Chapter 8

Linda felt both ready, but also nervous about all of this. She had no idea how he would take it, and whether this would be okay.

“Alright, can I get you anything?”

“No Thomas. I just…I can’t lie to you anymore,” she said.

“What do you mean?” Thomas said.

They walked into the living room, and Linda realized he wasn’t lying about having all of this. But, it was better to just accept the life that she had, and the feelings she had for Angela now, rather than to continue down this path.

“The truth is Thomas…I haven’t been all that honest with you,” she said.

“I knew it,” he said.

“What do you mean?” Linda asked.

“You’ve been cheating on me, haven’t you?” he said.

Linda looked at him with a scoff, but then shook her head.

“No, you have that all wrong,” She said.

“What do you mean?” he asked.

She knew this would either end nicely, or she’d have to deal with the fallout from Thomas.

“I haven’t been all that honest with you. About my feelings. You might’ve noticed that well…I kind of am bad with this. You noticed a while ago that there was something wrong, and I think it’s right time I told you what it was,” Linda said.

She felt bad that it had to happen like this. He looked at her, and for a moment, he sighed.

“It’s another guy isn’t it? I had a feeling it was another man,” he said.

“What? No of course not! It’s not another guy at all. In fact, I didn’t realize the feelings that I had weren’t for a man,” she admitted.

Thomas looked at her, his head in his hands for but a moment, but when he looked up at her, his eyes widened.

“Wait, so…it’s not,” he asked.

“Not at all. The truth is Thomas, I lost a lot of weight with the help of my best friend, who I didn’t realize was in love with me. Her name’s Angela, and she was with me during my worst times. When you first rejected me I…I actually told her. I almost killed myself that night, but she was here for me when nobody else was. I can’t thank her enough for that, but I noticed that…over time I was not feeling the spark with you that I did with her,” she explained.

“I knew it,” he said.

“Wait, you knew I was…gay?” she asked.

“Well not gay, but the person that you liked was much better than I’d ever be. I had a feeling you liked women, but wasn’t sure. But, it sounds like you really like her,” he said.

“I love her Thomas. I didn’t realize until recently, when she left…she was a big part of my life,” she admitted.

“I see. Well, I’m not going to stand a chance against that,” he said jokingly.

She laughed.

“You don’t. She was my best friend throughout high school, and for so much longer. She’s always been…a big part of my life. I always just thought of it like a friend, but never like how she wanted to be. Something more.
