The start of an unusual friendship 2

When the ice cream was brought to their table, Andy noticed Paula staring at the strawberry flavoured ice cream with a glaring gaze and he asked her, ''why are you staring at the ice cream like that?''

''Strawberry isn't my favourite'' she answered.

''Then, why did you order for it? I will get them to change it for you'' Andy said and was about to call for the waiter when Paula stopped him.

'Don't. I want this flavour. This was Gideon's favourite flavour. He always insisted that I take strawberry simply because he liked it. Anytime we went out to eat, we only ate what he wanted. I was forced to eat what he wanted. That damn asshole, he even made me eat vegetables for a month claiming I was too fat''

''Why did you force yourself to do what he wanted? You have your own preferences''

''Because I was stupid. I thought that it didn't matter even if I changed myself, it was fine as long as he liked me''
