"Hey dude, are you sure about this?"

my friend David asks me

during lunch break.

I look at him

blankly

and raise an eyebrow.

"About what?"

David glares

"About breaking up with Rose."

My jaw clenches

from the mention

of her name.

I want to ignore

David's question

but I can't.

"I'm fine with it," I say

my teeth clenched

to contain

my irritation

to myself.

David looks skeptical

but doesn't

say more

to anger me.

Everyone knows

very well

that I don't like

talking about Rose.

I believed in her.

I never knew

an angel like her

would cheat on me

for an ugly guy.

I eat inside

in the cafeteria

with my friends

like I had been

before Rose came here.

I think

she's eating outside

in the quad

with Anna

and Ms. Stella.

I don't know

why

they would still

hang out with Rose.

I feel something stiff

but soft

push against my arm

and I look

and see Alissa

her tan face

and red lips

pulled into a seductive smile

as she rubs her cleavage

against the arm

that I don't use

to hold my pizza.

"Hey baby," Alissa says lowly

her voice a practiced 

slutty moan.

"Did you eat, Lissa?" I ask her

wondering if she didn't

she would be kind

and give me her pizza.

I was starving.
