Warnings- angst and short chapter. This chapter might make you mad but trust the process is what I always say 🌚 cliffhanger 😏🖤

Enjoy!

The song for this chapter is Separate Ways- journey

Here we stand
Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground, I'm reaching for you, you, you



I felt a montage playing as I ran on the sidewalk. Tears couldn't stop falling, I was sure I was leaving a trail.

The moment keeps playing in my head, haunting me.

"Y/N, I never cheated on your Mother."

"The pants your Mother found that night belonged to this fucking bastard. I borrowed them when mine got ruined when I helped him change his car oil. He was having an affair with his assistant. I had no idea they were in there. I said they were mine... because he and Xina were going through a fresh miscarriage. She struggled for years to get pregnant before Gaby. And I didn't want her to go through more pain she was already suffering. I also did it for this fuck head because I thought I needed to protect him. Because that's how great of a fucking friend I was. But now if you ask me, I was so fucking stupid to do it. If I knew it would rip me apart from you. I would have never lied."

"Tell me it's not true."

"Please,"

"I'm sorry."

"You were the reason my parents divorced."

"You are the reason my family broke."

Miguel is the sole reason I no longer had a family. Not only that but he lied to me. He kept a secret from me.

He made me fall in love with him.

He made me think he fell in love with me but that's far from true.

I'm just another of his conquests.

Panties in his back pocket?

His signature move.

I was so blind to see that I was getting played.

He had no intention of telling me at all. I know it. And my dad.

Even though it's now known that he's innocent. He's still guilty of covering him all these years. Sacrificing his family for his best friend.

But I don't get a jail-free card either. I'm probably the most guiltiest one. I punished my innocent father for almost six years.

I disconnected. Erased half existence from him and all for what?

A lie.

How could he keep this up for so long?

How could Miguel do this to me? Knowing how I felt about my father. I opened up and he listened as I cried in his arms when in reality he was the reason why.

He took my father from me.

Finally stopping. I breathe hard and fast as I knock vigorously on the door, about to break it down.

I couldn't go to Todd's or Sydney's. That will be the first place they'll look for me.

And right now I don't want them to.

Not dad.

And certainly not Miguel.

I want to be alone.

So I ran to the first person I could think of.

"Y/N?" Jeremy asks in disbelief. I had cut off all communication with him for weeks because my jealous boyfriend- ex asked me to. So it's not a surprise he's stunned to see me.
