No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Alright, he managed to break my heart a little more thoroughly.

Two hours later, after all the exams were done, I caught up with Susie and Ernest.

Susie grabbed my arm, "Licia, how are you feeling? Anything hurts?"

"No, the doc said I'm as sturdy as an oak tree, not even a scratch," I lied.

My body was adorned with multiple scrapes, but I didn't want her to worry. She was already beating herself up because I nearly drowned trying to save her.

And I knew her guilt would somehow be repaid by Ernest, but he had already given up on me.

"I don't buy it, let me see," Susie wasn't easily fooled and was about to inspect me herself.

I held her hand, "Susie, I'm just really tired, I want to get some sleep. I'm fine, really. You should head home."

"Licia, I'm not leaving. I'll stay with you, and so will my brother," Susie dragged Ernest over.

Ernest came closer, his gaze landing on my face, but this time I turned away.

"Let's give her some space," Ernest suggested to Susie.
