Or at least I partially understood why she avoided me.

The kiss we shared when she came back was an answer to all my questions.

But it didn’t bring relief or happiness because I hurt someone I love as well.

Thus, the triangle I see in my mind.

Clearly, I have to make a choice.

But who do I chose?

Is this how Juliet feels between Romeo and Paris?

Or any person who find themselves caught in a love triangle?

How do I solve a problem like Vanessa? Or Claire? Whichever you prefer.

Or how do I solve a problem like Rose?

Right now that’s what I feel.

I am the main reason for this conflict because I am torn between two people I love.

Alas, the agony of loving.

Better yet, the agony of loving more than one.

Claire left after the incident and I didn’t even run after her.

I stood where I was with Vanessa by my side.

She was holding on to my hand, squeezing it tightly.

My father, god knows where he’s been, came out of nowhere and was surprised to see both of us with faces soaked in tears.

He must have thought that it was from the joy of seeing each other.

If he only knew what took place before that.

But the timing wasn’t right to tell him about it.

He walked over to hugged Vanessa and asked how she was.

His face was beaming and it broke my heart some more.

How am I going to explain what happened?

The whole time Vanessa and my dad were talking, I was thinking of Claire.

When my dad asked Vanessa to go outside and join the rest of the party, I went with them to look for Claire.

Vanessa glanced at me with worry but as soon we were all outside, she put on a smiling face.

Those who knew her were surprised to see that she had come.

They approached her and gave her a hug.

Kenny saw me and gave me a knowing look.

“What happened to Claire?” He said to me and from the look in my eyes, I knew he had an idea.
