A Dumb Love Story

The Breakup

"Hey can we talk?"
"No." I stare into my phone thinking I've done something wrong. As I start to think of ways I might have done something wrong I receive a picture of her best friend and her kissing. My knees gave out, I ran to my room. "Why?! What did I do to deserve this?" I ask myself as tears rush down my face. "I'm sorry, that was mean." She replied. I called her. "I'm sorry we were just kidding!" She said as I'm sitting on my bed. My face full of anger and sadness. "What did I ever do to you to deserve this?" I mutter into the phone. "Nothing we were joking!" She was lying. I knew, she lied a lot when we were dating and I grew to understand when she was. I just didn't want myself to be right. "I see your family likes him more than they ever liked me." I tell her. "Yeah they do." She said to me. I hang up the phone and all the texts flutter in like birds at a wedding. "Please, I'm sorry."  "Maybe I should just end it all. I don't wanna live anymore." I say. "Don't kill yourself." She replied. "Why? When the only woman I loved just ripped my heart out? How long?" I ask. "He just asked me out. I told him about you." "Fuck it! Go date him! He probably will treat you better anyways." I tell her. "Please I take it back. I love you!" She begged me to take her back. But I knew she would just do it all over again. I thought for a moment. "Ok one more chance. I'll let you pick. Me or him" I hung up the phone. I waited on that dreaded call. "V-vvv V-vvv." I answer the phone. "I picked him. I'm sorry. But I wanna stay friends." "I can't stay friends with you." I tell her. "Why not?" "It will hurt more if we were. I'm going to block you at 10 tonight. If you change your mind call me before then." And I hung up the phone. Realising what a mistake I made I tried calling her back. She blocked my number. She was gone.
