"........ and she said we were really in love."
I froze. "So you said?" I asked, nervous but not hoping in any way.
He looked up, straight at me, and my breathing slowed for that bare second because he had the strangest look in his eyes. I wanted to turn away from him to avoid that face. I couldn't.
"I said that we were."
I don't know how to feel that very moment. Euphoric? Angry? Nonchalance, maybe. Whatever.
