Lizzie
He's also a broken victim...Just like me..
No one will ever love me, Everyone always leaves. They gave up on me, Leaving me expecting. I'm just a lonely cloud
I'm not enough, My love and efforts aren't always enough. I tried all of my best, I always failed.
"Lizzie, You don't deserve him okay?" Chris said while looking at the backmirror in the car. We were on out way to his place, We will have a movie marathon.
"I know.." I whispered, I'm being depressive again.
I saw their worried eyes. A tap on my shoulder made me react.
"It's going to be okay" The man I just met said.
Maybe I'm just with the wrong people..
"Can we get ice cream?" They smiled at my question. Chris immediately turned the wheels to the next convenient store.
I volunteered to buy but..Aaron insisted to come.
"Do they have chocolate?" I asked Aaron, who's looking into the freezer.
"Yes they do" I clapped my hands, He picked two family sized containers. After that, I also bought chocolate chips cookies.
Chris, as usual, mocked me and Scarlett about the cravings but we dismissed him quickly.
It was a really joyous moment..
I felt happy for real this time..

At Chris' apartment, Chris and Scarlett were in the kitchen, She's helping him wash the dishes. They left us alone in the living room with the ice cream and cups.
I scooped him some. When I handed it to him, I saw how surprised he is. It made me ask
"You okay? You looked kind of shock about the ice cream" I looked at him, While opening the chocolate chip cookies.
"I'm just not really used to this kind of gestures" I saw him mix the ice cream to form soft peaks.
"It's because of what happened, right?"
He took a bite before answering, I scooped my cup as well.
"Yeah, five heartbreaks really got into me" He answer made me stop scooping my ice cream.
"Five?" I can't believe it, He's really got something worse.
"Yeah...I'm that bad" He sighed like it was nothing.
"There's many girls out there, and also maybe they're not the right person" I tried cheering him up, Lighten up his mood.
"Maybe one day" He smiled
Chris and Scarlett came back. They played comedy, Making us laugh is there goal for tonight.
They succeeded, It made us bond with each other. They distracted us from the pain, We smiled.
This is good process. If we continue this, We'll move on quickly.
"Aaron, Tell us what happened?" Scarlett became a therapist within a minute.
"I saw her with someone richer than me, She just left..." Aaron's voice crack a little
"How about Lizzie?" Chris asked, He really wants to beat up Neil.
"I saw Neil...in the bed with the stripper" I explained, scooped some ice cream again.
"They're disgusting people that doesn't deserve love" Scarlett threw her fist into the table, before saying 'ow'
"You two are great people, Don't let them tear you down" Chris said, smiling at our start of moving on
