Someone is hiding from my mate

I didn't think her name would stay etched in my mind forever. After what happened two years ago, I couldn't get her out of my head. It was my fault, and I still regret what I said. But at that point, I was already sick of girls hitting on me. And they really went crazy, especially on my birthday. They tried to win my heart by giving me expensive gifts and confessed their love through them. That's why I mistook Eliely for someone else.
What hurt me the most was what she said after I apologized."It's true that I liked you. But you don't need to worry about me anymore. Because I don't like you anymore."I felt as if someone had stabbed me in the heart. After that, I tried to talk to her again as a friend. But she ignored me and avoided most of us. Sometimes I unconsciously look for her in the crowd, but I hardly ever see her at school because she's been keeping her distance from us on purpose.
I still kept her gift with me, still in its box. I couldn't throw it away, and it was too precious to use. I had to admit that I was a little happy when her seventeenth birthday was approaching. Because she was supposed to move into the dorm with us. I knew a lot of guys were looking forward to it.
