“Well she came to me and said that you had a crush on me, and I was like ‘cool’ but she said she-she would pay me to ask you out” He looks back at his feet “She said if I asked you out, and like told you that I was in a relationship with someone from Australia, which I aren’t, so that she, you I mean, would like, shut up about me, I don’t know. Like she was bored, I guess.” Oh my god…
“So you never actually liked me?” Now I am mad.
“No, no, I did” He says, unsure of himself “Just, she gave me the push, and I guess ”He smiles“ She only paid me £30, but I knew I wasn’t going to do that to you, say I wasn’t interested, but she said I had to do it” I am crying, I think.
“And?” I say, and Luke bites his lip again.
“I, I just wanted to tell you, so that we can be happy”
“HAPPY?!” I shout, annoyed “HOW CAN I VE HAPPY KNOWING IM YOUR £30? THAT YOU GOT PAYED TO GO OUT WITH ME? HOW?!” I shout moving away from him.
“Babe, don’t be like tha-“
“LIKE WHAT LUKE?” I am crying “IT’S OVER, LUKE!”
“B-B-But, Babe?” Luke says, looking scared, I just want to hug him, but I can’t bring myself to let this go. How could he do this? How could Tammy do this? Luke tries to hold my hand but I cross my arms and I stare into his eyes. They are red raw, and a bomb of a tsunami of tears waiting to explode. His smile has faded, and replaced with a sad frown. I do understand why he did it, but I can’t just let this go. This is important.
“Please, Babe, don’t go-“ Luke says, but I’m already walking off, in seconds I am at the end of the street. Luke just stays there, with his head in his palms. I furrow my eyebrows at him, to stop further tsunami-like crying. He looks so annoyed and sad, and I just want to hug him and tell him everything will be fine. But I just cannot.
I am not forgiving him…
