Seventy-one: MTOABB

MTOABB

"Why are you standing outside in the cold?" Jordan asks as she and Cassandra approach me.

"I'm waiting for my sister to come fetch me."

"Rossita, are you okay?" Cass asks with worry in her eyes. The tears hadn't stopped flowing even though I told it to. I didn’t want her sympathy because I knew it would be coming with an ‘I told you so’. She wouldn’t be wrong, she did tell me so but when have I ever listened. It's pathetic really, do I not want a happy ending with a guy that’s not just perfect on paper?

“I’m going to be fine, Cass, seriously,” I tried to assure her but she didn’t buy it yet she didn’t push any further.

“We can’t leave you here outside in the cold, so please come inside while you wait,” Jordan persists.

“Chloe will be here any minute,” I tell her.

“I will stay out here with her,” Cass tells Jordan who enters the house through the front door.

“What did he do?” She asked me as we both stood there.
