ALEX’S POV
After our conversation last night, Bryan became so cold.
Its so obvious that he is avoiding me. I really think that he already given up.
I know I should be happy because Bryan followed what I wanted. But why did it seem so harder and more painful when he did what I wanted?
I’m confused. I want to approach him, talk to him … But what can I say? That he continues to rely on nothing?
‘Is there really nothing?’ I asked myself.
Why is my situation so difficult. Can’t I love someone without a hassle?
Why do others freely love whoever they want? But why is it so hard for me?
“Sis are you okay?” Liz asked.
I was in deep thought and I did not realize that Liz was with me.
“Of course.” I said. I forced myself to smile even though what I really wanted was to cry.
“Are you sure? Why does Bry seem to be avoiding you? Did something happen?” Liz asked with concern.
I refrain from crying. “Nothing.”
“Sis I know you, I know if you are really okay or not.” She said worriedly.
I just smiled again. “By the way, why did you talk to Nic?”
I suddenly remembered Nic saying that Liz talked to him.
“Well first because I feel so guilty.” She said.
“You don’t have to.” I said to assure her.
“I know. But I can’t help but to feel guilty. When Bryan and I were still together, I already notice that he is starting to like you… and you liking him. I even think that I was the first one who noticed that you both like each other.” She chuckled.
“I know that one day he will break up with me, and pursue you.” She added.
I just fell silent. I just let Liz to talked.
“That is why I know what he mean when he invited me to have sex with him. He knew that I will reject him and he knew that I will break up with him because of what he did. I know that Bryan had a hard time when he did that. But he still chose to do it because he wants to be free from me so he could pursue you. That’s why I really tried my best to move on. And that is why I entertained Gian.” She confessed.
My eyes widen. “So you mean you are seeing him just for you to move on?”
She smiled at me. “At first yes. I just wanted a distraction. But now I am starting to enjoy his company. And I want to know him more.”
“So you like him?” I asked her.
She did not answer my question. Instead she diverted the topic. “I talked to Nic not just to help Bryan but also to be fair with him. Especially when the tine comes that you are ready to choose Bryan.”
I was not able to answer. I just look at Bryan.
“Hubby!” Someone called Bryan.
I looked at the girl who called him.
She run and went to Bryan.
Wait did she just call him hubby? HUBBY AS IN HUSBAND???
