The heartache that was sure to come pushed against my heart, red-hot heat flooding over my pupils. If I could I would have fell to the floor from the weight that suddenly fell upon my conscious. How stupid I felt for thinking I could believe a gambler after he had already done his damage. But instead of allowing my emotions to take hold I smiled in support to my friend and pushed her towards him the gambler that stole my heart. Not because I wanted her to be hurt, but because I knew it was what she wanted me to do.
Exactly as I had predicted she smiled and blushed, happy to be in his arms. I smiled and urged her on, equally happy that my best friend was happy and she had found someone to be happy with. The gambler hardly gave me a second-look, his attention away from us girls and on his chuckling friends. The smile remained on my lips though my heart cried. Even as the day progressed I don't glance at the gambler or stay near my friend long. For every time their faces are seen the hurt is always evident inside me.
