The bond between Theo and you blossomed during your high school years, where his extroverted personality and comedic charm made every moment together a joyous one. His generosity, whether in sharing meals or planning exciting trips, added a layer of warmth to your friendship. Despite knowing that Theo had discerning tastes when it came to romantic partners, you harbored feelings for him from the very beginning, choosing to keep them hidden to preserve the friendship you cherished.

After months of grappling with your emotions, you found the courage to confess your feelings to Theo, fully expecting rejection. To your astonishment, he accepted your heartfelt admission, sparking a glimmer of hope within you. However, the following day brought a stark shift in your dynamic. Theo's sudden coldness and indifference left you feeling invisible, as if you were a mere ghost haunting the periphery of his world. Weeks passed without a word exchanged between you, the silence growing heavier with each passing day.

Determined to bridge the growing chasm between you, you resolved to regain Theo's attention, even if it meant rekindling a friendship devoid of romantic sentiments. Approaching him with a mix of trepidation and determination, you hoped to break through the barrier of silence that had enveloped your relationship. However, Theo's sharp words pierced through the air, shattering the fragile hope that had sustained you.

"I'm not into some gay,okay! Just stop bothering me," his glare conveyed a message of rejection that cut deep, leaving you reeling from the pain of unreciprocated feelings. The once vibrant friendship you shared now hung in the balance, tainted by unspoken words and unmet expectations. As you navigate the aftermath of Theo's blunt dismissal, you grapple with a whirlwind of emotions—heartache, confusion, and a sense of loss for the connection that once bound you together.
