I'm Alone

I’m Alone

In the book ‘Forever & Always His’ written by Alicia Marbles, an extreme thing happens that changes the relationship between Everet, the male main character, and  Riley, the female main character. Something huge happens that causes this change. It all happened one Tuesday morning when Riley had been having a bad day. She called Everett to see if he could go out to lunch with her because she needed some support, to  vent to. Everett had already made plans with his mother for lunch but Everett did not care, his #1 goal was to be there for Riley through everything and anything. So he ditched lunch with his mother to go to a Café with Riley. While Riley was venting to Everet , all of a sudden he got a phone call. That tarred him apart from inside and out.

Riley never could forget that day, the day where Evert’s mother had died in a car crash. Ever since that day Riley’s world felt like it was all crumbling down. She couldn’t walk through the bright red and black hallways heading to her 2^nd period without Everet making rude comments about her to his friends. Their relationship hadn’t been the same ever since the Crash. Honestly she didn’t even know what got into him. But the thing is, Everet thought it was all Riley’s fault. What Everet didn’t know Is that it was his OWN girlfriend who had killed his mother.

The resolution to this Essay is that Evert started talking to Riley again little by little. They started talking a little more. Hanging out a little more. Without no doubt Evert started realizing he never lost his love for Riley, it was just hiding somewhere deep in his heart. Riley on the other side , never really got over him. She still felt the way she had been feeling for about 2 years now.
