CHAPTER 14 Busted

  "I'm not gonna have a boyfriend again, until I turn 18. I'm sorry, Oliver."

  I saw his face turned pale. Oliver has been courting me for a month and just this morning I woke up and realized that I should tell him that he basted.

  "Jade, it's just been what? A month?" He said languidly.

  I gulped and look around. I could see a few looking at us, in the back of my mind I needed to speed up our conversation.

  "I know it's my fault-"

  "No, Jade. I understand, really. And trust me I'm willing to wait."

  He pleaded and touched my palm. I slowly shook my head and untied his grip.

  "I'm really sorry, Oliver. I don't want to give you hopes anymore. Let's just stay as friends."

  And that's how I manage to live.

  "And what do you want me to do? Make him expect more, Olivia?" I ranted.

  We are walking in the oval one bright sunny day.

  "No! I'm just saying that you should have not let him court you in the first place. Look at him now, talking shit behind your back."
