I was heartbroken. Anthony managed to get her back. I don't get why he did that. He was making me happy. He was making me smile and laugh. He was making me feel special. He threw it all away. I know he didn't think much of it, but I was really hurt. He didn't care. He never did.

I was really busy in the month of November. At least, it seemed like it. That was when Anthony & Kaliyah got back together. My mom was getting married. My school got in the way a lot. I don't really think I was busy, I'm sure it was just my thoughts consuming me. Just the pain finally settling in.

My moms wedding was coming around. I had forgotten that she invited Anthony and his family to the wedding. I never made contact with him. He didn't try to talk to me. It was so hard. Not hearing his voice. Seeing the emotionless look on his face. He seemed so cold and broken. Like he would break at any moment. Fragile. But why? He had Kaliyah. He had everything else he needed. I wasn't one of them. Surprise Surprise.

When he was with Kaliyah again, we became distant. He was always with her. Never thinking of me again. But it was funny because he always seemed to crawl into my thoughts. No matter when or how or where, he popped into my head.

The end of November came. They ended it for good. Kaliyah told him she never even loved him. That hurt him. A lot. Not as much as he hurt me, but enough to feel pain. He tried talking to me again. I rejected at first, but then my stupid self let him come back. I told him how I felt when him and Kaliyah got back together.
"Giovanna, I'm so stupid. God, I would never want you to feel like that. I'm so sorry."
"It's fine. I'll be fine." These were one of the first few lies I told him. He believed me. Clueless boys. After a while, we got back into the swing of things. It took us a while to get back like that, but it took us seconds to end it again.
