The tears that had been welling up in my eyes finally fell as I watched him on one knee in front of her.

I know I'm supposed to be happy for her.

I am.

I am happy for her.

She's my best friend.

She deserves him.

They're perfect for each other.

He's perfect.

So perfect, that every time I look at him, my heart speeds up, my throat thickens and I find it hard to breathe.

And here he is.

Down on one knee.

In front of my best friend.

She turns her head towards me, her hand covering her mouth and tears dripping down her cheeks.

I try my best to give her a warm, reassuring smile, but I think the constant waterfall from my eyes gave away my true emotions,

'Cause she suddenly turns back to the man in front of her

and shakes her head.

Everyone gasps and the male slowly stands back up with a surprised and sorrowful expression.

Only me and her knows why she said no.

It's because we both know

That he was supposed to be mine.
