“Do you think I am pathetic?”
Toria turned to look at Reyona in surprise. “What? No! Why would anyone think that?”
“I do,” Reyona said, turning to look at Toria and her eyes suddenly misted over. “Toria, I can’t...” She looked away again and fisted her hand against her mouth as she unseeingly looked at the people going in and out of the supermarket, whose parking lot she had suddenly driven into on their way back.
“Rey? Talk to me. What is going on?” Toria said in a sad tone as she placed her hand on Reyona’s shoulder. “What happened back there? Though I managed to toss that asshole the middle finger before you drove off, I still felt like a fool. Why did we suddenly leave?”
Reyona was silent for a moment, but then she turned to Toria and said it passionately.
“Because the girl was at the window watching us shove ourselves like two imbeciles,” Reyona said with pain.
“What girl? Oh,” Toria answered as she remembered.
