I sit on my bed in shock. No way Bernard is already with some other girl.. and probably some chick he just happened to be driving by.

“Ugh!” I screamed into my now empty house. My parent’s had left something where ever they were, I didn’t even listen to what they said. I threw my head on my pillow and began balling my eyes out for the second time that day.

Around 5 o’clock I decid to pull myself together. I jumpe in the shower, do my hair and make-up and then call a friend.

“Ash? You wanna go to the mall? I need girl-time”

“I’ll pick you up in 5” She answers with a knowing smile in her voice.

Ashley had just turned 16 last month and we had been friends scince 7th grade. She was amazing and always here for me. In that moment, however, I realized she could never love me as fully as Bernard did. And I also realized that no one could love Bernard in th same way I did.

After my outing.. I’ll have Ash drop me at Bernard’s. I decide.
