One summer, Kit went in a camp. She was
heartbroken with her previous relationship with Benedict. She joined the summer
camp to, at least try to heal, meet new people and start a new life without
Ben. While in the camp, she joined different activities like bonfire where you
can throw those things that someone gave you that keep you from moving on. Some
physical activities like team building. While in the middle of game, she
stumbled then a boy helped him up. He is Bernard. They became friends, they
talked about the problems of each other and why did they come in this camp.
Bernard was heartbroken as well with her ex-girlfriend, Abigail. It was 1 year
ago since the break up but he thinks that he wasn’t fully recovered about Abi,
while Kit and Ben broke up 3 months ago. They started to get to know each
other, shared each other’s stories about life.
They go along well. They smile, laugh, eat,
do things in the camp together. They sooner developed feelings for each other
in that short time. Until the last day of the camp arrived. They are 3-hour
drive to each other because they live in different towns. They exchanged
numbers to get in touch because they are a thing now. After one week from the
camp, Kit and Bernard are nonstop texting and calling each other. Until, Kit
decided to surprise Bernard. She went from her town to Bern’s town, drove 3
hours and bought gifts for him. When she reached Bernard’s house, she saw
Bernard and a girl kissing, from a window. She thought that maybe that’s
Abigail, his ex-girlfriend. She was so hurt, she thinks that she is a fool for
believing to a one-summer love story.
She get back in her car, start the car while
crying and drive fast home. She doesn’t respond to Bernard’s texts and calls
because she thinks that Bernard is just using her to fill in something in
Bernard’s life. Since Kit is not responding to any of Bernard’s calls and
messages, he decided to go to Kit’s house. He knocked in the door and when Kit
opened the door, Bernard saw her with big black eye bags, messy hair in her
pajamas. Kit was shocked that she slammed the door. Bernard was clueless, what
is happening, he asked himself. So he kept on knocking until Kit opened the
door again and let Bernard get in her house. She told everything she saw and
Bernard was shocked.
Bernard explained himself that Abigail went
to his house unexpectedly and telling Bernard that the wedding of Abigail and
her fiancé was cancelled because Abi’s fiancé cheated. Abi went to Bern’s house
and she said that she still love Bernard and tried to kiss him. That is the
moment that Kit saw, but Bernard pushed Abi away and told her that he is with
someone now.
Bernard apologized to Kit because she
misunderstood the situation and apologized as well because Abi kissed him. Kit
realized that she wrong as well because she doesn’t confront Bernard
immediately to know his side about what she saw. They became okay and forgave
each other. After two months, Bernard finally made his decision that he is
moving in Kit’s town near her. Same building that Kit is staying. Then,
everything got better.
We have to trust our partner every time. We
have to listen first to anything they have to say and don’t decide when you’re
angry and carries a heavy heart. We must not conclude. Having a healthy
relationship is maintaining communication. You have to communicate to your
partner about anything that is going on; how you feel, what you feel and why
are you feeling that. Learn to listen, understand and trust your partner.
Communication is always the key.
