Junior Year in College
Present.
Kelvin's POV
"I love you Kel." I cringed so hard because I know I don't feel the same way.
"Jessica, we talked about this. You knew from the start that I do not have relationships."
"Seriously, this again? We have been going out for six months now and I think we need to make it official."
"I am just not in that place right now. I am looking for fun, for nothing for the long term and I told you that from the start and you agreed, so where is this coming from?
"I am just tired of being your bed buddy. I want more."
"Well, I am sorry, but I do not have more to give at this time."
Jessica pushed back the chair from around the table we were sitting at in the cafeteria and raced out of the room crying. Which is just her being dramatic. I know girls like Jessica very well and I know the reason why, all of a sudden, she wants more. Jessica is popular here but she wants to be the hit girl or maybe one of the hit girls here and dating me the 100m and 200m star would put her right where she wants to be.
I have been attending the Edna Manley University and Performing Arts since freshman year and all the girls I have passed through are all the same. I have yet to meet one girl here that sparked an interest in me. They are all the same, fake, and want to be someone they are not, so men like me use them for selfish reasons and that is to just get laid.
The one girl I have ever loved I had to rip her heart into pieces and rip mine in the process to free her for reasons unknown to her. God, it's been three years and Dae is the only woman that still has a place in my heart. I miss her so damn much and I know she hates me now, but if only I could just tell her how sorry I am and it was never my intention to hurt her. I hurt her on the one night that should have been the best night of both of our lives. It was the best damn night of my life. Being with Dae was undeniable, sexy, and unforgettable. Honestly, after a year of drowning in myself in my sorrows, my only other escape was to drown myself in another female companion hoping I could find or feel what I had with Dae. But two years later and nothing, no one can compare to her. I try not to think of her, but she is everywhere.
Dae, wherever you are, I am sorry. Grabbing my bag, I headed to my final class.
