(I honestly can’t tell either. I thought bk its just the characters. Jaiden, you cool?)

Lilac sighed. “Can’t do one thing without starting a fight, can you, Liliana.”

Liliana glared at her. “I didn’t try to start it! You don’t mess with my last remaining family member.”

“I was kidding! Calm down!”

Silence.

“Did you hear Jet’s comment?” Liliana looked at the distance she had climbed.

“What was it?” Lilac spoke with a bored tone.

“She said, ‘Do you ever think of anyone else? You’re just like Lilac.’ “

“No, you don’t. You know, that’s totally why you snapped at her when she gave your brother a reproachful look. Don’t think of anyone, not even your brother.” Lilac rolled her eyes and swatted at a fly. She didn’t seem bothered.

Liliana’s voice went quiet, softer than a whisper. “Do you know what I said?”

“What?”

“‘I thought you were my friend.’” Her words hung in the air, clinging to nothing, yet staying in one place, echoing. The silence that followed was worse than Liliana had thought it would be.

It wasn’t only quiet, she could feel everything seeming to stare at her, open mouthed. Because what she said hadn’t been as bad as betrayal, it had been worse. She was giving up another chance at friendship.
