I am on a break between classes. I brought my computer to school since I'm meeting with Alex later. And I couldn't stop thinking about this during class so I'll try to process further.

I feel so deceived by Ruby. I fell for her, like Alex did. Now it all makes sense - his being irritated by her, her checking up on him, her trying to control which trips he went on and what he did while on them. He's just her little pawn, or at least she wants him to be. When he's not responding she dials up the flirt, trying to remind him of their history. It's sickening.

It's also sickening that I missed all of this up till now. I missed her overt flirtations and not-so-subtle insinuations, trying to give her the benefit of the doubt since she's the school director and I expected she would be responsible.

And also because I wanted to, because I thought she was my friend. But now, remembering what she has done and said, how she warned me about him, I don't think I could stand being around her. I know there are two sides to every story, but what Alex said makes so much sense with everything else I've noticed.

I saw her this morning and didn't even say hi. I felt like I couldn't say anything to her. But I can't continue like this. I need to fix it.
