Under His Protection

“Hey babe” Josh replies, embracing and kissing her at the same time 


“Why are you here?” Jasmine asks, almost irritated at his gestures 


“To congratulate you of course, I’m sorry I’m late” Josh says apologetically 


“I had plans for us babe, but I’m so sorry, I’ve got to go attend to a few things” he tells her, texting on his phone 


Jasmine stares at him without uttering a word, watching him fumble the device and persist with excuses. She wondered why his behavior still made her feel this hurt, wasn’t she supposed to be used to it by now? She didn’t care what he had to do with his life and she was certain he didn’t either, but he could at least pretend.
