People tell me it wasn’t my fault. That it could’ve happened to anybody and that I was just a victim in the whole situation. 
  
I remember his face as he was dragged away from me. Anger. Betrayal. All of it directed towards me. Like I was the reason that this was happening. I was the cause. I can see how he’d thought that. I was supposed to keep it a secret. He’d told me this was just for him and I, that there was no reason I should tell anybody. But what I never got to tell him was that I never told anyone. They figured it out. And then they took him away from me.
 
People tell me that it wasn’t my fault; that I’m just a victim. But that’s not true. I was not the victim. And it is my fault.
