It had been a typical school day. I was sitting at lunch, third wheeling with my best friend couple: Barry and Iris. After a while of joking and teasing, I could notice she had something on her mind.
"Chloe, I need to tell you something. It's not about anyone here, don't worry," she said. I had a slight suspicion I knew where this was going, but I didn't want to jump to conclusions.
She sent little clues in my direction. She shot her eyes pointing to Barry. I got the hint and mouthed something back when he looked away. But he caught on and got suspicious. He then stood up and grabbed his stuff off the table before leaving. The bell hadn't even rung yet and he didn't even say goodbye. I took that as my chance.
"You're gonna break up with him?"
I asked her.
"Yes, maybe, I don't know....I'm a mess....."
"YOU CAN'T! You've been dating for like two weeks. Not to mention this is the SECOND time you have been together. Do you know how hard it was to pick up the pieces after the first time?" I asked angrily. "You can't just go around breaking people's hearts, Iris. You know Barry, he's fragile and vulnerable. He's still hurting from the last time. He cares about you and the fact that you are thinking about this.....how could you.....why could you....you can't..you can't do this..."
"I can do whatever I want and this is it."
"Think of last time. He was so sad and depressed and you didn't even talk to him. I was the only one who was there for him. And now you want to mess with that?"
"I'm sorry. But I just don't feel the spark I did with him before."
"THAT'S WHAT YOU SAID THE FIRST TIME! This isn't just something you can turn on and off. Either you love him or you don't You must not, despite the fact that you told him hundreds of times."
"I'm sorry....but this has to be done."
"No, this conversation has to be," I said before grabbing my stuff off the table and following my nerdy counterpart. I knew this was going to happen eventually and as much as I don't want it to happen, I know it is going to. I just want to protect him. But you can't always....
