Chapter 0216
“I joined college and continued working further on myself. I became unrecognizable. I
drowned in college life. The girls, parties, and booze. Life was great. I had girls all over me.
I had my pick from a large pool. Soon, I started to forget about Emma. There was no use
crying over a girl that didn’t want me when I
could have someone else‘
Ava nods her head in understanding. I know she didn’t enjoy college life. Not after she fell
pregnant at eighteen. She then became a mother and wife. She didn’t have time to be a
normal college student with no worries or responsibilities. At least I got to have that
experience before Emma appeared back in my
life.
“Everything was going great until my grandfather had a stroke and became paralyzed. My
grandfather raised me after both my parents died in an accident. He was all that I had
given; I didn’t know any other family member alive. I changed schools so that I could be
closer to him. It was easier to take care of him
that way”
Ava’s eyes widens as she swings her finger back and forth. “You transferred to the
university Emma and

“Yeah.” I simply answer. “I saw them around campus, but unlike before, I kept my
distance. I didn’t want
trouble, and besides, I had a lot going on. I didn’t have any time for meaningful
relationships except for
hookups, and that was totally fine with me. I had locked my heart after Emma’s constant
rejection. I
wasn’t willing to let anyone in”
I still loved her, and it killed me seeing her and Rowan almost every day, but I accepted it.
She simply
didn’t want me. There was nothing I could do about that.
“My grandfather passed away, and it was the most challenging time of my F***ing life. I
took a few weeks
off school only to come back to the news that the campus‘ IT couple had broken up. I
honestly couldn’t believe it. Especially when I learned that Rowan had cheated on Emma.
It was honestly unbelievable.”
I never expected that. Everyone was sure of their love. Sure that they would stay together
and get married. No one ever thought that Rowan would sleep with someone else.
“After that, Emma came back as a totally different person. It was like she was dead on the
inside. The few times you saw her outside her dorm, she looked like a F***ing zombie. I
wanted to comfort her, but I knew she wouldn’t let me near her. It was a coincidence that
my project partner turned out to be her best friend and roommate.”
didn’t want to be involved with anyone in Emma’s life. When Molly was assigned as my
partner, I dreaded it. It turns out it didn’t have to. She was actually a chill girl.
My eyes shift to Ava. She looks captivated. Like she couldn’t even remove her eyes from
mine, even if
she wanted to.
“I tried to stay out of her way. I didn’t want to be a nuisance like I had been back in high
school. I realized you couldn’t force love and Emma definitely didn’t love me”
It had been a sad realization, but a much–needed one.
“You’re right,” Ava says sadly. “If only I’d realized that earlier, like you did. It would’ve
probably saved me
from a lot of heartache.” 1

blues, Emma showed up at my dorm room and k*ssed me. It was unexpected, but it was
the best k*ss I’ve ever received. I thought it was a dream when she asked me to make
love to her, but it wasn’t she actually wanted me”
I still remember that day like it was yesterday. She had been a virgin, and even though I’d
slept with countless girls, she had been by far the best. Probably because I had feelings
for her.
“I went to sleep thinking that finally it happened. That, finally she had noticed and wanted
to build something with me. Only I had been wrong. We woke up the next morning, and
she was disgusted with. herself. I tried talking to her. I tried telling her that I still loved her,
but she said she’d been using me to get
back at Rowan for sleeping with you”
That was the first time I found out that the girl Rowan slept with and knocked up

“You can’t imagine the pain that hit me. I felt crushed. I loved her with my b*dy, only to
find out that she didn’t feel a thing. That she was only using me. The betrayal I felt nearly
destroyed me. We kept our
distance again, that is until she told me she was pregnant.”
