The Kiss that Sparked it All

Patricia looked stunned. Balfour had never been this serious with her before.

“But I really love Theo. Balfour, you’ve always known…”

Balfour frowned, “Love takes two to tango, not just you. If he doesn’t love you, all your efforts are in vain. Let him go, and let yourself go too”

As Patricia’s eyes reddened and tears streamed down her face, she asked, “What’s wrong with you, Balfour? Did Ellinor say something to you? You’ve become so cold and indifferent, don’t you care about me anymore?”

As he watched Patricia’s tears drop, Balfour felt annoyed but also a bit of heartache. He thought maybe he was too hard on her.

“Alright, stop crying. I’m just looking out for you. You’re losing yourself over Theo, you know?”

Balfour patted Patricia’s shoulder to comfort her.

With tears in her eyes, Patricia looked at Balfour, “But I really love Theo! Balfour, I can’t control myself…”

Balfour rubbed his forehead; he felt a headache coming on.
