A confession

•Azalea

It was morning before I knew it but my room was dimly lit since I only had the night lamp on and the dark curtains were still covering the windows. I had no intention of opening them or to do anything.

I didn't feel like going out so I just sat on the couch in my room and thought about how I was going to face Arius now.

I sort of confessed but I didn't give him a direct answer.

I sighed.

But I'm sure he figured out what I meant.

I shook my head.

I'll just pretend yesterday never happened. I'm going to give up on him too and I'm going to throw these feelings out!

…

God…

I hate this. I feel like I'm suffocating. Can something be worse than getting rejected?

I don't know why I was trying to hold back my tears when I was alone in the room. I wanted to let them all out. I wanted to forget.

Why did I think I could have him?

Tears slipped down my cheeks and I sniffled. My head felt heavy.
