A week passed by as Sarah was being hesitant to share the recording with me. She was trying to discern if it was good for her to review this. The week after, we were given group assignments, and were supposed to be two students in each group. It happend that, the lecture decided that I should work with Charlotte. I enjoyed working with her. I also saw the other side of her, she loved people, was kind to everyone. And she was a devoted church girl. I got to know some of her family members as they would video call her in the middle of our group discussions. I realized that, whenever I am with her, I laughed a lot, just like when I am with Sarah. The other day, we decided to do our group discussion while grabbing a cup of coffee. So we went to her favorite coffee shop. Thando was next to that shop where she was getting some noodles. As she passed by the shop where we were, She saw us through the window and we looked like a happy couple. All smiles on our faces. She got jealous, though she wasn't sure about me, but that day, she got jealous. She went back to her place furious and felt betrayed. As she was in her room, she could not sit still, she paced back and forth for a while, had a terrible headache. Her face was all sweaty as if someone having an anxiety on exam failure. She began to ask herself questions, as to whether this was all because she was truly in a unrequited love with Cedric. Then she called her boyfriend, and they went to that same coffee shop where we were. For all the time they were there, half of that time she cried while Frank comforted her. He didn't know what was happening and at last he asked her. "Thando my love, tell me what is going on. What's troubling you?" Knowing that it was unwise to reveal her feelings about Cedric. She lied and said it's family issues that is making her cry. She didn't tell Charlotte anything, but you could tell that there was a bit of a tension between the two. She would chose to spent time with Cindy without Charlotte knowing. The other day, we were coming back from the coffee shop. It was myself, Peter, Sarah and Charlotte. We happened to bump into Thando and Frank. I didn't know that the two were dating. I looked at Thando with a gaze that shows that there must be something going on, while Thando could barely look at me. She chose to look downward. But Frank noticed something suddenly and became suspicious. We greeted them and we continued on our way. Sarah said to me, "Cedric, I thought you like Thando. But, you see she is already in love with this rich, handsome dude, who is also your rival." What she said got into me. It disturbed me a lot and I was lost in my own thoughts for a while thinking, can this be true. So I am in a love triangle with this guy. Charlotte added on top of Sarah's words and said, "they have been dating for a while now. The other day, Thando spoke ill of you, she is my friend but I didn't like what she said." Sarah thought, because I don't want Cedric to fall for this girl. This is a great opportunity to reveal that audio. So she took out her phone and played that audio. Everyone said, "oops, we thought she is a nice girl, but her words are too much. She should just have said, I have a boyfriend unlike to compare and use such hash and hurting words." To be frank enough, I was hurt with the words of the person I have been daydreaming. I am sure as you hear my story you will be like, Ah just let it go and move on. But, those words made my past experiences resurface. Thando was devastated when she discovered that her friends overheard her conversation with Cindy. She wanted to explain herself, but she didn't know how. Meanwhile, Cedric was struggling to reconcile the Thando he thought he knew with the Thando who spoke so negatively about him. Few days later, I was walking down the corridors going to the lecture hall. I came across Thando with Frank and the two seemed to be arguing. When Frank saw me, he wasn't happy and so he came to me and said, "tell me what is going on between you and Thando. You guys have been in a relationship? So Thando is dating you and me at the same time? Were you the reason she was crying the other day?" He spoke these words with tears dripping. His voice cracking, and you could tell that he was deeply devastated. Not only that, he was also deeply in love with Thando. I felt compassionate for Frank after seeing how madly he was in love. So understanding how painful that is, I knew I had to tell him the truth. "Frank, you know, we are rivals, and dating your girlfriend isn't good. To be honest, I am not dating your girlfriend, I only had a crush on her. So nothing is happening between the two of us. Just listen to her and know that she is madly in love with you too." I didn't know that what I said to Frank touched Thando. She looked at me, smiled and without a word but only moving her lips, said "thank you." From that day onwards, I became close to Frank and we could go out together for a cup of coffee. He was also into ice skating, and at times he would invite me to join him. 3 weeks later, Frank was going to meet up with Thando over lunch. As he was going there. He was stopped by Cindy, who said she had something to tell him. So they went together to a coffee shop that was across the street, few blocks from the restaurant where Thando was, while waiting for Frank. That day, was the day that Cindy showed the other side of her. She said to Frank, " Frank, do you know that your girlfriend has mixed feelings about you. She is totally confused again. She is into Cedric again while she is dating you. Who does that." She raised her voice as she spoke those last words. Frank remained silent, while his heart was beating fast, and was burning inside with anger. She continued, " I wanted you to know the truth about your girlfriend. She is not good and faithful as you think she is. Why don't you date me in stead."
