unrequited love

There were two friends named Mariana and Favio who were very close, but there was a problem: he had a strong attraction to her best friend. Because of his fear and insecurities about losing that friendship he valued so much, he kept it to himself. One day, they were at school, like almost every day in their senior year of high school, joking and laughing together, until at one point the tension became something unexpected due to a mistake he made.
Favio: Mariana, what can I say? I really like you. Mariana replies: Do you like me? Favio, you must be joking. I don't like you. I like another man, and you know it. I hope you're joking.

Favio - Of course I was joking, Mariana. You're the only person who trusts me and talks to me without treating me like I'm weird.

Mariana - Your joke made me laugh a lot, she said sarcastically.

Favio - Yes, of course, a joke. A few seconds later he changed the subject to jokes and banter, but deep down he felt a great emptiness that love couldn't fill.
