We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, my tender heart
Maybe it's wiser to walk away and love again
With my tender heart.
We don't stand a chance
In this wild romance, oh it hurts so bad
Knowing that I'm not the one you want
I can't hold on to my tender heart

“Ai’ Beam, I like girls. Even thinking about a guy in that way gives me the creeps.”

P’Pha's words kept on repeating in my head. I pressed my face to the pillow. How long have I been loving him now? Three years. I’ve been in love with that jerk for a long time. I shed a silent tear.

I stared at the small black jewelry box on the bed. I was supposed to gift that special custom made bracelet to him with my heart. But he broke my heart with a few careless words.

Now who will even want my heart? It’s broken in to smithereens. I don’t think anyone will be able to fix it. And it hurts. It hurts because I’ve been loving him for so long.

A knock came on the door. It opened and my best friend Ming came inside. I texted him earlier telling him about what happened. He came and sat besides me. He looked at me with sad eyes.

“What are you going to do now?” He whispered.

“I don’t know Ai'Ming, I really don’t know.” I sighed. “I have been loving him for such a long time, I can’t even look at anyone else.” I mumbled to my pillow. Ming combed my hair with his fingers.

“I've heard that he’s going to Kantaphat University.” He said slowly. “Maybe if you try and get in there next year?” he contemplated. “You can try talking to him again a year later?” I lifted my head and thought about it for a minute.

“No, Ai’Ming. I told you what I heard. He likes girls. He’s straight. End of the story.” I pressed my face back on the pillow. “I don’t want to get my heart broken for the second time. I don’t want to get my hopes up, to have them crushed again.” I mumbled. “I’m done.” I said standing up slowly.

“What do you mean?” Ming gazed at me with concern.

“I’m done pining on him. I’m done crushing on him and I’m done loving him.” I said harshly. I’m not sure that even I myself believed those words.

“So what’s next?” Ming asked.

“I need to focus my energy on something else.” I ripped my hand through my hair in frustration. There should be something else I want in my life other than him.

Suddenly I grabbed Ming’s hand. “I need to talk to Daddy.” I bit my lips thinking hard.

“What are you planning?” Ming asked, bit scared at the way I’m behaving. I started nodding my head. I know what I have to do. “Yo?” Ming held my shoulders and shook me. I stared up at his worried face.

“I need to get out of here.”
