(March 16th, 2010)
When we reach home, I quickly change into my pajama shorts and tank top and lie in bed, opening the book I was assigned by our English professor for the year end exam ; Persuasion by Jane Austen.
I take breaks in between texting Jeremy and reading because I'm getting bored of the book.. Classics aren't my thing.
Cassidy : Hey! I'm going to sleep for a little while, tired after all the Math I had to do for the exam. I'll wait for you to call once you're done tonight. Have fun at your farewell party x
Just as I place my phone on the charger, I notice my screen flashing with a missed call from Jeremy, which I must have missed because my phone was on silent.
Jeremy : I just called you, you didn't pick up? And I will have fun ;) I'll miss you so much :(
I smile at the sweet text and type another one out for him.
Cassidy : I'm sorry. I'm too tired to talk. Go and prepare for your party and again, have fun! I promise I'll pick up as soon as you get back.
I click on the home button and then place my phone back to charge on my nightstand.
A notification pops up from facebook.
Hana Fredrick liked your profile picture.
I look through my news feed, then the ask.fm application to answer a few questions before I notice Jeremy's answer on my news feed.

Hana or Cassidy?
Gotta stick with my wife ;)
He used to call me 'wife' before, until he started calling Hana that. His answer hurt my feelings and I made a note to talk to him about it later. I finally switch my phone off to stop it from distracting me and place it to charge for the umpteenth time now.
I wake up to the sound of my phone beeping again. I move my hand around the nightstand to find my phone and as soon as I do, I switch the flash on.
Darn.
I've overslept. I've slept for thirteen hours straight.
I find the glass of water on my work desk and start drinking as I type in the password and open Whatsapp to view the messages that I've received.
Class 10 [2009-2010] – 156 messages
Acacia – 3 messages
Denis – 6 messages
Jeremy – 1 message
I quickly reply to all the messages, well as fast as I could, having to type with one thumb only.
As soon as I read Jeremy's message, the glass of water slips out of my hands.
Jeremy : Hey Cassidy. I don't know how to tell you this... but, I'm dating Hana.
A small sob escapes my lips, then it turns into loud cries rocking my body. I slowly slide down to the floor and start picking up the shards of glass
Even the pain the glass caused cutting through my skin felt numb after the betrayal Jeremy just put me through.
My heart is sinking. I feel devastated. How could he do this to me? I really thought we were starting to work things out and no matter what, we'd always tell each other what's wrong. It's how we always did things.
