"Let me go, Heath. You know it's wrong." I whispered, as he shifted himself closer towards me.
"What's wrong with me hugging you?"
I took a deep breath. "You just got cheated on by my sister who you were about to marry in some weeks! Not to mention, you loved her so much you fought against your whole family to marry her. Is that enough of a reason now?"
With that being said, he left me abruptly and I could feel him still standing behind me. "You just have to mention that now, don't you? When I'm trying to cope up with the truth?"
"It's the truth. You really were getting married to-"
"Is that the reason you're leaving me?!"
I frowned. "What?"
"I was going to marry Kiara. You didn't like it-"
"Why wouldn't I like it if you'd marry my sister?!" I yelled, my own temper rising at his random observation.
"It's simple. You were jealous."
