I feel like every time Andrea and I are texting, I am telling her how upset I am and how much I hate myself right now. I feel kind of bad about that when I realize that she's actually sad, too.

Shawn: I'm so sorry I always end up making it about myself

Shawn: I'm too selfish to see that you need help too

Shawn: and I wanna help you

Andrea: i don't need help.

Andrea: i'm fine. i can deal with it on my own.

Andrea: so i think i'm gonna go

Andrea: i'll talk to you later.

I frowned at my phone. She does this a lot; she says she's gonna go. I don't want her to leave, though, I just want her to stay.

Shawn: no

Shawn: don't leave :(

Shawn: Tell me what's wrong so I can help you

She did not respond for a long time after that. Every time I look at my phone to see if she has responded, I sigh because my notifications are still empty.

I had a terrible day at school today, and my head has been pounding all day. I texted Andrea while I was at school but not that much. However, I've been talking to her ever since I got off work at the pharmacy.

It's around eight o'clock pm and my younger sister, Aaliyah, and I are doing the dishes from dinner together.

"How come Bella hasn't came over in so long?" She decides to ask me and I drop the fork in the sink with a loud noise.

"We broke up." I finally say the words out loud, nearly choking on them. I lean over the sink with my hands on the counter and close my eyes.

I feel my younger sister wrap her arms around me and hug me. "I'm so sorry, Shawn. What happened?"

I shake my head, not being able to say anything and just hug my eleven year old sister back. When my mother walks in, she is very confused as to why we are hugging.

"What's going on?" She asks and I don't want to say the words again, so my sister talks for me.

"Shawn and Bella broke up."

My heart aches hearing those words even from somebody else and my mother puts her hand over her heart. "Oh, love I'm so sorry." she says in a sweet motherly voice and comes over to me to wrap me in a hug just like Aaliyah did.

I hug my mom back and bury my face in the crook of her neck. I'm not crying, no, but I just feel empty on the inside.

"I'll finish the dishes on my own." Aaliyah assures me with a sympathetic smile and I just nod. My mom guides me to the living room and I sit on the couch.

"Do you want anything?" She asks me, looking at me in concern.

"Mom, I don't need you to baby me or anything. I'll be fine."

"You don't look fine, honey."

I shrug. "I just want to go to sleep."

She nods and leans over, kissing my forehead. After that, I go upstairs to my room and shut myself in. I crawl in bed and under my blankets, turning on my phone. Before it opened, I prayed that Andrea had texted me.

When I noticed that she still hasn't responded, I get even more upset and I decide to text Bella.

Shawn: why cant you give me another chance

Shawn: what went wrong?

Shawn: I don't understand

Bella: Shawn, you have to move on. That's what I did, you should do it too. You don't need me. It's probably best if you just leave me alone. Forget about me. Goodbye Shawn.
