Chapter 116. Small Rift Between Us

Sophia’s POV

My head is still tilted upward toward the large leaves of the trees. Mesmerized by its beauty and in awe as some leaves fell from its branches onto the ground. How funny and kind of poetic. As right now, Jacob Carter and I are in a bit of a falling out.

Lia was at least happy that our noses almost touched. She’s such a softie. It won’t take much to make her happy. While looking at the tree, I suddenly thought of putting myself in Carter’s shoes. To be in his point of view and understand him better this time. Not to just whine within myself.

What if it was me? The one whose little brother or little sister was killed. Then, I suddenly found out at the opening ceremony that he’s my fucking mate! Oh Goddess. I would be so fucking livid. Even more so than his reaction. He’s actually kind of a better person right now than me. Jacob’s rejection makes sense. Of course it is. His feelings and emotions are so valid. I’ll probably do the same thing too.. and worse! Yes.
