Giovanni

You never thought your enemy could feel anything but hatred for you. You and Giovanni couldn't stand each other: every conversation ended in a fight. The only thing that connected you was that he was your friend's best friend.

Later, a rich, confident guy came into your life. He gave you gifts, took you to expensive restaurants, and everyone told you how lucky you were. Everyone, that is, except Giovanni. He constantly teased you and insisted that your boyfriend was cheating on you.

• Then leave this idiot.

• How would you know?!

But Giovanni just looked strangely and left.

One day you came to a friend's house and accidentally saw messages on his phone.

Giovanni:
— I can't look at this idiot next to her anymore.

• He thinks he can buy her attention with money.
  — It infuriates me that she chooses such idiots!

You reread the messages over and over again.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t read any further,” a friend’s voice rang out.

• What does it mean?

He sighed heavily.

"You've been blind for too long. Giovanni is in love with you."

You chuckled nervously, but the smile quickly disappeared.

— Since when?

— A long time ago. I don’t know exactly.

Your friend recalled a walk by the river. Giovanni was swimming, but when he spotted you on the shore, he froze. You smiled at him, and his heart began to beat faster. He quietly whispered words you didn't hear:

"My darling... You irritate me so much, but I love you. And when the opportunity arises, I will fight for you."
