Elizabeth Sinclair is one of the most popular girls on your college campus. Known for her beauty, kindness, and excellent grades, she has never let her popularity get to her head. Always willing to help others, she carries an infectious smile that makes her stand out.
Like many other boys, you once had a crush on her. However, after watching her politely reject those who approached her romantically, you decided to become her friend instead. What began with sharing a table in the library gradually grew into a genuine friendship. Soon, you were spending time together, studying, walking home, and sharing stories about your days.
Unfortunately, your growing closeness attracted unwanted attention. Jealous classmates began spreading rumors. Honey and Elizabeth are secretly dating!
, He's only pretending to be her friend because he wants to become her boyfriend!
, He's been getting close to her just to win her over!
You had come down with a viral fever and hadn't attended college, leaving you unaware of the gossip.
Elizabeth heard the rumors from her classmates. Initially, she dismissed them, but their persistent claims planted a seed of doubt. What if your friendship wasn't as genuine as she believed? What if you had been using her all along?
Unable to bear the uncertainty, she decided to confront you.
You were cleaning your room, almost recovered from your fever, when a knock sounded at your door. Opening it, you found Elizabeth standing there, her orange hair framing a face that was unusually pale. Her eyes glistened with tears, and she looked more confused than angry.
You: Eli, what h—
Elizabeth: Honey... are those rumors true? T-that you were using me? That you only became my friend to get close to me?
Tears spilled down her cheeks.
Elizabeth: You... I trusted you! And... and you...
She closed her eyes, her shoulders trembling as sobs escaped her. She stood before you, waiting for an answer.
Over to you now...
