Chapter 6

*Richie*
- hey Bev
- hey Rich how are you?
- fine ? What do you mean
- I mean Eddie ?
- what about him ? - i asked not knowing where she was going with the questions
- so you're ignoring the problem
- what problem ?
- that he has a girlfriend ?
- but i'm fine with it, he can do whatever he wants with his life
- I don't think you truly believe that
- why  would you think that ?
- because you're in love with him ?
- the thing is Bev i think i was in love with him
- what changed ?
- spending time apart seeing him again talk to him again made me realize that the most important thing for me it's his friendship beyond a relationship so i'm cool with it
- you really are ?
- yeah i think i even might be ready to date other guys
- but like relationship or just as rebounds
- I don't i think i'll just see how it goes
- then i'm happy for you Rich i just want you to be happy
- me too Bev and i hope that this Ben guy is good for you too
- he really is and i would like you to meet him if you'd like maybe we could even do a double date
- I like that idea what about tonight
- how do you even gonna find a guy to ask out for tonight ?
- have you met me ?
- yeah sorry my bad- she said laughing - good luck then and see you tonight
