True Love Waits

Chapter 427 She's Not Mad

'People always say "don't introduce your boyfriend and your bestie." I thought it was a joke. But now I know why-I'm a bad bestie.' Thinking of this, Kasie dissolved into tears, sobs wracking her lovely body.

Debbie was startled. She decided to wrap up what she was doing. "Gotta go, Ruby. Call you later."

She stood up, walked over to Kasie and asked anxiously, "Kasie, what's wrong? Are you okay?"

Kasie shook her head. 'She's always there for me. But I...' Her weeping grew into hysterical cries. "Debbie... Tomboy... Boo...hoo..."

The last time Kasie cried like this was when Emmett passed away. After that, though she would cry every time she visited Emmett's grave, it was nothing like when he just passed on. This scared the shit out of Debbie. "What happened, Kasie? Tell me!" she demanded.

"Tomboy. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry..." Kasie clung tightly to Debbie, apologizing to her again and again.

'I'm a bitch! I kissed her husband behind her back,' she thought.

"Just tell me what happened," Debbie said while stroking Kasie's back comfortingly. She was sure it couldn't have been so bad, but she wanted to hear it from her.

Kasie wiped the tears from her face, and chose to just straight up tell Debbie the truth. "Debbie, I... Mr. Wen... He...kissed me. I'm so sorry. I swear it won't happen again." "That's it?" Debbie's reaction made Kasie's mouth drop.

"Yeah." With that, she snuffled, trying to keep the snot from running out of her nose.

'Why isn't she pissed?' she wondered. "I'm so sorry. If you want to yell and scream, go ahead. You can hit me if you want—"

"Kasie!" Debbie interrupted Kasie, who was visibly agitated. Kasie was finding it very hard to breathe, gasping and weeping at the same time.
