We drove to Lancaster’s mall almost in silence, except when Kylie informed me that she was going to text Razor that she was okay because, after that whole incident with that stalker, he would lose his fucking mind. Which, he would.
Greg’s words just kept playing over in my head. Bronx was engaged, left some poor woman at the altar and never to see her again.
We had to be too good to be true. This wasn't even a time that I went looking for information, this time, it found me and smacked me in the fucking face.
Kylie and I sat on the bench, eating Auntie Anne's pretzels, when she finally said, “Okay, worst case scenario, he has commitment issues. So you guys can take it slow, and when he's ready, he’ll be ready.”
I shook my head as I thought about all the places my mind went when he said all of those sweet things. I thought of a wedding, babies, and everything he wanted for me. He said that, but maybe that's why he wouldn't commit because he wouldn't be the man to deliver it. Maybe he was trying to warn me, but why lead me on? That is what kept making me angry.
“Shay?”
“Hmm,” I mumbled.
“You're scaring me.”
I turned to her and said, “You know, I never said this, but I understand why Lori left. I get it. She was publicly humiliated by a man who gave zero fucks about her and made that known after she made it known that she gave every fuck about him. That is the most bone crushing thing that could happen to anyone.” I nodded my head and said, “I get it.”
“Shay, that's not what happened here.” Kylie tried to clarify.
“Oh, but it is. The very same thing. He's not saying it to the whole town of Manor, but it is the same thing. We put our feelings out there, other people see it, and it’s like the damn joke is on you.” I shook my head. “I’m tired, Kylie. I don’t want to do this anymore?”
“What are you saying?”
“I’m saying, I can’t handle Bronx breaking my heart. I’m telling you. Girl.” The tears started running down my face. “Why do you think I worked so hard to stay away from him? He’s my kryptonite. I’m scared of my feelings for him. You and Razor didn’t know each other. It’s different for you. We knew each other and worked together in a way and were associated in the same circles. I liked him, we had sex and then a four year nothing, then he comes, sweeps me off my feet and now this. I can’t.”
The tears started flowing down my face faster.
“Let’s go,” I said and stood up.
“Wait, Shay. Let’s just think this through, okay?”
“Kylie, love you like a sister, but I’m tired. I won't be standing at someone's alter waiting to be publicly humiliated again. Fuck him.” I shook my head. “And I don't want to talk about it anymore.”
The scorching tears continued to roll down my face as I tried to convince myself it was all a dream and it never happened.
