I just didn’t understand. Why now? What did they want to gain from this?
My forgiveness?
Forgiveness. Such a simple word, yet so complex.
How could I forgive them when they hadn’t given me forgiveness? How could I forgive them when they’d hurt me? How could I let go when they hadn’t let me live in peace for what happened?
Kane was right. Sebastian and I were both drunk, but I was the only one punished. I was the only one blamed. I was the one that got called names, the one looked down upon. The only bullied one.
I was the only one that suffered emotionally and verbally. I bore it all. I bore the
responsibility even when I shouldn’t have because I loved Sebastian.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I could feel the angry tears wanting to fall,
and this time I didn’t want to push them back.
I was tired. So fucking tired of being the forgiving one. Because of that night, I’d lost just
as much as Sebastian had.
No one wanted to see how guilt had eaten me up. No one wanted to see how I was breaking, how I was struggling. It was always about Sebastian and Aurora.
Always about him. Why did I have to break for us to work? Why did I have to break for them to feel good? They hurt me, but no one wanted to acknowledge that. No one wanted to acknowledge my pain.
I felt a dam bursting inside me. All the hurt I’d been bottling up, all the pain I’d been pushing down, I couldn’t control it anymore. It all came to the surface as my world came crashing down.
The howl that came from my mouth was something I’d never heard myself make before. It bounced off the walls, echoing my torment. I lashed out, my fists connecting with
anything fragile around me.
