"I see him as a good friend...,"
"That means you don't even love him?" Gabrielle interrupted sharply.
"Steph, you are well aware of just how much Clark loves you. What you are doing to him is wrong, you know this right?" Gabrielle asked seriously.
"I am doing all this because I know just how much he loves me. This the only way I can repay him for loving me before I leave," Stephanie replied honestly.
"You are leaving? Where to?" Gabrielle asked ignoring the other part of her sentence.
"Leaving? Did I say I am leaving?" Stephanie asked. She felt like hitting her head hard for almost spilling the beans.
"Yes, you did so stop pretending not to know what I am talking about," Gabrielle said seriously, seeing that Stephanie was trying to feign ignorance about what she was talking about.
"Gab, I am not going anywhere so stop getting mad. I am not going anywhere without you," Stephanie lied, embracing Gabrielle.
