Little friend? Did he really just refer to her as his little friend? Jade asked herself irritably as she followed both men. It was quite obvious that he enjoyed annoying her. He seemed to know the best ways to annoy her.
She had only wanted to hang out with him because she genuinely felt grateful that he had come around. Spending the last couple of days with him was the most fun she had allowed herself to enjoy since her cheating ex-boyfriend died.
She had withdrawn from everyone, and even though she tried to sound like she was fine while talking with her family over the phone, she had been very far from okay. She barely ate well nor took care of herself. She had buried herself in her job and overworked herself until he had come along and forced her to come out of her shell and communicate with him every day.
