Chapter 72: Reminder (2)
***
I hate being vulnerable. I feel frustrated whenever that happens in front of people… Even now as I talk to Den on the phone, I can’t help but feel pathetic for over sharing in the way I always do…
“Is Alex there with you?” Den asks in obvious concern. I quickly dismiss it as I reply to him in a cold manner.
“No, we broke up a long time ago…” As those words leave my lips I feel a sense of loss that I didn’t up until that point. There was no point to me being sad about a break up that happened a while ago. Yet now that I was reminded of it, it was difficult not to feel at least a little bit frustrated…
“Oh…” Den’s voice on the other end of the line was quiet. I feel it more than ever, my friend’s concern for me… He’s worried but doesn’t want to make me more
