When A Heart Gets Broken

Part 24: Decision

Rey was sure that she has to pay what she owed  Liam's family. The soonest, the better.

"They're good people...I know that., but this is the only way." Rey is convincing herself why she needs to pay it off...NOW.

The situation has become very painful for her. Even the slightest memory of Jessica and Liam together stabs her heart so deeply. Concentrating in her readings has become more difficult to do as days go by.

" I just can't set –aside this thoughts...about them. I tried but I failed big time," Jessica was crying quietly in her study table. Ryder and Harper  were asleep in the big room. Her head was on the table when Mikey walked in.

" Friend...what's wrong with you? Si Liam na naman ba?"

" I know right? Wasting my tears for someone na hindi ko naman boyfriend!"

Tumulo na naman ang luha ni Rey.

Mikey was watching his friend intently.

" It's really up to you. You can only do two things to resolve your situation. I know these are hard to do but I can't see anything that will make life easier for you right now."

First option is to be upfront and tell him your situation. Maybe, she's just there because she has nowhere to go and in reality,they're not sleeping together. There are a lot of maybes Rey.The question is...are you willing to find out the other possibilities?

Second option is to pay your debt, leave and find a replacement. You'll leave quietly which will preserve your pride. N o one will know that he broke your heart.

Mikey has left a few hours ago but she's still awake. She made a decision.
