(Continues from last chapter)
"What?!" Laura said with widened eyes as she tried to process what she had just heard about her boyfriend.
"Yeah! I know it's gonna be hard for you to believe me but I swear, I'm telling you the truth" I replied, my voice was as soft as possible.
"No! It's not that I don't believe you or anything like that, I know you would not lie to about something like this. It's just that i find it weird that he didn't tell me anything about you, he pretended as if he never knew who you are" she said, with so many expressions written on her face.
But again, it was strange, why would Trent hide our previous relationship from laura? How could she not know about it? Was he planning to do something stupid again? Trent was always honest when he's committed to someone, he would always open up and would never hide anything from his significant other, he did the same with me, so then why was he being different with Laura?
"Maybe he doesn't want you to find out just yet because he's guilty!" I suggested.
"I can understand that but this isn't something he should hide from me. It's not like I would just grab my bag and dump him just because he dated another girl before me! I've also dated some other guys and he knows all about them, so then why can't he do the same?" She questioned, her frustration was starting to become very visible.
"You're right! But don't judge him just yet, he must have a strong reason because as much as I know Trent, he opens up to people as often as possible, especially those who are close to him" I assured her.
Even after what Trent did to me, the last thing I would ever want to do is break his relationship with Laura. Her eyes clearly showed how much she loved Trent, and besides, I'm just not the type of girl who would break her ex's relationship simply because he broke my heart and also because I wasn't over him. I could do anything crazy if the guy tries to talk to me again, but never will I ever try to get inbetween his relationship.
"I guess so!" She slowly agreed "I just hope he has a reason for doing all this" she added, and I gave her a little smile to lighten the mood up.
"I'm sure he does!" I assured.
"So....I was wondering if we could be friends and start over?" Laura asked, after a few seconds of silence.
"That would be lovely!" I replied and flashed her a maasive smile, which she returned instantly.
I know everyone would think that it was weird to be friends with my ex's girlfriend, but to me, that wasn't the case at all. I didn't even know why I hated her in the first place. Laura wasn't one of those salty, bratty, rude and egotistical girls who make thier boyfriend's ex's feel less than or make them feel like they were never good enough. I thought she'd turn into one after telling her everything, but she didn't, she was as normal as always and even comforted me. If she wasn't trying to get to me at all then what was the use of being so cold and arrogant towards her?
At that moment, all I wanted was to be happy. I wanted to move on with my life and not be stuck in one place till the end of time. One of the hardest things to do in my life was getting over a heartbreak and moving on, it would literally take me forever before I finally gather the courage and confidence to move on to another guy. So many people, starting from my parents and brother, said that I get hurt easily because of my kind heart, that I trust people way too much and those people always end up betraying me. I was adamant of course and refused to believe them, but with time, I realized that they were only right.
