“I
bet even you would react the same way if someone was unfaithful to you. Once
trust is broken, it’s hard to get it back,” she tells Ethan.
“Sorry,
Amy, I didn’t know,” he says, staring at me with a look in his eye that I can’t
decipher. “It was probably a bad choice from the start. If you pick the right
person, you don’t have to worry about them flirting with someone else.”
I
feel tears welling in my eyes, face turning hot with embarrassment or anger, I
can’t tell. Is he just trying to provoke me, or is he really saying I was an
idiot to trust him in the first place? When I’m sure I’ve got the tears under
control, I return my gaze to meet Ethan’s.
“That
certainly was the case,” I say, trying not to sound upset. “Thank you for
reminding me. It’s very noble of you.”
