"Please explain to me again why you guys had broken up because I'm so lost right now" Brennen asks as we all watch Andrea happily skip around the countertop.
"There is nothing for me to say, I just wanted to" she smiles. Everyone looked at each other surprised at the fact that Andrea was so happy after she had just broken up with her two-year strong boyfriend.
Right when Andrea had sent me the text message Colby and I were both in the car faster than lightning. We both raced home expecting to see a distraught Andrea laying upon the couch in tears as Brennen and Jeff try to comfort her but instead, we came home to reveal Andrea happily pouring herself milk.
"Andrea stop moving around your giving me a headache" Colby says rubbing his temples.
"Guys seriously it's not that big of a deal" she smiles but I could tell there was more going on behind. Andrea has always been quite good at covering up her feeling but I knew she was more than just a bubbly girl.
"All I don't get right now is that you were so in love with him two weeks ago and now you don't even want to know his name" Jeff says making her stop in her tracks. A nervous laugh escapes her mouth as she tilts her head slightly.
"No no, whatever that was, was truly far away from love, honestly I don't even know what love feels like anymore'' she replies back her voice cracking a tiny bit. ''All I really need right now is some self-love'' She adds on slightly smiling.
"Self-love?'' Colby simply says confused out of his mind.
''Yes Colby, self-love, you truly can't love someone else when you don't even know how to love yourself'' she states and honestly, she was completely right.
"No no shes got a point" Brennen randomly states catching everyone off guard.
"Thank you!" Andrea chirps and magically she was back to her bubbly self once again.
"Someone please pinch me because this all feels just like a massive fever dream" Colby whispers under his breath pushing his hair out of his face.
"I think we all need a bit of water and some sleep right now'' Jeff says making me nod my head in agreement.
"Well I really do wish but I've gotta rush off to do a job" Brennen says jumping off of his seat and walking over to his keys.
"Hey, could you by any chance drop me off at my house?" Colby asks. "And can you also drop me off at my apartment?" Jeff adds on. Brennen looks at them both disappointed before rolling his eyes mumbling a soft ''whatever'' underneath his breath.
"Bye Ava and Andrea" They all say together heading towards the front door. I say a simple bye but there was no response from Andrea.
I reach for the boy's plates and cups, picking them all up before dropping them off onto the kitchen countertop. The room suddenly grew into a deathly silence as I had started to clean the dishes.
"You alive back there Andrea?" I speak up but I hear no words back. My eyebrows pull together as I turn around to face Andrea who's facial expressions had completely changed.
"Hey, you ok?" I ask her quietly turning off the tap and drying my hands. I watch as she surprisingly shakes her head as a no. "Aw sweetheart, it's completely fine to be feeling sad about any of this" I say watching as her eyes start to water.
''Is it ok if I cry?'' she quietly asks and instantly I pull her into a tight hug. I gently pat her back listening as she starts to sob on my shoulder.
"It's ok let it all out" I whisper listening as her cry's got louder.
''H...he had made me feel so shitty Ava, he re...really did" she sobs choking on her words.
"You did an amazing job on getting out and I'm so proud of you for that" I whisper softly patting her back.
