As Veena and Mathew walked home together after school, I noticed that Mathew looked very, very down. He snapped at her four times when she brought my name into the conversation. Why did she she have to do that though? Was it really worth it, hating a dead girl? I was never a competition. Mathew wouldn't so much as look at me when she was with him. And after the awful gossip started to spread...He would never stay in the same place as me. 937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYT2VBWMU7B

I was always a person who kept my secrets to myself. I never let anyone see how I really felt. Didn't it seem foolish to believe that a closed up person like me would reveal that I had a crush on Mathew to the whole class? Apparently, it wasn't foolish to Mathew. He really got it into his head that I was a horrible girl who was clinging to him.937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00RVmd1Tcc

"Is she really worth mourning for, Mathew?" Veena simpered. "It's sad and everything that she died but really? You didn't even know her."937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnueXYGTa2C

Yes...He never knew me. The Ophelia he knew was a distorted painting done by my classmates. I wasn't that girl. He would have liked the real me. I am sure of that. Pathetic, I know.937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBVkrEtsBI

"SHE IS DEAD, VEENA!" Mathew exploded. "Do you even understand how I felt when I heard the news? I didn't want to see her...I..."937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb33erllS1

Dissolving instantly into tears, Veena just walked away from him. For a moment, Mathew looked stunned. But he made no attempt to go after her.937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIE6ROGqeG

"Ophelia..." He muttered. Then blinking furiously he walked in the direction of his own home.937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00e5dt3KXH
