ARIS'S POV
I was shocked to see the gifts Nico got for me all because I was going to see his parents, it was a beautiful flower dress, purple and very radiant. I fell in love with it at first sight and the gold necklaces was amazing. But all these things were unnecessary.
I could not put myself to receive all these gift when I know what type of a person I am and how I was going to betray him very soon. I felt bitter and sad, tears were threatening to fall from my eyes because of the pain I felt but I fought it. I could not let my weakness show, I could not let him see right through me, I needed to hide my flaws from him if I wanted something good to happen to him.
I was a problem already and I would only bring more problem to him if we continued like this. I did not deserve to love him and definitely did not deserve all this love and affection he was showering on me. It needed to stop, it was for the good.
