He opened his mouth, no doubt to try and sweet-talk his way out of this, but I held up my hand, cutting him short.
"No, let me finish. You've had so many chances, and you've squandered every single one of them. You've hurt me, you've hurt my mother, and you've made it clear time and time again that I'm not a priority in your life."
I was done being the weak, submissive girlfriend who let Kieran walk all over her. "I deserve better than this, Kieran. I deserve someone who will love me, who will support me, who will be there for me no matter what,”

“Don’t pay any attention to Selena's little outburst. She's just putting on a show, you know. Trying to manipulate you into feeling sorry for her."
