Taylor's POV

Two days after the graduation, and I'm still here in my bed. Sulking.

If you're going to ask 'what happened after Katie left you in the park?'

I'll say that's an easy question. I can even answer it with one word...

NOTHING.

So here I am. Still thinking about Katie, who cheated on me. And Natalia, who did what she said. She left me...

Alone...

How nice was that?

How cool was that?

I'm here. In my bed. Doing nothing.

Awesome!

Knock Knock*

Okay? Who's that?

"Are you awake sweety?" I heard my dad's voice.

I'm debating if I should let him in. Obviously, I don't want to interact with people, that's why I locked up myself here.

But he's the only one who I ask for advice. Maybe he could help now? Maybe he can say something that could cheer me up?

Okay. Let's be real. The last one is impossible to happen. He will just make jokes of me, getting old and gray alone.

=_=

But whatever... "come in, dad"

"Okay. What the hell is happening to you?" He said, literally after he turned the doorknob. Not even after opening the door. AFTER HE TURNED THE DOORKNOB! NO HI! NO HELLO!

Eh, whatevs. I even expected him to say, 'oh? You're still alive?'

=_=

"Nothing." I responded.

"Hmm? Really? Katie. Ehem. Natalia. Ehem."

See? He's such a good father. He will absolutely help me out of this misery

-_-

"Dad can you stop?"

"Of course!" He paused then, "If... I want to. But I don't so I won'!"

Him --> ^_^

"Okay. Let's be serious. What happened at Katie's party? You've been acting weird since then?" He asked.

I know that he's really serious this time so I told him everything that had happened. Both with Katie and Natalia.

********

May dad closed the door and I'm alone again. I sighed.

Why do we always get an advice that we don't actually want to do?

What kind of advice he gave, you asked?

Well, what do we get every time there's a misunderstanding, fightings, and any scenarios that can relate to chaos?

Can you say that with me? Okay...

3...

2...

1...

"Talk to them."

=_=

********

Three days later, here I am. Sitting inside a coffee shop. Waiting for guess who?

Natalia...

Kidding!

I'm waiting for Katie. My FATHER said that if I want to clear my mind, I need to TALK TO HER.

I insisted at first, saying that we already talked and it just broke me. But he said that this time is going to be different since my mind already comprehended the situation.

But I don't think so...

I chose to go at the higher level of the coffee shop, since no one knows if I could keep my composure. I don't know if I will lash out or if I will cry, or whatever.

There's less customers here. Less customers means less embarrassment.

Sigh* she's getting late.

I don't know if she did this purposely or she just really didn't care for me to show up in the designated time.

Two and a half hours later

"Sorry. Traffic." Katie said.

I purposely picked this location since it's near at their house, so she won't have any excuse not to come. Well, she came. But LATE. Because of "traffic".

"You don't have to use a car Kat. You can walk. This is literally a 5-minute walk from your house!"

"I went somewhere that's why I need the car! Are we going to talk or you're going to lecture me about being late?!"

I just rolled my eyes. "Okay. Let's talk---"

"And it's 'Katie'. Not 'Kat'."

I didn't said anything after that. I just looked away. This is a torture.

"Okay? What do you want to talk about?" She asked.

"Uhm. How about we start talking about YOU cheating?" I countered back after I got my composure back.

"Me? Cheater?"

"Uhm, yes? With Andy? Did you hit your head and suddenly forgot about what I saw at the restroom after your party?"

"Oh, yeah. I 'cheated' on you." She said then rolled her eyes. She shifted in her seat. Seeming uncomfortable. "What do you want to talk about it this time? I thought we're over it. Can you just forget that? You're such a drama queen." She said in a 'judging' tone.

"Forget?! You hurt me and tell me to just forget all of it?!"

"You're hurt huh?" She said in a mocking tone.

"YES! I WAS HURT!"

I saw how emotions vanished in her face. Energy went low so fast. That's a sign of sadness right?

"Was, huh? Already in past. You moved on so fast I see. Or did you really have to move on? Maybe that was just nothing to you."

"What the? What are you talking about? Don't play the victim card to me because we both know who got hurt!"

"We both know who got hurt?"

"Yes! Me?! Duh?!" I'm lashing out. This is what I'm talking about. Choosing the second floor of the cafe was the greatest thing that I've done in the past few days.

"I'll agree with you on that. Maybe you got HURT. But I'm the one who's HURTING. STILL. HURTING."

What the? What is she talking about?

"Hurting? Did Andy cheat on you AGAIN? Did he chose his other sluts over you?" I know I'm an assh*le. But I can't stop it. I'm mad because of what she did to me.

But when I saw a tear fell from her eyes, I stopped.

"Hey. Okay okay. I'm a d*ck. I know. I'm sorry. But I'm serious, did he hurt you?" Is it bad that I care for her despite of what she did to me?

I don't know.

But I know that it's not bad that I'm thinking of punching Andy right now.

"Did you really believed that I can do that to you?" She said while trying to control her tears.

What is she talking about? What is she trying to say?

"what?" I whispered.

She smiled. A sad smile. A kind of smile that I wouldn't want to see from anyone.

"I can't play it anymore." She tried to smile again.

"What are you saying?" Is this one of her acts again. I don't know what's genuine or not anymore.

"Do you want to know the truth?"

I don't know, but after she said those words, I became nervous. I don't know what to expect. But I badly want to know...

What truth is she talking about?
