Andrea's POV

"So what did you want to talk about?" I said smiling at Kimberly

This was the first time that I ever smiled genuinely at him after our bad breakup well and the first time that I looked directly at his eyes. Because  somewhere in his eyes I still see his innocent side but if I look at them again I'll see my pain, my suffering.

I didn't remember zoning out because the next thing that I knew was that I had been holding back tears that intended to fall down my cheeks.

So? well I just wanted to ask you, how'd you've been? I mean after all these years.... He said not looking at me.

Me? How had I been? I had been crying my eyes out ever since you cheated on me. I thought.

I've been just great, at first I tried killing myself but eventually came to realize that I need to move on. I replied honestly.

He gazed at me then look at the ground before tears start to swell up in his eyes

I'm so sorry. Ever since I cheated on you I tried contacting you. I even spent days in a bar drinking my sorrows away, because I let the one thing

that I love go.... He said and wiped the tears falling on his cheeks.

I was crying too obviously touched and hurt of his confession, but I stood firmly at my side instead of making my way to hug him. It was like my reaction was to ignore his pain because of the pain that I had felt for over 3 years of reminiscing of what I did wrong for him to cheat on me like that.

I froze... He froze..... on his spot we were just staring blankly at each other.
