Dear World,
When Aaron leave me alone in the hills, I called Ethan and he came to me that day. We talk about what happened and I said my thanks to him for telling me beforehand about what Aaron has done. Otherwise, Aaron will get away from cheating on me and it will be another hurt feeling if I knew about it later.
I assured him that I'm not blaming him for the breakup because it was Aaron who broke up with me. Plus if Aaron, did love me he shouldn't have cheated. Dad once told me that breaking up is okay. A relationship that doesn't work is okay. I'll be over this.
Ethan dropped me home and he didn't pull over in front of our yard because I don't want dad to know that it was him who brought me home yet. I think I'll tell him about the breakup tonight and tell them about the other information later. I tell my parents anything and I don't usually keep a secret from them.
Just as I was saying goodbye to Ethan I had the urge to kiss him. It didn't help that he just stared at me with eyes full of emotion I can't fathom. The next I knew is that we leaned in together and our lips met.
Today, I don't know how to face Ethan. I barely even saw him and now it feels like he was the one who is avoiding me since the breakup. But I got a text from him that he would like to meet in the park. Mom and dad weren't angry at Aaron about the breakup but they showered me with warm hugs and kisses. I swear there was really something in those hugs and kisses.
I walk Charlotte home today, like usual but I didn't go straight to the bus stop afterward. I went into the park and waited for Ethan. I texted him that I am already waiting on one of the park benches.
After five minutes of waiting there were still no signs of Ethan. I was about to text him but someone called my name. It was Aaron. I just watch him glued on my feet while he was making his way toward me. He smiled shyly but I don't know why I'm not really into him right now. He's still very attractive as always, his chinky eyes are really something but then again I'm no longer wowed by them. Yet the feelings for him came in and it was familiar.
"Hi." Aaron greeted.
"Hi, Aaron. What are you doing here?"
"I was actually following you since you came out of your school with Charlotte."
"I'm not going to think that it's creepy. I will just presume that today is the first day that you followed me."
"I've been following you for the fourth time." he admitted.
"What for?"
"I've been meaning to talk to you, Sandra."
"We're talking now so might as well say it now."
"I broke up with Katie and I want you back, Sandra. Promise I'll do better this time."
"Aaron, thank you for being so brave in telling me this but I already made myself clear that I don't want you back."
"Sandra, I know that you still have feelings for me. You can't forget that right away."
"You're right. I still have feelings for you. I still miss you and I still cry myself at night. But no, I don't want you back."
Aaron was about to argue when my phone rang. I look at the caller ID and saw that it was Ethan who was calling. Without looking at Aaron, I answered the call and talk to him.
Not so long later, Ethan then came to us. Brows furrowed and all tense.
"What took you so long?" I asked hanging up the phone.
"Ashton called while I was about to drive up here."
Aaron then cleared her throat and we both look at him.
"So you have yourself a rebound relationship, Sandra." Aaron accused.
"Sandra and I are just friends. She can have some guy friends you know." Ethan said, "I heard about the cheating stunt that you pulled off. Don't start with me right now or I'll call up all the boys that want to beat you. You see as much as I want to waste you all by myself, Sandra has other guy friends that want to get back at you."
"Ethan, not this again." I said.
"You're lucky that someone doesn't want you wasted. Come on now, Sandy. Ashton called earlier because he's at home and invite us to gather."
We leave Aaron behind and Ethan lead me to the parking space where he parked his car.
Always,
Sandra
