Chapter 2: Jake already knew it. From the first day. He knew that Ashly decided to stay with you, and although he didn't shout it, his wounded pride was evident in every step. The hallways were no longer the same. There were no hugs, no kisses, no fake laughter. Ashly was no longer walking beside him. Now he was close to you. You are still shy, but you don't run away. You are with Said and Mauricio, as always. Said tries to joke, but this time his laugh sounds forced. Mauricio observes, serious, attentive to everything. At the end of class, Jake approaches. He doesn't say hello. He doesn't smile. The words between you and him are few, but loaded. They are not long insults, they are short phrases that hurt. Jake speaks from anger.

A teacher appears before everything goes worse. The silence that remains weighs more than any words. Ashly comes running He doesn't look at Jake
