Done with the burdensome depth of feeling, I just wanted some superficial happiness. We both knew the split was coming and we talked it over. Long story short, we both knew a breakup was for the best, and we split just before school got out for the summer. Right before the split, I tried to fit in with the popular partiers. Changed the way I acted, shut out deep feelings, and didn’t talk about me and Lucy, and about how we were pretty much done. But I didn’t feel myself around any of the people I wished to be friends with, though, I just wanted to party, drink, be a jerk, whatever it took to get the upper hand on some shallow excitement. God, on the other hand, had different plans. My one friend in that popular circle, who basically served as my one gateway into that party scene, ironically began dating Lucy almost immediately after the split.
