ANNA’S POVI stood there frozen, my mouth open, tears sliding down my face before I could stop them. My chest felt like it had been ripped apart. My fingers went numb, my bag slipping from my hand to the floor.For a moment, I could not breathe. My heart pounded painfully in my ears.My boyfriend was kneeling, proposing to another woman, not just any woman, my best friend once upon a time.The same person who held me when James and I fought, who came to my apartment at midnight with ice cream and encouraged me not to give up on James. The same woman who laughed with me, shared secrets with me and I even took as my own sister.. Melissa.I wanted to scream James’ name, to ask him why, to remind him of the nights we stayed awake working, of the promises he whispered to me in the dark, of the dreams we built together.But my voice was gone. The crowd erupted in cheers. His mother clapped, smiling proudly. Cameras flashed. People screamed in excitement.And me?No! I couldn’t take it."
