A petite girl sat in the middle of her blue queen sized bed, cross-legged. In front of her lay a white male t-shirt, a red male sweatshirt, a small ring and a heart pendant. She picked up the ring, running her finger over the small band. A knock startled her into dropping the small item into her lap, it landing on her ankle. Her door opened, revealing a busty brunette. "Belle?" The brunette questioned. Belle waved her in, "Hi, Kali." She responded as her friend sat on the edge of the big bed.
"What's this about?" Her friend asked quietly. Belle smiled sadly, picking up the ring once again and dropping it into Kali's hands. "Give this back to Tristin." Her once happy face saddened of her now ex-boyfriend. The girl who currently sat beside her was her ex-boyfriend's current girlfriend. The ring was a gift as well as the pendant. The sweatshirt was borrowed and never returned. It hit Belle hard when she found out Kali and Tristin were dating, given that Belle had been in love with Tristin for 5 years. Kali began to shake her head.
"They're yours!" Belle closed Kali's fingers around the ring.
"I don't." She paused, "No, I can't keep them anymore. They are a symbol of him loving me. Give them back to him. He gave them to me and I no longer want them." Belle traced the heart pendant. "I can't bear to throw them out." She continued. "So I'm giving them back." She paused again. "If I keep them, I will never move on. It's my way of letting go." Thick silence filled the air between the two girls.
"I should go." Kali stood, grabbing the items off the bed and stuffing them in her bag. "Bye, Belle."
