting with a familiar face. Someone who understands me and my situation. Valentina was stunned to see me and almost slapped me for giving her such a scare. But it is my fault which I will admit. I shouldn't have taken off without her knowing but I felt like I had no choice at the time. Everything hurt back then.

I've dried up and put myself in one of Val's leopard pajamas. Luckily for me, her parents are away for the week so they won't acknowledge my short visit. I know Val's mom is one them moms who like to pry in other peoples businesses. If she knows i'm here she would be on a call with my mom and I can't risk that.

I don't want to see her at all.

I managed to update Val and tell her everything that's happened. She was empathetic and granted me the support that I needed. "Here", She says after stepping into the room with a bowl full of chips. I smile at her with gratitude as she drops her body onto the bed beside me.

"Snacks always cheer you up", She says. "I don't think anything will cheer me up right now Val", I speak with honesty. "Hey. Don't say that", She says whilst wrapping an arm around me. "Half the time men don't know what they want. And plus, you know deep down you can't get upset. He did what he could whilst still being married", Val says.

I know she's right. I have no right to be mad at Adam as he's only ever shown me how much he cares for me. "He might have lied to protect your feelings. Why would he even bring all that up with someone he doesn't even care about?", Val reassures and I nod.

I know Adam loves me. But having someone that's blocking our love makes it difficult to enjoy the sweet moments I have with him. I couldn't even enjoy the moment we had in the kitchen this morning without her interrupting and reminding me that she's had him once.

Even if I try, I can't win with a woman who has him tied to her. I'm nothing compared to her, even if Adam says otherwise. My heart sinks at the thought and I feel myself starting to cry. "Aw Larisa!", Val says and pulls me towards her. 

"You never cry. What is this bitch! You ain't weak", She alerts which earns a chuckle from me. "Sorry. I'm just finding it hard to cope with everything that's happened", I say. "Well you know you can stay here for as long as you like. And I'm renting an apartment when I move for college. We're besties! You can come and live with me and get a job there or something", She says supportively.

"Really?. You wouldn't mind that?", I ask. "Um NO!. I've always wanted you as a roommate. Larisa everything will fall into place you don't need to worry", She reassures.
