Inside a bedroom, a girl was curled up at a corner with her head buried on her legs while her back was pressed against the wall.
The tiny lights that simmered through the closed curtains were the only sign that the sun had already come up and was shining brightly outside the window.
Small sounds of knocks which came now and then, are the only sounds that could be hard inside the room, accompanied by the slight sobs of the girl who had been on that position for several hours now.
" Please open the door" a soft voice came from outside the room followed by a soft hiss of a woman who had been standing there for a while now.
" Clara, I know you can hear me... please open the door" the woman pleaded again with the same soft voice; however, the girl didn't move as she continues sobbing silently on the floor

She had called Lyla, Clara best friend to know if she knows what happened to Clara, but she isn't picking up.
" Clara, please stop crying, remember if you get sick I won't be happy" She said before leaving for her room

She couldn't believe what happened yesterday, everything that happened felt like a nightmare.
The two people she trusted betrayed her. If she was told that this will happen, she will never believe.

She walked to Kevin apartment carrying a heavy bag on one of her hand. On getting to his door she wanted to knock, but she immediately changed her mind. She gently pushed the door open.
Immediately she step into the room, her whole body froze, a shiver run down her spine. She felt she was being crushed to dust. It felt like a dream but it was real.

A tears roll down her cheek.

" Babe, am sorry... please it not what you thinking" Kevin said as he tries to hold her hand, but she took a step back avoiding him.
She looks towards Lyla, the person she called her bestie, the person she shared anything with.
She ran out of the room without saying a word.
Kevin run after her before he could catch up with her, she had stopped a car, enter and it drove off.
" Why did he cheat" she asked herself
She wasn't that beautiful, but she is pretty, she had always tried her best to be a good girlfriend. Doing whatever he asked her to do without questioning or arguing with him.
So why???

" Lyla" she said as more tears flows down her eyes
I still find it difficult to believe that Lyla my bestie could do this to me
All those laugh, hugs were never genuine, and I had trusted her for years.
I smiled and get up from the floor. I stagger with my eyes so heavy. Everything around me felt strange.
I walk to the bathroom, took off my clothes and let the running water take control of me.
