In Loving Memory

During extracurricular events, Harry couldn't help but notice a girl who often appeared isolated. She would withdraw from others when attempting to make friends, drawing Harry's attention due to her loneliness. Initially, driven by empathy, Harry decided to approach Debbie, despite her solitary nature. However, he was unaware that Debbie found solitude comforting. Unfortunately for Harry, his attempt at friendship was met with skepticism after an incident involving Ivy's Valentine's Day chocolate event, which had gone awry due to him. Unbeknownst to Harry, Debbie held a negative perception of him because of this. It turned out that Debbie was actually close friends with Ivy. A misunderstanding led Ivy to perceive a change in Harry's behavior towards Debbie, believing he had genuine feelings for her. This belief fueled Ivy's confidence that Harry cared deeply for Debbie. However, a shocking revelation followed – Harry had developed feelings for his own friend, Grace, who was now in a relationship with Harry's best friend, a mutual friend. Both Harry and Debbie were left heartbroken as their hopes were shattered. As time passed and they entered their senior year, Harry confessed to Ivy about his lingering thoughts about Debbie from the previous year. He was ready to address their connection, but by then, Debbie had already taken a significant step, openly declaring her love for Eric in front of everyone. The question remained: would Debbie's declaration of love finally find reciprocation, or would it remain unrequited this time around?
