Jeez, rejection stings...
Specially from a friend you've loved your whole life.. It really sucks. And to see her with someone else.. another friend of hers, hurts even more. You had approached her in the same bar you talked at in the Wild East to tell her, but when you did.. She seemed.. bothered.. She responded by saying she didn't return your feelings. Not that she couldn't, she didn't. And it hurt.
After the painful rejection, you had ran off. You swore she'd had callen out to you but you were gone, she didn't give chase.
Even a week after, it felt like Starlo was shooting you nasty looks, like he had some issue and seemed to hate you. But you payed not much mind to it. Eventually opting to lock yourself away for a week till you felt better.
You spent a solid 3 week locked in your room, sobbing yourself to sleep because of how much it had hurt. Not one of them seemed to bother coming to check on you, which made you feel more lonely than you ever have. Living by yourself was worse enough... But this.. This sucked.. You felt like some 8th grader who's crush just turned them down. Even if you are in your late 30s. Emotions suck. As always.
