Sheena knew things were not going well when she saw Carle’s eyes shift. She couldn’t hold it in anymore. She sighed, “I like someone. I’ve probably liked him even longer than you’ve liked Liz.”
“You…?” Carle was stubbed.
So many years? She’s liked one guy for so many years? How can I not know? It must be someone we know since it’s been this many years. But how come I never noticed her getting close to another guy?
Sheena interrupted his thoughts as she spoke again, “And I’ve watched as he developed feelings for another girl. I probably like him the same amount as he likes that girl. I hid my feelings for him and watched him love in agony. I was in the same agony as well.”
Carle’s expression changed. He could see the emotion in Sheena’s eyes, and it was directed at him! All of a sudden, he came to a realization!
Could the guy Sheena like…
He suddenly did not dare say anything. He was scared that things would get more complicated if he asked about it. He hated feeling like this. But at the same time, he suddenly understood how Elisa must have felt this whole time.
Carle suddenly had a guess about the person Sheena was talking about.
Liz must have felt a lot of burden from me liking her all these years. Maybe even fear.
Sheena put a strong emphasis on her last sentence.
Carle’s pupils trembled as he thought about what she meant.
Does she mean I should let Liz be happy?
Sheena lowered her head and stayed quiet for fear of blurting her feelings for him. She had said everything she needed to. There was nothing else she could say.
