A Love Story 2

A Love Story 2- Part 61

'LUKE! PLEASE LET ME IN!' Carol cried as she banged on the door desperate to be let in by Luke. 'I'm so sorry. I never meant to hurt you.' She sobbed. I smiled, I mean come-on when you see your worst enemy begging for mercy you can't help but smile a little. Is that just me, then? I walked over to the living room and noticed Luke sat down on the sofa with his hands on his face. I wasn't too sure if he was crying but he stayed still as I walked over next to him. 'Are you okay, Luke?' I frowned. Stupid question, I know but still. I absolutely hated seeing him like that. I could literally feel his grief and I felt so sorry for him. 'I'm fine. If its okay, I'd like to be left alone.' He mumbled. Part of me said I should listen to him and just walk up the stairs but part of me wanted to stay there with him and listen to his problems. I mean he did the exact same thing to me, earlier. I was crying, sobbing like a baby but he never left me. He listened to everything I said and after telling him my problems, I felt so much better. Being a good 'friend' I am, I have to stay with him, 'Luke, you never left me earlier when I was crying so that's what I'm going to do now.' I smiled but he just shrugged. 'You know, I heard that if you tell someone your problems, you'll feel so much better.' I placed my hand on his shoulder. 'I'm not leaving you until you tell me everything that is going on in your head.' I explained. He looked at me and smiled. 'LUKE!! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME. I WAS SO STUPID AND I NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU.' Carol yelled outside. We both looked at the door before looking at each other again. 'I just...' He paused, 'I just don't understand how she could do this to me, Alice. I gave her everything she wanted.' He hesitated before looking at me, 'Am I not good enough, Alice? Please be honest. Was I not a good boyfriend when we were together?' I stared at the ground and avoided eye contact. 'You were a perfect boyfriend.' I mumbled, 'You were the guy I've always dreamt of all my life.' Pausing for a second, I looked at him, 'You're perfect just the way you are. It's Carol's loss for losing and cheating on you.' He looked at me and smiled, 'Thank you, Alice. You never fail to make me feel so much better.' It was silent. No more banging, no more screaming, crying just silence. 'I guess she's gone.' I mumbled. 'Good. She was annoying. Tomorrow is a new day and that means I'm forgetting everything about her.'
