Moving On

Coming into class on Monday, Ethan tries to put on a brave face on, knowing that he will face Theresa. As he looks up to where she normally sits, he is surprised to see that Theresa is not there. Looking around the room, Ethan notices that Theresa is no where to be found.

"I wonder if she's sick today." He thinks to himself, as he prepares for class.

After class is over, Ethan is still surprised that Theresa never showed up. Walking toward the library after class, Ethan looks to the quad and notices a girl that resembles Theresa sitting under the tree. "Do I go to her and see if it's Theresa?" He thinks to himself.

Coming up with a decision, Ethan makes his way to the quad, and as he draws closer, realizes that it is Theresa sitting under the tree.

"Hey, Theresa." He says slowly.

Theresa looks up from reading her book, "oh, hi, Ethan."

"You feeling okay? You weren't in class today."

"Oh, I'm fine. I switched to another section of the chemistry class today. Schedule conflicts."

"Theresa, are you mad at me or something?"

"No, why would you say that?"

"Because it's like you're avoiding me like I'm the plague."

"Well, Mr. CRANE, I didn't want to bother you that's all."

Ethan stands back as he sees how mad Theresa looks. "God, she does know that I'm a Crane...this is a nightmare, this wasn't supposed to happen." "Theresa.."

"No, Ethan, really, it's just fine. Truth had to come out sometime. I'm just glad it's now, rather than later. If you'll excuse me, I have a class to go to."

"Theresa, I'm sorry." Ethan yells out.

Stopping in her tracks, Theresa looks back at Ethan. "Sometimes, sorry isn't enough, Ethan." With that, she wonders off.

"Dear God, how am I going to get Theresa to believe me? I'm starting to develop feelings for her, and now that she knows the truth, she'll never want to be with me.."

Meanwhile

"Dear God, what do I do? Ethan lied to me! He never told me the truth that he was a Crane. Can I still want him even though he lied to me? Please God, tell me what to do..."
