5. Forgiveness

I can't believe she said that, I can't believe I will say it...

But, thank you, Luz...

. . .

Days went by since we talked—since she had told me she forgave me— and those small talks after school became a routine.

Just us.

Away from the mockery and those who judge others, without stopping to think about the damage they can cause.

In school, I stopped messing with her and her friends.

Luz asked me why didn't I approached to them, that I could became a part of he group.

But I never came close.

How could I?

I was a terrible person to them... How could they forgive me?

I can't even believe Luz did...

And even if I did, even if they forgive me, I can't.

My family wouldn't approve it.

They wouldn't let it happen.
