"Kate, we are really sorry about what happened, we-we just can't help ourselves. We fell in love with each other and---"my bestfriend, ex bestfriend to be exact, explained over the phone. I stared in front while driving as I coldly interrupted Jessica's words.
"You don't need to explain that thing to me, Jessica. Drew and I are over, so you can do the things that the two of you wanted to do that you can't do because I'm still there. I will not have a say on it ever again after all, so go on. You don't need yourself to explain, I said coldly, seeming to be unaffected by the betrayal I experienced a while ago.
Jessica was silent over the audio call for a long moment before I heard her cautiously asking.
"Then... are we still friends?"
I let out a cold laugh upon hearing such a ridiculous question. The corner of my lips cocked up in a sarcastic arc, as instead of answering Jessica's question, I fired another question back: "What do you think? Do you think the two of us could still be friends after that 'thing' happened?"
"But you said you don't care about it!" she said, anxious.
I laughed and said, "I don't care about the things that happened between you and Drew. But I very much care about keeping a snake as my friend since I don't know what's the next thing you wanted to steal from me."
"Kate--!"
I did not let Jessica finish what she wanted to say, as her words cut off once again when I ended the call.
A moment of silence filled the inside of my car to give myself time to calm down, but I still did not manage to stop the tears from coming out despite my efforts to hold back. It seems even though I am different from things and will not take any care at all, I will still cry like a normal person when experiencing such things involving the betrayal of my two close friends in this beautiful yet cruel world.
With the winter formal coming up, all everybody could talk about with a smile on their faces was the dance. But here I am, silently crying in my car over the betrayal of my ex-best friend and ex-boyfriend that I have never expected to experience in my entire life. I wanted to forgive them. I wanted to give them a second chance, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.
'Who said forgiving someone is easy? '
After I am done mourning for this betrayal on this day, I have to go on and do my job as the president of the school tomorrow, signing papers, organizing events, and doing some stuff an energetic council officer should do, acting like I have never suffered such a thing that could lead me directly to depression.
Even if I experience such a thing, I will never be able to give myself time to rest.
'Being a student body council president is also really not too easy'
Everything is just not so easy for me.
I had no idea how long I had been driving there aimlessly, but I felt hugely relieved when I saw an out-of-control truck coming my way. I let go of the steering wheel as I inhaled and exhaled. Closing my eyes, I waited. Until I felt my body breaking apart because of pain. That's when I knew I had fallen into an accident.
Managing to open my eyes to look at my chaotic surroundings with sirens howling in the background, I saw a figure coming in my direction in hurried steps. It is no doubt who's footsteps are it.
I smiled gently for the first time, finally letting myself fall into endless darkness as my eyes blurred.
Silence.
'Hm?'
'Why am I still alive? '
I slowly opened my eyes and was stunned on the spot, seeing such familiar faces.
