Dumped My First Love Outside the Dorm

I break up with my childhood sweetheart, Daphne Hogan, right outside my dorm.

She doesn't even look up from her phone. "Just because I ditched you for him at dinner the other night?"

"Yes."

Daphne figures I'm just throwing a tantrum. Her fingers fly across her screen as she replies to a freshman's texts.

Whatever message he sends makes her rush off.

Before leaving, she gives me a fond, exasperated sigh. "Don't be silly. Get some sleep tonight. You have a hiking drill tomorrow. I'll be there."

Daphne walks away without looking back, completely missing the finality in my eyes.
