not your fault

elena 🌻:
i hate that i'm keeping this
from you. i feel that if i'm
happy, you'll be happy too.
that's why i conceal my
feelings all the time. i want
to talk to you about how i
feel but i don't want you
to worry about me. i don't
want to make everything
about me since it seems like
i'm already unintentionally
doing that.

a / n :

notice how in the beginning of
the story, zach's contact name was
"zach 🌧" and now it's "zach ☀️".
if you haven't picked up on that, it's
the symbolization of his character
development! the emoji in zach's
contact name represents that zach
is progressively becoming happier,
however, elena is not ):
