My first love was also my first heartbreak. We were not meant to be and it took me years to accept that and moved on. Who knew the love I thought was so magical was just another relationship to Cherry. I should have guessed, I could not have been her first love.

I wanted to be cool about it like she was but I couldn't. She thought that I accepted the break up very well and mature but when I wasn't with her I couldn't eat, sleep, or work, I couldn't function right. The whole time I was heart broken, Amanda took care of me, she understood that I just wanted to be left alone. She brought me food and laid beside me without saying a word, just wanted me to know that I was never alone and I always got her by my side.

That was when I realized how broken a heart could get. It was actually painful, like physically painful, my chest felt tight 24/7. It got me wondering how long would this pain last, was it going to be forever? Eventually Amanda was right about the whole "Space will help you forget and time will heal the rest". In the end, I learned a lot from what happened.

The table vibrated. I put the script down and grabbed my phone. It was a text from Lily. My stomach turned.

Hi Sarah, maybe 'next time' can be right now. Wanna grab a coffee? - Lily.

Cherry, she was my first love sure but she was never a good girlfriend. I deserve someone better.

Sarah
I'll meet you there, give me 20 minutes.
