(Mint POV)
so I keep it in mind what should I have to tell him about her. I will definitely not share sensitive data. I told him what's necessary. so at the park bench, I let him sit and we were about to start our the discussion.
"so what do you wanna know?"
"Phu..."
he takes a deep breath. and then exiles it out. it was the indication that he was ready to speak his thought. I was already prepared. and was waiting for his questions.
he swallows his saliva and looked directly into me. and asked
"P... can you tell me about her past relationship?"
and what he just asked was that I wasn't guessed at all. m... what should I tell to him now. should it be right to tell him the reason behind it. or make a fake story about that. I can't tell an untruth or I should tell him the truth he is also a friend and for what I have observed him for past few months he is not a kind of guy who stalks or means any harm to anyone. and he is a nice guy. I froze while thinking all these. I am sure that he saw a doubt through my facial expression. that was giving him a suspicious signal that I don't believe him. that's why he briefly let down his head and speak to me.
"P, I know you are a close friend to her. and I know you care about her. a guy like me who you only knew about some months before is not easy to believe or share something like this. I can understand."
his words may me looks simple but those simple words were like a full proof making a statement directly, he was well aware of that he can't make any lies in front of me (her best friend) if he wants to get the girl's heart.
and... meanwhile, if I can see through his situation. to be in a friend zone already his own fault. (who the hell has gone say that straight to a person whom you knew just for a few months😑) that was a lame move after all. and I know it is not easy at all be in that zone like forever. I can fill myself in his shoes.
similarly to my pain. but whatever I decide to tell him the truth. after all
he is a fellow her friend similarly as I am. so telling him the truth will not harm her.
and because being so close to her I can't Dennie what happened with her, I was not aware of. but I should tell him in limits.
"I know you like her Freddie. but understand this thing I'm her friend so I can't call the things in details. I am not against you at all. in fact I also want her to be happy. if you become the cause of happiness I would be better. and it is only possible if she wants to get out of herself from that vain. and let someone who she deserves to enter inside her heart. if she chose you there is no doubt she will be happy forever."
I wanted him to concern him for the situation so I tell him briefly.
the story begins with the phrase she did to.. and end with she shouldn't. I take my final words ends like this.
"she deserves better."
I can see Freddie's eyes were now concern and look additional caring. I do believe he will make her break her shell and can make her able to love again.
After what happens after her breakup has made her a strong fragile type she chose to stay away from it in order to protect her heart from shattering. but her shield is the most harmful thing. she is keeping herself from loving but it results in only a deadly pain of being alone in this life. it is eating her heart from inside."
Freddie saw through me. he kept silent. without any words, he just. nod his head softly.
"If you are the right one please🙏 stay by her side. I know she will not be like this forever. I know she has still some of the space left for someone inside her heart. but I'm sure you have to face as hard as mountain types of difficulty."
I just stop after that. despite if I go more further towards the description of a heart the this will the outcome.
a heart is so complicated organ of our body is not only pump the blood for the purpose of transportation of food and oxygen. but also responsible for someone emotions. in the word of science, the 'love' term means it's only a chemical reaction occurs in our brain. that contains three basic parts of love, those parts are driven by a unique blend of brain chemicals. Lust is governed by both estrogen and testosterone, in both men and women. The attraction is driven by adrenaline, dopamine, and serotonin—the same chemicals that are released by exciting, novel experiences. ah! so difficult right?
(don't get this science tips in your brain if may explain what causes love chemical but doesn't define the emotions at all😑. don't get me wrong I'm telling this cause in a biology student zoology major😝. still can write things like this. ah! whatever it's not like I'm going to explain it in a scientific way. I don't want you to be confused.)
so I was saying. that Freddie should have to take steps in order to open her heart again.
he thanked me and left. I guess he understands the situation better. but he was looking kinda depressed after hearing those words. I can't do more now. despite I can only support them from the side. I hope for a better outcome. I'm not sure if it's good or bad but willing to get a good one. on the other side whatever will the outcome. I will be there for both of them stand string to supports. it the thing that friends do right?
