“What kind of a man are you?”

“It’s none of your business. Please leave before…” As Lisa was about to finish her sentence, Tia just stared her right in the eyes, almost as if she would take her soul if she didn’t stay silent.

“Lisa, leave us, please.” I asked Lisa to leave because I didn’t want her to be present for this. I didn’t want her to see a side of me that she had not signed up for. As soon as Lisa exited the office, I knew she was going downstairs to light a cigarette.

“Tia, don’t concern yourself.” I could see her oozing anger at this point. I was afraid the situation might turn violent.

“How the fuck can I not concern myself when you and your brother have completely trampled over my best friend’s life? I thought your brother was an asshole, but honestly, you are much worse.”

“Oh, fuck.” I knew at that point that Brian had been lying about everything. I knew that I was hurting Erika for absolutely no reason. “What are you talking about? What does Brian have to do with anything?” In my mind, Brian wasn’t to blame for anything. It was Erika who used him.

“Are you serious? You really don’t know? I think you are the reason that your brother is a spoiled brat.” I didn’t want to waste any more time, so I abruptly asked Tia to tell me everything.

“You know how on that Friday they were supposed to go on a trip for her birthday right?” I nodded.

“You know that she thought they were just friends, and she saved up and worked overtime to make sure she would be able to go on the trip?” That I didn’t know, and my face made that clear.

Tia continued on, though. “I bet Brian didn’t tell you that when he told her that he was in love with her, she told him she only thought of him as a friend, he threatened her. He threatened to ruin her, he threatened to make her life a living hell. He literally told her that his family was very important, and they would make her life very difficult. I guess he wasn’t lying.”

Brian hadn’t told me any of this, and I was getting angry. I didn’t like being lied to. I wasn’t just an asshole for what I did to Erika, I was also a hypocrite because I lied to her.

I knew I had to fix things with Erika, so I rushed out of the office to go find her. As I approached the door to the bathroom, Tia told me she’d already left.

Not knowing what to do, other than fix things immediately, I asked Tia, “Do you think she went home?”

Tia refused to answer me at first, telling me she wasn’t going to let me play with Erika’s feelings anymore. I suppose she was right, I had hurt Erika, but what Tia didn’t know, was that I was falling in love with Erika.

“Please, answer me, Tia. I promise, I won’t hurt her anymore.
