"Back then, I didn't know why he avoided me. Before I realized my true feelings, I didn't care about them. Andrew avoided me indirectly but was always there when I needed him. When I realized my feelings and tried to approach him, he blocked me completely."
"Why did he do it?"
"I wish I know."
"Moni. He loves you. I can see it. But―"
"But that's not the affection I want."
Anxia no longer continued her sentence and shifted the topic. "If you don't mind, may I know why you were seeing someone else if you are already in love with Andrew?"
"Andrew told me to. He said the way I felt then was temporary and a habit. Maybe if I try to hook up with another guy, I'll get distracted and fall in love with that person."
"Did it work?"
"Of course not. I tried to end it, but but my ex didn't want to break up."
"Then?"
"Then I admit that I love someone else. But he was relentless―he even said he would make me forget about Andrew."
