I was going to get him back. If he fell in love with me before, he can fall in love with me again. The pain he gave me was unbearable.
My heart was just dying. I had so much pain, I wasn't normal. How could he be so okay? Doesn't he remember all the memories we shared? Am I really that easy to forget?
I still remember the day I broke up with him. That horrid day.
"Delilah, please, we can make this work. Just don't end it here. At least give me a reason! Please." Jake's words echo through my mind. His eyes, leaving a permanent image in my brain.
"I'm sorry Jake. Its not you it's me."
Why was I so dumb?! It was so stupid of me.
" Deliah? How did it go with Jake?" My best friend, Kate's voice interrupts my thoughts. I jumped slightly.
" Oh Kate." I got up to hug her . I hugged her so tightly I thought I was going to break her ribs. She was so tiny.
" What happened?" Her bright green eyes shined with worry. Her hair was blowing in the wind.
" He said he didn't love me anymore. He said he forgot about me. He said to find someone else. " I felt my heart shatter at remembering those words.
" Oh Deliah. Don't worry there's many other fishes in the sea." She brings me into a hug. She starts petting my long, dark brown, hair.
" But he'll always be my nemo."
" Oh my poor baby." Kate hugs me.
" Kate, people are staring. " I pull away. The park we were at, it wasn't so private.
" Well then why don't we met up at my place? Why did we have to go to the park anyways?" She starts to head to her car. The sound of her high heels echoing.
" Well I really didn't want to put a fake smile on my face for your parents, and Jake is your neighbor. " I start to follow her, knowing she wasn't going to leave me alone, until I told her everything.
" Well my parents are gone for the week, and you know your dying to see him again." She smiles and hops in her car. I plaster a smile on my face and get in also.
" You can see him clearly through my window. "
" You've stalked him before?" I ask, putting my seatbelt on.
" Well he is the hottest guy in town." She smiles, and starts the car.
" Oh kate." My stomach felt upset at knowing I might see Jake again.
••••••••••••
" How could he get over you so soon? He was like really in love with you."
" I know. But it's my fault. I broke up with him. I told him to move on , and now I regret it so very much." I played with Kate's millions of stuffed animals.
My eyes were tempting to look through Kate's window.
" Your so stupid. He was perfect, he would never say no to you. He would surprise you with gifts everyday. "
" I know, I know." I roll off Kate's bed, getting away from her window.
I looked around Kate's room. It was so colorful, and happy. Tons of pictures covered her walls.
" Why did you break up with him anyways?" She threw some pillows at me.
" You wouldn't get it." I threw one pillow back, but failed miserably.
" I will if you tell me, I would probably get it. Im pretty smart you know." She giggles.
" Fine, sit your butt down, its story time." I walked to her bed, as she sat in front of me.
" Well, it just, that, that. Ugh! Its so hard to explain!" I throw my head back in frustration.
"Let's just put it this way. I have a carving for being free. For being able to do what I want. When I was with Jake, I didn't feel free. I felt trapped in his arms. I wanted release. I thought that my carving for freedom was going to go away after a while,"
" But it didn't. So you broke up with him, and then figured out that freedom wasn't what you wanted. You wanted his love more than you wanted your freedom. And now that your not confused anymore, you want him back. But he doesn't." Kate finishes off my exact words.
" Exactly. Expect the last part. Im still confused. Im still not sure exactly what I want. But right now, I just want him to love me again." I sigh.
" Did you try telling him that?" She asks.
" He wouldn't understand." I play with my fingers.
" Well I did."
" Yeah but your a girl. Your supposed to understand." She nods and looks away. Something was on her mind. Something that wasn't good.
" Tell me." I tell her.
" I can't. " She starts to walk around the room.
" Why?" I follow her steps.
" Cause it will break your heart even more," She glances at the window and then looks at me.
Great its about Jake.
" Kate. Things can't get any worse." I grab her arms." Tell me, Please."
" Okay. " She started playing with her hair.
" Well um, I saw Jake with a girl."
" What?" My world faded.
I thought I could get him to love me again. But I never thought he'd fallen in love with someone else, before I even had a chance to try to get him in my arms again
