The Fate of a Rom-Com Secondary Character

I sometimes think about the secondary character of a rom com film
The ones who love the girl or the guy with all their heart but are always left behind because the writers did not want that
I think about their eyes,
That reek of love for the protagonist every time they look at them
The only thing these eyes want to see is the protagonist happy and therefore they don’t even cry even if they want to when the protagonist leave them for the other protagonists
I think of the lips
Which smile the brightest when they are around that girl or guy
But, can’t even say a word at goodbyes
Because all this long all they practiced is to say yes
I think of those hands
That know when to hold and when to let go
They will never let the protagonist fall
But, will also never stop them from leaving
I think of the heart
Which will beat for the girl or the guy
Which will hold them intact
But, which will also know the fate and live with it, with his/her image intact in there
I sometimes wonder what would it be like to be a secondary character
I wonder what would I do if I had to choose
What would you do?
