Chapter 17

April 30th

Well, the shit has hit the fan and has gone down like a lead balloon (or so to speak!) As I wrote at the end of the last entry, I decided to leave my diary upon my desk, and see if anybody read this. Tom found it. I came upstairs to put my coursework in my drawer and he was sitting there. I asked him if he was ok, and he told me he had read what had happened. I had no idea what he was going to say.there was a lot of shouting and swearing, and now he isn't talking to Joel. The ironic thing is, is that he isn't angry about the fact that I had cheated on him, but now he knows about what happened, and he's livid about it. He keeps asking why I hadn't told him before, and he don't accept the fact that I couldn't tell him. He seems to understand that is the reason why I've been distant though. He now knows everything that's gone on. I've made the decision to end things with Joel, and just remain good friends as they say. Krysti has been great through this, all that she's told me is right, and if it weren't for her, things may be a lot worse than they have been. Maybe now things can get back to normal.
