„Feeling Christmas all around
And I'm trying to play it cool
But it's hard to focus when I see him walking 'cross the room."
Santa Tell Me; Ariana Grande

Alexandrina's voice stopped talking and the silence filled the hotel room. I was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the recorder in my hands and bluntly staring in front of me. She is in love with me...when did it happen? She was always rejecting me, not showing any intention to be with me. When did it change? I was thinking heavily, trying to understand the whole situation. And then it clicked me. Brasil. We kissed and then she slapped me...what did she tell me? For not being your number one. Of course, I'm so stupid! She basically confessed her love for me. I wanted to talk with her but then I found out about her move to Techeetah and I completely forgot about the incident. And now she is gone and I can't tell her how I really feel. A single salty tear escaped from my eye, following by a few others. I didn't bother with wiping them away, I let my emotions out.

„Bunny, I'm here! Oh god, I had so much fun, shame you weren't there...Lance?" I slightly jumped when the door opened and Mia entered the room. She stopped her rambling when she noticed me sitting on the bed like a hot mess, „what happened? Who hurt you?" she threw her bag on the ground and sat next to me, „you know, you can tell me anything. I'm your fianceé after all," she slowly put her arm around my shoulders. I sniffled and wiped the tears away. How am I supposed to tell her?

„I...I can't marry you," I admitted and Mia put her arm back to her body. She is rational, it will be hard for her, she won't be thrilled but I'm sure she'll understand.

„WHAT?!" She yelped, „why? Oh wait, don't say anything," she interrupted me before I could open my mouth, „I know exactly what is the reason," she laughed sarcastically, „Alexandrina."

„Mia, please let me explain..."

„Why can't you finally get over her?" she cut me off angrily, „SHE ISN'T IN LOVE WITH YOU! She has that Artem dude. Move on, Lance, " she snorted and crossed her arms over her chest, „why are you still torturing yourself with someone you can't have."
