My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Looking at the bangle in her hands, I frowned but didn't reach out to take it. Instead, I looked at her and said, "It's a bangle from your grandmother. Even if it's to be returned, it should be me giving mine back to you. I'll give it back to you, if you are here to collect it. You don't need to give yours back to me. The bangle was my gift to you, a symbol of the association between both our families and our friendship. At that time, I thought our friendship was a bond that could never be broken by anything. But it seems that I was wrong. Even though we have ended up like this, I don't want something I gave with all my heart returned. You can throw it into the bin if you don't want it anymore."

I shut the door immediately as soon as I finished my sentence.

She briskly blocked the door from closing. She gazed at me, not passing the bangle to me but said after a moment of silence, "Arianna, thank you!"

I gave her a faint smile, but didn't say another word. I would accept any outcome no matter how things ended between us. I've known since a young age that I wasn't a person who had too much attachment to other people. Take Hendrix as an example, despite having such strong feelings for him, I still gave up on him after three years of not seeing any hope.

The same went for me and Naomi's friendship. I could understand and respect Naomi's choice in the face of the difficulties that she was facing. However, I would make my own decisions too.
