LIORA'S POV;
It’s been a full twenty-four hours at the hospital, and still, there’s no sign of Ronan. Not a phone call, not a message, not even a quick visit. I needed to tell him the truth...
Just as I sank further into these thoughts, Becky entered the room, her usual upbeat energy dimmed slightly. She was holding a bouquet of bright flowers, smiling as always, but something was off. She tried to look excited, but her eyes gave away her weariness. A lump formed in my throat as I glanced at her, knowing I should've told her the awful truth. She was my best friend, and yet, I had kept something as deep as this.
My fingers clenched the bed sheets as I thought of her boyfriend, Stanley cheating on her with my older brother’s girlfriend. My chest tightened at the thought. How was I supposed to break it to her?
I've never seen Becky, so excited about her relationship like this.
