Leah

You had a friend, Leah. She was like a sister to you. You thought she would never betray you or do anything bad. You told her absolutely everything and told her that you liked your friend Mark. You had met even before you met Leah. You didn't feel anything for him until 8th grade, but then your feelings came on their own, and you couldn't tell him, afraid that it wasn't mutual. You, of course, told Leah, and without even noticing, her eyes lit up. You noticed how Leah started spending a lot of time with Mark. You didn't understand why she did this, because she knew you liked him. You were hurt, but you kept quiet. One day in May, you decided to confess, because you realized that if you didn't confess now, you never would. You gathered all your strength and went to tell him. You went to school and saw him right at the entrance. You were about to go over to him, but then you saw Leah.
"Darling! Hello!" Leah cried, throwing herself into his arms. He hugged her, and they walked to school, leaving you standing alone. Everything around you grew quiet. You didn't understand: why? What for? How? You felt tears start to stream down your cheeks from hurt and pain. How could she? You didn't understand...
