That day, I told you to break up with her. My voice was quiet, too quiet, as if the words meant nothing.
When I got home, I was coming back from the dirty job you told me to do.
she was standing outside, waiting for you.
She smiled every time a car passed, as if hoping it was you.
She dressed up, just for a simple dinner with you. Little did she know that everything was changing within those walls. Little did she know that with just a few quiet words, I was asking you to shatter the fragile happiness she was clinging to.
It's a good thing you didn't ruin her day.
I saw her standing there, dressed nicely in the cold, so I told her to wait inside and I'd wait at the door instead. But she refused.
She said she wanted to see you the moment you got out of the car.
Damn it, I was telling him her love story with him.
Anyway, I stood and waited with her and asked her if she loved you that much.
She said yes, because he's nice.
I laughed and said it was good that you two were still on good terms.
Then I asked her if she knew I was his only friend in school.
Yes, Michael told me.
Damn it, I was surprised you talked about me to her.
"He said he moved away early and saw you again at university. "She said
Yes, on graduation day.
She laughed and said it was a strange coincidence.
I asked her if she was happy to know me and Michael.
She said yes.
I asked her why she didn't ask anything about Michael's past or mine.
She said that neither of us had asked because we knew it would hurt her.
I told her that I could tell her if she wanted, but she'd look at us differently.
She told me, "Say it if you want."
I told her that I told you today to break up with her because of the past, so before he comes, you should think carefully.
