Samuel scoffed. “Ah. Is this because the ceremony was canceled? Look, I had to leave to take care of Nora. She was hurt and nobody was there for her so I came,” he explained, although it wasn’t necessary at all.
“Okay. But Samuel, I’m breaking up with you,” I said, looking straight into his eyes.
I couldn’t see anything wrong with Nora, except for the colorful bandaid wrapped around her finger. She looked fine and perfectly clinging to him to be hurt somewhere.
“You’re being childish, Juliet,” Samuel commented, shaking his head in disappointment.
I sneered.
Samuel always thought I was childish. Whenever I asked for a bit of his attention throughout our relationship, he would refer me to someone like a child. He said Nora was only like his sister so I paid no mind even though they were extremely close. I never complained even when people laughed behind me knowing what my boyfriend and his dear sister were doing when I wasn’t around.
He was the disrespectful one and yet he had the guts to call me childish!
“Enough,” I said through gritted teeth. “You can do whatever you want from now on, Samuel. I’m letting you go.”
I walked past them when Samuel suddenly pulled me back to face him.
