The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

The group chat fell silent. Then, someone finally said, "We thought you and Sasha had gotten back together."

Shane almost let out a bitter laugh as he typed his reply. "I've been broke. You all know she'd never take me back."

That was enough to shut everyone down.

"Well, okay then," someone texted back.

Shane opened the social platform and saw everyone going off about him and Sasha.

"Sasha's the other woman. She probably gets a kick out of stirring up trouble in other people's relationships.

"If she really cared about Shane, why didn't she say yes when he first told her how he felt? She only went after him once he was already taken."

"Shane's no saint either. The moment Sasha calls, he comes running like some lovesick puppy. He'll never find anyone half as good as Jenny!"

"Those two jerks are perfect for each other!"

"They might as well just stay together and save the rest of us the trouble!"
