Her words caught me off guard, and I realized that there was more to Linda and Timothy’s relationship than I had initially thought. The shock of the revelation left me momentarily speechless.
“I–I didn’t know that Timothy was seeing someone,” I finally managed to say, my voice slightly shaky.
Linda looked a bit surprised at my response. “Oh, I’m sorry. We haven’t been together for very long, and we’ve been keeping it low–key.”
“No, it’s okay. I’m just surprised,” I replied, trying to compose myself.
Linda smiled warmly. “Thank you for understanding. People are usually territorial when it comes to Timothy.”
I shook my head, trying to dispel any misunderstandings as well as the shock that still lingered. “No, we’re just neighbors.”
Linda looked at me with a sympathetic smile. “Oh, good. We wanted to keep it private for a while. We met on a social networking site and have been seeing each other for a few months now.”
Hearing that they had been physically involved for months felt like a punch to the gut. A part of me felt envious of Linda, as much as that emotion stung. Another part of me also wondered how long Linda would last, considering Timothy’s track record.
I had always doubted that Timothy had truly changed from his player ways, but this was a shocking confirmation. Everything that had happened between us seemed like a foolish dream. One where he waxed about how sorry he was and how much he cared about me.
I had wanted to care too, but reality had its way of shattering expectations. If only I had kept my distance, the way I had planned to from the start. Yet I couldn’t get those striking eyes, the warmth of his touch, nor tenderness of his words out of my mind.
As we continued to talk, Linda expressed how much Timothy meant to her, and I couldn’t help but see the genuine affection in her eyes. It was clear that their connection ran deep, and that unsettled me. Still, Linda’s warmth and kindness.

It felt strange discussing him with his current lover, but Linda was understanding and genuinely interested in knowing more about his past.
