Chapter 44: Pain in the ass His face remains calm and cold. Yet I still catch a fleeting glimpse of panic and disbelief passing through his eyes. “Surprised?” I sneer and take a moment to enjoy the look on his face. “I thought you knew… since you already brought your new girlfriend shopping today.” His face drops. “For the second time, Valerie is not my girlfriend.” “Just stop lying, OK? If she’s not your girlfriend, then what are you really? Why on earth are you guys together all the time?? No forget it… I don’t want to know.” I wave my hand dismissively.

He suddenly stands up. Taken aback, I raise my head to look at him and find his face dark and sullen.

“Are you asking me to cut connections with all my female friends?” he questions me in a strained tone. “Is this what you want? Because I can do that. If only you could stop talking to Alex!”

Even though I was mad at him, I was able to talk to him in a calm manner. But these words enrage me instantly. Anger explodes in my head and the next thing I know I’m kneeling on my bed, pointing a finger at him and yelling. “Are you kidding me?!! You know perfectly well that Valerie is not just a normal female friend! She likes you and you’ve been fucking her for god know how long! Is it really too much to ask you to stay away from her now that we are dating? And why do you keep dragging Alex into this conversation? We are just friends, unlike you and Valerie!”

“But he’s the reason you decided to break up with me, isn’t it?” he raises his voice and starts yelling back at me too. “If you don’t care for him at all, why do you keep getting mad at me for an outsider?”

“Oh my god… Eason! I-“I’m too pissed to say a full sentence. “I’m not mad at you because of him! I’m mad at you because you try to manipulate my life! You didn’t respect me at all! Don’t you get it?”
