Sorry for the reminder again, but there are going to be a lot of short chapters and rarely any long chapters. I feel weird calling this whole thing a book, but when it's based on a true event, there isn't a lot for me to drag out about what happened. Anyway, thank you all for reading more of the chapters and I hope you all continue on till the end of the book.
Back to the other events, throughout the time school was back and I was going through the events with Leigha and Aristotle, I noticed that Amaya and him were not acting like how a normal couple would. There were some small words exchanged between the two, but otherwise, there was nothing more than a heavy atmosphere floating in the air around them.
Kassandra and I later found out by Aiden that they broke up.
I was shocked, but Kassandra and I agreed later that we saw it coming. I wanted to hope for the best that they would work it out and stay together for a long time, but Kassandra knew that they wouldn't last.
I remember that when a couple of days later passed, he confessed to me that he never had feelings for Amaya. That he went out with her because he felt pity for her. He claimed that Amaya's feelings for him were plain for anyone to see and he just felt bad for her.
I couldn't believe my ears and knew that I must do something. Even though him and Amaya were both my friends, I knew that what he told me wasn't right. I couldn't find the courage to tell Amaya his words, so in order to still pass on the message, I asked Christian what he thought was best for Amaya since he was the closest to her. He agreed with me that we should tell her, but in fear of her not believing me or getting hurt, I asked Christian to tell her for me.
Amaya was shocked by the information given to her and confronted him on text later that day. Amaya has always been the type of person to never confront someone in person, but this situation meant a lot to her. Trying to reach him through her phone was the only option that Amaya felt confident and bold with.
He denied everything.
I don't know why I didn't see his true colors in that moment. I don't know why I let that part of him fly right over my head. I don't know why I didn't see him for who he truly was right then and there. If I had, then I would have saved myself from a lot of pain.
