After School [AMBW]

12- Reality Check

My heart began to feel like there was a brick inside my chest that just shattered. I let Matthew get in my head. Would Jonathan have left if I gave it up the first time? Did he actually like me from the beginning? If Matthew knew, why did he still do that to his best friend?

| ik u don't want to talk to anyone, but I'm

| both need someone to talk to.
Josephine🧚‍♂️
| I heard about what u did an it was pretty bad
| But Im always here for you if you need to talk

Even with all this, she still helped me. We both explained our problems in depth with one another. It was nice to have someone truly by my side.

M1 tried to call and text me, but I decided even if Jonathan was lying, I should take a break from dating.

But one morning, I started feeling sick...
