The Third Party

Chapter 7:

"I don't give a flick about our friendship or what people may think. I care about you! And I care what happens to us now. J do me a favor why is your suitcase hiding behind the door quite some time now and you didn't even had the decency to say something to me.

Anna, how can you say something like this to me. "I can't be your friend if that is how it should be. Yes, J, you can be my friend but not husband material. Now we won't have to worry about anything. I promise. So let's break up and let everything just be forgotten." "And how long do you think that's going to last? How long before people find out and start spreading rumors about us? About how you're gay?!"

That's not going to happen. If that well the case we wouldn't be having this conversation right now."

It doesn't matter who knows; it doesn't matter how long we keep quiet! You're going to get teased! People will talk behind our backs! I'll never be able to relax knowing everyone will be gossiping about me! They'll always be telling other people what they saw or heard!"

"No they won't!" "How are you so sure?!" We'll get out of here tomorrow and start our life together! Together we'll take care of ourselves and nobody else! We'll be safe and happy!"

"If you keep talking like that, we're never gonna to get anywhere. Let's just make up and forget about this whole situation." "NO!" Jeremy shouted.

Anna gasped loudly at the the sudden outburst. Anna's eyes started watering and running down escaping her eyes at what the full had unforsaken pleasantries he just told her in a rude manner. Anna said quietly, "fine, then." In a fit of rage she threw her hands up and quickly left the room. She closed the door quietly behind her.

Anna packed her suitcase with everything, walked out the door and said, "good-bye!"

She stood by the stairs and wiped away her tears. Anna said to herself, "Be a strong woman." She tried not to cry in front of her ex-boyfriend Jeremy.
