When I saw Lisa run and jump into Enzo’s arms, I felt my heart break just a little bit. I knew we weren’t ever together, but it still hurt to see them being so affectionate with her.

I didn’t want to stick around any longer, so I left without a word and slipped into the crowd. I just wanted to go home and cry.
