Is it over?

..and all of a sudden he let go of my hand and stopped walking with me.”What’s wrong?” I asked, knowing that this moment is one of those that love songs are written about.”Nothing it’s just that, i can’t take this anymore, you talk about your best friend Marco as if he’s your boyfriend or something, well guess what?, he’s not! I am!” Marco? Why would he ever say that?.”Marco is just a friend.Your my boyfriend, and i thought we made that clear when we agreed to go steady”He looks away for a moment, looking at the sunset’s reflection glistening above the horizon,”Yeah well, when i agreed to go steady, i didn’t know that you couldn’t go 10 min. without bringing Marco up in a convo.” I turn my head the other way.”So now what?” I ask him, trying to maintain my calmness, although inside i’m trembling and breaking down completely. ” i don’t know..I know you can’t promise not to bring him up in a convo again and i really can’t take it anymore” Before i can even think of the words, they spilled right out “we are done”
