Is Sheen saying all these to get me to give up on Liz? I’ve never…
Carle balked at that thought. A memory from three years ago resurfaced in his mind.
Three years ago, the three of them had gone on a trip, and Sheena had gotten drunk. She kept holding onto his hand while giggling. She kept whispering to him and focused on him the entire time. He hadn’t thought too much about it then, but thinking back to that day, along with her reactions these few years, he had a clue what she was feeling. He did not know what to say to her.
Sheena should know that feelings cannot be controlled. How can I date her when all I think about is Elisa? Sheena must know since she has kept quiet this whole time. Did she say all that to counsel me today?
Carle lowered his eyes. He did not know what to say and had no desire to say anything.
“Give up, Carle,” Sheena said to him seriously.
Carle’s heart jumped.
Give up? How can I give up?
Although he and Elisa never had any moments with just the two of them, he couldn’t bear to give her up. He felt like he had won the lottery of a lifetime when she agreed to date him. He was elated.
“Give up, Carle. If you go on like this, you will only make things harder for you and Liz.”
