Just a Simple Touch

"Hey Valentina how are you?" Alvaor's said 

I sighed and closed my eyes as I remembered how much I loved the sound of his voice and the way he spoke to me "I'm good and you?" 

"Fine, Estas ocupado ?" Alvaro asked 

"No I'm not busy" I lie

"Perfect because I really wanted to talk to you" 

"About what?"  I ask 

"First off I wanna so how sorry I am for the way I ended things I know I didn't give you any reason at all and I am sorry about that" He began 

He sounded sincere "So.. why did you break up with me?" 

"I couldn't take it anymore" Alvaro sighed 

I felt my heart drop "Take what?" I wasn't sure if I wanted to know the answer but I know I needed closure I needed answers 

"You never had time for me it was always about ballet and your training" Alvaro blurted out 

I couldn't believe what I was hearing "You broke up with me? Because I am a dancer?" I  tried my best to form the words correctly out of my mouth 

"No not because you are a dancer but because dance took up so much of your time, our time" He more sure to empathize the the word "our" 

"Alvaro you know how much ballet means to me and how much effort I have put in it, it's practically my whole life I can't just drop it !" I hear myself shout 

"I know you can't that's why I ended out relationship"He said calmly 

I forced my tears in "Why didn't you just tell me that you felt that why instead of just dumping me like I was nothing? You ended a two year relationship Alvaro two years !" 

"I'm sorry Valentina ok ? I am sorry that I ended it I was just tired of feeling like I was second place" 

I felt my tears pouring down my face "How could you ever think that about me ? I loved you ! I showed it the best way I could of and this is how you treat me ?" 

"Look I didn't call to argue Valentina" Alvaor stated 

"You shouldn't have even texted me in the first place !" I couldn't hear anymore of his lame, pathetic excuses  so I hung up the phone call in the middle of whatever he was saying. I can't believe he used ballet as an excuse to ending things with me, from the moment we started our relationship I told him about my commitment to my training and he still said he wanted to be with me.

I looked at myself in the mirror and some of my mascara had smeared from crying, I quickly cleaned it up with wet tissue and pulled myself together. When I felt like I was ready I opened the door to leave and went back to the kitchen were I left Maddie and Emma but they weren't there where did they go? 

"Looking for your friends ?" I looked over and saw Huston smiling at me holding two red cups in his hands

"Did you see where they went ?" I asked 

Huston's smile turned into a frown "Have you been crying your eyes are red or are you just high?" 

I rolled my eyes "Where is Emma and Maddie?" 

"You didn't answer my question" Houston was smirking at me once again, I can't deal with him bothering with me right now I am not in the mood and talking to Houston seems to be making my mood even worse 

"I don't have to answer to you" 

Houston shook his head "You are so difficult" He mumbled 

What the hell did he just say? "Excuse me?!"
