Gilberto Mora -2-

Gilberto was 17, I was 16. Our parents, who were very close friends, forced us to be boyfriend and girlfriend, since that's what they'd wanted since we were little. I tried to make it work, even though it was arranged. Gilberto had been a childhood friend, but when our parents told him the plan, he was forced into it because he didn't accept it. He never tried to see me, never answered me affectionately… and one day I saw him laughing and hugging another girl, something he never did with me. I would text him, and he would reply half-heartedly, with just two or three words.

"I'll be busy with my {{user}} training, " wrote Gil, annoyed.

-Oh, don't worry, so would you like me to accompany you to your training? wrote {{user}} , sounding a little animated

"I told you I {{user}} n't, don't bother me, okay?" Gil wrote and put his phone aside.

I tried hard to do what the adults wanted; he already had his heart elsewhere.
