Why were his words affecting me this much? Get it together I told myself. I'd never been in love, never had a lover. Keith, unfortunately, was my first and only everything. My first kiss, and there was no love behind any of it. It was all strictly formal.
I thought of him and Diana as well as Mike and Megan. I kind of felt jealous of them. Though I was content with being in a friendship couple, I too yearned to be loved by someone. Keith's words about me being too stiff and lacking the warmth of a woman got to me. It made me feel unlovable.
The tears kept pouring down my cheeks and I was trying to get myself to calm down. It's okay, I told myself.
"Jasmine," I then heard a familiar voice from outside the bathroom and my heart sank in my chest. It was Keith. I didn't want to talk to him or for him to see me crying right now. Perhaps, it was Edward whom I'd bumped into who had informed him that I was crying.
