Goodbye to Yesterday's Love

As I prepared to visit my father’s grave, my cousin, Demi, blocked my way, insisting I help her plan her upcoming birthday. When I tried to step around her, she stumbled, falling down the stairs in a chaotic twist of fate. Right then, my two best friends, Morgan and Nate, walked in. They took one look at the scene and jumped to the worst conclusion—believing Demi’s version of events over mine.

They had once been my protectors, my constants. But now, they stood across from me, siding with Demi, who they’d barely known for a year.
