Holly

My heart sank once I heard those hurtful words. It feels like my heart is being stabbed a million times by a knife. It hurts so much that I couldn't even let out tears. All I could feel is pain with a mix of sadness.

"Oh my God, Wyatt-" Sophia said and stood up but she immediately cut herself off when she remembered that she's still FaceTiming me. "Holly, I'm so sorry. I have to talk this through with Wyatt. I promise you that I will call you later, okay? I love you, please take care of yourself." She said with a worried look on her face.

I swallowed the lump in my throat and nodded my head. She sprinted out of the room, not even realizing that she forgot to end the call. I stared at the screen. All I could hear were muffled sounds of shouting, arguing and fighting.

"Just leave me alone!" I heard Wyatt shout.

I couldn't bear listening to this anymore. I deeply sighed and ended the call. I pull my legs up to my face and buried my face on my knees. I bit my lip, trying hard not to cry but I couldn't take it anymore. I broke down as I felt tears streaming down my face.

Wyatt

I sat down on my bed, thinking about all of the things that happened in the past few days. I can't bear the pain anymore. For the past few days, I haven't been getting enough sleep and I'm not eating as much because I don't have an appetite. I miss Holly so much, it hurts. Even though I'm mad at her, I'm still in love with her. Probably too in love.

It's already been a few days and I think I'm finally ready to face Holly. I realized that I was being unfair that I didn't even give her the chance to explain. She's been calling me and texting me day and night. I couldn't bear seeing her in pain anymore. Just imagining her situation right now hurts me so much because all I want for her it to be happy.

I decided to ask Sophia for advice on how to face Holly because we all know that I can't handle these kinds of situations properly. I walk out of my room which barely happens anymore because I just lock myself in my room all day, isolating myself from everybody else.

I walk to Sophia's room nervously. As much as I tried to be strong in this situation, I still can't help but feel weak.

I was gonna knock on her door but then I furrowed my eyebrows when I heard muffled sounds coming from her room.

"I don't know how to tell this to you." I hear someone say.

"What is it?" I recognize Sophia's voice.

I know that it's bad to eavesdrop but in this situation, I just can't help myself anymore.

"Sophia, I-I did something." I hear the other person say. I walked closer to the door, trying to figure out who Sophia is talking to. "I did something very wrong and it's the worst thing I've ever done in my life." My eyes widened when I recognize the voice. It's Holly's. It's been so long since I've heard her voice and I miss it so much.

"What?" Sophia said clearly confused. "What is it?" She asked, curiously.

"Just," Holly paused. "Just please don't tell this to the others yet especially Wyatt. I promise you that I will tell them soon just not now." She continued.
