Secrets Revealed, Love Lost

I’ve become inarticulate, but this rain speaks for my eyes. I stood there speechless, unable to cry, unable to say a thing to console her. She stood there, looking at me with a look of pure disbelief and betrayal.

“How could you…?” is all she could muster.

“I…I don’t know…I’m so sorry.”

“You were all I had. The only one I ever told. How could you have told HER of all people?”

“No one told me it would end up like this…”

“I could have.”

“Leya, I am so sorry…”

She gave me one last glance and walked off, leaving me standing by myself in the rain, wishing that I had known better.
