❝...You made me hate my own reflection

Question every choice I make

So I could try to be perfect

But I will try to be fake

So forgive me 'cause I really could care less that

This world has changed me

So you know when you ask me

Who are you now?

Did you say what you want?

Don't go back to the start

I'm asking, who are you now?

Did they break you apart?

Won't you fight back for what you want?❞

~ WHO ARE YOU NOW

-----------

"Yes. The Person I'm talking about, The Girl I used to Adore is...." Cole took a deep breathe as he wipe the tears in his eyes "is......

You." Cole finally said and looked at me right in the eyes. "I adored you, so much it kills me to know that I'm being compared to you. I know I'm nowhere near you, hell I know I never will be but I still wanna be friends with you. Thanks to that asshole for fucking up with my head. I''m so messed up am I? Ha ha, I look so pathetic right now. Go on! Laugh at me I don't fucking care anymore." He just kept on sobbing while I stare at him with wide eyes, I didn't know what I did but the next thing I knew I pulled him in a tight embrace. His head resting just below the crook of my neck my arms tightly embracing his Body, there I let him cry. It's heartbreaking to see this side of him, all those times I only see him as an arrogant, Asshole prick because of what he's doing to everyone and to me but it's because I don't know the real him yet. Who would've thought Mr. Badboy is badly broken inside and needed to be fixed? "Go on, cry as much as you want. I won't judge, I won't laugh and never will I tell a soul about this. All you needed right now is someone to lean on, someone who would listen wholeheartedly to your story and a Friend who would care for you. I can be one right now so Go ahead and Cry, till your heart can't shed anymore tears." I comforted, I don't know but seeing him cry like this breaks my heart into million tiny pieces. I felt warm fluid flow down my cheeks, I'm crying too. "I know how it feels to be compared to the person you adore more than life itself, I've experienced it. What's worst is that they blamed me for her death." I felt Cole aroused his head and Looked at me straight in the eyes, "Blame? Death? What do you mean?" He asked confused. "I have a Little sister. She's my Family's Root of Happiness, Everyone Adores her and I adore her. She's like the Light in my Life when I'm lost in the Dark, she makes me smile even during all the Pain I'm facing. You see My Grandmother, my Dad's mother wasn't quite fond of my Mom. She hates my Mom because My mom wasn't really rich during her teenage years, hell she just have a part time job as a waitress in a restaurant to support her studies since her Parents died when she was 6. Dad met her when she accidentally tripped on her foot in front of Dad's table, so Cliché I know. Mom got kicked out of her part time and she cried like a baby, Dad found her and comforted her and offer her home and a job. She worked as my Dad's personal maid. But, as days grew older and nights grew shorter and feelings grew warmer, They fell in love. What can you say? They have a great bond even as for a maid and a rich son. As they grew up, My Dad graduating and taking over my Grandfather's company and My mom well let's say that she entered someone else's company despite Dad offering her a position in his company. Mom declined due to embarrassment, saying that Dad has helped her a lot already and that she wanted to experience standing up on her own. Mom loves Dad more than Dad loves Mom, they haven't had communication for 3 years. It's heartbreaking, Geez. But, Alas! Fate loves them so much that they met again, it's really too cliché because they met in the same restaurant in the place where Mom used to work. Let's skip, can we?" I said taking deep breathes, I've been talking for what seems like forever. I saw him nod and that's my cue to skip and continue, " They Fell In Love and Got Married but apparently the Witch disapproves, but that doesn't stop my Mom and Dad from getting Married, my Grandmother and Grandfather was fuming with anger. Their only son married a woman god knows where she came from but, I admire my Mom for her patience and determination. She didn't let anything get in the way of her and Dad's love, that's How I was created. I don't wanna tell the details how! Ew!" I said with a fake disgusted tone, this made Cole chuckle. "Like how they make Love and Have Se-"
