Give Love

Regret — How could she let her feelings be on the top priority list? She didn't even know her best friend was already suffering. For a long time, she apologized for any culpability or negligence that she has done. She felt like her heart had been ripped out, leaving her lifeless. She could never forgive herself for her own blunders. Hollow, pained, trying to keep her head high but dying inside whenever something reminds her of her past, and she could never ever forget about it.

Junior High. That's when it all started. I, Alexandra Daniels, had a huge crush on Matthew Kennedy Janssen since Grade 3. But I knew he didn't felt the same way for me since I was just another "ordinary" girl who happens to live next door. I doubt he even knew that.

Then there's Melissa Adams, my best friend who happen to crush on him too. All she talked about was how great he was. Of course I kept quiet, not wanting to say that I had a crush on him too. But when we became sophomores, that's when I found out that he and Melissa had started dating, I felt my heart break. I smiled the same fake smile ever since the 3 of started hanging out. Sure Matthew and I grew close, but only I realized that we had more similarities than him and Melissa.

One day, one night. That's when it all broke loose. A false rumor had started between Matthew and I. The next day I stepped inside the school, I received a slapped from Melissa. She threw in a lot of harsh words at me, telling me that I was just another slut, a self-centred jealous person.

Matthew didn't mind since during the hard times, he would comfort me. Sure, the most amazing thing that ever happened was when he told me he loved me. Our relationship became a roller-coaster, but we still fought for one another knowing that our love was the only one that's keeping us going.
