I think this was the most strange week I have had in my life! After descovering the german guy's name and finding his Facebook profile I spent hours thinking whether to add him as a friend or not. But at the same time I had my girlfriend from Paris (it was a distance relationship) who tried to kill herself but was so stupid that she told me exactly what time so I told her sister so that way I saved her. Also I had to get prepared to go to New York to my grandparents wedding (they celebrate their 50 years married getting married again). But this wasn't all... On Thursday my girlfriend and I had our 4 months anniversary, but as I was sick of pretending I just broke up with her the same morning.
So it was Friday and my family and I got a train to get to NY, and during the journey I couldn't stop thinking about everything, so to take my mind off I sent a message to Gabrielle (my exgirlfriend) telling her the true reason why I broke up with her. I don't think she liked it at all since her message back was "OMG YOU SON OF A BITCH!! you played me!! don't you ever dare to talk to me again!!!" But then she started asking questions and we fined up being friends.
I told her about Arthur and she said I should add him on Facebook. So I did. And he accepted 3 seconds later! My next question: should I talk to him? I mean... I'm Scout's friend and so was he. But I was too tired so I just slept.
The next day I has to wake up early and go to my grandparent's village. When I got there everybody looked at me with hate. But I was used to it. It has always been like this in my family so I was pollite, said hello and then went find my cousin Maria: the next person I would tell my secret.
- Maria... I gotta tell you something.- I told her. -But it is a secret so you can't tell anyone.- Se nodded, and I trusted her. She was one year older than me and she had always been like my big sister. I felt like I could tell her anything. So on our way to the church I told her Arthur's story... But I still hadn't told her his name... or that it was a boy.
When we where already inside the church she asked me for "her" name.
- Before telling you the name, I will show you a picture. But you gotta promise not to shout, or anything like that.- She nodded again. So I took my phone, and showed her his profile picture. At first she didn't believe me. She thought I was kidding her. But then she realised I wasn't. So she remained silent during the whole wedding.
- You should talk to him.- She said. I wasn't sure so I found an excuse to talk to him without looking desperate.
"Hey Scout told me the other day you two had been talking. Sorry if she bothered you, sometimes she can be a bit annoying but she is awesome in fact!" I said. And waited. One hour later he answered. "haha no prob'" was his answer, so I tried to keep the conversation going but it was quite hard, until he just stopped answering. I have to admit I got kinda depresses since I had my expectations very high, so I stopped talking to everyone.
