peculiar love

just friends

《Olive's Pov》
I ran to the kitchen controlling my tears but however hard i tried, some of them still managed to roll down my cheek.
I tried to forget about it no, i wanted to forget it. I needed to. Everything that has happened and my feelings towards him.
I walk back to his room slowly for the first time. Usually i would be excited to be in his room but i was so embarrassed i did not know how to face him now.
When i reached his room, he was gone. I looked out of the window and saw him talking to Emma and he was grinning. It was not a smile but a grin. My heart ached at the sight of them together. My brain was screaming at me to give up but my heart whispered do not give up and i listened to the whisper despite the pain i have been through i decided to continue the misery hoping that one day it would stop even though there was another way to stop it but i chose the harder one. The one my heart told me to choose.
They look so cute together i thought to myself. He is only happy when his with Emma everyone could see that but i chose to ignore it and lie to myself.
I placed the cup of tea on the table and left his room knowing i would be sad for the rest of the day. I saw Enoch walking up the stairs while i was returning to my room. He was smiling to himself, that was a very huge smile. I wanted to avoid him but unfortunately he looked up and saw me.
"Hey Olive!" He said frowning at me but the was a bit of joy in his voice which made my heart break. Being with Emma really changed him. It made him happy which no one could. I start to think that him being with Emma was a good things and i should not be so selfish to only care for myself. Afterall him being happy makes me even happier. The joy of seeing him smile but the pain in knowing its because of someone other than me.

I ran off to my room and acted as if i did not see him. It was the first time i ignored him and it did not feel good at all. It ached my heart to do so Enoch do that to me all the time and he does not feel anything so its pretty clear that he has no feelings for me.

When Olive went down to make tea, i went to the garden to get some fresh air. I met Emma there i started to talk to her. Gosh she looks even prettier than before i could not stop staring at her looking at her makes me so happy but she only treats me as a friend or not even a friend i mean why would she want to be friends with me? I walk up the stairs towards my room thinking about her beautiful smile that made me smile unknowingly. I saw Olive living my room and called her i was very sure that she saw me but for some reason she ignored me.
